About this property

Mardy 2.3 miles. Resting in a rural position in Wales, in the idyllic village of Llantilio Pertholey near to the amenities of a shop and pub in Mardy, Pentre Barn is a remarkable choice for an escape to the countryside. Offering views over the Skirrid Mountain, Sugar Loaf and plenty more scenic wonders within the Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons), this holiday cottage makes a beautiful base for families and friends seeking a countryside adventure. Enter into the sitting room and step onto the solid oak flooring as you take in the traditional character of the property with its original features running throughout. Boasting wooden beams, an impressive woodburning stove sitting within the inglenook and a quaint array of furniture, it makes a glorious spot to spend your evenings. Move through into the equally elegant kitchen/diner, with more exposed beams and slate flooring, this regal setting is perfect for enjoying all your homemade meals, the large electric range cooker sure to help you whip up a feast in no time, with plenty of preparation space on the wooden worktops too. Take the splendid solid oak staircase up to the first floor to be met by the three beautifully-presented bedrooms benefiting from being served by the family bathroom. Each room on the first floor retains wooden beams, sloping ceilings and fantastic skylights which let in an abundance of natural light, creating the perfect setting to unwind each evening. The bedrooms consist of a superb master double bedroom, boasting its own en-suite shower room which even has underfloor heating, as well as a decked balcony with furniture letting you soak in the countryside views, this room is a true wonder to be had. The further two bedrooms consist of a king-size and a double bed with a sofa bed for added room, offering a lovely sleeping arrangement for the whole group. Spend your mornings out in the enclosed rear garden where you can also find a barbecue for those alfresco evenings, while the lawned garden to the side makes a lovely spot to play a game of badminton with your loved ones. The front patio area is shared by the owner and can be used in moderation, making a lovely spot to sit before venturing across the public footpath resting in the owner's field, to discover the beauty of the surrounding area. The local village of Llantilio Pertholey is a fantastic choice for those seeking a remote base, with nearby Mardy offering all the amenities you could need for a self-catered stay with the addition of a traditional fish and chip shop, while a wider selection can be found within the market town of Abergavenny, known as 'The Gateway to Wales', here you can find the historical wonder of its museum set within a former hunting lodge in the grounds of a ruined Norman fortress, as well as charming regular markets where you can pick up local produce for a special meal at the cottage, and be sure to attend the annual Abergavenny Food Festival for even more sumptuous treats! There are plenty of walking and cycling routes available within the local area, with a riding school nearby too so you can explore from a different view, as well as a range of watersports, rock climbing, abseiling, bus craft and so much more being available within the national park for the adventure seeker, while a simple stroll in the area is a must just to witness its breathtaking sunsets. In easy reach of so many fun-filled attractions, with Monmouth and Newport being within driving distance too, Pentre Barn is the perfect property for an escape to South East Wales.

Mardy is a modest village resting within Monmouthshire, on the fringes of the scenic Bannau Brycheiniog National Park (Brecon Beacons National Park). In easy reach of the border of England, as well as various countryside wonders, it makes a fantastic rural holiday base all-year-round. The village hosts both a shop and pub, as well as a traditional fish and chip shop and a lovely park, while a wider selection of amenities can be found in Abergavenny.

    Beautiful house with everything you need. Beautiful surroundings, and two adorable spaniels Braxton and Delmi. Most of all, the owner Marion, who is the perfect host, puts the icing on the cake to a fantastic holiday place to stay. Very well situated for surrounding places to visit. Marion is very welcoming, friendly and sincere. Thankyou for another perfect stay at your beautiful Barn Conversion. Carl & Pam & Friends, West Yorks

    The owner Marion could not have been more friendly and happy to help make our stay perfect. When we arrived the wood burner was lit as were candles making it feel like home from home. The beds and linens were of great quality. There were generous add ons, such as bubble bath, tea coffee pods, ice and cakes. This is a perfect location too, 8 mins from Abergavenny and short drive from Skirrid and Sugar Loaf. Great pub also 5 mins away. Would suggest this is a place for people steady on their feet as there are some tricky stairs to the bedrooms but apart from that this is five stars all round.

  • Lucy

    There were so many special touches and it was an absolute delight to arrive to the fire roaring and the candles burning. It was the best airbnb we’ve stayed at as a group (and we go to a new place every year!) thank you Marion. We hope to be back again soon!
