The Barn in Crickhowell is a spacious and welcoming cottage, praised for its cleanliness, peaceful location, and friendly hosts. Guests enjoyed the ample parking, lovely views, and suitability for dogs. Some noted the need for updates and better signage for finding the property.
Most guests found The Barn to be very clean, with only a few mentioning areas that could benefit from more attention. The positive remarks on cleanliness far outweigh the negatives.
The location is highly regarded for its tranquility, beautiful scenery, and proximity to local attractions. The difficulty in finding the property and the entrance has been noted, but the overall sentiment is very positive.
Comfort received mixed reviews. While many guests found the property spacious and the beds clean, there were several comments about the need for better mattresses and updates to the furniture.
Facilities are generally well-received, with the property being well-equipped for a family holiday. However, some guests mentioned that certain aspects, such as the garden and outdoor seating, could be improved.

This characterful cottage is located near the town of Abergavenny, with views across to the Blorenge Mountain and a direct footpath from the rear, bringing you up onto Sugar Loaf. Situated on the owner’s grounds with a neighbouring working farm and an enclosed garden, The Barn is a wonderful place to stay whatever the time of year. Upon entering, you will discover the open-plan living area; one side houses a lounge with a leather sofa and a collection of arm chairs, sitting adjacent to an electric fire. To the other side of the room, a dining table is set up for four people, somewhere comfortable for the family to gather after an adventure filled afternoon. With the addition of Sky TV, and a Nintendo Wii, you will be kept occupied for hours. Upstairs in the cottage, there are two bedrooms; a charming twin room, and a double bed, which looks out over rural views, a natural backdrop to wake up to. Start your mornings by getting ready in the lovely bathroom, then wander down to the kitchen, for those delicious refreshments or a warm cup of tea. Large windows accompany the ground floor, so you can be at one with the location, wherever you choose to go about your day - even better, a large 'barn door' gives access to the rear garden which benefits from a patio and seating area. A prime local area for walking and close to a pub. Nestling between the seven mountains, with the River Usk flowing through the centre, Abergavenny boasts a castle with its own museum, churches, an indoor market hall, good shops and a multitude of pubs and restaurants to suit all tastes, as well as hosting the annual food festival, as well as taking a visit to the book town of Hay on Wye. Beautiful walks through the Wye Valley and Vale of Usk, or along the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal are close by, with Crickhowell, not forgetting the breath-taking Bannau Brycheiniog National Park (Brecon Beacons) and Black Mountains. A getaway not to be missed.
