Host & Stay | Dafad Du

Summary:
Situated in the foothills of the Black Mountain range, Dafad Du is a luxury shepherds hut nestled in the countryside with gorgeous views down the Wye Valley and away to the Brecon Beacons. This beautifully designed space, along with its glorious location, create the perfect setting for a romantic escape for two. Boasting a log burner, a twin copper bath and a patio with outdoor seating, Dafad Du will provide memories to treasure.

The Space:
This wonderful countryside location creates the perfect setting to get away from it all. After a day exploring the Welsh countryside, light up the fire, wrap up in a blanket and watch the moon rise over the mountains.

Dafad Du comes equipped with a king size bed for lazy lie-ins and a compact kitchen for cosy suppers indoors. However, when the weather permits, spend your nights snuggled up around the fire-pit toasting marshmallows or watching the stars in the pristine night sky.

On arrival you will find your fridge stocked with a luxury hamper of local produce - ready for a sumptuous breakfast in the morning.
