Good location great for walking. Little bit tired, needs new mattresses and settee, a deep clean and general maintenance. Too much duplicate crockery , pans etc. Food left in fridge from previous occupants.

We had a wonderful stay at Zebra House. The welcome biscuits and keyring were a lovely touch when we arrived. With 2 teenagers and a dog, the house was big enough to meet our needs with fabulous walks on our doorstep. There is everything you could possibly need in the kitchen - the oven is brilliant! The outside space was lovely and secure for our crazy Springer Spaniel with gorgeous views and the odd glimpse of the train passing through the mountains. I have stayed in dog friendly accommodation before, but these came with many rules about the dog. Zebra House was dog friendly in every sense of the word - the dog room had beds, toys, poo bags, bowls and handy hooks for her lead etc. It was a cozy, comfortable and welcoming 'home' to come back to every day after our adventures. Thank you!

Great base for adventuring the Brecon Beacons, the house was extremely dog friendly and had everything we needed. The owner was extremely helpful when we had an issue and sorted it out straight away. Would definitely recommend
