Property code: 86820
An original DAF army truck that has been cleverly restored, creating a comfortable and well-equipped base suitable for all that come to stay. Set in the Wye Valley, you can make the most of the great outdoors.
Enjoy a holiday to remember in this converted army truck in the heart of the Welsh countryside. Sleeping two adults and two children, the property makes a great base for a small family or a couple. The area is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts, who gravitate to the breathtaking waterways of the Usk and Wye for walking, swimming, canoeing, and fishing. The bustling market town of Usk is 4 miles away and there are some excellent nearby attractions, including Tintern Abbey and Chepstow Castle. After an action-packed day, return to the truck to unwind in the hot tub and soak up the peaceful surroundings.
Wooden steps lead to the quirky accommodation. Once inside, discover a cleverly designed holiday home, with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The open-plan interior of the former army truck is decorated in atmospheric, dark tones, with quirky camo print bed linen. After a long walk, return to your cosy hideaway to snuggle on one of the sofas and watch TV, or rustle up a tasty supper in the kitchenette. The accommodation sleeps two adults and two children, with a sofa that converts to a king-size bed and two built-in bunk beds. Pour yourself a morning coffee and take in the views from the driver’s seat of the truck and, in the evening, rest your weary limbs in your private hot tub.
The picture-postcard town of Usk is the ideal destination on a lazy, summer’s afternoon. Wander amongst the intriguing old buildings and along the river, before popping into one of the traditional Welsh tearooms for a delicious slice of homemade bara brith. The town is also renowned for its magnificent floral displays. The evocative gardens at Dewstow (11 miles), with their labyrinth of underground grottoes and tunnels, are also well worth a visit.
