    Enjoyable, relaxing week's holiday in comfortable spacious accommodation. Ideal spot for exploring the Brecon Beacons. Fantastic views across countryside to the beacons from living room and bedroom windows. South facing private courtyard with picnic bench and countryside views. The working small holding adds to the atmosphere of the location. The well insulated cottage is warmed by central heating and also has a log burner which adds a cosy feeling.

    Our second visit to Duck Cottage, for one of us to work with DofE for part of the time and for both of us to relax and do some walks and exploring.

    We were in Duck cottage at Alltybrain farm for the second time. The cottage is well equipped with a very large bed with outstanding nature views. All that in a quiet environment with a super friendly owner (Rose). Thanks for the excellent stay again!
