Photos and Description of the Mid Wales vacation rental 2 bedroom cottage to sleep 4 within Glanusk Park in the Brecon Beacons NP.

Glanusk Park is one of the largest remaining family Estates in mid-Wales, in the very heart of the beautiful Brecon Beacons National Park on the River Usk. It is an area of windswept mountains and waterfalls, sheltered valleys, speckled with isolated farmsteads and small bustling market towns. The estate also owns 20 miles of private footpaths as well as large tracts of the Black Mountains. Rods are available for salmon and trout on the River Usk for a modest daily fee. A split level (6 steps) cottage in the courtyard of the main house itself, has one double bedroom and one twin bedroom, a bathroom with an over- bath shower, fully equipped kitchen, with dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer and microwave. Sitting room with open fire and private garden with terrace overlooking the park with stunning views over the Estate to the Black Mountains beyond. Pets not allowed.

Location: Wales

Situated two miles northwest of Crickhowell, Powys, the Glanusk Park Estate has been owned by the same family since 1826 when the Welsh Iron Master, Sir Joseph Bailey, built a large Mansion House overlooking the River Usk and then extended the supporting Estate throughout Breconshire. Sadly, the original house was demolished in 1952 after the death of his direct descendant, the 3rd Lord Glanusk. The latter's daughter, the Hon Mrs Legge-Bourke LVO, the present Lord Lieutenant of Powys, and her family now live in the extended Dower House, Penmyarth. Neither the remaining Dower House nor the Estate is open to the public. There are a number of good golf courses nearby including Celtic Manor. Trout fishing is available on the Estate's private beat in season as well as shooting. The River Usk runs through the Listed Park, providing beautiful riverside walks. The Park is also home to the largest Celtic standing stone in Wales and many specimen and exotic trees.
