We have just enjoyed our second stay at Basel Cottage and are very impressed by the facilities offered by Sue and Jonah. These include, pitch and putt, a woodland chalet, fire pit and a comfortable outdoor seating area. The cottage itself is spotless and has all of the amenities you would wish for on holiday. It is totally welcoming as are Sue and Jonah and their lovely poodles. Barney made himself very comfortable on my lap. We would recommend Basel Cottage to anyone wishing to tour the Brecons and South Wales generally. Thank you Sue and Jonah for a lovely holiday, we can’t wait to be with you again.

Wow, what a truly amazing time we had. Just back from a three night break (not long enough!!). Prior booking communications were excellent and informative. On arrival we were met by the lovely owners, Sue and Jonah and their gorgeous dogs, Barney and Teddy. Views are incredible, as are the 17 acres which our three Labs really enjoyed including a stream, bluebell wood, all secure and very well maintained. You can really be at peace that your dogs are safe and have so much freedom! The cottage was beautiful, everything you could possibly need, very clean, comfortable and spacious; Sue and Jonah really have thought of everything to make this.

A fabulous relaxing week, helped along by the beautiful sunshine.  Gary had great fun metal detecting and he found a Roman Coin, George III 1/2 Penny, Victorian Penny and many artefacts spanning approximately 300 years!  Ghost our Husky has left his ‘glitter’ in the woods for the birds to enjoy!  A beautiful cottage, lovely and homely.

Another fantastic week even with the weather!  Still the best cottage we have ever stayed in, everything supplied you ever need and more.  Good to see your projects since our last stay, especially your Cabin in the Woods.  Many thanks to you both and the ‘Basel Boys’.  See you again next year.  Jacky, Gary, Ellie & Jasmine x

Thank you Sue and Jonah for a wonderful break.  We’ve really loved the cottage and the wonderful grounds.  Enjoyed the ‘Pitch & Putt’ and the Mulled Wine in the Cabin.  You are wonderful hosts!  Our boys loved going for walks with Barney & Teddy.  It’s the best holiday cottage we have ever been to.  So clean and fresh, just like home from home!  Hope to visit again very soon.  Jayne, Steve, Jack & Joe x
