The kitchen is equipped well enough to make a cooked breakfast and heat up food. Don't try making a Sunday Roast...but why would you on a mini-break? Excellent walking right from the door so no need to use your car. Space outside for muddy boots and kit. I would definitely recommend Waterfall Lodge. Thank you to Peter. read less

Loved the Christmas tree and lights, made it feel a little more festive. Having the Smart TV and wi-fi access helped me keep the troops entertained as well as keep in touch. It would have been nice to know that condiments such as salt and pepper as well as foil, clingfilm etc were available as I wouldn't have had to bring my own. All appliance manuals were easy to follow and some great maps downstairs helped me to plan walks. A stunning and easy-to-follow waterfall walk starting from the village a few minutes down the road. There had been a lot of rain which, although making paths very muddy and at times slippery, produced some impressive sights. Did not hear any of the neighbours - very peaceful and quiet. read less

We were very impressed with the whole setup for us - the house was a great size (with a separate isolated room for baby, plus our room and a spare bedroom left over), it had all the essentials (tea, coffee, milk, soaps, towels, etc etc), was clean and tidy, well and recently finished. And obviously the location was amazing, albeit we didn’t get a chance to enjoy it as we would have liked to given the weather at the time. It was still so lovely and the just the sound of running water / falls / rapids from out the front and back of the property makes it very relaxing. We honestly couldn’t have asked for more from the property and Peter the host was excellent in his communication throughout. It’s worth adding the wood burner and ready supply of wood and lighters was especially nice.
Oliver 27/12/21
As far as surroundings, accessibility to walks is fantastic but there are also a couple of pubs within walking distance, a co-op shop about 8 min drive away and I understand the village hall just around the corner does cakes and coffees too.
We’ll definitely be back after our experience here and have already recommended it to our friends.

Peter provided plenty of information about the lodge and its location. The lodge itself was perfect for us, with a fantastic location close to pubs, the village and with many walks on its doorstep. The house was very well equipped and comfortable, with plenty of additional information about local walks and attractions.
A perfect place to stay for a walking holiday, I would highly recommend it and hope to stay again. read lessWe had a good week at this house. It was clean and furniture was good quality. Crisp fresh bedding and towels. Great to have the 2 full bathrooms.

location was close to start of one of the long 4 waterfall walks and nice walk the opposite way down river towards Glyneath.
However do be aware this is definitely not a lodge- it is a compact house on a small social housing estate. It has been nicely renovated but feel the 'lodge' description is misleading.
Basic kitchen utensils and equipment were supplied but as we were trying to cook it could have definitely been better with a bigger range of kitchen equipment like serving dishes, quality pots and pans, salt cellar,table mats etc. Dining table in kitchen was snug for 4 people. Only mirror in twin room so hair drying was tricky all bedrooms- and such an easy fix. A shame that just a bit more thought was not given to fitting out the house fully. I did email owner before writing this with my feedback but had no response.
As such felt this was overpriced for the level of facilities
Excellent food and service at Old White horse down the road- do recommend booking, they were very busy.
Also check out cafe/cake sale on Friday and Saturday in the village hall next-door. read lessA nice peaceful location and very comfortable place.

Peter is very helpful and shared information about the area. The place is very cosy, clean and in a very quiet place with lots of elderly neighbours which is really the only negative.

We were so impressed by the extra precautions taken for covid, which really did make us feel very comfortable as we were slightly nervous to go away, it was spotless and lots of disinfectant left around for us to use!

The Lodge is part of of a few semi detached buildings in the same complex.
There is easy resident parking right outside the apartment which was great.
When you enter the apartment from the back of building you are greeted by tons of information about the area and plenty of brochures to keep you occupied for the trip.
The apartment is very spacious and has a very large downstairs Bathroom and Kitchen. The lounge room area is also quite spacious with plenty of seating for a full sized family.
You will also find a double room downstairs near the front door which has two bunk beds.
On the tops floor is another very big bathroom which is actually a wet room! very clean and plenty of water pressure.
Also on the top floor is two very big bedrooms. 1 x double bed and 1 x twin beds.
The location of the lodge is absolutely perfect. The river and lot's of waterfall walks are literally a stones throw away. You can also hear a river/waterfall at night from the lodge which is lovely.
The local pubs are also only a 12-15min walk away. We ate at The Old Whitehorse Inn twice on our stay and the service and food was excellent. You also have a co-op with everything you need around a 7-10min drive from the apartment which was perfect.
I can thoroughly recommend this lodge for a weekend away or even a mid week stay. Even if the weather is bad you have a nice cosy place to stay with a fire place. read lessA very clean, well-equipped and nicely furnished house at the end of the village, fantastic walks from the cottage.

