One king and two double bedrooms (one en-suite) comfortably sleep up to 6 guests, with a lounge with smart TV and speedy wi-fi, and great size kitchen for communal dining and entertaining downstairs.
A newly constructed tiered garden adjacent to the house offers a great outside space, with fantastic views of the Taf Fechan valley from inside and out.
Please note - we are in the process of completing the works on the outdoor spaces, to complete May 2024.

The Neighborhood:
A village of industrial heritage, Pontsticill is closely associated with the Brecon Mountain Railway, a steam locomotive tourist railway which operates as an attraction to visitors along the former Brecon and Merthyr Railway line, and Taf Fechan reservoir, constructed to serve the growing industry and population of the South Wales valleys in the 1920s.
Pontsticill also boasts two bustling, dog friendly pubs, situated minutes from the cottage, popular year-round with locals and visitors alike.
Getting Around:
We highly recommend arrival by car due to our rural location, however a local bus runs several times a day between Pontsticill and Merthyr Tydfil, from where you can access trains to major UK cities.
We welcome cyclists with their own bikes and equipment, although local hire is available if preferred.

We live only moments away; we are happy to be as on-hand or remote as you need us to be during your stay.
