Luxury self-catering holiday cottages in the Black Mountains
As the most easterly of the four ranges of hills which comprise the Brecon Beacons National Park, the Black Mountains straddle the border between England and Wales and makes for a popular destination.
Dominating the eastern part of the Brecon Beacons National Park, a holiday in the Brecon Beacons affords families and couples the opportunity to discover the great outdoors on foot; meander through the majestic mountains, disappear within its flora and fauna and embrace the fresh air and the mountain views. Laced with rivers and cloaked in grass and heather, this impressive range of red sandstone hills make for a tranquil destination for hiking and mountain walking.
For adrenaline junkies, the Black Mountain’s colossal northern ridge offers superb opportunities for gliding, hang gliding and paragliding. Tackle the hike of Pen-y-Fan - the highest point in southern Britain - and reward yourself with spectacular views of the Central Beacons and the Black Mountains waiting from the top. After a day of stomping the hills, kick off your boots, relax and unwind at your unique, luxury self-catering holiday hideaway.
