The Details
The Courtyard Wing is an opulent retreat that makes up a part of the exquisite Penpont Estate. This family run estate sits on the banks of the River Usk in the heart of the Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) National Park, offering you and your loved ones the perfect base from which to explore the incredible surrounding scenery.
A separate wing of a large house, the Courtyard Wing has its own entrance through an enclosed flagged courtyard. Sleeping a total of 16 guests, this beautifully restored Grade I listed building was originally built in the 1660’s and is now the ideal spot for your next break with friends and family.
When you enter, you’ll fall in love with the abundant old-world charm on display. This is a classy retreat, with rustic touches like exposed wooden beams and striking feature fireplaces.

This is the perfect place to get comfy on the big sofas and open a bottle of wine as you chat the afternoon away.

Here, you’ll find all of the amenities you need to whip up delicious meals for your group, and a giant dining table that will comfortably seat everyone. This sets the scene for grand, social meals that can make your stay extra-special.
On warmer days, you’ll be able to dine alfresco in your peaceful garden. There’s a big dining table here for summer lunches or evening meals as the sun begins to set. There’s also a BBQ for you to use along with a selection of home-produced charcoal. After dinner, make your way to the south-facing terrace where you can enjoy an evening tipple as the stars come out above.
When night falls, there are six lovely bedrooms for you to choose from. On the first floor there are two bedrooms, one twin and one double room.

There are additional small children's beds available in two of the double bedrooms and one of the family rooms - available on request.
