A peaceful and spacious country home, in the heart of a quiet rural village.

This luxury country cottage located in the heart of the pretty country village of Longtown, Herefordshire offers a perfect rural retreat for families and friends.
Enjoy an idyllic country escape at Tri Afon; wake to the relaxing sound of birdsong, potter around the traditional gardens, and hunker down in front of the woodburner on crisp winter nights. Explore the rugged beauty of the Black Mountains from the doorstep, before returning home to spend a night under ountrythe stars in the hot tub.
Inside
Step into the oak-framed porch, kick off your boots, and enter the hall, the heart of the home. Head into the comfy living room, well equipped with luxurious Duresta sofas, a wood burner waiting to be lit, a television, and plenty of books and board games for you to enjoy.
Follow the hallway through into a large traditional kitchen, where delicious homemade cupcakes and welcome goodies await. The long oak table in the kitchen is perfect for hosting any special occasion.

On the ground floor there is also a convenient WC and a separate cosy snug with smart TV & DVD player, perfect for movie nights.
Head up the mahogany stairs where you will be greeted with glorious panoramic mountain views, and a spacious landing area. Upstairs you will find three large bedrooms with inviting superking beds, the comfiest Vispring mattresses, and luxury White Company bed linen to ensure the perfect night’s sleep. The third bedroom can be made into two full-sized single beds upon request at time of booking. All three bedrooms have their own modern bathroom, two as en-suite shower rooms and one as a family bathroom with bath, waterfall shower, and bidet.
Outside
The cottage is surrounded by mature gardens filled with beautiful blooms. French doors lead onto an enclosed sun-trap patio, with a large oak table offering seating for six and a charcoal Weber barbecue, perfect for alfresco brunches and summer suppers.
Another idyllic patio area at the back of the property provides further seating. Hang your robes on the outdoor hooks, step into the bubbling Jacuzzi hot tub, sit back and admire the views and starry skies. Adjacent to the hot tub you will find a sizeable games room with football and ping pong tables, ideal for a great night of entertainment.
Carry the giant Jenga and boules set out onto the lawn for extended family fun, or escape with a good book and a cup of tea to the bench at the bottom of the garden for some peace and quiet.
A short 5 minute walk takes you to the award-winning local shop, Hopes of Longtown, and the village pub, The Crown Inn, and a ramble down the lane at the bottom of the green will take you to the base of Hatterrall Hill, with paths leading up to the summit.

Reviews
We had a wonderful BH stay in Tri Afon, it was perfect for a 60th Birthday celebration. Everything has been well thought out in this comfortable home. We made use of the fabulous hot tub, games room (great table tennis tournaments!), had a BBQ and spent the evenings in the gorgeous sun room. Everything in the house was of great quality, the sofas (so comfy!), the beds and kitchen well stocked with everything. The little touches helped make this a truly memorable family get together, diolch.

An absolutely lovely property. Well equipped, very comfortable, everything has been thought of by the owners. The hot tub is a real treat. The location is fantastic, with great walks from the door. Will be back.

Excellent base for walking and also relaxing. All the little extras so very helpfullike flip flops to get to the hot tub. Spacious homewell set out for 6 adults so we could sit together but also find our own space. Was a bit worried about the narrow roads, but soon got used to them and were no problem. The locals very friendly. Plenty to do locally – lots of footpaths, local walks. Local shop handy, but drive into Abergavenny pretty convenient as well. Lovely wool shop in Abergavenny too.

Everything was truly amazing! Exceptionally well appointed and kitted out. Lovely setting! Beautiful hot tub. Lovely welcome basket. Lots of thought put into the entire experience. Would love to stay again – very much appreciated by 3 generations within our party of 6! Wonderful village shop was an added bonus!!

A really beautiful holiday cottage in a superb setting, stunning 360 degree views of the mountains and countryside. There is nothing you need to bring with you, as the owner has thought of absolutely everything to make your stay as easy and as comfortable as possible. Our party consisted of six adults and two dogs. The hot tub is excellent and was plenty roomy for us to enjoy all together. The boot room is a good size and our German Shepherd was most content sleeping in there. Just fabulous!

“Absolutely beautiful 😍 with stunning views and a log fire and hottub to top it off! Remote cottage with everything you need for an escape from reality but with wifi !! Loved spending quality time with friends, playing board games, going for walks, bubbling away in the hot tub and watching movies infront on the log fire. What more could you want!!”

“Beautiful location and a well appointed house with so much to offer – the hot tub was great, provisions in the kitchen went above and beyond our expectations and the beds were so comfortable. We really couldnt have asked for more. A perfect house for a weekend away for three couples.”
