The best hotels Monmouthshire (Sir Fynwy)

The family, which owns 80 dairy cows, offers friendly rooms on its farm. You can reach a delicious itinerary on foot along a river that does not pass very far... The setting is ideal for resting and living in an authentic rural setting. The rooms are nicely decorated in a charming English style. All rooms are equipped and have their own bathroom. Although there is no restaurant on site, there are several nearby, including the very good The Hardwich.

This former coaching inn with its beautiful Georgian facade offers around 30 warm, bright and comfortable rooms. The rooms are elegantly decorated with taste and a very cosy atmosphere. You can also rent a cottage for added peace and quiet if you want to extend your stay by a few nights. Friendly, attentive staff. On-site, Angel Bakery, a bakery since 2016 offering fresh bread and pastries for breakfast. Regular promotions and offers on their website.

If you wish to extend your retirement, a hotel has opened its doors in a 12th century building that is part of the monastery. The restaurant's dining room is located in the room that was once used as a monks' visiting room. The four rooms are often occupied by cyclists and walkers. The popular Offa's Dyke does not pass very far from the monastery and walks in the Llanthony Valley are renowned as one of the most spectacular in the Black Mountains. Small establishment, it is better to book in advance.

Pleasant country house, between the Wye Valley and the Black Mountains. The rooms are bright and friendly, decorated in beautiful beige tones. Scruffy are delicious. You can find the eggs of the farm hens, among other things, on the table.
