Glass doors open out from the open-plan living space where you can prepare a meal for two in the sleek kitchen, dine at the country style breakfast table or relax on the sofa to watch the wall-mounted Smart TV. Step out onto the patio in the morning with a cup of coffee and wake up with the world. The patio is complete with outdoor furniture and a charcoal barbecue/fire pit to keep you warm in the evening. The bedroom which holds a king-size bed has a rustic exposed beam and exposed brick walls, original features of this farm building, paired perfectly with the vibrant interior furnishings. Adjoined to the bedroom is the spacious bathroom, complete with a separate bath and walk-in shower, basin, WC and a heated rail to keep your towel toasty, before you slip into the luxury dressing gowns provided by the owner.

Reviews
A wonderful week in the comfy cow which is really well equipped and warm. It is tiny but perfect for 2, the bathroom is big, the bed comfortable and the kitchen is well equipped. The view is absolutely breathtaking and it is the most quiet and peaceful place I have ever stayed. Well placed for trips to Raglan and Chepstow Castle, Tintern Abbey and the beautiful Forest of Dean. Lovely forest walks close by at Whitestone and it is not far to Monmouth. We were lucky with the weather, the only downside would be the drive to and from the property off of the main road. It is very steep, and any ice or snow could make it pretty inaccessible.
We have had the most fantastic week at The Comfy Cow. We were absolutely blown away by the view that you can gaze at right from the living room/kitchen area but on top of that the accommodation was beautifully presented and we had more than what we needed for a lovely self-catered stay. We were left fresh bread and Welsh cakes for breakfast and the fridge was stocked with milk. The bathroom was stunning also, an amazing rain show and a beautiful bath tub we could use to relax in the evenings. The check in and out was super easy and hastle free and the cost was extremely reasonable. I honestly couldn't recommend staying here enough, if you want to see Wye Valley/Forest of Dean/Brecon Beacons. This is the place to stay, I would 100% return.
The whole concept behind the cottage is great. The views were absolutely breath taking, loved waking up to the cows too. We picked a bad weather week, so spent a lot of time inside! The bath was great, decor was beautiful not a single complaint. Would love to stay again
