There is a purpose built Garden Building with Games Room, Laundry and Walkers Drying Room. 3 and 7 night prices are fixed but please ask for a quote for better rates on 4 to 6 night stays.

High Barn is a character stone barn dating from 1860 which has been renovated to the highest standards in 2013. It shares a Garden Building with two other cottages which has snooker, pool, table tennis and board games. It is an idyllic location with fantastic views over the Brecon Beacons National Park and lots to do for all interests.

Thank you for being great guests and writing our first review which has been a great help in starting the new barn off. The feedback has helped us decide to install a new picnic table outside for guests to sit out and get the best of the views.
