Brecon Beacons Country Home, sleeps 15+ family/pet friendly, perfect for walking

The Old Vicarage is a beautiful country home with a huge rambling garden, nestled in the Brecon Beacons on the sides of the Sugar Loaf Mountain. Successfully rented for 20 years to many large groups, families, walking groups, reunions and birthday parties.

Stunning views, walks and hikes all year round, birdwatching, cosy fireplaces, firepit, AGA. Perfect for large groups & families. Kids love the treehouse, trampoline, wendy house and exploring the garden's woodland.

The house is perfect for large groups of friends and families looking for a scenic, relaxed get-away, a walking holiday, or celebratory get-together and comfortably sleeps as many as 16 people. The house has its quirks and oozes rustic charm and character. Family-friendly with toys, board games for kids to get their hands on and DVD and Smart TV capabilities. Kids adore the tree house, wendy house and trampoline (supervision required). Paradise for pets; good WiFi.

N.B: Guests must bring their own towels.

(A little outdated now, as we have a new kitchen and some new beds since!)

Ground floor:
Kitchen - Fully equipped, spacious, with cosy AGA for warmth/cooking, and Britannia gas range.
Dining room - perfect for large group meals, opens out with French windows onto the terrace and the front lawn of the garden.
TV Room - (the 'snug') with fireplace, sofa, large TV with Netflix/iPlayer access etc, a large selection of DVDs and toys.
The red room (sitting room) - relax with a drink in the evening around the large fireplace on the comfortable sofas, maybe play chess?
Downstairs Bathroom with powerful shower.
Back Kitchen - connected to kitchen for washing up/laundry/tumble dryer/muddy boots/dogs with backdoor leading outside.
Extra storage room - storage for extra freezer/fridge space and washing machine.

Upstairs:
1. Master Bedroom (Super king bed), with ensuite bathroom
2. Twin Room
3. Double Bedroom with super king bed/day bed/single bed (particularly useful for child to share room with parents) & fireplace
4. Twin Room with basin
5. Main Bathroom with shower/bath

Loft: Double Room (with extra single bed)
Single Room
Twin beds in landing, great for kids

Three acres of unique, gorgeous, rambling garden to explore and relax in - one of the best features of the house: three different tiers of lawn, as the house is located at the foot of the Sugar Loaf.

Main front lawn with terrace, deck chairs, outside dining table, chairs and benches, firepit, gas BBQ, table tennis table, wendy-house, swing from very old beautiful oak tree.

Lower Lawn with trampoline (kids should be supervised), leading down into woodland area - great for kids to explore and make dens, collect mistletoe and holly at Christmas!

Follow the winding path up to the Upper Lawn - smaller with more privacy, great area for peace and quiet, gorgeous views.

Treehouse (nestled under huge old yew tree - you won't be able to see it until you go looking for it!) - rope ladders leading up to its balcony (not suitable for young children unsupervised), and walkway.
