Holiday cottage in Kemeys Commander, Monmouthshire

Accommodation details

This fabulous property, situated in a peaceful, rural location just 3.5 miles from Usk, is perfect for a relaxing, outdoor holiday. Sleeping four across two bedrooms, the spacious, open-plan lodge suits two couples or small families who are looking for a holiday where there are walks available from the doorstep.

Join the National Trust's Usk Valley Walk just 400 metres from your front door before returning home to enjoy a home-cooked meal on the patio that looks out across the fields. The lodge, which is part of a complex of similar properties, has a warm and cosy atmosphere that welcomes you in via a bright and airy entrance hall.

The open-plan living area features neutral decor to help you unwind after a long day of exploration, with soft furnishings in the lounge area beckoning you to snuggle up on the sofa with a good book or with the Smart TV playing your favourite show. Grab a quick breakfast at the breakfast bar in the sleek kitchen or cook up a storm and dine at the contemporary dining table and make plans for tomorrow.

Both bedrooms have a sumptuous feel; grey and white tones promote a tranquil slumber for all. The super-king-size room can be made into twin beds on request and has access to a gorgeous en-suite shower room, while the spacious king-size bedroom has use of the well-appointed main shower room. Outside, enjoy al fresco dinners together on the spacious patio area to the side of the property, and take a moment to wander around the site's peaceful gardens.

Serious walkers can access the edge of Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) National Park within 9 miles; spend the day climbing Sugar Loaf or Skirrid Fawr (10.5 miles). If you like your history, Usk Castle (3.5 miles) and White Castle (9.5 miles) are well worth a visit.
