Brecon Beacons bed & breakfast accommodation

We are situated just 5 minutes walk from the centre of Brecon, right in the middle of the Brecon Beacons National Park. Brecon is a market town with all the basics, plus an amazing Jazz festival in August. The rest of the year it is ideal for walking the Beacons and Black Mountains or riding some of the best mountain bike trails in the UK.

Our accommodation is not fancy but we have comfy beds, proper down duvets and pillows, and plenty of hot water. Our cafe serves home cooked food most days, using seasonal, local and organic ingredients where possible.

In the evening guests can use the café for relaxing, playing games etc. We have sofas by the log fire, books and magazines to read and a fully licensed bar. Takeaway meals are also available from the café.

We both had a dream about running some sort of lodge/chalet for mountainbikers for a long time. We have tried to offer the sort of place we would have wanted to find, for a snack, a meal, or a long weekend.
We are in one of the best areas for mountain biking and hill walking in the UK with the Brecon Beacons, Black Mountains and Fforest Fawr within 10 miles. The Cambrian Mountains and some of the least explored parts of Wales, are about 40 minutes drive away. We can advise on routes and the best picnic spots!

We have several hundred kms of routes from the door including the famous "gap" route, Sarn Helen (an old stony Roman road), and the start or finish of the Taff Trail, 50 miles from Cardiff. You can also continue on the Lon Las Cymru, the trans Wales Sustrans cycle route, through the Cambrians and on to Snowdonia. 

Biking accommodation: We have secure bike storage and can arrange bike rental. We can supply routes, maps and guide books for local trails and can provide packed lunches/thermoses. There is a hose and drying space for gear.

Walking accommodation: We can supply routes, maps and guide books for local trails and can provide packed lunches/thermoses. Guided walks are on offer from the National Park on Sundays.

You can also kayak on the River Wye and fish for trout and salmon on the Usk.

We have two double rooms and one twin room, designed to be simple in décor but provide quality where it matters. We have good mattresses, down pillows and duvets, and Egyptian cotton bedlinen.

Bedroom 1 is at the front, a large room with a double bed and a folding quality single bed. It also has a sofa and radio/CD player. It has a private bathroom next door with a powerful shower, washbasin and toilet. Bedroom 2 has a double bed and a washbasin and CD player/radio. Bathroom 2 (shared with room 3) has a powerful shower and full bath, as well as plenty of drying space.

Bedroom 3 at the back of the house has two single beds, and shares bathroom 2. For families, rooms 2 and 3 hired together are a good option as they are next door and share the bathroom between them.

Family friendly: Bedroom 1 can be let as a family room, for a couple and up to 1 small child (£55) as there is just room for a folding bed. Larger families, or those with older children can rent rooms 2 and 3 for £90, or all three rooms for £130 per night.
