Tucked above Crickhowell in the village of Llangattock, Ty’r Philip Evan Farm is quietly developing something rather special in the heart of the Usk Valley.
Set within the spectacular landscape of Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) National Park, this working farm combines rural tranquillity, quality accommodation and creative workshop space — offering something that feels both rooted in place and full of possibility.
Positioned at the gateway to the Black Mountains, Ty’r Philip Evan Farm provides an ideal base for walking, cycling and exploring the surrounding hills and valleys. With Crickhowell just below and access to iconic routes across the National Park, it’s a location that speaks directly to outdoor enthusiasts and those seeking a slower pace.
The accommodation blends comfort with countryside authenticity, offering guests a peaceful setting with far-reaching views and direct access to nature.
Alongside its accommodation, Ty’r Philip Evan Farm is also growing its workshop offering — creating space for learning, hands-on making and shared experiences.
From creative and craft-based sessions to skill-sharing gatherings, the workshops are designed to bring people together in an inspiring rural setting. It’s a natural fit for Bannau Brycheiniog’s growing appetite for experiential travel — where visitors want to do more than just stay; they want to learn, connect and create.
At Brecon Beacons Tourism, we know that accommodation and experiences work best hand-in-hand. Businesses that collaborate — accommodation providers linking with workshop hosts, activity providers working alongside hospitality venues — create stronger, longer stays and deeper visitor engagement.
Ty’r Philip Evan Farm represents exactly that kind of opportunity:
This kind of offer strengthens midweek trade, extends seasonal visits and encourages visitors to immerse themselves more fully in the destination.
If you are a local business — from food producers and instructors to guides and activity providers — there may be real potential to collaborate. Workshop-led stays and experience-based breaks are a growing part of the market across Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons).
Ty’r Philip Evan Farm is adding to the richness of what Llangattock and Crickhowell can offer — combining landscape, learning and local connection in one beautiful setting.
