Family-friendly vacation rentals in Ystradgynlais

Michael and Rosemary's place was absolutely brilliant! The location was superb (beautiful walk to New Quay - especially at low tide along the beach) Everything was as described and we especially enjoyed reading the story of how the property was built. Relaxing in the evening with the sound of the babbling stream in the background was wonderful. We look forward to returning in the future.

Really nice place, cabin had everything we needed. Definitely want to go back!

We had a really lovely stay. Such a beautiful place with everything you need! Spotlessly clean and very comfortable

We had an excellent stay. All amenities were close by. The house was clean and everything we required was available. The hot tub was lovely. The walk to the beach was fine, but difficult if young kids were with you, or not reasonably fit. We would definitely stay again!

The accommodation was perfect for our large family with 3 generations staying with our 3 dogs . The area around the cottage was safe and secure for the toddlers and dogs alike . It is a Fantastic place to unwind . The cottage had everything you would need for a relaxing break . Great walks were had from the front door. The host Aled was very helpful from the off with a friendly welcome and a guided tour of the accommodation including use off the Hot tub . We will return I’m sure . Gary

We were welcomed by Mez and from minute one nothing was too much trouble. Fantastic host and brilliant stay. So good we are already looking at available dates for summer.

Amazing experience and Carolyn was so helpful with everything at the cottage and with her recommendations to eat. Celebrated a birthday which Carolyn kindly let me decorate for the occasion. Beautiful scenery and fishing in the lake on the property whilst watching the ducks and geese was lovely.

Hot tub was a dream! The four of us and our dog had a very relaxing stay in February, all enjoyed the cosiness of the cottage, comfy beds and loungy sofas. The children loved the play area and the animals on the farm. We especially enjoyed waving to the alpacas from the hot tub! Thanks to Leanne for working hard to make sure we had everything we needed. Nearby beaches we explored were gorgeous - Llangrannog, Newquay and Poppit Sands worth a visit. Thanks for a brilliant stay. We are already thinking about when we can come back!

I stayed with Mike and Bert for two weeks while a house sale went through, I brought with me my high maintenance Bengal cat Kevin Bacon. During our stay Mike has gone out of his way to accommodate us, the accommodation is completely separate and lockable, I felt completely safe, I knew Kevin was secure and didn’t see any red flags. Mike is laid back and approachable, the perfect host. The bed is extremely comfortable and everything I have needed has been included with no extra costs or limitations. Bert is a very good boy and has been trained properly, he doesn’t go upstairs but he will bring you a shoe each time he sees you as a greeting, Bert was completely safe around Kevin when I took Kevin in the garden. There is easy parking at the accommodation and lots to do in the area, lots of walks, castles, stepping stones over rivers, sand dunes, beaches, horse riding and a decent selection of Pubs. If I ever end up homeless again I will be coming back! Thank you.

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.

I loved everything about this place, the bed was very comfy and the location was perfect. The bath and shower are wonderful and so is the soap and shower gel and linens available. I loved the eco friendly toilet paper too. Two points to note: there was no chopping board I could see? Fortunately most of my food was already prepared so it was not a big deal. And I believe it is the hot water tank that makes a noise intermittently? So, if you're a light sleeper like me, you'll need ear plugs despite being in very quiet and peaceful countryside. I loved my stay here it was very special and I would stay again when visiting the brecons!

Gosh, what a beautiful place Aberdar is! Whilst it’s off the beaten track it offers the most superb views across the hills, and the garden and orchard areas are so peaceful to wile away the hours. The cottage was perfect too, everything you need for a relaxing break. The dogs had a brilliant time making our holiday even easier! Loved every second ❤️

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.

Hosted my sister’s hen do here and it was perfect! Had all the amenities we needed (is bigger than the photos make it seem) and Kate was very helpful providing flexible check in and out.

Lovely accommodation and a perfect location for a biking weekend at BPW, Pete went the extra mile with breakfast and all the comforts of home from home. Will definitely be coming back

Needed a place to stay for our group of friends to watch the rugby, Danny's place was just what we needed, room for us all, & within walking distance, weather permitting, of millennium stadium, large taxis cheap enough, if not. Like staying at a mate's house but your mate's not there 🤣 Great pub about 10 minutes away, The Lansdowne. Easy check in & out. Danny was very responsive to all our needs.

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 😊

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!

Myself and 5 of my friends stayed here for 2 nights, the accommodation was exactly as pictured and described, the location is very rural and absolutely beautiful, the only negative reviews we found was concerning WiFi but we had no problems with it at all. I would definitely recommend these cottages for couples, families or groups of friends, the value for money is phenomenal for the package. We will definitely return and 2 of my party have already booked stays with family for later in the year.

Woodpecker Cottage is a wonderful place to stay, comfortable, well-equipped, and full of charm. Gyles is a fantastic host; welcoming, thoughtful, and always happy to go the extra mile to ensure you feel at home. The log burner was a real treat and made our stay even more special. Thank you, Gyles!

Had an amazing stay. The apartment is much bigger than the photos and was such an easy walk into the centre of Cardiff. Would definitely stay here again!

First time in Wales and the whole family was impressed, beautifully located with the perfect surroundings and lots to do. It felt like we were abroad. We had lots of family activities and bonding time, no phone signal but very good WiFi.

We had a fantastic stay in the Brecon Beacons for the Easter holiday. Clare was a very welcoming host who provided easy to follow directions and a very hospitable welcome including fine cake and prosecco. The accommodation was exactly what we wanted with all the amenities described including gym and hot tub. The home is very well located for walking, it is even possible to walk to Pen y Fan directly from the house! A special thanks to her son-in-law T who was very helpful and enjoyable company!

The cottage is well looked after and as described in AirBnB. All basic necessary items were provided including silverware, cutlery, fridge, microwave/grill combo and oven/hob. The holiday village is serene, lending itself nicely for a nice rest after long days of exploring the area. The swimming pool is a very welcome plus for families with children, although the pool has no shallow area for kids younger than 7 or 8 years old. Overall highly recommended. We'll definitely consider coming back.
