I highly recommend The Old Henhouse. Lovely comfortable en suite accommodation with an enclosed garden that is safe for dogs. The house was lovely and warm inside on arrival. The beds are super comfortable and there is everything you need to enjoy your stay including a decent size smart TV. The Old Henhouse is very close to the town of Abergavenny Read moreand Grosmont is only a short drive away. My husband and I would love to stay at The Old Henhouse again in the future. Hide

The Henhouse Hideaway is quite a find and is totally worth the short drive up the narrow lane - the views are unbelievable. The Henhouse is spacious, super clean and has everything you will need for either a few days or longer. The outside garden is thoughtfully dog proof and a great place to enjoy the evening sun after a full day of adventures in Read morethe area of which there are endless options. The Sugarloaf Vineyard cafe is a must visit as is the walk up the Skirrid from the doorstep. Enjoy! Hide

The approach to this property is up a narrow lane with passing places. The accommodation is a stylish conversion and well equipped. The views are lovely; a very peaceful spot. There is an internal corridor to link both parts of the barn, we did not have neighbours when we were there so cannot comment on how this works.
