Really pleased with the accommodation, plenty of space inside and out for the 9 of us. The house was clean and tidy. The kitchen had everything we could need and more, which was extremely helpful. The house is a short walk away from Skenfrith castle and the river for a swim, and within about a 20-25 minute drive you can get to many places/attractions. The owner was helpful when I messaged to ask a question and replied promptly. Will definitely be recommending ti family and friends.

This is a beautiful old farmhouse. The exterior pictures on the listing don’t do it justice really. The bedrooms are lovely: all very large with crisp white bedding. The birdsong is like a symphony. We had a fire every night in the fireplace in the big lounge. It has 3 sofas so was really comfy and roomy. Kitchen is well equipped with a long table to eat in and then another absolutely enormous dining table in the dining room next to the kitchen. We loved the outdoor space which has a hammock chair and a 3 seater outdoor sofa and looks onto a lawn surrounded by trees. It could probably do with a couple more outdoor chairs as otherwise there is only a picnic bench which isn’t that close to the other chairs so we couldn’t all sit out together but it’s a small gripe. You can walk to Skenfrith Castle just a few minutes down the road and there is a path within the Castle grounds which leads down to a river where you can swim. Beautiful location with lots of walks, although very hilly (some hills of 45 degrees for quite a distance) so not the best for the older family members.
