Elizabeth is happy to invite you into
her home, as a traveler,
holidaymaker, with children,
professional or working person in need of somewhere comfortable and
friendly to
stay. I endeavour to make your stay as comfortable and stress
free as possible. Partially disabled people who can walk are
also welcome. There is a
floribundant garden which we have landscaped, with a couple of small ponds.
With tables and chairs for you to sit and enjoy the lovely
spring and summer and early autumn evenings, which we do get here (though remember this is
Britain!) and enjoy the stunning views. We do encourage you to
make the most of all the interesting and beautiful places you can
easily access by car, local transport etc. We are not too far
for you to visit on a day's outing to the seaside, Gower Coast ,
Swansea and Porthcawl, Cardiff about 40 to 50 miles on the A40
& M4 from here. Also on the Welsh borders, not very far are
the towns of Abergavenny, Chepstow, Hay on Wye and Usk, with
the Black Mountains and Brecon Beacons practically on our doorstep
as is the Forest of Dean on the English side of the border.
Also on the English side, is the town of Ross-on-Wye, and the Cathedral
cities of Gloucester, and Hereford, Bristol and even Bath
are a day's outing. We have masses of
information to hand to help you find your dreams! The
town center is only half a mile from the house. There are lots
of pubs, restaurants and eating places, also many interesting
shops to browse in. Monmouth now has a theatre for classical
and musical productions and a picture house, which doubles as
a theatre for our local amateur productions. There are lots of
things to do down on the river. We have our local golf club,
with several others within a five mile radius. Newport
is 25 miles away. This is
a versatile, artistic household
with many other interests to keep me busy. I used to
teach flamenco dancing and produce demonstrations for charity and
also love the arts and crafts of embroidery, crocheting, knitting
etc.. The walls of the house are covered with Phil's pictures, (a bit like a picture gallery) which you are welcome to view and even buy!
