Location
Godre Pentre (Welsh for end-of-the-village) is situated in the village of Ystradfellte between Abadare and Brecon, conveniently near the New Inn and caves such as the Little Neath River Cave. Pant Mawr Pot and Porth-y-Ogof. South Wales Caving Club at Penwyllt and the extensive Ogof Ffynnon Ddu cave system is about a 20 minute drive away. The area is however otherwise rather remote and you need to ensure that you have a basic food supply and petrol in your tank! There are plenty of other activities such walking on the Brecon Ffans the famous 'waterfall walk' and climbing at Dinas Rock.
The cottage post code is CF44 9JF, grid ref SN 93165 13681, or what3words address ///butlers.breakaway.jams
