About this property

Stay in an ancient house in Wales available for groups and short breaks

New large hot tub has arrived, now undercover area for year round use.

The manor has 5 bedrooms and sleeps 10-15 guests. We welcome guests for weekends and short breaks.

Located only 20 minutes from Bristol, 30 minutes from Cardiff, and 35 minutes from the ancient roman town of Bath. It is the perfect location for touring both England and Wales.


We do live on site but you may never see us as you have your own front door, and key-box for access, there are no shared spaces. Guest accommodation is on the 1st and 2nd floors where you have exclusive use during your stay. You are unlikely to see us unless we pass on the driveway while walking the dog.

The Manor is only 100 yards from the Norman Castle at Caldicot with its 55-acre country park. Located in a quiet village and surrounded on three sides by a high stone makes this an amazing place to relax and enjoy life.

The Medieval Manor exudes an inner warmth, and unique charm. Lavishly furnished with antiques this unique opportunity to enjoy life in a medieval manor should not be missed. The manor is a special place but is very much an ancient farmhouse, we welcome groups with children and and pets.

The Medieval Manor is located on the southern tip of the Wye-Valley, which is an area designated for its outstanding natural beauty. The manor is only 100 yards from the Norman Castle at Caldicot with its 55-acre country park. Located in a quiet village and surrounded on 3 sides by a high stone wall. The garden is there for your to enjoy and outdoor picnic tables are set out for your use.

On the borders of England and Wales you are perfectly placed for touring both countries. Less than an hours drive to: Hay-on-Wye, Bath, Bristol, Cardiff, Gloucester, Cheltenham, Tetbury, Monmouth, Brecon and the Cotswolds. All of which have a unique individual character and will inspire and entertain travellers.

We can put you in touch with private caterers or for those who would rather dine out the local castle pub is just 100 yards away. We also have a full list of service providers to help you with your plans.

As we live on site and so we are available if needed, however we give you your space and you are unlikely to even see us unless with pass when walking the dog. There are no shared spaces, the manor is very large and guests have exclusive use of the 1st and 2nd floors with their own driveway and front door. All of the interior photos shown are of the guests exclusive accommodation.

Please note we do not normally start bookings on Saturdays.

We are happy to welcome pets at the manor but dogs staying over 9 months of age must be spayed or neutered and kept on a lease when outdoors.

Why they chose this property

The manor is an amazing house, and I don't think there is another property so old in the country that can be rented. You really are experiencing history when you stay here. It's a very special property and I've always been happy to share it with the public as I believe these places should be enjoyed and appreciated so that they can be maintained for future generations.

What makes this property unique

It is one of the oldest lived in properties in Wales by staying here you are helping to preserve this historic building.
