Cottage to rent with a log fire / woodburner in Abergavenny (8mls NE)

Accommodation details

Set beside a quiet country lane and wrapped in rolling countryside, this stunning barn conversion offers the ultimate rural retreat. Nestled between the Brecon Beacons and the Wye Valley, and just 10 miles north of the foodie town of Abergavenny, it offers the perfect combination of tranquillity and adventure.

With ample accommodation for six guests and two well-behaved pups, this spacious and stylish abode is perfect for nature-loving families and groups of friends. Located next to the owner's home yet enjoying its own privacy, this stone barn has been lovingly renovated to offer a cosy and welcoming holiday home.

Natural woods, neutral tones and high-quality fixtures and fittings combine to create the perfect home from home. Enjoy sociable evenings or quiet TV nights in the elegant lounge, where exposed stone walls, travertine flooring and a wood burner set in an Inglenook fireplace offer the perfect ambience.

The country-style kitchen is beautifully equipped for your culinary adventures, then settle around the lovely oak table to wine, dine and chat in comfort. Make the most of warm weather by firing up the BBQ and dining alfresco on the patio, while the kids and dogs play on the lawn or explore the owner's orchard.

Three bedrooms – a king-size, a double and a twin – are havens of relaxation on the first floor with wooden floors, cosy bedding and superb rural views. A family bathroom on the first floor, and shower room and utility room on the ground floor take care of all practicalities. Visit the hilltop village of Grosment (1 mile) to see why Welsh travel writer, Jan Morris, described it as ‘the most beautiful village in Britain', or venture south to the foodie paradise of Abergavenny (10 miles).

Book lovers shouldn't miss the literary mecca of Hay-on-Wye (23 miles), while the Brecon Beacons and the Wye Valley are bursting with outdoor adventures and beautiful castles to explore.
