Overview
Property code: OC-76606

Stumble in from the glorious surrounding countryside, throw off muddy boots and settle down in style at this wonderful converted stable. Dotted with creature comforts including a roaring wood burner, make yourself right at home and lap up the inviting ambience. Perfect for those seeking a romantic rural retreat, this luxurious abode will whisk you off your feet.

 

Step inside where you are greeted by the open-plan heart of the home. Country colours and sleek interiors create a stylish space in which to cook, eat, unwind and keep an eye on your canine friend. Enjoy the ground floor underfloor heating or get the wood burner fired up for that cosy feeling and put your feet up as you wait for the kettle to boil. Enjoy a cup of tea and a snack at the table before drawing up tonight’s menu and creating fabulous flavours in the contemporary tiled kitchen area, all the while admiring views of the rolling landscape and planning your next adventure. Climb the stairs to reach the king-size suite, beautifully decorated with floral pastel tones to help you snooze in peace. Once dreams have finished, take care with the sloping ceiling, rise and shine and head out onto the balcony for a morning coffee and to enjoy the dawn chorus or for a breath of fresh air before freshening up underneath the rainfall shower.

 

Pop on a lead, a pair of walking boots and a jacket and enjoy the many walks from the property or travel to reach the outskirts of the Brecon Beacons National Park and the foodie town of Abergavenny. The sporty guests amongst you can take to the green and play a round of golf whilst others browse the shops and indulge in a bite to eat at one of the Michelin Guide restaurants or dog friendly eateries. Just 6.5 miles from your door, the fabulous Tintern Abbey awaits discovery.

We had an excellent stay at the Old Stables. A superb location with lovely views from the patio area and peace/quiet. We enjoyed walks and ebike rides (some very steep hills up sandstone escarpments) from the door. We only used the car once to visit impressive Chepstow castle (20 mins) on the only chilly grey morning of our stay. We live in a vRead moreery rural area ourselves so narrow roads and distance from shops werent an issue (we had enough provisions to last 5 days). We found the bed, indoor/outdoor seating comfortable. Hide

Beautiful location with lots of walks from the door. The owners were friendly and helpful. Cottage was lovely. Warm and comfortable. Quite isolated but we like that and this is one of the few cottages we would consider visiting again.

Had a lovely few days away at this property. Great for walkers and dogs. Property was comfortable loved the balcony seating area outside. Barney the owners dog made friends with our dog and joined us on walks lovely little chap! Would recommend. Take plenty of food/resources as no shop within walking distance. A very peaceful short break.

A very well-appointed cottage, with great views. Nice and quiet, the dog was very happy, as were we. It was very warm, with under-floor heating and a radiator at the top that did more than keep the chill off. We slept very well. Kitchen is pretty good for a holiday stay. Bed very comfortable.

Great little cottage for two in lovely quiet rural spot. Maybe a bit short on natural daylight downstairs but made up for by good sitting out areas. Very cosy and efficient log burner - only used a couple of evenings in early October as weather was not really cold enough! Plenty of good dog walks around. As others recommend the Lion, also liked theRead more Boat at Pennant particularly for its position. Hide

In previous reviews people mentioned a welcome pint of milk in the fridge so we were a bit disappointed there was none for us, also it states first basket of logs included, there were only 2 logs in the bottom of the basket. Otherwise it was a cosy cottage, clean & comfortable, and well equipped.
