Shepherds Retreat Wales

Situated on a traditional Breconshire working farm in the magnificent setting of the Brecon Beacons National Park, is Shepherd’s Retreat Wales, a lovely group of shepherd’s huts and gypsy-style caravans each hosting a plush double bed, woodburning stove and dining and seating area for two. Set at the base of the Black Mountains and enjoying a tranquil location within a shared, enclosed garden, this group of properties provide an idyllic spot to relax with loved ones and escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Utilise a communal kitchen equipped with a good selection of necessary appliances to cook up a storm, or relish alfresco mealtimes with use of a barbecue; the site also hosts a shared bathroom facility so you can feel refreshed and ready for the day ahead. When you want to explore, a short stroll will bring you to Llangorse Lake, the largest natural lake in South Wales famous for pike fishing; from here you can also try out a wealth of activities at Llangorse Multi Activity Centre, such as pony trekking and riding, rock climbing and zip lining. The magnificent Dinas Castle hillfort resides only a stone’s throw away from your doorstep and is the highest and one of the most impressive structures of its kind in England and Wales.

Further afield in Brecon, immerse yourself in the history of the area at The Royal Welsh Regimental Museum ahead of ambling along the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal. Test out your swing at Brecon Golf Club before enjoying a cold beverage in one of the plentiful pubs here; for walking enthusiasts, a challenge awaits in hiking to the summit of Sugar Loaf Mountain or you can stretch your legs that little further and head towards the highest point in the Brecon Beacons, Pen Y Fan. Within accessible reach of Hay-on-Wye, Hereford and Builth Wells, these fantastic properties at Shepherd’s Retreat Wales offer the perfect base for exploring South Wales.
