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

The property is absolutely fine, would be great in the summer, the problem is the location, no local pub to go to and the nearest town is a drive away, personally we like to leave the car from the minute we arrive, that is our personal preference and should not detract from a lovely site. one more point would be if there was a cooker there, there iRead mores only a hob and a microwave.
