Go through the gates and you are 50 yards from the centre of historic Abergavenny café culture, with its many coffee shops and bistro’s. Originally the site of a Roman fort, Gobannium, Abergavenny became a medieval walled town within the Welsh Marches, with its own Norman castle.
If walking or cycling is your thing, then Abergavenny is the gateway to the mountains, including the nearby Sugarloaf, the Blorenge, with the famous ’The Tumble’ cycle hill climb, and the five hills, Ysgyryd Fach, Deri, Rholben, Ysgyryd Fawr and Mynyd Llanwenarth.

Fishing, golf and horse riding are all available nearby.
After all that walking or cycling and Welsh fresh air, why not relax and listen to the live music at the local public house, 50 yards away, on a Friday or Sunday evening, or simply relax in the courtyard with a glass of local wine? Shop, pub and restaurant 50 yards.
