Experience the beauty of Wales with a stay at this stylishly converted barn on the outskirts of Gilwern. Part of a small complex of holiday cottages, this light and spacious property is ideal for family-friendly break, a getaway with friends, or a romantic retreat for two. Nestled in the southeastern corner of the Brecon Beacons National Park near the market town of Abergavenny, it offers the perfect base to rest and recharge after days spent walking, cycling and enjoying the great outdoors.
Lovingly renovated, this single-storey abode has been beautifully finished throughout with a relaxed rural elegance. Heart of this holiday home is the bright and airy lounge/kitchen/diner. Put your feet up after a day on the trails and sink into the deep corner sofa, patio doors thrown open in warm weather or wood burner roaring on chilly evenings. Take advantage of delicious local produce to prepare home-cooked meals in the beautifully equipped kitchen, then gather around the dining table to share good food and conversation. In warm weather, fire up the BBQ and dine alfresco, enjoying the tranquil orchard views. As night falls, get cosy under the covers of two chic bedrooms: a king-size with en-suite shower room, or a twin room which has use of the family bathroom.
Enjoy a relaxing morning fishing in the farm grounds, or lace up your hiking boots and set off to explore the trails. Considered Britain’s most picturesque canal, the Monmouthshire & Brecon Canal runs through Gilwern and is popular with walkers and cyclists. Or make use of the numerous trails in the surrounding Brecon Beacons. Renowned as a foodie paradise thanks to its annual food festival Abergavenny (4.5 miles) has great food options year round and even a local vineyard on the slopes of Sugar Loaf Mountain (5 miles).
