About this property

Enjoying a peaceful setting within a pretty village and close to the Wye Valley Arts Centre, this spacious single storey , 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom cottage is pet friendly and simply perfect for small families and friends wanting to explore an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Llandogo is a small village between Monmouth and Tintern, set on the banks of the River Wye, where you can enjoy an abundance of wildlife and river walks with breathtaking scenery. The neighbouring village of Tintern is just 3 miles south, home to a magnificent 12th century abbey that dominates the landscape. Walkers can take advantage of the Offa s Dyke and Wye Valley Trail, whilst cyclists take on the National Cycle Trail. The River Wye is popular for kayaking and some of the best fly fishing in the UK. For history buffs, there are a myriad of castles including Chepstow, Caldicot and Raglan, and some of the largest Roman settlements in the UK at Caerwent and Caerleon, all within a 30 mile radius. One famous visitor to Llandogo, William Wordsworth, once wrote about the cottages on the hills and the wreaths of smoke sent up in silence, from among the trees. However, in the 18th and 19th century it was known for boatbuilding and the lodge is part of the converted Lion Sawmill which produced small items of furniture from the offcuts of the trees felled for boat building and architectural construction. The lodge enjoys a peaceful location and is accessed via the gardens to the rear. Two rustic chairs are situated close to the door where you can take a seat to remove muddy boots or to enjoy a glass of wine in the evening looking out to the Wye Valley. Enter into the spacious kitchen/diner which enjoys natural light from the picture windows and has been beautifully and practically furnished. There s a comfortable sofa where you can relax with a good book or to watch dinner being prepared, and a dining table and chairs is perfect for a hearty supper. The cleverly configured kitchen has a breakfast bar with four bar stools, and is well equipped with everything you ll need during your stay. A collection of local artwork finishes the space beautifully. Enter the lounge where you can truly relax.
