Romance and relaxation are on the cards at this delightful shepherd’s hut located at the base of The Skirrid. Close to walking routes and cycling trails, the Wye Valley and vibrant market towns, you will have plenty to keep you occupied on your Welsh break. This quaint shepherd’s hut is deceptively spacious and beautifully finished. It benefits from under floor heating throughout so you can keep warm whatever the weather. Step inside to the open-plan space and find a delightful wood burner set in front of two armchairs, a well-equipped kitchenette with breakfast bar and a built-in double bed with Smart TV at the foot. To one end of the hut is a shower room with WC. Outside the hut is an enclosed garden with comfortable seating, hammock, fire pit and a BBQ. Start the day in your private sauna and multi-jet shower and when you return after a busy day exploring, soak up the views and the starry night sky from the private hot tub. Just 1 mile away is a restaurant and pub, while The Skirrid is accessible via rugged farmland and walking trails from the doorstep. Climb to the summit and admire the superb views across the Brecon Beacons and Black Mountains. If you fancy another challenging hike, head 5.5 miles to Sugar Loaf Mountain. Keen cyclists will find trails and tracks of all varieties, from off-road mountain biking to peaceful lanes. Abergavenny (3 miles), known as the ‘Gateway to Wales’ has lots of pubs, restaurants and shops for you to peruse, or enjoy a trip to the museum or castle.

Absolutely loved staying here. The hut itself is spacious inside with underfloor heating and a log burner, as well as a shower. With views of the Skirrid on one side and green land on the other, plus a private outdoor area this is the perfect little weekend getaway. The car park for the base of the Skirrid is just a 30 second walk, and Abergavenny Read moreis a short drive away. If you want to stay local, the cafe that is on site has a really nice selection of food and the coffee is great! Hide

Absolutely stunning shepards hut! The little garden area with the sauna and hot tub was incredible! Felt nice and private and sucluded, whilst still having amazing views of the fields next to the hut. The owners go above and beyond to make your stay so comfortable. The hut was nice and warm even in December and the small fireplace inside adds a nicRead moree cosy touch. Hide

The hut had everything in it that you will need. The hot tub & sauna were great. The outdoor shower was an added bonus, with only the sheep looking on. Its very private. Its very warm and very comfortable. The cover over the hot tub was needed because of the rain but it meant we didn't miss out.

Amazing holiday. The hut is lovely and relaxing and ALL the outdoor space made it even better. The hot tub perfect after a lovely day walking. The cafe breakfast is the best start to the day. Mike and Tracey and the rest of the staff so friendly. Will come back again.

Perfect stay to relax and take in the calm of life. A walk up the Skirrid if you fancy a moderate challenge up the hill or stay in the hot tub and chat the time away. The Copper Top Cafe was a gorgeous start to the day. The hosts Tracey and Mike was so welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. 100% would stay again.

We've just had the best few days away we've had in an age! Staying in FinMia was perfect for our mini-moon - it had everything you need. There's so many walks you can do in the beautiful surrounding countryside, it's perfectly situated. Next door, Copper Kettle Caf did an awesome breakfast for us too. We were made to feel very welcome by the ownersRead more Mike & Tracy and we can't wait to go back! Hide
