For those of you who have messaged to ask (and those who haven’t 🤣)
Here’s just a smattering of things to do in Monmouthshire!
There’s castles galore here to visit, where you can explore the history, and take in some stunning views!
Chepstow castle, Raglan Castle, White Castle, Usk Castle, Tintern Abbey, Abergavenny Museum and Castle, Caldicot Castle, Monmouth Castle and Military Museum, and there are some ancient ruins at the Lost City of Trelleck.
Dewstow Gardens & Hidden Grottoes are meant to be absolutely stunning, I’ve not been there myself yet, but my Mum and Aunty have, and they loved it.
A personal favourite walk of mine is the Wye Valley stretch of the Offa’s D**e Path which starts (or ends!) near Chepstow, you will pass Devil’s Pulpit and enjoy the most breathtaking views of Tintern, and Tintern Abbey, If you’re staying at The Old Coach House this is a must do walk, also the Wye Valley Walk passes the front door!
As well as the castle Raglan has a Farm Park, a golf course, and The Big Pit National coal Museum is close by, which is open everyday and free to enter, you need to pre book your underground tour.
And of course there’s all the bike trails, hiking, canoe and kayak hire, and all the activities just across the Wye, in the Forest of Dean!
Plus so much more!
