A spacious ground floor apartment that is perfect for entertaining, set within the Monmouthshire countryside close to the banks of the River Usk and within easy reach of the Wye Valley and Brecon Beacons.

This gorgeous property, situated just 3.5 miles from Usk, is the perfect base for a walking holiday. With routes such as the National Trust’s Usk Valley Walk accessible from your front door, this two-bedroom apartment is ideal for families of four or two couples to explore the stunning South Wales countryside. Head off on a scenic walk around Monkswood and the Usk Valley (3.5 miles), before returning home to dine alfresco on the front patio looking over the hills.

The apartment, which is part of a complex of similar properties, has a welcoming and contemporary feel. The open-plan layout ensures there’s plenty of light, with huge bifold doors that look out towards the patio in the lounge area – draw the curtains at night and snuggle up on the sofa with a film on the Smart TV. The kitchen/diner is fresh and bright with stylish grey and white tones, offering a great spot for breakfast to fuel up for a day of walking. The bedrooms have the same fresh feel with calming neutral tones to help you drift off to sleep. The super-king-size room can be made into small twin beds on request and has a sleek en-suite shower room. The king-size room is spacious and airy, so whichever bedroom you choose you’ll have a restful night’s sleep. Finally, a well-appointed shower room completes the interior. Outside, bask in the sun on the expansive patio, where you’ll find outdoor furniture for al fresco breakfasts and suppers.

History buffs will enjoy visits to Usk Castle (3.5 miles) and White Castle (9.5 miles). The edge of Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) National Park is just 9 miles away, with plenty of walking routes accessible from Crickhowell (13.5 miles). If the kids are with you, take them to Greenmeadow Community Farm (10 miles).
