A haven of peace and tranquility this beautiful Victorian villa is ideally located in the lovely county of Monmouthshire South Wales overlooking the banks of the River Usk. Just a 5-minute stroll away from the picturesque town of Usk the privately-owned Glen-Yr-Afon aims to offer a relaxing stay in rural South Wales. A traditional Victorian property no 2 rooms are the same. Each one has its own individual character style and space. Some rooms even have 2 floors making them ideal for families.

Lovely hotel building in nice...

Liked: Breakfast was excellent and a good saving when booking the room with breakfast included.
Disliked: The shower leaked all over the floor in the bathroom, meaning we had to put towels down that were then soaking wet all over the floor. Had to put shoes on so we didn't get wet feet / socks when using the bathroom! There was a strong chemical smell when we first went into the room. As this chemical smell diminished it was replaced by a very strong smell of body odour which got considerably worse throughout our stay, I presume the chemical smell was an attempt to mask the odour. By the morning it was pretty honking! It certainly wasn't us as we'd had a shower on arrival and first thing in the morning! I'd suggest a deep clean of the room and to address the leak in the bathroom asap. It's a lovely building and in a great location. I slept reasonably well, but it would've been a lot better without those issues and it's not a cheap place to stay at, so certainly didn't expect these kind of problems. Dinner is incredibly expensive here, so i'd recommend the very short walk into Usk for some better and more reasonable options... We only stayed for 1 night. I would stay here again, but if i encountered any problems i'd make a point of raising them on arrival next time. I did mention this to staff when we left.

Very enjoyable. I wouldn't hesitate...

Liked: The cooked breakfast was very good, completely non greasy. The evening meal was very tasty, with large portions.
Disliked: There was not a buffet for the continental breakfast. I would prefer to choose my own breakfast items. I do not have a big appetite and would usually select small portions of what was available.
