Property code: OC-BN291

Located at the centre of Llangynidr, this property is within easy reach of the village pub and a selection of scenic trails. The Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal winds through the pretty village, so pack up a picnic and marvel at the scenery of the Usk Valley as you walk or cycle along the towpath. Keen fisherman will relish the wealth of angling opportunities available on the River Usk, choosing the best location to catch trout or salmon. Treat the family to a fun day out at the Llangorse Multi Activity Centre, 5 miles away, trying your hand at anything from indoor climbing to pony trekking across the parkland.

Inside, the cottage is cheerful and homely with comfortable furniture, bright walls and lots of additional details such as pretty artwork and thoughtful accessories. Enter via the porch, which also doubles as a handy utility space complete with a washer/dryer and storage for coats and shoes. From here, step into the cosy lounge and find the crackling wood burner, which acts as the focal point of this delightful room. It is the perfect place to curl up in front of the TV or work up an appetite before dinner with a few family board games. A country-cottage-style kitchen is next, equipped with an electric oven, induction hob, microwave, dishwasher, fridge and freezer. Gather the family for leisurely breakfasts and simple suppers around the table, settling down to enjoy homemade cake and fresh coffee. Adjacent to the lounge is a quirky snug room, which would have once been used as a prison cell to detain wrongdoers overnight before they were transported to Crickhowell police station. Today it is comfy and welcoming, housing a TV, games console (Wii), and a useful futon that can be used to sleep two extra guests if needed. Cottage-style stairs lead upstairs to the elegant bedrooms: one king-size and one small double with a 4’ bed. Completing this floor is a fantastic bathroom, which boasts a free-standing bath, a WC, and a shower. The spacious landing has an additional 2’6” daybed for an additional person.

Sunny afternoons and balmy evenings are made for relaxing in the garden, which is safely enclosed to allow children and pets to play freely. Sizzle up something special on the BBQ whilst younger visitors explore the summerhouse and pretend to drive the old tractor that enjoys a quiet retirement in a peaceful corner of the lawn. A rear porch leads outside to a productive vegetable garden, which you are welcome to help yourself to. Finally, there is a tranquil courtyard hidden away at the back of the house with additional seating.

This cottage was the perfect dog-friendly base for exploring the area. During our four-day stay, we visited several fascinating historical sites, including Chepstow, Caerphilly and Caerleon, as well as the Brecon Beacons and the Brecon Mountain Railway. The owner was absolutely delightful, friendly, welcoming and always happy to help. EverythingRead more had been thoughtfully arranged, and we felt very well looked after throughout our stay. We honestly couldn't have asked for more. The nearby Red Lion pub is also worth a mention. It's a warm and welcoming village pub in the heart of Llangynidr. While the menu isn't extensive, the food is of excellent quality and clearly prepared with care. Hide

We were very happy at Pontganol - the garden was really secure and our poodle enjoyed it quite a lot. She liked running all around the house Its very quiet and peaceful, no traffic noise, quiet nights. Two pubs and a Caf and the village shop in walking distance is great - no car needed! And walks beginning right on our doorstep.

The cottage was delightful and very comfortable. The location was convenient to Crickhowell, Brecon, Abergavenny and Monmouth. The country side is stunning with many walking opportunities.

Comfortable, cosy and tastefully decorated the cottage has a very well equipped kitchen and comfortable beds. The little extras left for ourselves and the dog were greatly appreciated.

Loved the quirkiness and character and the wood burner was an added bonus. Kitchen had everything we needed and the enclosed garden worked brilliantly for our Daschund ! The roll top bath was always a welcome sight at the end of a days walk.

Overall we were disappointed with this booking. The impression on line is that of a relaxing cottage but the location is far from that.
