About this house rental
Self-contained former granary to 16th century farmhouse in North Monmouthshire. The cart house has a chic, modern feel, with native oak floors and fittings set off against quirky antique furniture and contemporary glass tables. The light, airy atmosphere during the day is transformed into a cosy space for evening relaxing.
The open plan downstairs room has a plush leather sofa bed in the living area, with a large modern dining table and stylish contemporary designer mini-kitchen. Underfloor heating makes this the perfect place to practise your yoga!
The twin French windows open onto a private patio where you can sit out in the sun or watch the stars at night without light pollution, but with the warmth of your own fire pit.
Upstairs, the spacious bedroom has a large double bed with memory foam mattress for a perfect night's sleep, and a designer en-suite bathroom with power shower and twin sinks.
The views are spectacular across the farm and beyond to the iconic Skirrid mountain. We encourage guests to use the farm, walk the fields or picnic in one of the areas set aside for wildlife. If you want to help with the sheep, we'll find you a job!
Our whole ethos is to live as sustainably as possible and the electricity for the Cart House comes from a mix of wind and solar energy, with the heating provided by a super-efficient wood pellet boiler. The farm produces organic, rare breed and wholly pasture-fed sheep with no spray or fertilisers and minimal tractor use across the year. We aim to protect our soils and support a great range of wildlife.
The Cart House is a great place for a relaxed break walking in the Black Mountains, dining in local restaurants (including the nearby Michelin Starred Walnut Tree) and browsing the fascinating independent shops in nearby Abergavenny.
North Monmouthshire is renowned for its cycling on quiet lanes and rolling country roads with little traffic. For the adrenalin junkies, we are half way between Bike Park Wales and the legendary trails of the Forest of Dean and there are lots of green lanes around the far to whet your appetite. We offer locked bike storage, access to a pressure washer and plenty of local knowledge about places to go.
We can arrange additional activities, such as individual yoga lessons, wine tasting at the excellent Whitecastle Vineyard in the village, or occasional courses in furniture making, blacksmithing and cider making!
We want you to have the best time possible during your stay and will do all we can to make it happen. At the same time, we respect your privacy and will not bother you unless you want us to!

The property is lovely and hosts Nick and Sarah are delightful. What costs it a star is when we arrived there was a key in a security box and no one had seen fit to send me the code. After a four hour drive in lousy conditions we couldn’t get in and there was no reply to our calls or messages. I don’t know where responsibility lies but two and a half hours of hanging around in damp and cold wasn’t ok. I’d book again as long as they promise not to change the code!

We had a delightful few days is this beautiful corner of Wales. The accommodation is comfortable and characterful, and the hosts are very friendly. You can cook up simple meals and enjoy eating them with a lovely view of the surrounding hills. Our hosts were busy with lambing - the lambs were very sweet to see, and the resident sheep dog is just lovely!

Beautiful cottage! We had such a lovely stay. Would have loved to have been there for longer to explore the farm/walks/pubs/restaurants a bit more. Nick and Sarah were so welcoming too! Many many thanks

Nick and Sarah are very kind and hospitable hosts. We were impressed by their sheep farm.
Beautiful area for walking. The cottage is a nice and comfortable place to stay. Kitchen is a bit small for tall people but sufficient for simple cooking.
Recommanded as a good base to discover the Black Mountains.