The pictures don't do the space justice. Our only regret is that we didn't book ourselves to stay longer. With all the hiking trails, caves, waterfalls and other outdoor activities, often within walking distance, we could have easily stayed double the time and enjoyed more activities. The Old White Horse Inn Restaurant was an amazing place to eat great food and we highly recommend those visiting to take a quick walk down the road and dine there. Peter was quick to respond when I reached out to him for minor items twice during our stay. He made us very confident that if we came across any problems, he would be available to help quickly.

Jonathon 13/09/18
We visited the beautiful waterfalls, which are so close you can go for a short evening walk or equally a much longer all day trek. They also have waterfall routes to suit a variety of abilities and the nearest ones are accessible for all including those with wheelchairs and buggies etc.
We discovered a nearby stream (about 4 miles away on the national park just north of Ystradfellte) where our children spent several hours paddling and we didn't see another soul!
Our other big highlight was a visit to the Big Pit, Blaenavon, which is about 40minutes away. The tour underground was one of the best things we have ever done - truly unforgettable and I would recommend it very highly if you get the opportunity.
Finally, we were touched by how friendly everybody was everywhere we went. read lessBrilliant location, with a clean and modern interior. Enough room for 6 adults without feeling too cramped.

The glassware sparkles, the huge tub delightful, beds comfortable and soft, WiFi excellent, fireplace stocked with wood, outdoor areas front and back, TV has many choices.... just a lovely, warm and inviting place to relax and regroup after a day of exploring - and there are so many activities within a 30 to 60 minute drive.

Great toasty fire, very well equipped and spotless. Really appreciated all the recycling facilities. Comfy beds too. Wonderful waterfall walks on the doorstep and a good spot to explore the national park from. Our favourite waterfall was Horseshoe Falls as we went very early and nobody else was around. Pen Y Fan was a fun climb and Crickhowell was pretty. Made the mistake of eating at the Angel Inn - eek. The Old White Horse Inn is better as pub food goes - as recommended by Peter. read less

Something within driving distance which allowed us to explore the UK. This is our first Airbnb experience and glad to say that we had a wonderful few days at Waterfall Lodge. Upon arrival, you might think the setting is a little odd, but you walk into an absolute jewel of a property. Modern and retro, clean and cosy, clean new linen (bed and bath) and internet. We did the Gunpowder Trail and then the Four Falls walk on the first day and then the The National Showcaves Centre for Wales on the second day. Amazing scenery on the walk and the caves are worth the money. Evenings were spent in The Old White Horse Inn (10-15 minute walk from Waterfall Lodge) and then relaxing back at the lodge in front of the log burner. We all loved it and said we'd love to go back sometime and do it all again. Thanks Peter for being a great host 🙂 read less

A perfect holiday for walking in the day and relaxing at the well equipped house with a log on the fire in the evening with a movie or two.
I will definitely go back next year. read lessVår familj på två vuxna och två barn bodde bekvämt i det här huset. Vi reste dit med tåg och buss och det gick bra.

Sköna sängar och händigt med två toaletter (duschrum & badrum). Huset är tämligen litet men det känns rymligt och fullt tillräckligt för vår familj. Det finns ingen matbutik i Pontneddfechan, något man bör vara medveten om man reser utan bil som vi gjorde. Bra uteplats. Det är möjligt att ta av sig och lämna leriga kängor utanför ytterdörren under tak, tro mig, det är viktigt eftersom det inte går att undvika lera om du är på vattenfallsjakt. Vi kan verkligen rekommendera det här huset och planerar själva att återkomma. read less

Great for small/medium size family or (as I plan to return to do) those who enjoy mountain biking, with Afan forest and bike park Wales. The house is located on quiet, small residential estate; met one the neighbours who was very pleasant. Inside the house has been decorated in a contemporary style and had everything you will need; high point being the wet room, perfect after working up a sweat! All furniture is top quality solid wood, and all elecrical equipment to a very good standard; Peter has even got USB chargers built into most plug sockets for charging mobile devices, very nice touch! Outside has ample space to store bikes and wet kit, and a nearby river is a nice sound effect!
We ate out both nights at the two local pubs (which are a stones throw from each other); a minutes drive or 10 mins walk; both served good food and service was spot on and friendly.
All in all Peter has built the perfect, clean, tidy and comfortable place to stay with all the bases covered in a beautiful part of South Wales! Thanks for a brilliant stay, no doubt we will return; highly recommend. read lessPerfect for what we needed. Close to the waterfalls, amazing scenery right there a short hike away.

Lots of space at the back for bikes and clobber, and an outside tap to hose down dirty bikes. The Old white horse pub is only 10 mins walk, and serves good grub if you don't fancy cooking. Comfy bed, cosy living room, great shower. Very reasonably priced for 2, absolute bargain for more people! Totally recommended! read less
