Autumn is truly upon us, and there’s nothing like taking in the fresh air and stunning landscape of the Brecon Beacons, and then cozying up beside a roaring fire in a romantic Autumn escape!

The village of Llangydnir is just down the road; a thriving little community with two active local pubs serving good comforting food and drink.
Tretower Court and Castle is only a ten minute drive away. For over 900 years, the castle and court has been altered and adapted to suit the style and tastes of the times.
