- Sarah 23/08/25Fantastic location, with waterfall trails and local pubs within walking distance. Very quiet and peaceful cottage with a lovely private garden and easy parking.read moreread lessDenise 20/08/25lovely little place in a great location for walking...
lots of info in cottage for things to do locally ..
nice and comfortable bedsread moreread less - Henk 02/08/25een perfecte plek om alle natuurschoon in de omgeving te verkennen 😀 - Peter, de amicale eigenaar, reageerde direct om een verstopte wc en een niet werkend slot te verhelpen; verder een perfecte locatie voor alle watervallen en schitterende natuur in de omgeving 😞 - het huisje mist een bestekla (dit staat recht overeind in een bak) en haakjes in de keuken en badkamer om de hand- en theedoeken op te kunnen hangen, maar er zijn ergere dingenread moreread lessRachel 01/07/25It’s a different property because it’s within a residential estate, but the front garden has beautiful hedging and flowers, and the back garden is private and really green. It’s a lovely place, we had plenty of space for 2 adults, 2 children and 2 dogs. The location of the property is perfect for dog walks and getting outdoors and only 15-20 mins to Zip World which was great fun. All in all a really great stay, and we’d certainly book here again. Thank you!read moreread less

- Jayde 01/06/25Absolutely beautiful location with many walks in close proximity.
The two bedroom home is very well kept with everything you need. Great having an enclosed outside area for the dogs.
We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend.
Peter was also very prompt with replies and gave helpful tips.read moreread lessLiviu 01/06/25We had a fantastic stay at this lovely cottage! The property was spotlessly clean, and the modern kitchen and bathroom were a delight to use. The cottage had plenty of space for the two of us, and we appreciated the comfortable living area.
The location was perfect - convenient for exploring the local area, and just a short drive from the stunning waterfalls. We also appreciated the proximity to the Brecon Beacons, which was only a 25-minute drive away.
Our host was incredibly responsive and made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. We would highly recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a peaceful and picturesque getaway. Can't wait to come back!read moreread less - Rosa 01/06/25Lovely and spacious place! Well located for some great walks. Close by to nice pub but still rural and quiet.read moreread lessJoana 01/06/25Lovely quiet stay, very clean with ample crockery etc. Close to the things we wanted to do. Dogs were very happy too.read moreread less
- Brad 26/05/25We had a great stay at Pontneddfachen,
The area was great. We loved walking down to the Old White Horse and the Angel as food was stunning in both.
We also found a McDonald’s down the road for quick coffees before we set off.
Easy access to Rhossili bay. About an hour drive. Very easy.
The cottage was lovely. Bed was comfy. It was very tidy. And dog friendly! The local residents are so friendlt. We spoke to a lady next door and she was asking if we needed help with bags. She was so kind. The Town hall was so busy which was nice to see.
Thanks guys.read moreread lessRadley 19/05/25Brilliant place to stay for the waterfall. Great location. Very clean and tidy. Will highly recommend, will use again in the future!read moreread less - Alexandra Catherine 12/05/25We had a lovely few nights at peters place. Very dog friendly! The place was basic but had everything you need. The location was amazing, we went on some lovely walks! Would definitely stay here again!read moreread lessPhilip 14/04/25Canyon Cottage was perfect for our quick getaway to the Beacons. We come quite often and this was the perfect location for waterfall country and the hikes we had planned. The space had everything we needed, and would definitely return.read moreread less
- Ceri 07/04/25We absolutely loved our stay here! We were so lucky to have the waterfalls right on our doorstep! It was a really beautiful location. The beds were super comfy (no cheap mattresses with mattress toppers here), the place was warm and there was ample hot water. The garden was a wonderful bonus too. Cannot fault it!read moreread lessJulie 28/03/25The cottage was lovely and an excellent location right by the amazing waterfalls and walks.read moreread less
- Tracy Turner 24/03/25Canyon cottage had everything that we needed. Bed were really comfortable everything was very clean and it was literally on the doorstep of the four waterfalls walk. Two great pubs close by (I reckonmend booking for meal's as very busy) excellent food. Will definitely stay at this or there other property s again. To sum it up amazing trip around.read moreread lessJapjit 17/03/25Convenient location for doing the four waterfalls. Everything was clean and accessible. Would definitely recommend for anyone wanting to do this specific hike.read moreread less
- Nigel 14/03/25This is on the edge of the village, 1km walk to pubs/cafe and trail, but is less than 1 minute from Dinas Rock and a fabulous walk to yr eira waterfall. Near perfect location for ability to just walk out and walk for a couple of days, for longer stays other trails are only short distance by car. Private garden with a dog poo bin outside the back gate, additional cafe in village hall round the corner but only open on Fridays and Saturdays.
