“Peace and quiet”

This fantastic little cottage is in a lovely rural setting, but it's not that far from several great places like Monmouth and Abergavenny. We wanted somewhere to chill out and that's exactly what we were able to do. We arrived in glorious sunshine and were greeted by the very friendly owners, who'd kindly left us wine, welsh cakes, homemade jam and fresh flowers. ...

We arrived in glorious sunshine and were greeted by the very friendly owners, who'd kindly left us wine, welsh cakes, homemade jam and fresh flowers. We used the Granary as our base for walking along the Monmouthshire & Brecon Canal and climbing up some local mountains - the Sugar Loaf and Skirrid Fawr are highly recommended. Hopefully we will return soon.

I was given dog towel to use as I forgot to take one. It was nice to have them at end of drive. Very enjoyable Holliday .

“We have just returned from a wonderful week at The Granary and we can't praise this place enough!”

On arrival, we were greeted with thoughtful and very generous gifts of fresh eggs, wine, homemade jam and Welsh cakes and there were pretty vases of fresh flowers left in the living room and bedroom. The cottage is beautifully decorated, very clean and extremely comfortable with everything required for a relaxing break. Owners Karen and Graham made us feel incredibly welcome, nothing was too much trouble, their hospitality was second to none and they really made our stay delightful! Also, we were really taken with resident hens, Barbara and the girls who ran over to greet us every time we returned from a day trip, such characters! As for the cottage itself, it is set in the beautiful Monmouthshire countryside with easy access to shops in Abergavenny and Monmouth and only an hour away from stunning secluded beaches and the breathtaking Brecon Beacons, we would heartily recommend the Four Waterfalls Walk at Ystradfellte and the beach at Merthyr Mawr - glorious! We will definitely be making a return visit as soon as we're able! Many thanks for a really memorable holiday!!

“Our family said: Grandpa and Gran are staying at the Granary!”

! We had a very restful and enjoyable time there. A comfortable and friendly place to be. Our hosts, Graham and Karen are delightful and very helpful. When we arrived we received a warm welcome with fresh eggs from the chickens, home made jam, wine etc. All lovely. A great place for exploring. We visited Chepstow, Abergavenny twice, Raglan and Monmouth. So, many thanks to our hosts and their family. We hope to return.

“Amazing.”

My hubby and I have just returned from a long weekend at The Granary. Wow is all I can say. The Granary has been beautifully and tastefully decorated throughout with attention to detail. We were greeted by our host Karen who showed us around and assured us if we needed anything just to ask. She had left milk, bread, tea and coffee, homemade jam and freshly laid eggs, amongst other things. The bed is extremely comfortable, and everything is really cosy and homely. There were fresh flowers in the living room and bedroom. Graham, Karen's husband was also extremely friendly and helpful, offering us coal, wood and utensils for our bbq. They have four very friendly chickens who wander the yard. So in short if you want to stay in an amazing place, with amazing surroundings and views, and amazing hosts we cannot recommend The Granary enough. Thank you so much Karen and Graham. We shall be back.

“Booked a 6 day break at short notice after looking through the cottages available and liking the description of the Granary and, not having been to the area, it’s location.”

We like to explore during the day and have somewhere comfortable to return to in the evening to relax. The property was ideal. Really well and stylishly furnished, lovely comfortable bed. Lovely treats from Karen - wine, milk, fresh eggs,home made jam, welsh pancakes, fresh flowers beautifully arranged. Friendly welcome from the owners and the chickens! We explored the surrounding towns, Monmouth, Abergavenny (try the tapas restaurant), Ross on Wye (lunch on the terrace at the Royal Hotel) and really enjoyed perusing the local shops and eating places. We also explored some of the many castles, there seems to be one round every corner, with the best one being just minutes away in Raglan itself. We returned most evenings via the Beaufort Hotel in the centre of Raglan to enjoy a drink on the patio in the sun with views of the picturesque church. Hadn’t realised how nice this area is and would certainly visit both the area and the property again.

“I would recommend the Granary to stay.”

Our hosts were very helpful and made us welcome. Being in the country there was a lot of wild life. Although the write up of the Granary says there is no T.V. there is an excellent one there.

“My hubby and I have just spent a long weekend in The Granary.”

The cottage is beautiful, tastefully decorated and stunning views. Our hosts Karen and Graham were amazing. They couldn't have been any more attentive. Leaving us, bread, milk, tea, coffee, homemade strawberry jam and more. Fresh flowers in the living room and bedroom. Graham helped us out with coals and wood for the bbq and tools too. If you would like a weekend away in a beautiful cottage with fantastic views, amazing hosts and and the beat host's then go to The Granary. Thank you so much Karen and Graham. We will be back.
