Description

This retreat is set high in the hillside offering breathtaking views across the cool festival town of Crickhowell, offering both spacious and beautifully finished accommodation that’s perfect for any occasion. The hillside hamlet of Dardy forms part of the vibrant village Llangattock, well served with a pub and restaurant, and surrounded by the stunning scenery of the Brecon Beacons National Park. A haven for outdoor enthusiasts, walkers can take advantage of some great hillsides including Table Mountain and Sugar Loaf, or enjoy a leisurely amble along the Brecon Canal towpath – for cyclists there is a network of country lanes to explore. Other activities include boat hire, horse riding, canoeing, and climbing, all within 15 miles. The vibrant market town of Crickhowell has a range of independent shops, cafes and restaurants and is just under 1 mile away. Other attractions include the Big Pit at Blaenavon, The National Show Caves and the Brecon Mountain Railway all within (25 miles).

This beautiful home is steeped in history, formally serving as an infirmary to a local workhouse and now a stylish holiday home for family and friends to enjoy. Guests can take some time to admire the views across the valley from the front terrace. Enter the house via the front, where a spacious entrance hall awaits with exposed stone walls and a cantilever staircase, offering plenty of space for muddy boots and coats after a day of exploring. The ground floor is perfect for getting together, with a generously sized front aspect lounge perfect for pre-dinner drinks from the small bar, along with a Smart TV, a table suitable for up to 16, and when dinner is over, you are free to relax in the second lounge area that enjoys a wood burner, Smart TV and pool table. For the chef amongst you, a fantastic catering style kitchen has everything that you could ask for, great for catering for larger groups. This stylish home has two cantilever staircases that climb to the first floor, where guests have the choice of seven individually finished bedrooms all enjoying en-suite facilities. A small king-size bedroom with en-suite shower over bath and WC, two zip-and-link king bedrooms, one with en-suite shower room and one with bathroom, one king room with en-suite bathroom with a large walk-in shower and WC, and a small double room (double bed) with a walk-in shower and WC. Finally, on this floor, there are two single rooms both with en-suite walk-in showers and WC. Additionally, on the second floor, there are also two master suites both enjoying breathtaking views across the mountains. The first offers a super-king-size bedroom with an additional lounge area with TV, an en-suite bathroom with free-standing bath, double walk-in shower and WC. The final one offers a super-king-size suite with additional lounge area with en-suite double walk-in shower room and WC.

Outside, guests are free to explore the gardens, a terrace to the front of the property offers seating and the perfect view perfect to enjoy over a morning coffee, and to the rear of the property is a further terrace with table and chairs for summer dining. A private hot tub that accommodates seven is a very special feature of this enchanting retreat.

Reviews

We booked Dardy House to host a party of 16 plus dog for a family get-together this weekend. The house is perfect for a large group, we didn't once feel cramped, the rooms are all generous and there is everything you could need for a weekend away. Alex our host was really friendly and always on hand if needed to make sure the weekend ran smoothly for us. We loved our weekend here and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this property. The Thomas Family.

Mr T,

We had a wonderful weekend In this beautiful property. Plenty of space for 16 of us to spend time all together and plenty of space to sneak off if necessary

Mrs C,

Absolutely fabulous stay from start to finish. The property is so beautiful and the pictures do not do it justice on just how big and amazing it really is. Alex is very helpful and attentive from the welcome Prosecco, to little notes left around the property and the texts and calls back and forth between us due to storm darragh causing a power cut, alex even sorted getting us wood from her neighbour and updates on the power returning. It did not dampen our weekend away a large group of adults, mainly couples who go away once a year without the kids. Beds are super comfortable, blankets available and we all love a blanket, kitchen had everything we needed and large enough fridge and freezers for all our food and alcohol. Hot tub was great and very clean, games room was our favourite room, the girls could watch a film in the sitting area while the lads played pool/darts etc and we was still all together. Do not have one bad thing to say about our stay and would highly recommend! We normally stay in a new property every time we go away but if we was to return anywhere it would be here!

Ms B,

A beautiful comfy venue ideal for a family get together

Mr C,

A fabulous weekend spent with friends at this beautiful house. It has everything and more. Alex left us prosecco on arrival which was very much appreciated and she was available for any problems which may have occurred. The house was beyond our expectations. Beautifully decorated and so much space. The views are gorgeous too. Easy to get onto the canal for walking and a short walk into Crickhowell. It was even better than we expected.

Mrs C,

Absolutely fantastic property. Fabulous views. Really comfortable. Immaculately clean. Very responsive host. I actually can’t fault this place. Having been let down by Airbnb with less than 24 hours before 15 people were heading to Wales, Alex was amazing. Nothing was too much trouble. Wholeheartedly recommend.

Mrs B,

Alex is amazing, she makes us feel welcome and very nice big property

Mr S,

What an amazing house, in the most stunning countryside. Really comfy beds, masses of space, games, books, TVs, hot tub, table football, a secret hideaway at the top of the garden....this is the perfect holiday house for kids and adults alike. The owner could not have been more helpful and was always quick to respond to any queries. We're already looking to book this again, and can't recommend it highly enough.

Ms P,
