Allt-y-bela - Bed & Breakfast in Monmouthshire
Llangwm Ucha, Usk, NP15 1EZ, Monmouthshire
Wales,
Regno Unito
It’s a rare treat to stay in this beautiful medieval farmhouse hidden down a narrow lane. Built between 1420 and 1599, Allt-y-bela is now perfectly presented for the 21st century. You’ll find conviviality and warmth, ancient beams, period furniture and an enormous log fire.
Wander through the magical garden created by the owner, Chelsea Gold Medal winner Arne Maynard. Find formal topiary, dramatic earth sculpture and gentle native planting, which allows the garden to melt into the landscape with no boundaries at all. Summer brings wild orchids to the fields around the house and innumerable other rare and beautiful wildflowers.
Breakfast on homemade apple juice, bread and jams and bacon from down the road. You can stay here all day or walk and explore this beautiful and secret valley with its streams, coppiced woods, pastures and drove-ways.

William Collinson & Arne Maynard:
- Fantastic fishing nearby on the river Usk. Contact Sweets on 14 Porthycarne Street Usk 01291 672552
- Wonderful walking from the front door in completely unspoiled countryside with year round wildlife interest and amazing wild flowers in season, especially the orchids in May and June.
- Usk Farmers Market every second Saturday - one of the best in Wales - Monmouth on the other Saturdays
- Great restaurants nearby, especially the Walnut Tree, the Foxhunter and the Hardwick
- Pubs with great food and within 10 minutes drive include the Greyhound, the Nags Head, the Black Bear and the White Hart
- Total privacy in an almost secret valley, invisible to the outside world and completely sheltered, where you are nearly certain never to see another soul and the only sounds are running water, birdsong and the breeze high up in the trees
