Delightful Double Bedroom in South Wales

This is a lovely double bedroom in a terraced house. The large double has views up the hills towards Abercarn. There is a desk that can be used as a workspace, and a kettle for light refreshments. There is a shared bathroom, with a shower. Guests are welcome to use the kitchen / dining area and the main lounge, and the arrangements for this can be discussed when guests check in. Please note: This room is in a private home and cannot be guaranteed allergen free. The room has a double bed, with views overlooking the hills to Abercarn. There is a work space in the room, and a kettle and cups for refreshments. This room can be booked with the twin room, and is perfect for a family, or as a private space. The host is a practising artist, who works from home, so the house is filled with individual, unique and creative pieces. The panoramic landscape of the valley provides inspiration and many pieces have been inspired by the hills around the area, and this is reflected in the house and gardens. I provide a continental style breakfast, with choice of fresh fruit, plain yoghurt, croissants and toast, and of course tea and coffee. Please let me know if you have any dietary intolerance.

Cwmcarn Forest offers something for all the family. The visitor centre provides a selection of gifts and homewares; as well as finding out about what you can do in the area. It is the destination for all you downhill adrenaline junkies, with a steep climb at the start followed by a rollercoaster decline with dramatic views of the Bristol channel and surrounding hills. There are also many walks in the area, depending on how far you would like to go. We are 20 minutes from Newport with a regular bus service every 10 minutes. There is a train service between Cardiff and Ebbw Vale every 30 minutes. If you are keen walkers it is possible to leave the house and be in the forest in 5 minutes, with hills all around. The village of Cwmcarn has a few shops including chemist, butchers, convenience store, post office, pub and three take always; a Chinese, a fish and chip shop and a Tandoori place. During the day buses into Newport run every 10 minutes. There are train stations close by in Cross Keys and Risca with a service every half hour between Ebbw Vale and Cardiff. There are no parking restrictions on George Street, but I would ask that you respect my neighbours and the limited space on the road, and park your vehicle by the Church if you are staying for more than one night; obviously please park closer on arrival and departure. Phone signal is limited in the area, and in Forest Drive itself there is no signal. But this may vary across different networks. Please also note that I do not have space to store bicycles but there are lockers available at the Visitor’s Centre in Cwmcarn Forest for £5 deposit and £1 overnight storage
