Overview
Property code: OC-BN324

Located in the shadow of the majestic Sugar Loaf mountain, six guests and two canine chums can enjoy both outdoor pursuits and the bustling streets of the foodie hub of Abergavenny, 1 mile away. Stretch your legs on one of the many walks from your doorstep. Summit the mighty Sugar Loaf mountain for spectacular views over the surrounding landscape, before returning to snuggle up by the wood burner.

With exposed beams, wood-panelled walls and a quarry-tile stone floor and lintel, this farmhouse is a beautiful time-trap, transporting you back to its 15th-century roots while modern comforts keep you comfortable in the present. Textiles and low ceilings create a cosy ambience, while the wood burner and Aga are perfect for warming chilly toes and paws. Two sitting rooms mean adults and kids can enjoy their own space, before reuniting around the dining table for a home-cooked meal. Retire to the eaved bedrooms for a peaceful nights sleep, rising to take your morning coffee in the garden. Soak up the sights and relax as the kids and pups play on the lawn. Sizzle up a BBQ and dine alfresco with incredible views as a memorable backdrop.

Nestled between hills close to the Welsh/English border, the market town of Abergavenny (1.5 miles) has many shops, pubs and restaurants as well as a leisure centre. Spend an afternoon exploring independent boutiques; sampling delicious local food and purchasing hand-crafted goods and wares. Adrenaline junkies can try a range of outdoor activities with Black Mountain Activities (19 miles) or find water sports at Llandegfedd Visitor & Watersports Centre (14 miles). Enjoy wine tasting at the Sugar Loaf Vineyards (1 mile), or golfers can play a round at Monmouthshire Golf Club (3 miles).

We had an absolutely fantastic holiday at the farmhouse. The house itself was beautiful and really well equipped. Heather and Tom were super helpful and on-hand if we needed anything. The garden was perfect for our dog and also watching the baby lambs in the field next door! Everything was faultless and we would love to come back.

This historic and characterful farmhouse was great fun to stay in. We enjoyed the rural lifestyle including the farmhouse kitchen complete with Aga and sitting room with a large woodburner. The excellent location offers walks from the doorstep alongside convenient proximity to Abergavenny. Hot water, logs, and welcome were constantly on offer.

Thank you for a lovely stay in your historic property. The cottage was very warm and welcoming on arrival and the additional personal touches very thoughtful. The house is very old and full of character and is ideally situated near enough to town to access amenities but tucked away in the mountain enough to make venturing out for wild walks, directRead more from your door easy. Our family of 5 enjoyed our stay and would love to return again. Hide

This is a very pretty old-world cottage. It is a warm, cosy, homely place that is full of character. The Aga made the downstairs very warm, and when it was a bit fresh, the central heating made the rest of the house very comfortable. The beds were very comfortable, with lovely fresh bed-linen. The environment is peaceful, with great walks nearby. HRead moreeather was very welcoming, and full of local knowledge. Hide

Superb setting with no disturbance. The house is so inviting and cosy, even my daughter was won over and has completely changed her view on her desired decorations. Loved the pet sheep in the paddock, really handy when one granddaughter identifies as a sheep dog and the views are stunning. Used as a base there is so much natural beauty in the area Read morewe will have to book a longer stay next time to fit more in. Lovely hosts who called to see if everything was ok, and good communication.Thank you. Hide

It took me back to staying at my Grandparents house when I was a child. Very atmospheric. Very warm and homely. The view from the cottage was heavenly. The lambs in the back were so sweet and enthusiastic to greet us. The area was great for walking. Abergavenny is a great town, spoilt for places to eat, drink and relax.
