“A lovely week in a quiet village.”

A great base to explore Monmouthshire and the surrounds.
Mrs Curr September 2019

“We had a most enjoyable week at The Pound.”

It's a cosy cottage with everything you need and a warm welcome from Jean including some lovely Welsh cakes, eggs, butter and milk which was a lovely touch. There's a great pub in the village within walking distance which serves delicious food. There is an abundance of places to visit and beautiful walks along the river. The scenery is stunning. Thank you Jean for a great holiday.
Mrs Sewell August 2019

“It was a bit too quiet in the area for us, however, we enjoyed the break.”
Ms Howarth May 2019

“The Pound is a lovely, cosy cottage, with good amenities and with access to a beautiful garden.”

The village of Trelleck is full of history and archaeology in beautiful countryside with wonderful walks. Jean is an excellent host and one of the kindest people I have ever met.
Mr Sullivan April 2019

“Beautiful cottage and Jean the owner couldn’t have been more helpful.”

Trellech itself is also a great base; a lot of history for what is now a small village, a great little pub and perfectly positioned to explore the Wye valley and surrounding areas.
Ms Howarth March 2019

“Jean is a very welcoming and kind person who made me feel at home and was always on hand if I needed anything.”

Trelleck is a lovely village rich in history and archaeology. The Pound itself is a cosy cottage which also has a long history. Trelleck is a gateway to some beautiful towns and there are castles galore. Highly recommended.
Mr Schofield November 2018

“Very warm and cosy cottage, Jean the owner had left bread,butter,milk,and the best eggs we've had in a long time, altogether a very pleasant place to stay.”
Mrs Wright November 2018

“We have just returned from a weeks stay at The Pound.”

A delightful cottage very cosy and warm and is much bigger inside than appears in the picture. The cottage is very well equipped and very well situated for Monmouth, Chepstow and surrounding areas such as The Forest Of Dean and Tintern Abbey. Jean is a lovely lady on hand if needed and we were very comfortable in the cottage. The local pub The Lion is at the top of the village a short walk from the cottage, the food is delicious and freshly cooked to order. The little local shop is just around the corner from the pub and sells lovely fresh bacon, sausages and a selection of provisions and newspapers . We liked the village very much very friendly and has a lovely church. We would stay here again
Mrs White September 2018

“The Pound must be one of the most well equipped cottages we have ever stayed in and the cleanest.”

Lovely thoughtful welcome pack. We were surprised just how spacious it was inside, a real tardis. Ideally situated between Chepstow and Monmouth. On the edge of the Forest of Dean which had great walking for our two Westies, Archie and Mollie. Great dog friendly pub just up the village with a roaring log fire, good food and chatty locals. Exceeded our expectations and we would definitely go there again.
Ms Lane September 2018

“Lovely area, Trellech is a good starting spot for seeing the area from.”

The Pound, fascinating history and plenty big enough. Jean was very welcoming, we look forward to coming back.
Nelson August 2018

“Jean and John were lovely hosts.”

They were helpful and very accommodating to our needs. The Pound is a fantastic place to stay when visiting the Trellech area. We so enjoyed our visit.
Mr Bumstead July 2018

“Firstly you are met with a warm smile from both John & Jean, you go on to find that they have provided you with a few essentials, bread, butter ,milk, tea and coffee.”

You then start to explore the cottage and find that you have book a clean, comfortable and well maintained property that suits all your needs, so you can immediately start to relax and enjoy your break. A trip to the local pub, and you are made to feel welcomed by all on both sides of the bar! So, what are the down sides, simply there are none! We travelled all around South Wales, and I cannot think of a better lace to do it from. We had a fantastic break, and we hope that you will too staying at The Pound
Mrs Phillips June 2018

“The owners John and Jean are really lovely people and you couldn't ask for nicer host.”

The cottage had everything you need and it was my brother-in-laws 60th while away and John and Jean bought us a drink in the pub to help celebrate his birthday. It is a lovely cottage. Beds were lovely and clean and comfortable and the kitchen had everything you could want. Locals were very friendly and the village has a shop and a beautiful church and only a short drive from tourist attractions. There are also walks from your door if you like to take a stroll in the fields.
Mr Armstrong June 2018

“Our break at The Pound was excellent.”

Thank you to John & Jean for your friendly welcome and the food/drink starter pack provided. The Pound is a lovely cottage with good facilities in a wonderful village, which contains a welcoming pub (The Lion) that serves real ales, good food and welcomes dogs. Trellech is about 4 miles from Monmouth and perfect for exploring the Wye valley and nearby Forest of Dean. We will return.
Mrs Kempthorne June 2018

“We shared the accommodation with many, many spiders so anyone with a fear of them wouldn't be able to stay there, The owners were very pleasant and helpful and everything we needed was provided.”

About the location

TRELLECH

Monmouth 6 miles; Chepstow 10.6 miles; Ross-on-Wye 16 miles.

The beautiful village of Trellech is located in the picturesque Wye Valley, close to Ross-on-Wye, Monmouth, Llandogo and Tintern with its famous Abbey ruins. The village derives its name from the three standing stones, known as 'Harold's Stones', and was once one of the largest towns in Wales, hence its wonderful church. The history of the village draws many to visit the three stones as well as the Virtuous Well and the Tump Turret, a 40 foot mound which dates back to Norman times and is known to be the remains of a motte and bailey castle. Outstanding walks are enjoyed by all, whether to explore the history of the area or just take in the magnificent countryside. Pop into the village pub or enjoy a picnic along the way. The surrounding area gives you the option to explore more history at Tintern Abbey and Raglan Castle, visit beautiful Ross-on-Wye or enjoy cycle rides in this most scenic part of Wales. The South Wales coast is only 50 minutes’ away and there are easy road links to Bristol and Cardiff and all of their attractions. A perfectly peaceful location for wonderful holidays.
