Amongst all this obvious style, romance and luxury the real stars here are Susie and James Suter, the fourth generation of their family who have been welcoming guests to their haven in Wales since 1948 so they know about hospitality, and together with their loyal and friendly team of staff, have won more awards for food, service and hospitality than you can shake a stick at. |

Gay Friendly Traditional
Welsh Holiday Cottages Brecon Beacons National Park Wales Cosy Welsh Cottages, Gwaun-Cae-Gurwen, Brecon Beacons National Park, Wales  www.cosywelshcottages.co.uk Sitting quietly in glorious rural Wales at the foot of the Black Mountains and on the fringe of the wild romantic and untamed beauty of the Brecon Beacons National Park is where you will find these two delightful traditional Welsh country cottages. Apple and Bramley Cottages sit aside each other on a quite country lane and they’re interiors are as endearing as there names suggest. Apple and Bramley cottages were built as dwellings for farm labours many years ago. Both have been brought gently and sympathetically into the 21st century and remain true to their fine and long heritage: exposed beams, whitewashed stone walls, quarry stone and stripped wood floors abound amidst traditional furnishings. Because both cottages have full central heating and lashings of hot water, lighting the fire or the wood stove in the colder seasons is purely cosmetic. But if you’re like me you just have to try it; there is nothing more evocative and romantic than the sound and scent from a wood fire with the smoke gently curling from the chimney into the still air of autumn. Both Bramley and Apple cottages provide tranquillity without isolation. Staying at Bramley and Apple Cottages you really will enjoy a true Welsh holiday cottage experience. Paula the friendly host has thought of everything. |
