Family-friendly vacation rentals in Brechfa Forest

What a gem of a find! We absolutely loved our stay here. From the river below to the hot tub, everything was so peaceful- exactly what we were looking for. The house itself is beautiful and has everything that you need for a family stay. We will definitely be returning!

John's place is amazing. The house is very clean and spacious with an outdoor area for the bbq. We loved the quiet surroundings. I highly recommend the property.

lovely place to stay. Cottage was comfortable, warm, cosy and well equipped. Good location for coastal walks. Hot tub was lovely and generally a very relaxing break!

Lovely stay, the yurt was well equipped and the log burner definitely kept it cosy. Weather wasn’t great during our stay but still managed to make some use of the hot tub. Natasha was friendly and although we didn’t need to contact her during our stay I’d be confident that she’d be quick to respond. Diolch!

A truly stunning place to stay.. The pictures really don't do it justice. A perfect location. Leanne was a great host, communication was quick and she was there to answer any queries if needed. I cannot recommend this place enough. We definitely made the right choice when booking and wouldn't hesitate in making a return visit. A really special place to stay.

We had a great holiday. There was more than enough space for everyone. Everywhere was clear. All bedrooms were beautiful. The back bedrooms had the best views. Every beach we went to as changed from 9 years ago. Georgin was a great host. Very friendly & bubbly. My granddaughters loved grooming the horses with Georgin on their last day. The hot tub was great everyone enjoyed it. Thank you Georgin would recommend your to my family & friends xxx

We had a very comfortable stay at Aled’s property. It was very well equipped perfect for 2 families and we also had 3 dogs with us which Aled kindly accommodated for. Some fabulous walks with the dogs and children. A little out the way to any attractions but local 7 minute drive to spar,restaurants and takeaways.

Fantastic two nights stay with Mez. The hot tub and log burner were especially awesome after a long day out! About an hours drive to our chosen starting point for a hike up Pen Y Fan. Mez was so friendly and helpful- our crazy dog loved him too!

Frankie was exceptionally helpful and communicative throughout the booking process, the weeks leading up to our stay and during it. She went above and beyond to make our stay as good as possible. Even decorating a couple of Christmas trees to make it look festive and welcoming. There was lots of space for all of us and it was comfortable and warm. The location is within easy reach of Gower and the Brecon Beacons. All in all I’d recommend this house as a great space for a family or friends get together.

We had a lovely few days at the Barn, using is as a base to explore the valleys, and sights in Carmarthenshire. The Barn is lovely and cosy - and actually feels bigger than it looks on the pictures. We loved the wood burning stove, with fuel provided and fire made the first night, which was a real treat to use - and if you are visiting at the right time of year, be sure to look outside at the stars in the dead of night, because we were able to see so much. The place would be easy to miss if you didn’t know where you were going, but we had very clear instructions beforehand and found it no trouble. To anyone wondering about the internet - some reviews here mention WiFi, but as advertised, there is no WiFi - which we actually enjoyed. If you need internet, mobile data doesn’t really work inside the barn, but was available as soon as one stepped outside, which was fine for our satnav purposes. Ann also offered to help us access the internet if there was an issue, but this wasn’t needed.

Shaun and Jo were very welcoming hosts. The heating had been on in anticipation of my arrival so I felt relaxed as soon as I arrived. loved seeing the pheasants around the cottage, and the occasional chicken. The larder fridge was impeccable. instructions for all equipment provided. There was plenty of room. I had a very peaceful relaxing stay, and thoroughly recommend.

Christmas week at Aberdar was absolutely perfect. Easy to find on a quiet country lane and situated half an hour each way between 2 bustling towns was ideal for shopping and pubs (there are plenty!) Beautiful countryside for walks and MTB bike rides. The cottage itself - well, what can we say? It is the best equipped holiday place we’ve ever stayed in. Having a side entry for muddy boots and a front door with easy access to kitchen/diner/lounge was great. We didn’t want for anything, particularly in the kitchen with every amenity. Downstairs was more than roomy enough for the 6 of us but still cosy, especially with the wood burner in the open plan area and the TV snug with extremely comfy sofa! We LOVED the projector cabin with wood burner - a real treat for watching films. Games room - great fun! Bedrooms have beautiful decor and so comfy. Access between them to the ensuite shower room was handy with main bathroom and extra loo downstairs. Tim was a perfect host. Will be back!

