Acerca de esta propiedad

Caithness Holiday Home

  • *EASTER 2026 AVAILABLE*

    Caithness is a beautiful, spacious and comfortable 6 bedroomed holiday home - perfect for large families - situated on the banks of the Monmouthshire Brecon Canal. It is a home from home, run by a small family business.

    Built in 1959, it has recently been extended and renovated into a contemporary holiday home which sleeps up to 10. It boasts beautiful views and is the perfect destination to enjoy a relaxing escape to the Welsh countryside.

    GROUND FLOOR

    During your stay, you will have access to the whole house including the parking area to the front and the garden to the rear.

    The ground floor comprises a cosy lounge with comfy 'slouchy' sofas, a log fire* for those cold winter nights and a large flat screen smart TV with Netflix and TV catch up services.

    There is a spacious kitchen diner with a double oven, induction hob, a dishwasher and fridge freezer.

    The utility room houses a washing machine and tumble dryer along with an iron and ironing board.

    There is also a quiet study room with a desk and swivel chair, several armchairs and a range of books and board games for the whole family.

    Finally, there is a cinema/games room - equipped with a 3-in-1 revolving games table including pool/air hockey/table tennis and a cinema projector linked up to a Fire TV stick with free Netflix access. It can also be linked up to laptops/XBOX/PlayStation via the spare HDMI cable.

    *Our log fire is available to use from the start of October to the end of March.

    FIRST FLOOR

    The first floor showcases a large bathroom with walk in shower and a freestanding bath.

    Bedroom 1 is our master bedroom with a supersized picture window and a spectacular view, super king bed and smart TV.

    Bedroom 2 has a king bed and a TV.

    Bedroom 3 has a king bed.

    Bedroom 4 has a double bed and a smart TV.

    Bedroom 5 has a single bed.

    Bedroom 6 has a single bed.

    All bedrooms have drawers and mirrored wardrobes. In three of the bedrooms there are dressing tables. We have 4 hair dryers and 4 fans, all of which can be found in the bedrooms.

    There is also an additional shower room with a toilet and basin.

    We have shampoo/conditioner/shower gel dispensers in both bathrooms.

    Towels are provided for guests (1 x Bath Towel & 1 x Hand Towel each)

    OUTSIDE

    Throughout the summer months, there is a gas BBQ and rattan furniture set out on the balcony, to allow you to relax and dine outside, while enjoying the beautiful views. Please note: From October - April these will be covered/stored away.

    At Caithness Holiday Home we have 1 three-person canoe, 2 kayaks and a rowing boat available for guests to use on the canal. Life jackets of a variety of sizes are available. It is possible to hire a variety of larger boats/barges for the day from the nearby Goytre Wharf.

    We have 5 bicycles of a variety of sizes if you would like to explore the canal via the towpath. The canal is accessible for over 30 miles towards Brecon for cyclists, walkers and boats alike. There's a little shortcut to reach the towpath detailed in our welcome folder!

    Fishing is available from the bottom of the garden with rods and fishing gear available for guests to use. The canal is well stocked with bream, pike, roach, dace, chub, perch and eel.

    Please note: The outdoor equipment at Caithness is our own which we extend for guests to use. We ask if guests can please take care when using it and inform us straight away in the event of any damage. From time to time some equipment may be unavailable (including the boats, bikes and fishing gear) if we need to carry out necessary repairs. We reserve the right to do this at any time without prior notice but we will always do our best to communicate this to guests before check-in.

Impeccable!

My family and I just loved our stay at Caithness. As a homebase to explore all that south Wales has to offer, it was perfect. We were able to do without a car by walking to the nearby rail station, and made use of the bikes to get to the Tesco and shops in Pontypool. The amenities in the house are second to none. Alex has put so much thought and care into every little detail. It was probably the most well appointed holiday home I’ve stayed in. The shower in the master bath was a dream! The beds comfortable, with a stunning view. I’ll not soon forget watching the sun rise from bed in that gorgeous room. Thank you, Alex for being such a tremendous host and helping us have such a great family vacation. :) Jane

Perfect place to stay

The first impressions was wow how immaculately clean the house was. Every surface was gleaming ! There were so many extra little touches just made the stay so special. The facilities are amazing. So much to keep everyone entertained from canoes, bicycles, pool, air hockey, table tennis, jigsaw puzzles, books and Netflix. No chance of anyone say they are bored ! Everything is provided for you so don't worry about packing things like tea towels, kitchen roll and washing powder like you do for most holiday lets. The communication from the owner was first rate. Any queries or questions were answered very quickly before and during our stay. At the end of each holiday we always ask the family, would they stay there again - and this was an immediate 100% YES.

