| Porthmawr is an intriguing mix of experiences. It’s historic and contemporary. It lives and breathes the past – but is decidedly of our times. Set in three acres of sweeping gardens in the charming Brecon Beacons town of Crickhowell, it offers something you don’t often find – bed and breakfast with the accent on luxury. But then again, Porthmawr is no ordinary house.
It’s a splendid Grade II Regency mansion complete with 15th-century castellated gatehouse that has been refurbished with great style and artistic flair. Plush furnishings, antiques and quirky modern artwork sit side-by-side in its elegant, tall-ceilinged rooms. It’s a theme that is carried through into the bedrooms, which combine classical features with modern influences. |
