Guest Reviews

• Matthew (8/5): - The location setting was really great It was cold especially in the bedroom area, tried to put heating on but kept going off like it was set. And the digger works behind doing the trench even though it was 09.30am but still was supposed to be a quiet get away....
• Claudia (10/5): Little piece of heaven on earth - I’d give this an even higher score if it was possible. It’s an absolutely wonderful place to stay. Beautifully set up, quiet, with fantastic views. Probably one of the best places we have ever stayed. Nothing
• Fiona (10/5): Very enjoyable stay in a fantastic property. Would love to stay again. - Lovely location. Very peaceful. Beautiful views. Has everything you need for a great stay. Met the owner , John,who was very welcoming. N/A
• David (9/5): -
• Beth (9/5): -
• Barry (10/5): Everything you could want for a getaway stay. - Absolutely fantastic place with everything you could need for a great stay. Views are amazing and will definitely be booking another stay in the near future. Nothing to dislike.
• Garry (10/5): - Excellent very well equiped, accommodation. In nice quite away from it all location. But very central location for seeing area. Very good comms with host.
• Thomas (10/5): -

• Jacky (10/5): Relaxing - Location lovely
• Laura (10/5): The cottage was incredibly spacious, clean, well equipped, quiet location and fantastic views! Would definitely recommen - Incredibly spacious, clean, well equipped, quiet location with fantastic views!
• Ant Barnett (10/5): Hidden Gem - Location and facilities were 2nd to None . Didn't want for anything bed was super large and comfy and once we got log burner going it stayed goin for our entire 2 day stay . Will 100% be returning to this hidden gem of a cottage 😃. Bit of dust under chairs in living room , maybe a slight oversight but it didn't affect our stay one bit .
• Joanne (9/5): Excellent, we used the opportunity to go off-grid for a couple of days! - The cottage was wonderful. It has beautiful views, is extremely clean and spacious and we were very comfortable there. Our only issue was with the WiFi which was very patchy. Live tv was ok but you are unable to use any of the apps on the tv. This was not a huge problem but just something to be aware of.
• Karola (10/5): - Excellent cottage! So peaceful and comfortable. The bed is huge, so much space! Lovely big kitchen with dining table. Log burner was nice as the heating would take a long time to get the living room space warm so over winter, absolutely necessary.
• Frankie (10/5): Warm, cosy and welcoming - A cosy and well decorated and homely property. We stayed for 2 nights and absolutely everything was thought of. So private and meant we could switch off and enjoy a wonderful weekend away. The property is so spacious and the surrounding area and views are beautiful.
• Tracey (10/5): Just brilliant. - Loved everything about the property. will hopefully be returning. Nothing to like.
• Joanne (9/5): Stunning cottage in a beautiful location - The cottage was stunning and in a beautiful location. Everything was provided for our stay. The cottage is huge with a fabulous kitchen, beautiful lounge with a lovely log burner and a brilliant bedroom and bathroom. The covered veranda is a brilliant idea especially when it rained. We were cold sometimes and weren't sure how to work the heating and the WiFi signal cut out at times
• Clive (10/5): -
• Traveller (10/5): ♡ - Excellent kitchen equipment (perfect for those who love cooking), extremely clean (as it should be everywhere!), the owners were completely invisible, great place <3 I would suggest using a less intense laundry detergent, as some people might find it bothersome. It would also be nice if the kitchen windows could be opened (cooking only with an open window :)).
• Alexandra (10/5): -
• Boris (8/5): War nett - Die Ruhe, sehr viel Platz, Küche Top man muss sich nur mit dem Rauchmelder arrangieren, Piept sofort mit einem Höllischen Geräusch los wenn man nur den Backofen öffnet 😃 Das W LAN ist Grotten schlecht oder gar nicht vorhanden. Normaler Empfang vom Handy das selbe. Also sehr viel Ruhe ….
• Alison (9/5): -
• MURIELLE (9/5): -
• Sarah (9/5): -
• Matt (10/5): - Very clean and well equipped accommodation. Beautiful tranquil location.
• Hannah (10/5): - Lovely cottage, very spacious, comfortable and great views! The host was very accommodating and provided a fan when requested during a heatwave. It was a little awkward pulling the benches out to sit at the kitchen table. Chairs might be better for the space.
• Chantal (9/5): -
• Peter (10/5): We hope to return - Excellent property in peaceful and scenic location, with friendly host.
• Kay Mortimer (10/5): Quiet Modern Country Retreat - The property was very modern, spacious and super clean with an open plan design. Lovely view from full length glass doors looking out to the country side with a wooden deck with table and chairs. The kitchen had everything you needed with lttle extras and a large fridge in an extended part off into a laundry room. Plenty of drawers in the bedroom and wardrobes for hanging clothes. Village close by and a great pub 5min walk away. Megan made us feel very comfortable and even went out of her way to post forward some items I had left behind. The bathroom was dark with no window and the light above the mirror was hard to reach
• Richard (9/5): Superb - Lovely peaceful setting.
• Teresa (10/5): Relaxing break for two in beautiful quiet rural location. - Wonderfully spacious for two people - could happily have spent a couple of weeks there. It was SO clean!! Everything was so well-equipped; they left milk for us in the fridge plus tea and coffee and a full basket of logs just in case we needed the wood burner (we didn’t!). Plugs in all the right places including one for the hairdryer right next to the mirror. Full length mirror with ample closets complete with abundance of coat hangers. Comfortable bed and sitting room furniture and outstanding kitchen. Lovely soaps and shower gel in the bathroom. Great stay. Nothing!
• Jeff (10/5): Exceptional - The property was huge and with a brilliant view. The property had everything you needed for a short or long stay in a gorgeous area. Couldn't fault it Slightly hard to find
• Malcolm (4/5): Disappointing - We liked the location, the quality fixtures and fittings and the spaciousness of the property Our stay would have been 100% better had the hosts been responsive to our basic requests and took on board our feedback. The glaring omission in this property was the lack of an instruction manual and a list of dos and don'ts. The manual just contained restaurants and things to do in the area. Most of our issues could have been sorted easily had there been a proper manual. The owner didn't see the need for one! Our requests were basic - some heating morning and evening and decent wi fi. Only once did the heating come on for an hour in the morning. Other than that it came on at about 1.00am on our last day for several hours causing us to swelter in the bed and lose 2 hours sleep from over heating. There was a log burner for warmth in the evenings. However there were no matches, one firelighter, 3 logs and some kindling. We were there 4 nights. The internet was incredibly slow and the streaming channels buffered. The owner said that's how it is. We found out at the end of our stay that there was a boost which could have rectified this. There was a H n S issue which we did not bring to the attention of the owner and that is the height of the cooker hood over the hob. It is exactly at forehead height so it is easy to injure yourself. Beware! After initially arriving and feeling so happy at the quality of the place things soured very quickly as the various issues we raised early on were not addressed. We left with a feeling of disappointment and that we’ve been blamed for failing to follow the non existent instructions. A sad end to what should have been a lovely holiday break in beautiful Monmouthshire.
• Martin (10/5): Very enjoyable weekend break with excellent facilities and gorgeous views of the countryside - Lovely quiet location , cottage is huge and so well equipped Nothing

