Completely wonderful

We are a busy family and needed a bit of tranquility to work, revise and relax. The Birch Barn with its light and spacious feel, lovely views and touches of luxury (bed linens and rain shower), was perfect. Highly recommended.

Beautiful property in a great location

A lovely barn with its own garden. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this modern and well kept barn. Everything we needed was supplied and the homemade cake in the welcome pack on arrival was delicious. The host Gill was lovely and she checked on us serval times to make sure we had everything we needed and that we were enjoying ourselves. There’s lots to see and do in the surrounding area including National Trust properties, gardens and castles. And if you’re a Gavin and Stacey fan we’d highly recommend the Gavin and Stacey tour from Barry Island in Dave’s coach!

Spacious apartment in Wales!

This is our second stay at the Birch Tree Barn. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay both times. Lots of space and a full kitchen. Overlooks pastures in a beautiful location. Conveniently located in Abergavenny that is close to many villages and towns to visit in Wales or England. Gill is a wonderful host and made us feel welcome. 5 Star and highly recommended!

Wonderful holiday venue

Birch Tree Barn is a beautifully appointed barn conversion with long reaching countryside views. In June the fields were yellow with buttercups! We were very comfortable and had everything we needed. Communication with the owners was excellent. We would definitely return.

Fantastic cottage in South Wales

Very comfortable cottage near the Brecon Beacons in South Wales. The cottage is very well-equiped, modern and offers all you can need. The view on the countryside is fantastic and the environment is very quiet. Gill and her husband are very friendly and always ready to help. Their 3 dogs are very kind and my children enjoyed a lot playing with them in the big garden. There are many fantastic places to visit around. We spent a great holiday time at Birch Tree Barn. A location not to miss if you want to stay in this area.

Perfection for the Abergvanny area

The Birch Tree Barn is the perfect place to make your base for the Abergvanny area. Located between the town and Raglan there is so much to see and do in the area. Gillian was an excellent host with great communication before and during our stay. The "Barn" (it's the upper floor of a converted barn but is a fully modern and furnished house) was delightfully appointed and had everything you'd need for your stay, plus wonderful extras to welcome you. Very comfortable beds, relaxing waterfall shower, spacious living area, views out across the fields from the kitchen sink and your own private garden to relax in (if you can find time from all the things to see and do). Five stars, definitely worth a first visit and many follow up ones roo

Beautiful spot in the country

Our host contacted us the day before our arrival which resulted in our being able to check in earlier. The host gave us a personal overview of the property and provided enough breakfast foods and cake to carry us until we had groceries. The location was easy distance to Abergavenny and hikes in the area. The only concern is the access to the property. It's not well marked and hard to make the turn without being very conscious of the traffic. We found it easier to turn at the adjoining property turnoff and then come back to the entry when there was no traffic. Overall, the hosts have a lovely property and ensured that our stay was great.
