Lots of space, great bedrooms and very impressive dining room. Outside fenced area's are great for dog/children and having bbq. Went to naggs head pub in usk for meal, food fantastic and Simon the landlord exceptionally helpful.
Beautiful property, very welcoming. Great communication before hand and a lovely welcome pack on arrival. We will be booking again.
We had the most amazing time, the provision and cleanliness of the accommodation was first class, could not fault it. The underfloor heating was a very handy way of drying wet walking clothes! the quality of the 'welcome pack' left by the host was very much appreciated especially as it seems our Tesco delivery man was unable to find the location - you have to wonder how many windmills there are in Llancayo and it is fairly obvious on the landscape too! Anyway just one to be aware of for future guests who may also pre-book their food shop for delivery. We also booked caterers, Jane White Catering who provided us with an exquisite private dining experience, they during the evening with such professionalism and fun way, Wow what a fantastic meal we had and would highly recommend as was a real treat to be able to dine in and make the most of the wonderful surroundings. We were a group of ladies celebrating a 60th birthday and we ate, drank, laughed, played games, walked, got wet but had the most wonderful time. thanks to everyone involved in ensuring our stay was first class, I am sure we will all be back with our families. We wish everyone who stays at Llancayo Windmill as wonderful a stay as we experienced. 'Ladies who Walk' from Highcliffe in Dorset.
An absolute treat to stay there! It is going to be our yearly New Year escape. Everything is done to perfection. Beautiful place and with all the cake, wine, bread etc there is on your arrival you feel thoroughly spoilt. Can’t recommend it highly enough.
The windmill was stunning. Just perfect for my 60th birthday weekend. The first time we have been together as a family since the start of Covid. The welcome pack was superb - far more than we expected. The whole building was renovated to a really high standard and beautifully furnished and equipped. I could not fault it.
What an amazing place. There were 9 of us meeting up for the first time in 18 months and this was the perfect place. Enough space for us all to be together but plenty of places to retreat to if we needed. The windmill had everything we could need. One day was a bit wet so we chilled out for the day there, so relaxing. Lovely surroundings, cant and fault it.
What an amazing property, would definitely recommend this place. The owners left welcome Gifts for us even down to a freshly made Victoria sponge cake. A truely picturesque place to stay
An absolutely amazing once in a lifetime experience with everything and more catered for!!!!
Excellent and unusual place for a family weekend - great accommodation - lovely and clean on arrival - nice set of started food/wine - great dining area and good kitchen for cooking a feast for 1 guests - great walking in the surrounding areahighly recommended
Fantastic, unique property with huge ‘wow factor’. I took a group of friends away to celebrate my 50th Birthday and a great time was had by all! The windmill offers everything you need for a short break, is beautifully appointed and decorated and offered ample space for a party of 40-odd guests. I’m sure we’ll stay here again.
The place was beyond our expectations. Beautifully decorated with no expense spared. Had everything you could wish for. The hamper was amazing and delicious with wine, bread, cake to name but a few. A magical place to stay.
We booked the windmill as a surprise location to celebrate my husband's 70th birthday. The accommodation was spotlessly clean; all essentials provided along with a stock of replacement/spares where appropriate. The additional extras such as spices, cereals, eggs, biscuits and even a cake, wine and fresh flowers!! The hosts were extremely helpful and really helped to make our stay a wonderful experience. We stripped the beds, put everything back as found (we had moved lamps into the living area as we all found the lighting in there rather harsh) and left it all neat and tidy. It was a pleasure.
An excellent, unusual, well maintained property that we used for our 30th wedding anniversary. I cannot fault the facilities in a beautiful setting. All who came thought that it was fantastic!!
The property is Amazing. The location and quality was superb. We had everything we needed for a wonderful weekend of celebrations.
Mainly it was excellent, but it is a pity that all the double beds are so small, yet the chairs round the dining room table are huge, so that it is difficult to have a friendly cosy conversation as we were all so far apart. Also, the table in the kitchen was really too small to work on, or have breakfast for a few people at a time. We were glad of the fenced off grass area round the barbecue where we could let the puppy run round. Maybe the decor and 'objets d'art' could be a bit more homely - having so much stone around is quite chilly anyway, and we felt that much of the decor was also a bit 'cold' - but maybe that is a personal complaint, and not felt by others. Otherwise, it was an excellent location - though possibly if we hadn't planned to be out all day, the noise from the industrial area two fields away might have been a bit annoying. However, apart from the first sentence, the general impression was very good, and we would certainly rebook again.
Excellent Location and lovely surroundings, Renovated to a high standard. we all enjoyed are stay for my wife's 50th birthday
It surpassed all our expectations It was beautifully furnished throughout and everything you could want was supplied. We had the most fabulous time and would recommend to anyone as a unique experience.
We had a wonderful family holiday (10 adults and 2 children) and stayed for the whole week. We have stayed in accommodation before where there either wasn’t enough seating for everyone to eat together or the kitchen was under-equipped. This definitely is not the case at Llancayo windmill, The dining area is superb, and the kitchen is very well equipped allowing you to cook and feed the masses. It is in a beautiful setting and the owners were extremely helpful and friendly.
Thank you so much for your lovely review for our special windmill.
What an amazing place! My friends and I had a fantastic time at Llancayo Windmill, such a special venue and so well equipped. From the moment we drove up the long impressive drive to the windmill we were all blown away. The owners have done a fantastic job renovating this amazing building. Great bedrooms, amazing lounge and dining room, perfect for our 40th celebrations. Lots to do in the area too, I cam highly recommend the Ancre Hill Estate for some wine tasting and Monmouth canoe hire for a trip down the river, and for a real treat have Jane White info@janewhitecatering.co.uk cook for you at the Windmill. Thank you it was epic, the fact we arrived in the middle of a heat wave too was the icing on the cake.
We loved the situation and interesting property. However, cleanliness was not of the best, with lots of cobwebs on, e.g. the bannisters, and a nest of beetles under the bin in the kitchen. My husband and I had the double room with en suite in the tower (the lower of the two bedrooms, so on the floor above the lounge), but the shower was very small and almost impossible to move in - and we are not large people! There are only four metal chairs on the balcony, so not enough for everyone to sit out there at the same time, e.g. evening drinks. A good fun holiday, though, in a lovely area.
