The property

Tawe Cottage is a welcoming terraced retreat set in the lively town of Ystradgynlais, offering a comfortable base for couples or small families keen to explore the varied landscapes of South Wales.

Well placed for both town amenities and countryside adventures, the cottage suits those who like a bit of life on the doorstep without sacrificing easy access to open space.

Inside, the cottage is arranged with practicality in mind.

The kitchen is well equipped for everyday holiday living, featuring an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, washing machine, and tumble dryer, making it easy to settle in whether you’re staying for a weekend or a little longer.

The living and dining area provides a relaxed spot to put your feet up after a day out, with a Smart TV ready for quieter evenings.

Upstairs, two neatly presented bedrooms offer flexible sleeping arrangements, including a double and a single with a day bed, ideal for a child or extra guest.

These are served by a ground-floor bathroom with a bath and shower over, keeping things straightforward and accessible.

To the rear, an enclosed garden with patio and outdoor furniture offers a private space to enjoy a morning coffee or wind down with a drink in the evening.

Roadside parking is available nearby, and WiFi, fuel, power, bed linen, and towels are all included.

One well-behaved dog is welcome too, so no need to leave a four-legged companion behind.

Ystradgynlais itself has plenty going on, with local shops, cafés, and traditional pubs all within easy walking distance.

The town sits alongside the River Tawe, where gentle riverside walks provide a peaceful contrast to the buzz of the high street.

For days out, Swansea is easily reached by car, offering sandy beaches, a lively marina, and plenty of shopping and dining options.

Head inland and the dramatic scenery of the Brecon Beacons National Park opens up opportunities for walking, cycling, and taking in wide valley views.

History lovers may also enjoy a visit to Carmarthen, known for its castle ruins and strong cultural heritage.

Tawe Cottage is a solid choice for a relaxed break, combining town convenience with easy access to some of South Wales’ most appealing landscapes.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.
