  Following an issue with our original booking where we were double booked we were offered Pheasant Two, a bit further away from home but it turned out to be far better than we expected.

  From being met by Carmen the owner as we arrived, finding a lovley warm inviting little cottage with a well equipt kitchen and fresh tea and coffee,nice comfy lounge with dining table, Freeview TV, comfy sofa and chairs to the nice powerful shower, comfy bed (we only used one...of the two available) and good wi-fi, it was everything you'd expect and wast most welcome for our first break away in nearly a year. Lovley location and easy to get places if you have a car. Take a wander around the houses large farm which gives some lovley views over the area. We did trips to Abergeveny, Monmouth, Usk, Raglan, Chepstow where theres some lovley walks (The Eagles Nest nr Chepstow recommended but theres a lot of steps .. hint go left from the lower car park and whilst its a steep climb up, you then come down the steps..all 380+ of them rather than have to climb up them!). Only other thing to advise is that there are still a lot of restrictions in place so we found a lot of places closed and places to visit or restuarants/pubs a bit difficult to get into as you needed to pre-book and most were full......But all in all a lovley place and I'd recommend to anyone for a nice gentle break....

  The lodge was a great base to our days out and had everything we needed.

  Having the washer & drier was amazing as meant we didn’t have to come home to laundry which was bliss. The kitchen was well kitted out. The property was lovely and warm for our stay. Milk on arrival was a wonderful touch and much needed as we arrived in the darkness of the evening. The roads to access the property are steep and narrow being up a hill. The views are just incredible from the patio, so it was nice to sit outside with a coffee and just enjoy the surroundings. We had hoped to do more walking from the lodge but the roads were much too steep for all of us to venture out. (2 adults & 2 children) A clothes airer, full length mirror & hairdryer would be my only suggested helpful additions. We recommend the accommodation as being super comfortable, clean, with good facilities. With the owners on hand for anything we needed. Rachel was kind in telling us about places to go & making us feel welcome. We enjoyed our stay. Thankyou for having us.

  We had a really lovely break and we found the cottage to be more than just a base from which to explore the area, it was a home from home!

  The cottage was immaculately clean, lovely fresh bedding and towels were provided and it is tastefully and attractively furnished. We felt like we could immediately unpack and relax without any worries or concerns. The cottage is very well equipped, we stayed for 4 nights and we didn’t feel that we lacked anything. The owners are very hospitable and helpful, they were available for a friendly chat and and provided useful information about the area and local facilities. As regards the surrounding area and location...absolutely stunning! The well maintained and beautiful garden just outside our front door was a real highlight! As a family who love to be outside enjoying nature and creation, having that little paradise on our doorstep really added that special something to our holiday. We would have no qualms about returning and we can not fault anything, a big thank you to the owners for doing such a wonderful job!

  Absolutely fabulous cottage with amazing views including Sugar Loaf Mountain.

  Rachel is really helpful with all sorts from getting lost en route to helping us with mobility scooter access to patio. Although the cottage is not advertised as having disabled access I managed once I was on patio level. Very spacious inside it you can only walk aided with crutches like myself. Lots to do and see around and we definitely recommend the “Big Pit Experience” they transfered me from my mobility scooter to their wheelchair and down I went ! Exceptionally Good never been down anywhere like this and they perfected it !! The little bridge up to the cottage is a lot higher than stated I got under it in a Skoda Superb with a HandiHoldall Roof Bag which had all four of our luggage in (we don’t travel light been disabled).

  We can thoroughly recommend staying at The Pheasant 2.

  Recently refurbished, it is fresh, clean, modern, spacious and comfortable. Set on a farm just off the road, it is easy to access and has its own allocated parking space. The owners are welcoming, friendly and offer helpful advice about the local area. The beds are comfortable with good quality bedding and linen. The whole place is immaculately clean, well-organized and equipped with everything thing you need plus a few thoughtful extras. The location is excellent for visiting Monmouth, Abergavenny, Crickhowell, Tintern Abbey and Raglan Castle. There is a Nisa (Coop) store close by in Raglan, a Coop in Usk and a larger Morrisons in Abergavenny. We stayed here a week and hope to come back again as its convenient for a quick get away.
