Cosy Stable at Oak Farm

Beautiful quiet location with stunning gardens and hosts. We were warmly received and made to feel so welcome and nothing was too much bother. Within a 5 minutes drive to Usk . The views and seating area were delightful. The property seemed small at first but it is well planned and it must be very cosy in the winter .

Perhaps a little more cutlery and wine glasses.

Lovely cosy converted stable loved the horse theme and antique furniture. Very comfortable bed and very quiet location, off road parking. Beautiful views. Hosts Alicia and Christopher very welcoming and helpful.

Nothing

Lovely cosy property located in a quiet location. All needed amenities were there in addition to some very lovely complementary bits like bread, milk, butter and jams. Hosts were amazing, going above and beyond for their guests.

Unfortunately due to the heatwave the small cottage got extremely hot and the provided fan could just not cool it down. Could have benefitted from additional or more effective fan. Also we found quite a few creepy crawlies which are somewhat expected but not very welcomed.

An amazing location with an amazing host. The extra touches like freshly baked bread and delicious jam, marmalade, milk, butter, coffee etc etc were incredible. Peaceful, beautiful place and would definitely love to return

Nothing not to like

Friendly hosts, wonderful accommodation and lush surroundings

Very comfortable bed, slept better than at home. Quiet surroundings, felt safe as solo female.

The accommodation price does not include breakfast. But soon after I arrived, a warm-from-the-oven, homemade loaf of bread was brought to me and it was delicious! It went well with the butter and homemade jams already provided. I can't say enough about the care, the generosity and grace shown to me by Alicia and Christopher. I had trouble booking a taxi to the farm, resulting in an early arrival and I'm sure, a disruption in their plans to prepare for other guests. Even so, they made sure I had everything I needed - sharing food from their home and garden until I could shop for groceries. And earlier, when the taxi's credit card machine refused to work, Christopher covered the fare until I could reimburse him. I travel a lot and it is rare to encounter such attention and concern, but as the days went on, I knew it's their default setting! Coincidentally, the last day of my stay fell on my birthday and somehow, amid all the work necessary to maintain the high standards of Oak Farm, I enjoyed special time with them in the garden. As celebration, there was tea and cake and as stories were shared, a bottle of wine was shared as well. It was an unexpected joy of a birthday!

Honestly, nothing could have been better! As an example: one afternoon I was sitting in the garden and it was getting chilly. Alicia noticed and brought me a blanket. Similar gestures were repeated throughout my stay and I will always remember their sensitivity, generous spirit and kindness. Oak Farm is so peaceful and lovely, I rarely left the property during my eight night stay.

First off the owner is lovely and very welcoming, she is very approachable and helpful. You are very close to the other guests and owners but it's a lovely farm and everyone is busy with their day to day lives. They will sit and have a chat or leave you whatever you prefer. She baked us a homemade loaf of bread and left fresh flowers in the room ❤️ The location is great depending on what you're after, we just wanted something quiet and relaxing so it was perfect for us, plenty of walks nearby but you have to get in the car to find a shop or something to do but you are only a few minutes drive from the amenities. The cottage we stayed in is small but perfect for a couple get away it's got everything you need to relax for a night or two. We visited ragland castle and the town of Usk, very close by and worth a visit. Thank you for a lovely stay, we would definitely return.

Nothing.