• Malcolm (9/5): Superb - Excellent property clean and spacious with panoramic views of the countryside Bedroom is light at night as the blinds don't keep out the light ,only a minor issue the property is fabulous in 3very way
• Jane (10/5): Exceptional -
• Emma (10/5): Lovely stay in a lovely location. Would love to stay again. - It was huge. Very spacious and yet comfortable and cosy too. It was very well equipped and tidy. I would recommend a larger boot mat / caddy by the front door to make coming back after a walk a bit easier.
• Bobby (10/5): Amazing all round would definitely go back and recommend .host have done a amazing get away - How exceptionally clean the property was throughout. The host are so friendly and helpful 🙂 Would highly recommend for family and friends who are looking for a luxury place to stay without breaking the bank ……this is it 👍🏽 Property was perfect
• Caroline (10/5): Hidden gem! - What a wonderful holiday cottage, done out so nicely, a huge space to enjoy with wonderful views over rolling countryside. The Hall Inn does fabulous food and only a couple of minutes drive from the property. Usk close by for river walks, coffee shops and restaurants with Abergavenny 20 minutes away. Loved our stay here.
• Clive (9/5): Lovely location, parking easy. Light and spacious property. Second stay here. Hope to return again - Superb location. Very comfortable. No hot water for showers or washing, boiler problem. Problem being rectified after our stay which was the first opportunity for tradesmen to come out. Unfortunately these things happen. Otherwise all good.
• Sarah (9/5): Superb -
• Derek (10/5): Spacious and quiet - Very spacious and well appointed. Nothing!
• Fay (10/5): Exceptional -
• Jayne (10/5): Amazing stay and great value. - Really spacious with great views from the living room through the bifold doors across the rolling hills. High quality design and layout with quality fittings throughout. Fantastic wood burning stove and large comfortable bed meant we had a cosy and relaxing stay even in cold February. The place was spotlessly clean, well maintained and equipped with a stunning kitchen. Even better than the pictures and reviews, can’t recommend highly enough.
• Heather (10/5): Fantastic place to get away - Great location, amazing facilities and very comfy! Host was responsive and helpful before arrival. We arrived ~2hrs early and were told that the place was all ready for us and that we could go in - which was much appreciated. Not much signal at the property but that wasn't an issue for us. Nice wood burner in main room but could have done with some smaller kindling/matches/firelighters to get it going.
• Simon (9/5): Superb -
• Cathie (9/5): Superb - Beautiful place to stay. Clean, comfortable. It had everything you could need for a relaxing stay. The layout was well thought out. Excellent shower. lovely fuffy towels. Would have liked blinds on the big windows. Just felt the need for a little privacy.
