Amazing views, and 2 very comfortable and well equipped cottages. Very helpful and friendly owners. The swim pool was a real bonus, especially as the rain didn't stop for 4 days. Beautiful gardens and great having a huge secure field for the dogs. Highly recommended.

Beautiful cottage set in Sugar loaf mountains in Pantyghelli, Abergavenny Wales. It was nice to actually get some peace and quiet away from the hustle and bustle of everyday normal life. The resistance pool was fab, could still keep up with my exercises and the gym was brilliant too. Planning going back next year,

Found the property to be in an idyllic setting, countryside, bird's singing, peace and quiet too. A stones throw away is the town of Abergavenny and further on Crickhowell. Excellent market day's. The perfect retreat.

The cottage was great and had everything we needed. We were obsessed with the garden so spent the majority of the time (when not out and about) sat in there. You feel totally surrounded by nature with views that you could never tire off.
