The Brecon area
Abereithrin is located on the northern edge of the spectacular Brecon Beacons National Park. This is a beautiful part of Wales with traditional market towns, stunning landscape, canal paths, castles and plenty of family attractions. The scenery here is both beautiful and diverse, ranging from rolling countryside and valleys, to the wild beauty of the waterfalls and caves. Wales is well known for its castles and perhaps one of the most dramatic is Carreg Cennen near Llandeilo. Brecon, Llandovery, Crickhowell, Tretower, Hay and Bronllys can also boast of impressive castles.
The cottage adjoins the owner's house and is set in a quiet rural setting in Pentrebach, a very small hamlet consisting of some 8 dwellings including a country pub – The Shoemakers Arms / Tafarn y Crydd.
The nearest shops and petrol stations are in Sennybridge, about 3 miles away. The traditional old market towns of Brecon and Llandovery are both about 12 miles away. To the north is the upland moor of the Epynt military ranges. To the south is Dan yr Ogof Caves, one of Wales' premier family attractions and was also voted Britain's finest natural wonder.
Cultural highlights include the Brecon Jazz Festival in August, the Hay Festival in late May/early June and the Green Man Festival held near Crickhowell in August. The Royal Welsh Agricultural Show in July and the Winter Fair in December both held in Builth Wells are highlights of the year for the agricultural community.
