  • Enjoy the outdoors, both the Wye Valley and Brecon Beacons are on your doorstep
  • An area steeped in history with medieval castles and vibrant market towns to explore
Property code: 82392

Tucked away in an idyllic rural setting in the Usk Valley in Southeast Wales, this delightful single-storey property is perfect for couples or families. Located between the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the Brecon Beacons National Park, lots of adrenaline-filled outdoor adventures await you, whether you’re on foot, bike or canoe. Although it occupies a rural location, the village of Bettws Newydd with its pub and farm shop is 1.5 miles over the hill. Immaculately presented in cool, neutral tones with top-quality fixtures and fittings, this contemporary property is light, airy and stylish throughout. On arrival, leave your muddy boots outside under the traditional oak porch before heading inside to the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. Here, you can luxuriate in each other’s company, whether you’re cooking up a storm in the kitchen, dining at the table or sinking into the comfortable sofas. There are two gorgeous bedrooms to retire to at the end of the day, whilst two shower rooms complete the accommodation, one of which is en suite. Outside, there is a terrace to the rear and a patio to the front, both of which offer a peaceful place to enjoy a morning coffee or evening drink. Walkers will be spoilt for choice with many walks straight from the doorstep, such as the Usk Valley Walk. For something a little more challenging, you could head to the top of Sugar Loaf Mountain (10.5 miles) where you can appreciate the far-reaching views of the area’s beautiful landscape. Parc Bryn Bach (19.5 miles) offers something a little less strenuous with its nature reserve and activity centre, whereas water sports enthusiasts will be more likely to enjoy Goytre Wharf (3.5 miles). If history’s your thing, you could visit the Big Pit National Coal Museum or the photogenic Tintern Abbey (both within 20 miles).

Such a beautiful place! The property is spotless and spacious and very well decorated. The setting was so peaceful and we enjoyed exploring the grounds which are pretty extensive!

This was an immaculately clean and exceptionally well equipped cottage. It was a somewhat random late booking but the week turned out really well. We found National Cycle Network routes to follow close by and particularly enjoyed the canal. The shed to store bikes was a real bonus.

Possibly the best holiday cottage we have ever stayed at. It was well equipped, clean, comfortable and the welcome pack could have provided a full meal if necessary.
