About this property

Cosy cottage in the beautiful Brecon Beacons National Park

Ramblers Rest is perfect for a break in the beautiful Brecon Beacons National Park. Grade II listed, this self catering cottage nestles in the oldest street in Crickhowell, and is only 2 minutes walk from the River Usk, famous for its excellent fishing and wildlife.

The cottage is centrally heated and offers well appointed accommodation, but retains the charm and peaceful atmosphere of its mid-1800s origin.

Whether you are walkers, anglers, outdoor pursuits enthusiasts, nature lovers, or just want to enjoy a retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life, Ramblers Rest is the ideal starting point.

The cottage sleeps up to four people, with one double and one twin-bedded room (with 3ft beds). The sitting room has comfortable seating for four, and includes a television and DVD player, plus radio/CD.

There is a fully equipped kitchen with cooker, microwave oven, washing machine, dining table and chairs. Walk-in pantry with fridge/freezer and plenty of storage space.

Bathroom on the ground floor, with wash-basin, WC, bath with shower over.

We have provided a good selection of maps and local guide books for visitors to use, plus quite a few board games for those rainy days!

Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Lovely cottage

This is a lovely cottage, and very well equipped with everything we needed for our stay over Easter weekend. We had long, busy days out and the cottage was the perfect place to relax at the end of the day. We were lucky with the weather, so we could enjoy the secluded garden too. Thanks Christina, I would love to stay here again sometime.
