| About the Bunkhouse |
| The Penstar Bunkhouse was converted from an old barn during the summer of 1996 by the Powell family who have had the farm since 1918. On a working farm the site provides access directly to the Brecon Beacons and to Brecon via the Taff Trail, a recently established long distance walk route. The Bunkhouse is a self-catering facility. |

| Location & Directions |
Only 35 miles north of Cardiff and the M4 motorway, Penstar is easily reached by road. The area is well served by public transport with daily express coaches to Cardiff, the Midlands and Yorkshire. The nearest railway station is at Merthyr Tydfil and a bus connects Brecon to this railway station.
From the centre of Brecon cross the main bridge over the River Usk and drive through Llanfaes. After passing the Esso garage, National Tyres and Brecon Car Sales, turn left immediately opposite the Drovers Arms public house. Drive down Ffwdgrech Road and under the Brecon bypass to a road junction just over a bridge. Follow the middle of the three lanes and continue ahead at the next junction where a road leads off to the left. The lane then descends through wooded area and over another bridge at Waterfalls Cottage. Continue for another mile and turn right at the next junction. At the following junction our farm lane is clearly signposted.
The Penstar Bunkhouse is just 3 miles south of Brecon.
