The small town farm setting was just what I wanted. I feel as though I made friends and will return to hike the Brecon Beacons and stay there again.

So peaceful and quiet and comfortable. Glorious tub after walking from Brecon, along the canal. Felt welcome and safe. I was there in September, and I felt like I had the place to myself. Real milk in the tiny fridge.
