I felt valued and cared about in this lovely historical place. I felt truly rested and physically and mentally restored.

Great advanced information including full directions. Very special property and a great alternative to run of the mill alternatives. Well equipped and very cosy with the fire on in the evenings. Nice... See more

Outstanding
We stayed while exploring southern Wales and the Wye Valley. Great location, beautiful property. The room itself is charming, especially after touring local castles and ruins. FYI, the stairs are quite steep and the bed is a loft. Owners' attention to detail is impressive. An amazing experience from start to finish. Highly recommend both the Gatehouse and southern Wales!

Gem of a gatehouse!
We had a wonderful weekend at this absolute gem of a gatehouse. Really homely but quirky too! Fabulous location in a beautiful area of the UK! Chepstow, Tintern, the Forest of Dean and more are within super easy reach! The gatehouse was clean, cosy and comfortable and included everything we may have needed. Wifi was great! A smart tv would have been better but we enjoyed selecting DVDs to watch in the evening! We loved watching the sun go down from the turret and the logburner was perfect with plenty of fuel for our stay! This is a real adult 'den', can't recommend it enough. My partner loves castles and this was the perfect birthday surprise for him! Communication from the owners was excellent, very hospitable stay. Thank you!

Thanks for your lovely review. We have been using an amazon fire-stick which makes the TV into a 'smart TV' for about a year - but the instructions are in the white folder and you may have missed them! Sorry if that wasn't clear enough. But we are glad you liked the DVD's. - Juliet

We had a lovely few days at the Gatehouse and found the area delightful to visit. The Gatehouse is the perfect location to discover south Wales and surrounds. It is tastefully decorated and ideal for a couple looking to get away from it all.

Princess in her tower
Stayed at the gatehouse for my birthday. Absolutely loved the place. Cozy log fire with wood provided. We had a fabulous welcome basket left by the owners and they even offered a later checkout for my birthday.
Quaint, charming,magnificent place. Felt like a princess in her tower. Would definately return.
