It is a short walk into Monmouth and a good base for exploring the surrounding area. We enjoyed a walk up to the Kymin and completed the Sculpture Trail in the Forest of Dean. There are lots of lovely places to visit nearby and we enjoyed exploring Monmouth. We also had a lovely meal at the Estero Lounge, visited the Savoy Theatre and are missing our daily visits to the Coffi Lab for the lovely coffee and cakes. Thanks for a lovely stay at the cosy Kymin View cottage.

The house had a spacious living room and although the kitchen isn't very big it was perfectly adequate for holiday meals. There is a downstairs toilet as well as a lovely bathroom and 2 spacious bedrooms. The weather was hot and the wind out awning over the patio kept the living room cooler. The owner had also kindly included a fan on the landing. The area is full of history and we visited Raglan Castle and Tintern Abbey. Checkout The Gateway cinema at Ross , we were lucky enough to find a showing of Les Miserables, with a talk from a chap who had played various roles in the West End. It was the highlight of our holiday.
