Brecon Beacons Holidays: Nature, Luxury & Welsh Charm Combined

Rolling green hills, rugged peaks, deep valleys, and star-filled skies — Brecon Beacons holidays invite you to escape the everyday and reconnect with nature, history, and yourself. Located in South and Mid Wales, the Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons National Park) is a playground for outdoor lovers, slow travellers, and anyone seeking peace and perspective.

Whether you’re hiking up Pen y Fan, the park’s highest peak, exploring dramatic waterfalls in the Fforest Fawr Geopark, or enjoying a leisurely canal-side walk near Crickhowell or Brecon, the region offers unforgettable moments in every season.

With the Rarebits Collection, you can enjoy all of this wild beauty while staying in distinctive, characterful accommodation that reflects the charm of the region. From elegant country house hotels to luxury inns and self-catering hideaways, each Rarebits property is independently owned and full of personality — a perfect blend of style and authenticity.

Brecon Beacons holidays aren’t just about scenic views (though there are plenty). This is a land rich in culture and craft — with thriving farmers markets, bookshops, woollen mills, and artisan producers. Whether you’re sipping Welsh gin by a log fire, indulging in fine dining sourced from nearby farms, or stargazing in one of Europe’s first International Dark Sky Reserves, the experience is always immersive and meaningful.
