Situated on the outskirts of Talybont-on-Usk, Ty Bach Twt is wooden chalet on a working smallholding. Well-equipped, it’s ideal for a couple or solo looking to explore the Brecon Beacons and beautiful countryside of mid Wales.
Outside, the chalet benefits from a patio complete with a barbecue, fire pit, and hot tub, and wonderful views of the Sugar Loaf and Black Mountain Range.
The farm, which extends to 34 acres, is home to a variety of animals including chickens, peacocks, cows, goats, pigs, and sheep with the chance to see lambs and calves in spring. There are also some cuddly pet rabbits and friendly cats and dogs which children in particular will delight in meeting.
Sausages, burgers, pork pies, and joints of meat are produced on the farm along with breakfast and barbecue packs, honey, eggs, and seasonal vegetables all available to purchase.
Guests are welcome to walk through the various paths that run through the farm with direct access to the Usk Valley Trail and the Taff Trail just a quarter of a mile away.
The Brecon Beacons National Park is a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts with opportunities for walking, cycling, climbing, and water sports. Hike the Four Waterfalls Walk, track the Llyn y Fan Fach glacial lake, or challenge yourself to reach the summit of Pen Y Fan. As an International Dark Sky Reserve, the park is also excellent for star gazing, while wildlife watchers should keep an eye out for peregrine falcons, red kites, otters, pine martens, Welsh mountain ponies, and rare arctic alpine plants.
Other attractions nearby include Treberfydd House, a gothic revival country house set in 10 acres of gardens and woodlands; Ellesmere Riding & Trekking Centre; the ruins of Snodhill Castle, a Norman motte-and-bailey fortress; and Le Prevost Vineyard, where visitors can enjoy a tour followed by wine tasting.
