The Experience

The Black Mountains are the backdrop to your Herefordshire retreat: this converted bakehouse has all a couple need to escape city life. Inside, tones are neutral, with wheat coloured carpets and soft fabrics in the living room to set off the dark beams above, and a wood-burner stacked with logs. The kitchen isn’t huge but it is well-equipped (and you’ll find some generous basics along with handmade chocolates and local Welsh cakes), so pad through to the conservatory with a coffee, or step out to the sunny garden – both are great birdwatching spots. Two meadows lie just beyond, the start of many footpaths that criss-cross the countryside; the river Monnow meanders by too. The energetic Jones’ use the old mill owner’s house at weekends but otherwise the cottage stands in peaceful seclusion. After a day spent in bookish Hay-on-Wye, a windswept trek on Offa’s Dyke or a drink in the local pub you can head upstairs and collapse into your big zip-link double, with its fresh linen and pretty view to the garden. The award-winning village shop can sell you a fishing licence and there’s plenty of space for storing bikes.

Reviews

Duncan, Edinburgh

We spent a great week at Monnow River Cottage. It is a lovely well equipped and comfortable cottage in a nice setting next to the old mill with plenty of walks and cycles on the doorstep. Haye and Abergavenny close by for other attractions. Hosts Tivy and Steve were very friendly and helpful and nothing seemed too much bother. Strongly recommended.

Hidden gem in a beautiful peaceful setting. We really appreciated the personal touches and hospitality. The best cottage we have rented. Good walks, local wildlife to enjoy from the garden room. Abergevenny Market good, Hay on Wye, Hereford and Symonds Yat worth visiting. Hopes in Longtown great for local produce.

We love everything about this cottage and location; it's set in an idyllic rural location in private grounds and surrounded by beautiful countryside and abundant wildlife. The hosts were very helpful, provided us with a hamper on arrival and ensured to make our stay as enjoyable as possible.
