It really is Location Location Location here close to so many walks, interesting towns and castles.
Thank you for the warm welcome when we arrived and all the little extras thoughtfully included. We have had a great week exploring very different places to when we have stayed at Foxes Reach- which makes it seem further away than it is!
We loved Usk Castle, the Farmers market, Raglan Castle and Caerphilly - fascinating and dog friendly too.
We loved walking in the Beacons and preferred Garwnant to the visitor centre area.Hereford and Hay on Wye are lovely towns lots of boutique shopping if you like the French shabby chic thing. Perfect shops for that!
Must do extras Big Pit, very interesting to talk to the ex miners who are now guides. They dont hark back to the Halcyon Days and wonder why we want to visit!That gave us a more rounded view.
Abbey Dore gardens must go back. Couldnt go into the gardens with the dogs but the cakes in the tea room were lovely!
Of course the weather has been very kind and so relaxing in the garden has been just lovely at the end of each day. just what is the beautifully tiered shrub half way down he garden? please tell we want one for home.
Thanks again, our third visit and we will return soon to one or other of your cottages!
