Coity Bach Self Catering Holiday Cottages

If you are looking for an experience of staying on a true working farm, with all the noises and mud that go with it, then Coity Bach is perfect for you. If you are worried about getting your trainers wet or your jeans dirty, go find a hotel.

Coity Bach is an amazing place to stay, right in the heart of some of the most beautiful countryside in the whole of Britain. It's within walking distance to Talybont (and their excellent pubs) and driving distance to Brecon, Pen y Fan, the Brecon Mountain Railway and the most wonderful waterfall walk imaginable.

Ceri and the whole team are so friendly and welcoming and allowed me to help out with feeding the baby pigs and goats. There are a number of animals, including sheep, dogs, cats and peacocks! The cats are very friendly but the real stars are the dogs - a beautiful Sharpei/Collie cross (who finally warmed to me), a wee Jack Russell and two adorably soppy (and slobbery) Newfoundlands.

The cabin itself is perfect for two people and we are very comfortable there for the whole week we stayed. There are cooking amenities which meant we didn't have to eat out every night.

We have totally fallen in love with Wales and loved our stay so much we cannot wait to return to stay with these wonderful people. Thank you for making us feel so welcome.

The most fantastic views! I joined in with the farm life and had a fantastic time. I took my 7 year son and my dog twinkle Both are wanting me to book again.
Ceri, Gerwyn and Kyle were a lovely friendly welcoming family. My son had so much fun feeding baby goats and lambs with bottles, he also loved stroking the pigs and brushing the horses.
The cottage had everything you needed to cook, I even made a cake to thank all those who made our time at Coity Bach so special.
We used the farm telescope to see those stars, so dark and no light pollution like we have, no wonder the Beacons have dark sky at night status.
My favourite was the Newfie dogs so loving and friendly but couldn't fix one in my boot to go home.
Can't wait to come back and thank you all at Coity Bach

I stayed here for a weekend with my partner and had a great time. Unfortunately we left leaving a review on Airbnb too late. Our host was very accommodating and deserve double kudos considering how busy they were preparing for the agricultural show that weekend. The accommodation was lovely with good amenities. The surrounding location is great for walks and very picturesque. It is also in a great location for exploring the rest of the Brecon Beacons. I would highly recommend staying here to anyone.

My partner and I booked to stay here for 5 days with our 18 month old and another couple with a similar age child. We left after 2 days. It is unsafe for children, it is dirty and loud. The family who run it seem very nice, but are not concerned with customer service, hygiene, safety, attention to detail or looking after their farm or animals. The peacock cottage is small, and the "third" bedroom is an attic platform, up a steep ladder. You have to pay for electricity (about £3 per day) and the laundry is communal and also paid for. The animals live in poor conditions and the field behind the cottage seems constantly in use for people hiring the tents etc. 10 years ago this might have been a nice place to stay, but it has aged badly, and the buildings are starting to deteriorate and there are piles of equipment and building materials all over the place. We had high hopes for an idyllic farm stay, and were very disappointed.