Tried both pubs and cafe and went to each more than once as all lovely and varied. Would definitely recommend property and location.
Also really helpful maps in the property to assist with planning the day.
Would highly recommend accommodation and location and will hopefully return soon.read moreread lessGiovanna 24/02/25Wonderful place and locación - can’t wait to rebook!read moreread less - Alex 17/02/25Great little place, clean and tidy. Small, yet the layout was perfect and we didn't feel cramped. Bed was super comfy. The log burner was amazing.read moreread lessRachel 11/02/25Exceptional 😀 - Perfect location for walking.

- Carly 13/01/25Thankyou for a lovely stay we would most definitely come again.read moreread lessJafrina 27/12/24We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this spotlessly clean house, perfectly located right on the doorstep of Dinas Rocks. Peter and Lydia were exceptional hosts, providing clear rules and prompt responses that made our experience seamless.
The house is thoughtfully equipped with everything you might need—board games, a TV, and even a cozy log wood burner that made our evenings extra special. Restaurants within walking distance were a bonus, offering plenty of dining options.
As we stayed over Christmas Day, Peter and Lydia went above and beyond by adding special touches like a beautifully decorated Christmas tree and festive decorations in the living room. It made our holiday stay feel truly magical.
We can’t recommend this place enough and will certainly be visiting again. Thank you, Peter and Lydia, for a memorable stay!read moreread less - Alastair 08/11/24Fantastic location right outside Dina’s Rock, walk straight into National Park, perfect for walkers. Delicious food in local pubs, bistro, can’t fault it. Property clean, comfortable and warm. My only criticism is I’d asked if garden was secure, but sadly it wasn’t, it was 3’ high and quite flimsy with gaps. We didn’t have faith in our recent rescue dog to stay put in the garden, so we had to go out for toilet breaks which is tedious. But, other than that we’d definitely return with a better trained dog hopefully! 😀read moreread lessPaul 04/11/24Nice spot, warm, homely and spacious. The location was ideal for out door activities.read moreread less
- Janet 28/10/24Lovely short stay. Clean and tidy very Cosy. Close to 3 pub/ restaurant in walking distance.
Would definitely recommend.
Good communication with information on walks etc.read moreread lessSteven 23/10/24great place to stay, very clean and good size. 😀 - Good size and very clean. Great walk in shower/wet room. Great location and always had parking available. 😞 - Nothingread moreread less - Jamie 30/09/24The cottage was very clean, garden perfect (and contained) for dogs. Waterfall walks on your doorstep and peaceful location. Nice selection of homely products provided (cleaning, soaps, towels, teas/coffees etc.). Loved the log burner. Very much enjoyed our stay.read moreread lessDonna 27/09/24The cottage was spotless and the décor was good. Loved that the heating was on upon our arrival on a very wet miserable day! The cottage is set in a very quiet area, literally just around the corner from Dina’s Rock and just minutes away from various tourist attractions and landmarks. We felt safe and secure throughout our stay.
Communication was seamless, the host was responsive and considerate, even assisting with a slightly earlier check in which was much appreciated.
We visited the local eateries/pubs and they were all lovely. We had breakfast in Sgwd Gwladys which was fantastic, lunch in the Angel and drinks in the Old White Horse, everyone is super friendly in the White Horse!
