Beili Helyg Guest House

Beautifully renovated 18th century farm buildings to provide high quality guest rooms, with lovingly restored antique furniture, fabulous views of the beacons and complete peace & quiet.

Walkers & Cyclists welcome. Drying facilites, boot room, and packed lunches available.

Boot and drying room & secure lock up for cycles.

Guests have their own access so you can come & go as you wish, a dining room and guest lounge

We have 16 acres of native woodland and meadows with open views and clean air of the Beacons mountainside, makes this the place to spend some quality time. Guests are welcome to stroll anywhere in the grounds.

There are splendid view of the milky way at night as we have minimal light pollution.

What the photographs cannot show is the complete peace and seclusion, and the sense of freedom of being away from it all.

We can help you plan your walking & cycling routes, +/or drive you to a start point to walk back.

We can provide evening meals & packed lunches. Our home & garden produce is on the menu daily.

Excellent walking/ cycling from the door, open access land is 5 minutes walk.

The guest rooms are formed from the hayloft, cowshed, stable and barns. There are three rooms, two doubles and one twin, which has a further lockable single room attached. The twin beds can be zipped together to form a super king.

We are situated in the central section of the National Park at the head of the beautiful Cwm Cadlan valley which is a National Nature Reserve, in the foothills of the Brecon Beacons

Beili Helyg is ideal for walking with lots of major walks and more unknown routes nearby. We offer a drop off service for you to walk/navigate back to Beili Helyg, from Pont Nedd fechan (a waterfall walk); Dolygaer(the Taff Trail); and Neuadd reservoir (over peaks of Cribyn, Pen y Fan, Corn Du). Caving, cycling, canoeing, climbing, bird watching, wild swimming and horse riding are nearby and fishing is available at rivers and reservoirs for coarse, game and wild trout. Wild fish only at the atmospheric secluded Ystradfellte reservoir.
There is rich geology in this limestone area with waterfalls, caves, shake holes, swallow holes, limestone pavements and evidence of the dinas fault.

Also there are many prehistoric & historic sites to visit. Walk Sarn Helen in the footsteps of the romans, and visit the impressive standing stones of Maen Madoc & Maen Llia.

Many visitors exploring their ancestry visit the local Mormon church at Merthyr Tydfil who have a multitude of records

Relaxing and general lethargy are also recommended. So why not sit in the guest lounge and read a novel with your toes pointed toward a log burning fire with your favourite tipple (we provide free corkage). Or on a warmer day sit out on one of our benches in the woods.
