Set on a working farm between Monmouth and Abergavenny, this home promises a peaceful escape surrounded by nature. If you don’t feel like going too far, you’ll find a natural swimming pond and 100 acres of land to roam here, along with the Offa's Dyke Path. If that’s not enough, hikers can also enjoy the trails of the Black Mountains, in the southeast corner of the Brecon Beacons National Park. Of course, you may prefer to kick back and relax during your stay – if so, the wood-fired hot tub, rolltop bath, and wood burner are ready to take your vacation relaxation to the next level.

Children and dogs may need to be supervised near the natural swimming pond.
As this home is old, set across many levels and with steps into each bedroom, it may not suit those with limited mobility.
The ceiling in some areas is on the low side. It might not be suitable for taller guests.