Lovely relaxing place . Great to have no WiFi. Ideal for all the family we played lots of the provided games. Easy access to local places.

My family and I stayed over Christmas and had the perfect week away. The cottage is tucked away at the bottom of a beautiful valley which was gorgeous even in Winter. We were delighted with how cosy the cottage was when we arrived - it was spotless, warm and decorated for Christmas. There were so many little touches that made us and our dog Teddy, feel very welcome. The cottage was very well equipped and had everything we needed. Amanda went above and beyond to give us all the information we needed and was on hand if we needed anything. We loved it exploring the meadow and Teddy especially enjoyed the river. We also had several lovely beach trips. Thanks Amanda for making us feel so welcome.

I think this is either my 4th or 5th time staying with Stephen and Cara. I keep coming back because it’s a superb AirBnB. Incredibly dog friendly with various aspects of the Incredible Brechfa Forest on the doorstep. I really first rate property, with everything provided and needed for a home from home stay. Lovely hosts. And has to be one of the most beautiful places on earth to walk dogs and get the most from a phenomenal location. Simply the best and an absolute guarantee I will return again and again.

Such a beautiful place to stay, I wish I could have stayed longer to enjoy the surroundings a little more. Sian is a brilliant host with great communication! Highly recommended. I will definitely be booking again.

Our whole family absolutely loved staying here. Plenty of space for a family of 6. It's a great base for adventuring the many beautiful beaches. The children especially loved the swimming pool on site also bowling 🎳 and the castle 🏰 which are both only a 10 minute drive away. Thank you for a great family holiday 😊

We stayed for a holiday for 7 nights, 2 couples with a 3 year old and 2 dogs. The house really is a home from home, with comfortable beds and a well stocked kitchen with everything you could need. Julia greeted us on arrival. We loved the big farmhouse kitchen where we ate together in the evenings. We then retired to the living room to watch the TV and put the log burner fire on! Logs had been provided and when we asked for more logs (as the weather had turned chilly) these were delivered to our door! Kris and Julia could not have been more accommodating to us. But the bonus is the pool. The 3 year old loved it and we used it every day. We just requested our swimming times each day which is a great idea if other guests are staying in the other cottages. We loved exploring the coastal path where you can see the fantastic beaches, though it is steep in parts. Our dogs were safe off the lead on site. Horace (the resident dog) can often be seen wandering around. A great holiday, thank you!

Great, rustic and characterful property. Nice, comfortable place, great location, very authentic. Great host who was always quick to reply and very accommodating. Loads to do on site (Leisure facilities on site) and castles and beaches not too far away (Via a car)! Very well equipped kitchen with everything needed. Good WiFi, smart TV and good size rooms. Upstairs bedroom is open to living room. A spacious living room with ample parking Comfortable beds with good pillows. Highly recommend!

Charming cabin with all the things you'll need inside. peaceful & quiet position on the wooded site. Perfect for access to anywhere in Pembrokeshire. Great communication from the host. Loved it ,well be going back . Thanks Liz

Beautiful Cottage, very peaceful. Cottage was immaculately presented. Host was very responsive when we had an issue with the TV

Carl and I had an excellent five days here over Christmas. The Wi-Fi/TV were a bit temperamental following the storm, but Gyles was happy to come round and look at it for us. I particularly enjoyed exploring the woodland behind the cottage, our dog loved it too.

Beautiful peaceful and relaxing stay with my husband and three boys, ages 16,13 &6. Just what we needed before heading back into a busy 2025. Could not fault the stay and we will definitely be going back. Both staff very helpful and friendly. The snow made our stay that extra special.

Our second break at the cottage, this time staying for 2 nights over Xmas Eve and Xmas day. We have never been away over the Xmas period before but couldn’t have asked for anything more from our stay. We arrived to home made mince pies and a fully decorated house and tree. We were made to feel at home over Christmas with all the small touches that Clare went to the effort to make. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to prepare and cook our Xmas dinner and we enjoyed a chilled bottle of Prosecco on our arrival. The log fire in the lounge made our evenings feel extra festive and was well stocked with kindling and logs. I just wish we had booked a longer stay as nobody wanted to come home.
