New Court Cottages, Usk, Monmouthshire


New Court Cottages – Usk, Monmouthshire

New Court Cottages offer stylish self-catering accommodation in the peaceful surroundings of Usk, Monmouthshire. Set within a private nature reserve, the beautifully renovated barns provide a tranquil countryside retreat ideal for couples, families, or groups.

Yaffle Barn

Yaffle Barn is accessed via an eye-catching glass-and-steel bridge at first-floor level, opening into a spacious and light-filled living area. A fully equipped kitchen sits at one end, while deep sofas surround a contemporary inset wood-burning stove at the other. Soaring oak beams celebrate the barn's heritage, while modern features such as bi-fold doors, a spiral staircase, and a sleek balcony offer a fresh, contemporary feel.

Downstairs, two large king-size bedrooms each feature wide bi-fold doors leading to a private patio, British White cowhide accents, and soft sheepskin rugs. Both bedrooms benefit from their own ensuite facilities—one a wet room, the other a bathroom—each with rain showers, luxury Welsh toiletries, plush towels, and stylish fittings.

Though Yaffle Barn adjoins the main house, it enjoys a spacious private garden, and guests have access to the surrounding grounds and adjacent wildlife reserve.

The Snug

The Snug is a cosy yet cleverly designed retreat, reached via a set of steps leading to a ground-floor entrance. Inside, a compact but well-equipped kitchen complements a modern wood-burning stove and a comfortable sofa, creating an inviting living space.

A spiral staircase leads to a characterful double bedroom, adorned with a British White cowhide throw, Moroccan plaster accents, and gently curved walls. At the top of the stairs, a sleek shower room features a rain shower, plush towels, and a curated selection of luxury toiletries. Thick sheepskin rugs provide comfort and warmth throughout.

The Snug connects to Yaffle Barn at first-floor level, and together they can be booked as New Court Barns, sleeping up to 8 guests across four double bedrooms. While they share a large garden, each retains a private seating area. Guests are welcome to enjoy the grounds and explore the surrounding nature reserve.

Exploring Usk & Monmouthshire

New Court Cottages are ideally placed for exploring the stunning countryside of Monmouthshire. The Black Mountains offer breathtaking scenery and a wealth of walking trails. Just a short drive away, the majestic ruins of Tintern Abbey, dating back to the 12th century, provide a fascinating glimpse into the past.

For those who love the water, the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal stretches across 32 miles of picturesque landscapes, with opportunities to hire boats from a range of local providers for a relaxing day out.
