Yup, we just won Best Self Catering in the whole of Wales. Gulp! That's such an honour. Thank you, Visit Wales (the Welsh Tourist Board), for noticing what makes Wonderful Escapes very, very special. 

 But why? Do I hear you ask? Why are we the Best Holiday Let in Wales? Well, I’m not sure what the judges liked, but maybe it’s because:

·        We offer the most stunning Welsh scenery, with far-reaching views over Monmouthshire to Gloucestershire and Bristol.

·        Our grounds are a living art gallery. We’ve taken 100’s of years of accumulated agricultural junk found in the derelict buildings and up-cycled them into art installations.

·        We’ve created 5-star luxury holiday accommodation from eclectically curated, up-cycled furniture and fittings – each room unique and super quirky.

·        Coming to Wonderful Escapes is so much more than just a self-catering holiday. There’s loads to do in the properties, gardens and grounds.

·        Extra activities include a natural swimming pool, sauna, therapy room (with our incredible masseur), conservatory/greenhouse, foraging and mindfulness walks, fruit and veg picking, newt spotting, dawn chorus experience, swings, ancient oak trees, loads of family fun games like croquet and table tennis and so much more.

·        You can walk to the top of the Skirrid mountain with views over 7 counties via our private route across the farm and be top of the world before breakfast.

And if you can drag yourself off from the farm, there is loads to do and see around Abergavenny. In fact, Time Out has stated that this area is the 6th most incredible place IN THE WHOLE WORLD. Follow the link to check out what they recommend:

So Wonderful Escapes at Wern-y-Cwm Farm is the best holiday let in the country and the area is the 6th best place in the world. But actually we beg to differ:

We think we are the very best place in the world! Come and find out for yourselves soon.
