This property is on the outskirts of Abergavenny (1.5 miles), a charming market town with plenty of cafés, pubs and shops selling yummy local produce. You’ll be just 0.5 miles from the lovely Brecon and Monmouthshire Canal, opening up opportunities for scenic walks along the towpath and leisurely boat rides. For those who enjoy travel on two wheels, the Sustrans cycle network passes through the nearby village of Llanfoist (0.5 miles), making this an ideal spot for biking enthusiasts. The property has space for eight people over its four bedrooms so is wonderful for a family group or holiday with friends.

The three-storey accommodation benefits from a spacious sitting room featuring gorgeous original beams and an impressive stone inglenook fireplace featuring a real flame gas fire. You’ll be well set up for entertainment thanks to the CD system and a large Smart TV. In the cottage-style kitchen, cook up yummy feasts using that local produce and sit down to leisurely meals in the light and airy dining room. Steps from here lead down to a second sitting room/snug, offering a quiet retreat with armchairs and an ornamental fireplace. You’ll have a spacious courtyard garden, too, where pets and children can run free while you sizzle up some yumminess on the BBQ provided.

Located within the Brecon Beacons National Park, the cottage is excellently situated for enjoying outdoor activities including hiking, rock climbing and horse riding. You’ll have easy access to gorgeous natural features like Clydach Gorge (3.5 miles), Sugar Loaf (5 miles) and the Llangattock Escarpment (5.5 miles), and after all that exploration you’ll surely appreciate a quiet drink or dinner in a lovely country pub – hopefully with spectacular views.

The cottage, whilst comfortable and clean. The online description might be improved a little by mentioning the plethora of steep stairs. Arrival instructions were perfect, as were the couple of bottles of wine. Beds were comfortable, sofas a little too deep for comfort (but that really is a per person thing)

3rd time visiting. Love the comfort of the cottage, a home from home feeling. Allows everyone to have their own space along side ample room to spend time together. Beautiful area. Lovely canal walks. More challenging walks close by if tempted . Good area for shopping and exploring. Close to shops and fab Indian takeaway near by. Skirrid inn is a muRead morest visit (10 minutes drive). Cannot recommend highly enough. Hide

A lovely 3-night stay over the New Year with the family. I would recommend this cottage for large groups or a party with a teenager, as its spacious and one half of the cottage can operate as a separate annex. Very clean and a short drive from the town centre.

A lovely comfortable cottage with tasteful decor; spacious with great facilities. The owners made us feel really welcome going the extra mile with Easter decorations and eggs as well as Prosecco - a lovely start to our holiday. The location is ideal for exploring the area; great dog walks straight from the cottage and very convenient for shops; AbeRead morergavenny and the Black Mountains. We would love to visit again.
