Cider HouseNear Abergavenny, near Brecon Beacons, Wales Sleeps 2

Whether it’s the marvellous garden or the craftsmanship in the cottage, loving care and passion for details embrace you at Cider House.

From when it worked hard pressing apples, Cider House always had a strong relationship with its natural surroundings. Today it relaxes in a tranquil garden alive with the colours of the changing seasons. Life at Cider House is encouraged to go more slowly now, the sumptuous bed whiles away mornings and the cosy log burner brings on the early hours with ease.

Things you should know

Cider House is stand alone but next to the owners’ home. However the relationship of the buildings does ensure privacy and seclusion.

The bedroom is long and generous in floor space but a little short in height, be careful not to bump your head on the sloping roof.

The kitchen is fully equipped for cooking a feast but has no dishwasher.

Lounge on the cosy sofa in front of the generous log burner and listen to music on the B&W Zeppelin iPod docking station but the TV unfortunately has very poor reception. Cider House has a DVD player & we have provided a few DVD’s but it’s best to bring your own.

Mobile reception is poor depending on your network. You can get a signal if you walk about 200m out of the dip. There are no internet facilities.

Pets unfortunately can’t be accepted at Cider House.
