My God - it's full of stars!

Enjoy the views from the Skirrid mountain found just outside Abergavenny in Wales:









The walking available in this region is sublime. Also known for great mountain biking and flying (Shobdon is where I had my first trial lesson), you can feel the fresh air cleansing your lungs after time in the city. The pace of life, outlook and attitude is just so refreshing. Don't rush - there really is all the time you need!






Staying in The Old Rectory is a treat within a treat! The welcome is genuine and appreciated. I thoroughly recommend a stay here.





The local 13th Century pub, The Hunters Moon is worth a visit for sure. Walking back to The Old Rectory in the evening (night, closing time-ish) will show city folk what night time really means. There are no street lights - it is dark! Take a look at a proper night sky - so many stars! Stunning. If you are lucky and happen to be walking back at the right time of year you might see the local glow worms - weird little fellers but neat.
