Llaethdy - Milkhouse was once the old dairy in the small town of Talgarth and what you see today once included a cow shed and hay barn, but has now been skillfully converted into a holiday home. In days gone by the farmer milked his cows here and delivered it from a churn by horse and cart; it wasn’t very far to travel so it must have been very fresh! The detached barn, with its oak beams, offers bright open plan living space, ground floor bedrooms and shower room and two large first floor bedrooms, one with an en-suite bathroom.
The ancient market town of Talgarth is an ideal base for visitors wishing to explore the Brecon Beacons National Park on foot, particularly as it forms the "Gateway to the Black Mountains" which act as a backdrop to the town. There are wonderful walking opportunities on the doorstep and an annual walking festival in the town in May. While in the town, visit the local businesses around the pretty stone streets where friendly staff will be able to offer you some of the finest local produce, watch the gentle river as it flows under the Medieval Tower Bridge or, at Christmas gaze at the dazzling lights. The town offers a real chance to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Thanks to the BBC’s Village SOS programme, Talgarth now has a fully restored working water mill with a very popular café. There are cosy pubs with roaring log fires, real ales and home cooked food; all within an easy stroll of Llaethdy - Milkhouse.
Discover Parc Wood or Pwll-yr-Wrach waterfalls and nature reserve, take a look at the views from the top of Bronllys Castle, or simply admire the spectacular views from the common land overlooking the town. Close to Brecon, Crickhowell and Hay-on-Wye, Talgarth is an ideal base for visitors wishing to explore the Brecon Beacons National Park on foot, whether it’s the high peaks or the lush green valleys of the Wye and the Usk which capture the imagination. Talgarth and the surrounding countryside is a haven for artists and photographers. For a fascinating insight into the life and times of workers during the early years of the Industrial Revolution, why not visit Blaenavon Ironworks? The site is home to one of the best preserved 18th century ironworks in Europe and comes complete with furnaces, cast houses, a magnificent water balance tower, cupola furnace and ironworker’s cottages. Take a trip on a vintage steam locomotive across the narrow gauge heritage railway that runs beside Pontsticill and Pentwyn Reservoirs. You could spend a lifetime in the Brecon Beacons National Park and not see all there is to see; but you can discover quite a lot if you make Llaethdy – Milkhouse your home for your holiday whether it’s a short break or slightly longer stay. Fresh air, wide open spaces, a creative atmosphere and loads to entertain you, whatever the weather. There’s plenty to enjoy after dark too, from superb annual festivals, full of authentic Welsh flavour, to the famously clear, starry skies. Shop, pub and restaurant 200 yards.

Lovely bedrooms

The house was very convenient for the Hay Festival. It’s a nice house and Talgarth is beautiful. The bedrooms are lovely. Overall we had a great time but we had a few minor quibbles. Downstairs was a bit cramped for a four bed house and the garden is really just a drive. The fridge was a bit smelly but the owner did her best to resolve the issue ( something blocked in the fridge drain). The towels were a small and scratchy. Overall it was a nice place and I’m sure the fridge is sorted now but bring your own towels.

Lovely property in a great little town in the Brecon Beacons

We really enjoyed our stay, the property was as described, really clean, well equipped and spacious for us and the family. We stayed with our infant child and it had all the things that we needed so that we didn't need to bring all our own stuff (eg. high chair, cot). Was great to use as a base for walks around the Brecon Beacons, we were also attending a wedding nearby and it made it easy to get to and from the venue, The town itself is really cute and has everything you might need, small supermarket, pharmacy, butcher, bakery, PUB, etc.

Excellent cottage.

The cottage is located very conveniently in the town centre, within walking distance to local shop, restaurant and takeaway. There is enough parking space for 3 cars. The house itself is very clean, spacious and fully equipped in all you may need. The bedrooms are very large, and so is the living room and space and kitchen. All was very clean. Excellent holiday cottage, thank you for having us. Aga and friend’s .

The Milkhouse was a lovely place to stay for our week long holiday.

The Milkhouse was a lovely place to stay for our week long holiday. The village of Talgarth was beautiful and has handy local produce shops and a small supermarket for the rest of your needs. The location was brilliant for being able to explore South Wales from, with excellent transport links for those with cars and bikes.Accommodation was ample for the number of people who stayed.The owners were nice and checked in with us during our stay.
