This charming cottage is situated in the small and highly regarded Monmouthshire parish of Cross Ash. Homes in the area are particularly sought after due to the highly regarded primary school and the renowned 1861 Restaurant, favoured for its fine cuisine. A school bus service connects the locality with both the local primary school and further afield to the schools in Monmouth. The area is also renowned for its outdoor pursuits including hill walking along the famous Offa’s Dyke pathway, the three Castles of Skenfrith, Grosmont & Whitecastle and the Monnow Valley walk plus pony trekking, and of course cycling along the national cycle route. For more comprehensive shopping and leisure facilities, Abergavenny and Monmouth are both easily accessible and boast many high street shops and local boutiques as well as renowned restaurants, bistros and cafes. A railway station in Abergavenny provides regular services into central London via Newport, whilst local road links via the A465 give easy access to the motorway for Bristol, Birmingham, the South West and London and “A” routes for Monmouth, Hereford, Cwmbran and Cardiff.