Planning to explore more of Wales in the near future and would definitely return. Thank you!read moreread less - Helen 16/09/24Our stay at Canyon Cottage exceeded our expectations. It was incredibly clean, not a single spider in sight, despite it being their mating season when they tend to make an appearance in homes. The bed was very comfortable and we both slept really well. The bungalow was warm and cosy with an excellent wet room. We felt very relaxed and didn’t want to leave after our 3 night stay.
The location for exploring the Brecon Beacons was spot on. Neither of us had visited this area of Wales before, and we will definitely be back. We loved the four waterfall walk, it was such an amazing experience to be able to walk behind one of the falls - I’d recommend getting there early to avoid the crowds. There are so many other waterfalls to see in the area too. Another first for us, was having a tour of a whiskey distillery, very interesting, and, of course, we came away with a tasty bottle of Penderyn which we are looking forward to opening.
Thank you to Pete and Lydia.read moreread lessJo 09/09/24We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Canyon Cottage, it’s in a great location. Lots of lovely walks on the doorstep and a short drive to waterfalls.
Cottage was very clean and tidy, had everything we needed. Great stay - thank you Peter.read moreread less - Lisa 26/08/24Perfect place to explore waterfalls. Everything was clean and some helpful essentials in the home.
Peter & Lydia was always quick to respond to questions and had recommendations for local trails too.
Peaceful and friendly area. Never met so many friendly locals!
Highly recommend the village hall cafe too. Perfect food after a long walk.read moreread lessRev Faye 23/08/24Canyon Cottage was beautiful and in a great location. I’d definitely stay there again.
It was disappointing for our two children that the WiFi wasn’t working and phone signal isn’t great there. If we’d known before we arrived we could have brought our own portable router. Something to consider letting others know before they arrive.
A small point regarding the enclosed garden.. smaller dogs can get under the gate so might be worth attaching some mesh to the bottom.
Overall a great stay for our first trip to Wales. We will definitely be visiting wales again.read moreread less - Amanda 19/08/24Loved the accommodation, location and provision! Great value for a family break! 😀 - Great location for the outdoors, activities and local pubs! Good size property well equipped, lovely bedding and living space. Nice welcome box, thank you! Great communication prior to and during stay. 😞 - Wi-fi was poor and although we didn’t go for this; it is always useful for researching the locality.read moreread lessJean-Baptiste 12/08/24Great place, spacious, comfy beds, nice kitchen, 2 TVs with large sofas, fireplace, lovely garden. Very very nice!
Only drawback is phone signal is extremely weak there, and if TalkTalk (the local internet provider) is having a bad day, you will have no way to go online/contact anyone! Not ideal for bored teenagers!read moreread less - Justyna Golos 06/08/24Perfect in each aspect. Just what you need for a weekend or a longer stay. Clean, tranquil, well equipped with clean towels on arrival and cleaning products and utensils available. Cosy little garden with two sets of door, table, chairs and bench. Good water pressure in a wet room (a bonus if you travel with dogs), central heating and free WiFi. We liked the maps on the walls and supply of leaflets about local attraction and places to see.The Cottage is in a hard to beat location literally at the doorstep of Dinas Rock and yellow trail leading to the Four Falls however you have Waterfall Country behind The Angel Inn which in our view is more spectacular that The Four Falls - hidden gem, quiet and scenic. Moderate walking skills required but still good to take the dogs. We didn't need to drive to any attractions apart from Co-Op in the village (3mins drive).read moreread lessSophia 05/08/24wonderful place to stay. lovely little village. lots of restaurants/pubs within walking distance, lovely walking trails nearby. the Airbnb was clean and tidy, however. there we so many spiders! a daddy long legs in every corner of every room. I think I counted 6 in my bedroom, they were literally everywhere! this put us off quite a bit. they were even in the cupboards. most of then were massive, so it's not as if they were out of sight.
another thing that annoyed us was the cleaning fee. £50! we thought that was very pricey. considering the checking out rules were "strip the beds, put the linen and towels in bags, take out and replace the bin bags, sanitise all of the surfaces, clean the dishes and put them away". now I would have done this anyway regardless of the rules. however a £50 cleaning fee is way too much. all they would have had to do for the next guests is put clean sheets on the beds, and hoover (which we did anyway). we're undecided if we'd return. thank you for reading 🙂read moreread less - Ralph 02/08/24A lovely place to stay and go for various hikes (very) near & far.
