3 Bed in Brecon (oc-bn161)

The cottage sits on the banks of the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal** as it winds south to the charming village of Talybont-on-Usk, 1 mile away. Thanks to the river, canal, and reservoir, this area has a dreamy atmosphere. There are plenty of boat-watching and waterside strolls to inspire you, and friendly local pubs and restaurants where you can while the afternoon away. Or, for a more adventurous jaunt, head to the peaks of the Brecon Beacons. The height of South Wales, Pen y Fan, is just waiting to be climbed 9 miles away. A pair of Ospreys have nested in the area and these can often be seen gliding in the air from Forge Cottage gardens.

Step into this traditional cottage and you’ll find a mix of contemporary comfort and antique style. The well-equipped kitchen is a sleek spot where you can invent a new family favourite. Enjoy your meal in the dining room, with its view over the surrounding hills. Or if the weather’s right, head out to the cottage garden and watch the canal boats while you eat. The sitting room is a bright space with a wood burner, ideal for cosy evenings before heading up the cottage-style staircase to the bedrooms. There are three: a twin, single and a double, each dressed with cottage charm. The family bathroom is on the first floor with a further shower room with WC located on the ground floor.

Outside the cottage sits a large grassy garden, bordering the canal via a low wall. With fruit trees and mature planting, it offers classic cottage charm for family games and lounging on the lawn. Off-road private parking for two cars.

**Please Note: This cottage may not be suitable for families with young children due to the close proximity to the unguarded canal and any children in the group will need parental supervision at all times.
