Croeso i Byncws Coed Owen
Coed Owen Bunkhouse is a converted farm barn sleeping up to 26 people on a working Welsh hill farm near Merthyr Tydfil, right within Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) National Park.
The bunkhouse grew from the Rees family’s decision to give one of the farm’s former livestock and wool barns a new life. Many of the original features remain, but inside there is plenty of practical space for groups, with five bedrooms, a large commercial-style kitchen, open-plan dining area and comfortable communal space for relaxing together after a day outside.
What really sets Coed Owen apart is its location. Guests have direct access from the farm onto the mountain, making it possible to head out towards Pen y Fan without first getting back in the car. Walkers can explore more walking routes across Bannau Brycheiniog, while cyclists and mountain bikers have secure storage for bikes and BikePark Wales within easy reach.
The bunkhouse works particularly well for walking and cycling groups, families, clubs, celebrations and outdoor weekends. Accessible facilities include ground-floor sleeping spaces, a twin bedroom and an adapted shower and WC.
Nearby Merthyr Tydfil adds another dimension to a stay, with industrial heritage, places to eat and easy access to the southern side of the National Park.
For groups who want space to gather but still want the mountains to feel genuinely close, Coed Owen offers something increasingly hard to find: straightforward, sociable accommodation rooted in a working Welsh farm and the landscape around it.
