Walnut Tree Barn is very spacious and very well equipped. We found it to be comfortable. Nice bedrooms, three out of the five have great views. The location is ideal for many spots in the Brecon Beacons. Good parking and lovely owners.

We were a group of 8 staying over Christmas - It was a really lovely venue and in the most picturesque setting. The owners were friendly and welcoming and available at all times should we have needed them. The kitchen equipment was excellent and the special festive touches, with decorated tree included, was a real treat. We had a really lovely stayRead more. Hide

Wonderful cottage which is fully accessible downstairs for anyone using a wheelchair or with mobility problems. The cottage is spacious and large enough to find a quiet corner if you are a large group. Lovely to have ensuite facilities in each bedroom to save queuing for the bathroom. Owners are welcoming and on site in case of any problems or querRead moreies. We will definitely go again. A great base for sightseeing in the Brecon Beacons and surrounding area. Hide

The photos of this property dont really do it justice. There is so much space, it was immaculately clean, having all bedrooms with en suite bathrooms was fabulous and the location was perfect. Its ideal for two families holidaying together, we had such a wonderful holiday. There are lots of beautiful walks from the house and many interesting placesRead more to visit within a 45 minutes drive radius. Owners were lovely and the little garage at Glasbury is perfect for essentials including welsh cakes Hide
