Aber Glamping

Roll up all you outdoorsy types, as there are plenty of Brecon Beacons National Park walks with direct access from the farm, or are just a short hop in the car away. The departure points for hikes up to peaceful Llyn y Fan Fach lake, the Bronze Age burial chamber on Pen y Fan or Usk Reservoir are all under half an hour’s drive. Slightly more sedate walking can be found in the market town of Brecon (30 minutes), which has a lovely stroll along the Usk river, and afterwards you can reward yourself with a nose around indie art galleries or sink a crafty pint in a riverside pub. If you’re travelling with the kids, a day at the National Showcaves Centre for Wales (15 minutes) will keep them entertained with dinosaur trails and guided tours of vast underground caverns – and for a special treat, Llanddeusant Red Kite Feeding Station (half an hour) offers the chance to get up close to majestic birds of prey.
