Situated in a tranquil spot at the foot of the Skirrid, along the eastern end of the Black Mountains, this delightful shepherd’s hut makes a cosy, quirky and romantic couple’s retreat. Offering relaxing accommodation for two guests, the hut has a range of useful features including a private hot tub, a handy hammock, underfloor heating, and a welcoming wood burner. Enjoying a serene and secluded location along the eastern edge of the Brecon Beacons, this characterful hideaway is perfect for walkers, cyclists, climbers, and nature lovers.

A few steps lead up into the first, and larger, of two huts where you will find the lounge and main sleeping area. Featuring a comfortable double bed, Smart TV, wood burner, kettle and toaster, this cheerful hut also benefits from underfloor heating. A door leads through to the well-appointed shower room. The second, smaller hut houses the kitchen, with a handy dining area and further seating. Back outside, the garden area has a sheltered hot tub for you to unwind in, alongside a BBQ, hammock, and a choice of outdoor furniture.

This cute retreat is a fabulous base for discovering a stunning part of the Brecon Beacons National Park. Eager climbers can attempt the Sugar Loaf (5 miles) or the Skirrid itself (4 miles) while keen walkers can explore the beautiful surrounding countryside. To the south, the thriving market town of Abergavenny (2 miles) has a wealth of fantastic pubs, shops and restaurants, with the River Usk running past, offering miles of tranquil walks. The area has a wide variety of popular attractions and historic landmarks for you to discover including the Big Pit National Coal Museum, Clydach Gorge, White Castle, Goytre Wharf and Raglan Castle, all within 10 miles.

Lovely location and fab couple. Great facilities and near to Abergavenny which is worth visiting. Hot tub was great, even during the hottest week as we used it in the evening. Air fryer was an added bonus and got a lot of use! Great for stargazing with a telescope and we got great views of Jupiter and Venus.

Tucked away about 10 minutes from Abergavenny this is a lovely place for a relaxing weekend ! Beautifully clean, cosy and homely . Under floor heating and a comfy bed, electric shower, heated towel rail and a smart TV. Separate little hut with all your kitchen requirements. The hot tub in a little covered area with fairy lights is really lovely !

I would highly recommend staying here, we had everything we needed and the hut was amazing, the bed was extremely comfy and the hot tub was all set up ready for our arrival. The owners are brilliant and the breakfast in the cafe is just the best. It was the most friendliest place we have ever been to amd we will definitely be returning
