Being at the cottage will give you a profound experience of being in time.

Graig Ddu is sheltered in the forest half-way down the hillside in the mystical Llanthony Valley.  Snug and silent, immersed in timeless tranquillity, it sits on the fringe of 21st Century life.

All Around

From a vantage point high on the grassy plateau where red kites wheel and long-suffering mountain ponies neatly nibble, the great dome of the moorland unfolds into wave upon wave of interlocking mountainous beauty.

Scoured out by a malevolent Ice Age in retreat, drawing the visitor deep into the hills, the Llanthony Valley gracefully insinuates its way into the heart of the majestic Black Mountains.
