Quintessential and charming, the village of Llangynidr is the ideal destination for those with a love of the outdoors and good food, not to mention a keen interest in local history. Set within the grounds of the owner’s property, this restored stable is within 11 miles of Crickhowell and Abergavenny, two excellent destinations for stocking up on local delights, accessing scenic trails and admiring historic landmarks such as castle ruins and medieval remnants. Comfy yet practical, the property sleeps four guests across two bedrooms and there’s even a welcome pack of goodies to kick-start your stay.
Single-level and cosy, your holiday accommodation features an open-plan living space for relaxing and dining at leisure, whether you are tucking into delicious meals at the table or watching TV from the comfort of the sofas. Mealtimes are a breeze thanks to the country cottage-style kitchen, and there’s a handy outside utility room shared with the owner’s cottage. Escape for some pampering in the shower room with its double-sized shower compartment, and retire to your sleeping quarters for a restful night’s sleep. You’ll have two bedrooms to choose from; one king-size which can be made into a twin on request, and one double with French doors leading outside. Fire up the BBQ on the patio, or wander into the village for supper at one of two local pubs.
Don your walking attire and discover the iconic scenery of the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal, a spectacular waterway interspersed with pretty lochs and resident wildlife. The River Usk is popular for catching salmon and brown trout and keen golfers will be able to play a round of golf at one of three courses within 12 miles. If water sports are more your cup of tea, Llangorse Lake offers sailing, kayaking and paddleboarding 7.5 miles away.
