Warmth and Wonder

We love coming to The Barn! We love the big skies, warm brews, and deep sleeps. We have been coming to give our souls a rest for about 8 or so years and it always gives us what we need.

Gorgeous accommodation and beautiful setting. Had everything we needed to help us relax and unwind. The perfect get away from it all spot.

Our second visit to W&W, and it was just as magical as our first! We can't wait to return - everything about the farm, the barn, and the surrounds is truly perfect.

What a stunning place to stay! Tucked away in the beautiful quiet countryside with amazing views across to the black mountains. We had a lovely stay in the Barn, spacious and well equipped, comfy bed, great amenities and a gorgeous log fire for the few chilly July evenings we had! Most welcome after some long walks and a visit to the local pub. We enjoyed a great afternoon canoeing from Glasbury to Hay followed by a look around the shops . We will definitely be back, again, thanks Matt and Polly for a wonderful stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Barn. Fantastic weather helped but the Barn is equipped for any weather - a log burner with a good supply of logs, games and comfortable beds. The look is retro, the ethos environmentally friendly and the views inspiring. Great location for walks, country pubs, Abergavenny and just about the Hay Festival. If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of normal life you couldn’t beat this. A warm welcome by Matt and an excellent information book got us off to a good start and things carried on the same way....

Our late summer family holiday at Warmth and Wonder's barn was one of the most relaxing breaks we've had in a long time. While only around 3 hours from our home just west of London, it was a total escape from the frantic pace of our usual life. A gentle charm exudes the farm as you make your way up the drive, orchard on one side and fields rising on the other to the top of the slope where the welcome of the wooden barn awaits. The view is nothing short of splendid and the eye is soothed by the...

We have holidayed in many cottages over the years and this was hands down the best cottage we've stayed at. Everything about it was spot on. I particulalry loved the outside space (the little hut, the multiple sitting areas, the space, the quietness), however that does not belittle the inside. It is not often you can holiday in the UK with 2 teenage kids & everyone would want to stay longer. Thoroughly recommend.

Just what we were looking for: the seclusion, space, quality of natural/built environment and the obvious care taken by the hosts to create something special, were so welcome. We have already booked again.

Matt and Polly have created something really special at Garn Farm. It's a beautiful spot – and it was a privilege to spend a few nights there. The barn is super comfortable, with everything you need. And if it's an escape to somewhere tranquil that you are after, then this is it. Add to that tranquility the amazing views, and it all adds up to a place that is very hard to leave.

We had a beautiful stay at the Barn. Facing the Black Mountains, surrounded by streams, sheep, ducks and hens, the Barn is a very cosy retreat for a family of 4. A great week for walking and enjoying nature as a family.

Really enjoyed our stay at Warmth and Wonder, the views of the Black Mountains are spectacular, the Barn cosy and the farmland to explore with pigs and chickens to feed! You have everything you need to have a restful stay and within reach of lots of walks and places of interest to visit.

What a little hidden gem. An absolutely beautiful barn with wonderful touches, both inside and out, the photos don’t do it justice. A delightfully rural location, walks straight from your door, an idyllic and relaxing break was had. Thank you. Can we keep this our secret 🙂
