Our most amazing beautiful doggy with super powers and zest for adventure - Leila was a โone of a kindโ doggy and I was truly blesssed to have her as my loyal companion, constantly at my side for over 13 years.

๐ก๐๐ถ You have been the star of Brecon Retreat and helped us set the standards for being truly dog friendly. From chief tester of sampling shampoos, dog beds to chomping your way through treats that passed it into the welcome baskets - we were the 1st accommodation to provide dog welcome baskets and now itโs expected across the hospitality industry!
You made it to the front of the newspaper and national magazines, when we won โDog Friendliest Place to stay in UKโ ๐๏ธ ๐คฉ๐ฐ
You starred in videos to promote the Brecon Beacons National Park as a Dog Friendly destination to explore ๐ฅ ๐ฌ
Come rain or shine weโve explored together nature reserves, country parks woodlands, waterfalls, reservoirs, lakes, underground caves, castles, hills and mountains!

Who wouldโve thought that at the grand age of 12, you would scoop rosettes in the local dog shows, winning Best Dog in Show! ๐๐ฅฐ๐ฅ
I first met you with no hair, undergoing chemotherapy and you would snuggle on me for hours at a time to keep me company ๐ค๐. The only real time you would ever sneak upstairs, was to lay by my bedside, when I was really unwell ๐ ๐ค ๐๐ผ
In your later years, you used to sneak up onto the sofa and would get down before weโd come down in the morning. On more that one occasion you laid on the remote control and accidentally turned on the tv to the loudest setting and then would watch me sprint downstairs at 3am to turn it off and gave me that look to say โwho did thatโ ๐บ๐๐
Weโve holidayed together in a range of places from camping and glamping to stylish hotels and luxury pe
Happy Halloween from us all at Brecon Retreat

๐ก๐ A warm welcome awaits you at Brecon Retreat...
What a long winter it has been for us all!
As the Welsh saying does: โDaw eto haul ar frynโ, which means โThe sun will shine again on the hillโ And indeed it has in the Brecon Beacons. โ๏ธโฐ
Despite all the months of uncertainty and challenges, we are now delighted to offer a warm welcome and accept bookings from:

๐ฅ Our 'Book with Confidence' policy covers regional and national lock-downs offering you a FULL refund. We can also offer you 'Booking Protect' for extra peace of mind, should you not already have some sort of travel insurance cover in place. This is highly recommended to cover for positive Covid test/isolation and other illnesses, or other eventualities that may impact you from arriving for your holiday.
We look forward to welcoming you soon!
With love from Brecon,

P.S. Here's a reminder of what we offer...
> A choice of five unique luxury self-catering properties in the Brecon Beacons
> Minimum rental period over a weekend is 3 nights arriving Friday, or 4 nights mid-week arriving Monday, but you can decide to arrive, or depart within this timeframe to suit you.
> Both short breaks are priced the same, so if you stay mid-week you effectively get one night FREE!
> A full 7 night retreat works out much better value, being just an extra 30% more than a short break.
> To reserve your dates we would just require 25% deposit and the remaining balance would be due 8 weeks prior to arrival.
> All properties are dog friendly (ยฃ20 per dog, per stay)

๐๐ New holiday homes **UPDATE**
How was your summer? Did you holiday abroad, or in the UK? Okay, maybe we were a little optimistic to have the new barns ready this summer... ๐
However, itโs been absolutely non-stop on site. Weโve had various challenges along the way and with each barn being so different, makes the whole process a little more complex. But, Iโm pleased to report theyโre all taking good shape now and the vision is starting to become reality.
I promise the wait will be worth it - these are going to be super luxurious, somewhere special to make new memories with the people you love. So be sure to tag and share this with the ones who need a little hint and nudge in the right direction, so they can follow our progress too. ๐๐
After lots of my brain-cell bursting, I can now reveal the names of new barns...
(๐ฅ drumroll)
๐The old Shearing Shed
Natureโs Rest๐ฟ
๐ฆAlcapa Lookout
Iโll be sharing floor plans and interior design schemes very soon, so stay tuned!
All being well, weโll be striving to get the barns ready for December 2019. ๐๐ค๐ป
In the meantime, we do have a few short breaks remaining during Autumn in our existing homes if you wanting a getaway sooner. Have a nose at the website for latest availability.
Catch up with you all again soon!
