Location
About the surrounding area of Llandegfedd BarnLlandegfedd Barn enjoys a very special location between the beautiful Llandegfedd Reservoir and the picturesque peaceful market town of Usk. The location is perfect for discovering the Wye Valley and the Vale of Usk, the borderland where King Arthur ruled, the Romans bathed, the Normans settled, pilgrims worshipped and Turner sketched. It boasts dramatic landscapes, fabulous nature trails, gorgeous towns and villages and a fantastic dining scene.
The very pretty Usk offers a wealth of history and a huge amount of charm. Its 11th century castle holds centre stage and the streets are packed with gorgeous shops, restaurants and tea rooms. It is easy to see why it is an award winning ‘Town of Flowers’.
Abergavenny is very close by, a foodie mecca which hosts an annual autumn Abergavenny Food Festival and regular food and craft markets which attract the very best artisan producers from across the region. It sits next to the Brecon Beacons National Park and the Blaenavon World Heritage Site and enjoys many attractions. These include the Abergavenny Castle and Museum, St Mary’s Priory Church, its Market Hall and the Castle Meadows. It too is sprinkled with independent shops. There is a wonderful natural walk around Abergavenny where you will enjoy meeting wildlife, river gorges, flood meadows and community orchards.
The Lower Wye Valley has been an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty for over forty years and has always charmed artists, writers and poets. The Wye is the first river in Britain to be designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest along its entire length from its source on the slopes of the Plynlimon in Powys to its mouth at Chepstow. It is paradise for those that love walking, cycling, horse riding, rock climbing, caving, canoeing and kayaking. The seventeen mile southern section of the Wye Valley Walk leads from Chepstow Castle to the historic town of Monmouth, birthplace of Henry V. If you take this walk, you will delight in pretty woodland and be enchanted with birdsong and bluebells when in season.
Chepstow’s Great Tower was commissioned by William the Conqueror just after the Battle of Hastings, making Chepstow Castle Britain’s oldest surviving post-Roman stone castle. Chepstow, famous for its racecourse, offers a wonderfully scenic entrance to Wales. The racecourse is home to Wales’ most prestigious race meeting, the Coral Welsh Grand National and thirty other annual meetings so you may be lucky enough to enjoy a racing experience during your holiday. There is a National Diving Centre nearby and peregrine falcons on the river. There are many walking trails from the town including the Wye Valley Walk, the Offa’s Dyke National Trail and the Wales Coast Path.
The compact, friendly Welsh capital Cardiff offers much entertainment from global sporting events, intimate gigs, national museums, a castle, cosmopolitan dining and excellent shopping. Its 76,000 seater stadium sits right in the heart of the city. Cardiff Castle is nearly two thousand years old but had a lavish makeover by the architect William Burges in the 19th century. With ornate décor, intricate carvings and rich colour tones fusing Arabian, Gothic and Mediterranean styles, it is a must visit. It offers an incredible view of the city and beyond if you climb to the top. Bute Park, a sprawling green space, sits next to the castle. You can enjoy a meander along the River Taff, look out for wildlife, visit the cafe or enjoy a delicious picnic. You can also soak up some culture at The Old Library which is home to the fabulous Museum of Cardiff. The National Museum Cardiff sits in a grand building offering an enormous collection of Impressionist art and hundreds of exhibits. Music lovers may want to visit the oldest record shop in the world, Spillers Records which opened in 1894. Chapter Arts Centre in Canton and Tramshed in Riverside are great for some evening music and arts entertainment.

Overall we can definitely recommend!
We stayed at the barn for a week and was delighted with everything. The barn is stunning with fabulous views and is very well equipped and furnished and very clean. The private hot tub is amazing with views over the countryside and oh so quiet.
