This former workhouse infirmary has been transformed into a luxury group accommodation with nine bathrooms - yes, that's one per bedroom! Perfect for large family gatherings or that annual friend getaway where nobody has to fight over shower time.

The Brecon Canal towpath offers gentle walks when you're feeling less energetic or slightly hungover from the night before.

Accommodation includes two super king rooms, two king-size rooms, two zip-and-link kings (flexible as twins), one double and two single rooms. Most bedrooms have smart TVs and en-suite facilities - one even features a free-standing bath for those who fancy a proper soak. The catering kitchen has a gas range with double oven, making group meals a breeze.

Nearby attractions include Big Pit at Blaenavon (industrial heritage that's actually interesting), The National Show Caves (underground adventures without the claustrophobia) and Brecon Mountain Railway (15 miles, 25-minute drive). Fishing is available on-site for those who prefer their activities sedentary.

The games room with pool table and the seven-person hot tub are crowd favorites at Dardy House. After a day exploring, nothing beats soaking in bubbling water with a glass of something cold while debating who's cooking dinner.

A fabulous weekend spent with friends at this beautiful house. It has everything and more. Alex left us prosecco on arrival which was very much appreciated and she was available for any problems which may have occurred. The house was beyond our expectations. Beautifully decorated and so much space. The views are gorgeous too. Easy to get onto thRead moree canal for walking and a short walk into Crickhowell. It was even better than we expected. Hide
Janet
Absolutely fantastic property. Fabulous views. Really comfortable. Immaculately clean. Very responsive host. I actually cant fault this place. Having been let down by Airbnb with less than 24 hours before 15 people were heading to Wales, Alex was amazing. Nothing was too much trouble. Wholeheartedly recommend.
