Holiday in Peaceful Haven - Original 16th Century Features Meet Contemporary Style & Comfort in Black Mountains, Wales

Sheepskinlife's stunning, Grade 2 listed Monmouthshire Hall 16th Century house in the Black Mountains, Brecon Beacons National Park, Wales transports vacationers through time with all the modern comforts and contemporary style mixed in to make its original features shine. Millbrook sleeps 4 - 6 people. 

I love a farmhouse-style, family-friendly kitchen when looking for holiday homes to rent during trips to the UK. Flagstone flooring and an Aga are top of the list! There are plenty of places to find good food when out and about in this part of Wales, but eating in is extra pleasureable with fresh farm shop finds. Sheepskinlife's personalized holiday cottage rental service offers Tapas and Welsh food hampers as a terrific solution for an informal, delicious meal on arrival at Millbrook.

The Sheepskinlife team sends a personalised guide containing everything you'd want to know about your holiday cottage including how to get there, nearest essentials and where to find the things you like to do.

Millbrook features a quiet study, ideal for checking emails. Through the study a large spacious lounge with two deep sofas arranged around the enormous log burning stove. An extensive book collection next to an inviting seat by the window with views of the garden makes a relaxing spot to enjoy a good read and a morning coffee.

Open the ancient wooden doors to the spiral stone staircase that leads to one of the double bedrooms.When it’s time for bed, you will find your three double bedrooms upstairs each with their own theme and personality.

Not too familiar with the great British countryside and its rambling, romantic possibilities for escaping the outside world for a week or two?

If you're thinking of a country cottage vacation in the UK some time soon, you'll want to do your homework to be sure that you know precisely where you are headed and what the property owner or rental company provides. You'd be surprised how remote some appealing retreats may be and being prepared for self catering in the wilds of Wales or farthest reaches of England is so much more appealing when all your bases are covered.

We've stayed in cottages in the UK in the past that don't include linens or towels. Imagine how fun that is for the international traveler with family in tow to discover, after a 24 hour journey!

A read through Sheepskinlife's English Road Trip post will have you ready to pack your bags, grab passports and rally the family and like-minded friends for a week in one of this super-friendly little company's most unique and lovely properties.

Love the new site design! And I grew up with an Aga - my mum continues to use hers daily. This place looks lovely.

Thank you Alice! So far you are the first to notice. I love it too.
On the Aga, I have friends here in Petaluma with an American version of the Aga. I would like one, too!