And a great place to adjust your work-life balance in the right way!
It’s easy to find.
Plenty of room to park your car.
A very nice backyard.
Just enough WiFi to find what you need without getting lost in time.
A relaxing shower for when you get back home after a day filled with Welsh nature.
And a nice living to relax infront of either the fireplace or the television.
Having a car or bike is very convenient (a necessity) for shopping.read moreread lessLisa 01/08/24Perfect place to explore waterfalls. Everything was clean and some helpful essentials in the home.

The bungalow was very comfortable and we loved the layout with the open plan kitchen and living room. it is in a quiet dead end road with only a few other houses. It is an easy drive to the Brecons or you can walk straight from the house for river and waterfalls.read moreread lessCaroline 05/07/24Wonderful 😀 - The location was wonderful for me, so close to nature. The house was peaceful, spacious, beds very comfortable, nice outside area, high standard of accomadation, very clean. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend Canyon Cottage 😃 😞 - I am not a fan of wet rooms myself. It would have been helpful to have a mop not a brush to clear the water afterwards. The knives were quite blunt. There is no dishwasher or washing machine. This was fine for me as I like washing up. It just seemed strange considering the high standard/cost of the accommodation.read moreread less
- Ros 28/06/24Wonderful location and lovely accommodation. The only negative was the lack of quality kitchen utensils etc. Also the wifi connection is rather poor due to the location. Otherwise great and Peter was extremely helpful when we had a problem with streaming on the tv.read moreread lessDebra 23/06/24Fantastic, we loved every minute 😀 - The location was fantastic for the walks we wanted to do 😞 - A closer pub would have been nice but still not an issue as we knew before we bookedread moreread less

- Deborah 15/04/24perfect base for a walking holiday, walks in all directions, didn't need the car. the property had everything we needed to relax after walking all day.
will be coming back again in the future.read moreread lessNicky 12/04/24What a little gem Canyon Cottage turned out to be. Tucked away in a very peaceful cul-de-sac, this accommodation met with all our needs. The location is superb; we began our stay on Day 1 with a dog-walk along footpaths that led us along a beautiful river and to some stunning waterfalls. More walking was completed for the rest of our stay; the location put us in a great position to reach some magnificent walks. Within walking distance, we found three fabulous eateries - breakfast at Gwladys and evening meals at The Angel and The White Horse - fantastic! We found the accommodation to be very comfortable, very clean and very relaxing. The log fire was a real bonus, the wi-fi terrific and the enclosed garden meant our dog was entirely safe. We'd be happy to recommend this as a great place to stay.read moreread less - Michele 08/04/24My son, dog and I have had the most wonderful stay at Peter's cottage, which was super clean, spacious and had everything we needed to feel right at home. The location is perfect for exploring all the stunning waterfalls nearby. Thank you too for the very thoughtful box of treats. Will definitely be back!read moreread lessMatt 05/04/24Peter’s place was so ideal for our family break. It’s literally seconds away from scenic waterfall trails and easily accessible if you want to venture further into the Brecon Beacons. The local area is friendly and had some great pubs who also cater for little ones.
The space itself was clean, spacious and relaxing. We didn’t want to leave!read moreread less - Sophie 01/04/24Great stay here with our two dogs, lots of space. Excellent walks right on the door step.read moreread lessRachel 01/04/24After an arduous journey on a Friday hitting 2 accidents we finally arrived at Canyon Cottage nearly 2 hours late but what a find. Right by Dinas rock & start of many walks. Two excellent pubs & coffee shop nearby within walking distance. If you’re after a comfortable base & love scenic walks & waterfalls this is a perfect place to stay. Ate at The Old White Horse twice, really good quality food. Would definitely recommend & book a stay here again. Thank you Peter & Lydia excellent communication throughout.read moreread less
