Journey to the unspoilt heart of the Brecon Beacons and you'll find this beautiful old country house, run by the same family for over 50 years. A stay here in one of its 23 well-appointed en suite rooms feels like being transported back to a simpler time but will all the conveniences of the modern world.
Gliffaes boasts a magnificent location, with sweeping vistas across this national park's world-famous landscape. The clear, pristine waters of the River Usk flow by below, teeming with trout, perch and chub. If you're lucky you might even glimpse a family of otters frolicking in the current.
Blessed with such natural beauty, it's not surprising that the owners are keen to preserve it for future generations to enjoy. Waste cooking oil is used to make fuel and local wool is put to work as insulation, keeping energy use down while ensuring the place is always cosy. They even have a hive of bees to produce their own honey. You can also use their tandem bikes for exploring the vast wild reaches of this tranquil area, so you can keep out of the car and have fun at the same time.
With its great location and great locally sourced food, a stay at Gliffaes is truly a break from the norm.
