This was a perfect break for us. The shepherds hut was amazing, really cute, fabulous facilities with the hot tub & sauna, wonderful location, for walks and a bustling village not far away. Loved having the sheep and lambs at the back of the shepherds hut, great scenery when in the hot tub. The owners were lovely, explained everything we needed to Read moreknow, and the little wine & welsh cakes as a welcome gift were very well received. Will definitely be back. Hide

Wonderfully well equipped set up of shepherds hut, hot tub, sauna in private garden. Very easy to escape from the world while staying here. Abergavenny close enough for groceries and restaurants; however, the owners cafe being on site meant a lovely breakfast was something we enjoyed during our stay. Hosts were very friendly, helpful and welcoming.
