Cwmpadest Farm is a substantial upland holding of about 123 acres set at the head of the Crai Valley in the Brecon Beacons National Park. The handsome six‑bedroom farmhouse occupies a prominent, private position with long views over grazing pasture and the valley beyond. The sale offers flexibility — the whole holding or two lots — appealing to established farmers, buyers seeking a sizeable country home, or those planning livestock or equine use.
The farmstead includes a useful range of traditional and modern outbuildings arranged around the northern end of the holding, supporting continued agricultural use or conversion subject to consents. The current owners have farmed here since the 1960s with a history of prize livestock, and the land is primarily clear grazing pasture suitable for sheep and cattle.
Buyers should note practical considerations of a remote upland property: there is no mobile signal, very slow broadband, and the farmhouse walls are stone with no known insulation (assumed). Heating is by oil-fired boiler to radiators and council tax is described as expensive. The location is rural and quiet — 1.5 miles from Crai hamlet and about 14 miles from Brecon — so daily commuting or services should be planned accordingly.
Overall this is a rare opportunity to acquire a well‑proportioned traditional farm in a national park setting. It suits purchasers who value privacy, productive grazing land and the potential of the range of buildings, while accepting the maintenance and upgrade requirements typical of an early 20th‑century farmhouse.
