Monnow River Cottage

We absolutely love staying here! The cottage is beautifully presented and very comfortable, with a lovely garden and in such a peaceful setting. Tivy and Steve are always welcoming. It is the perfect place to relax. There are lots of great walks nearby – some right from the doorstep, others within a short drive to the Brecon Beacons. We also love viewing the night sky from the garden and seeing the Milky Way and a host of other stars you wouldn't see in a town or city.

We had a wonderful stay in Longtown. Tivy and Steve were fantastic hosts and made sure that we had everything we needed. The cottage lived up to our expectations and more. Situated in a beautiful location, it was a perfect place to unwind. The cottage was spotless, well equipped & beautifully furnished, with fresh flowers in every room. The hamper that greeted us on our arrival was a lovely touch. We would have no hesitation in recommending Monnow River Cottage to our family & friends. Note - There is a wonderful, well stocked farmshop just 5 minutes walk from the cottage.

We had a wonderful week at Monnow River Cottage. Tivy and Steve have a very special home and are warm and welcoming. The cottage has everything you need, is warm and cosy and the gardens are immaculately maintained. Extra touches such as stunning fresh flower displays and the thoughtful basket of provisions on our arrival were much appreciated. The area is full of lovely walks, either gentle riverside or more challenging Black Mountain hikes. We can't wait to come back.

We loved staying in this beautiful, cosy cottage. With so many enticing places to explore just within the grounds - you don't need to go anywhere else! However, we really enjoyed walking over the mountain to Llanthony Priory - it stretched our Norfolk legs somewhat but the spectacular views were well worth the effort. The wonderful Cornewall Arms in Clodock is a must for a pint and some traditional pub games; we also had a delicious meal at The Crown, Pantygelli. We could not have wished for more welcoming and generous hosts than Steve and Tivy and cannot wait to visit again.

What a wonderful place to stay! The cottage is absolutely perfect! Everything you need is there, along with so many additional extras, beautiful fresh flowers, toiletries, soft linen. The grounds around the cottage are beautiful with numerous sitting areas, including a very comfortable hammock for relaxing on sunny afternoons! Tivy and Steve are fantastic hosts, so kind and helpful and great fun! Already looking forward to our next visit!
