Enjoying an enviable location at the foot of the Skirrid, this beautifully hand crafted shepherds hut has a private hot tub and fire pit, just perfect for those looking for a little adventure.

Nestled at the foot of the Skirrid, on the eastern edge of the Brecon Beacons National Park and the Wye Valley. It is the perfect place to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life and relax in the great Welsh outdoors. The area is also steeped in history with some of Europe’s finest surviving castles, Abergavenny Castle set against the spectacular hills and Crickhowell Castle, a prominent feature within a small market town, or if you want more of an adventure try canoeing or kayaking on the River Wye. The area is also host to a vibrant events calendar to include Usk show and Abergavenny food festival.

Head inside the shepherds hut and you will find the lounge/diner and sleeping area with an inviting wood burner to snuggle up in front of after a day exploring the area. The lounge area has seating where you can relax and listen to music on the DAB radio or watch a film on the smart TV. There is a handy kettle and toaster in the  main hut whilst the separate kitchen with gas stove, microwave and fridge, is to the side in its own hut. In the evening snuggle up in the comfy double bed and look out at the stars. You will also find a shower room with shower and WC.  The property benefits from the luxury of under floor heating to keep you toasty during the chillier months.

After a day exploring why not enjoy a soak in your own private hot tub, there is also an area set with table and chairs for summer dining and a gas BBQ. There is allocated parking for one car. There is also a lovely tea room on site which is run by the property owners.

A lovely stay and warm welcome from Mike. Pictures dont do the place justice, with a really nice stargazing type terrace above the hot tub. Great facilities and lots of walks nearby, made for a relaxing stay.

An excellent place to stay, you are given total seclusion whilst known your host's are on hand at all times should you need any assistance. They could not have been more inviting or friendly. Everything from the quality of workmanship of the buildings & facilities to the cleanliness is absolutely first rate. I defy anyone not to feel relaxed in theRead morese surroundings, with fantastic views everywhere. I highly recommend this accommodation to anyone. Hide

What a wonderful find. Better than the pictures on site. Hot tub is actually undercover and more private than photos suggest. Lovely relaxing break, just what we needed. Owners are wonderful! We will return!

A really beautiful place. The owners are amazing, super nice and helpful. Everything was clean and cozy and we were made to feel really welcome. Would definitely reccommend a walk up Skirrid View, it's a bit of a hard trek but the views are well worth it.
