Spectacular room available in a beautiful Georgian Grade II Listed mansion house. Each bedroom has a flat screen TV with in-built DVD player, desk, mini-fridge and private en suite facilities. There is shared use of a substantially sized character kitchen, a laundry with free use of washing machine and tumble dryer. Llancayo House also has a lovely dining room and drawing room for guests. Ideal for the business user with easy motorway access or for a lovely holiday in the stunning Usk valley. Llancayo House is close to the historic market town of Usk. Usk has many strings to its bow. For a start, it sits on one of the finest salmon fishing rivers in the country, the River Usk. Then there's its free to visit 11th century castle, the backdrop for an enchanting, romantic garden. But its main claim to fame is as a regular winner of Wales in Bloom, (37 years in a row). Beyond this, in 2017 Usk was named joint winner of the large village category in the Royal Horticultural Society’s Britain in Bloom awards, alongside Market Bosworth in the East Midlands. Then in 2018 it improved on this by winning the ''International Challenge Award (Small Category)' at the Communities in Bloom Ceremony in Canada. To show off its beautiful gardens, Usk hosts a colourful Open Gardens weekend every June. You can also enjoy their county show every September, their Rural Life Museum (with delicious cafe), and a Town Trail which includes 28 sites of historic interest, each with a Blue Plaque, all in this small picturesque town. Llancayo House is also close to Abergavenny. Nestled between seven hills close to the border between England and Wales, it truly is a ‘Gateway To Wales’. Abergavenny and the Town Hall A view of Abergavenny and the Town Hall located on Cross Street Although there is evidence of humans in the area from around 4,000 B.C, the first major settlement was built by the Romans. They called their fort Gobannium, and it was occupied from 57-400 A.D. In 1087, just 21 years after the invasion of the Normans, they built a castle in the area. A town grew up alongside it – this town was called ‘Burgavenny’. The town grew, and sometime after 1241 a set of walls was built around the town, with four large protected gateways. The town expanded until the Black Death arrived in the late 1340s, but recovered in the 16th and 17th centuries, when the trades of weaving and tanning became the major source of income. Today Abergavenny remains a vibrant town. Although there is no major industry here, the busy markets, the annual festivals and the tourists they attract support the local economy. Usk can be reached in 2.5 - 3 hours from Central London on the M4. Heathrow Airport is approximately a 2 hour drive. If you do not travel by car, hiring a car when you get here is recommended. The nearest railway stations are Abergavenny and Newport, the latter of which has direct and fast services to London Paddington departing at least once per hour.