Family 70th birthday celebrations

We had a really lovely stay at this property. It was in the perfect location for exploring various places in Wales and the property had more than we needed for three generations of family. Alex was brilliant with communication before our stay and the added touch of a card and gift on arrival for my mums special birthday was amazing, so kind and thoughtful. We will definitely be recommending the property to our friends.

Caithness was perfect in every way! Plenty of room for us all to be together in which ever room we chose. We were provided with everything we could possibly need. Alex provided the personal touch and was quick to respond to emails. We wont hesitate to book Caithness for a family gathering in the future

Fabulous Home in the Countryside

Alex has created a fabulous home equipped with everything you could want for a stay in the Welsh countryside. Modern well designed house with great furnishings. We loved using the games room, relaxing in the separate living room, entertaining at the large kitchen table, bbq'ing on the spacious well furnished deck, and relaxing in the perfectly appointed bedrooms. Each morning we enjoyed either walking, paddling, or riding the canal with the provided bikes and boats. With a Tesco 5 minutes drive away, neighborhood pubs close by, gorgeous countryside all around, and easy access to the motorways it was the ideal place to base ourselves for our family visits around Wales. Thanks so much Alex for creating and sharing such a lovely space.

Beautifully kept property

We had a lovely long weekend at Caithness. Everything was as expected, the property is newly completely renovated, modern and clean & tidy, which encourages you to keep it clean. We were nine people, and there was plenty of room for everyone. A few went out for local walks/hikes, and said they were very enjoyable. The bathrooms are lovely and clean, showers excellent. The view from the master bedroom is stunning. N.

Perfect Property

From initial inquiries to check-out, everything was handled with efficiency and attention to detail. We stayed 11 days and did not want to leave. Our party of 4 adults, 1 small child and 1 toddler had so much space. The views and location are amazing. The cleanliness and facilities are fantastic. It was as if the owners knew what we needed even before we did; from the bike lock, toiletries, shopping bags, matches (for our little boys' 2nd birthday candles), drawing pads and books for the little kids and the combination pool/air hockey/ping pong table for the big kids. Everyone loved the deck, row boat and BBQ. This property far exceeded our expectations. Hope to return in the near future as it is an ideal base to visit family and explore South Wales.

Best of all four places we stayed in on this trip

We promised our daughter a trip to Europe for her graduation from college, since she didn’t get to see anything but pubs when she spent a summer at Oxford with her schoolmates. After visiting Paris and London we headed here to see where according to Ancestry.com says 98% of my ancestors came from (and then migrated to Welsh Hills, Ohio…funny name for a bunch of Welch to settle). Of all the places we stayed on our trip, everyone voted this one the best. It was a beautiful place with a porch overlooking a landscaped yard stretching down to the canal. Six bedrooms and we only needed two and we didn’t need share bathrooms with our 20 year old daughter! I have to admit the driveway was a bit of a challenge for us folks from across the pond that drive on the correct side of the road. We were having enough problems making turns into the correct lanes and going around the roundabouts clockwise instead of counterclockwise (anticlockwise). So we parked on the street, which was only another five feet or so away, so it posed no problems. Up until now we’d been staying in cities and the silence at night was astounding, as were the sounds of the birds in the morning. I can’t remember ever hearing and seeing so many song birds in my life.

Fantastic property very spacious, everything you need spotlessly clean

Highly recommend this property for a family get together lots of space and rooms something for all ages . Walk or cycle to the star inn bridge 62 turn to your left. Walk through a small cut way opposite the house turn right to get to the other side of the canal for the tow path . Recommend drive out to Brecon Beacons on small road fantastic views and go on the Brecon railway steam train go in the morning and walk halfway back down get a cup of tea then catch the train back down . Great cheap day out. We will come back another time to be able to sit out on the lovely balcony.

Magnificent House, Views, Space and Facilities.

My family of 6 adults and 4 children, ages from 1 to 63, spent a wonderful few days at Caithness. The house, inside and out, is even better than the pictures. Everything you need is provided, the quality of linen,towels,furniture and fittings is excellent. Our first full day, there was so much to do, no-one except the Oldies went out, and we only went to the very handy supermarket for provisions. The games room was a huge success for adults and children, the pool table / air hockey being the favourites. The rowing boat and fishing from the garden, were first experiences for my Grandchildren and they had lots of fun. We all had a wonderful time and excursions were made to Cardiff, Newport and Tredeger House.

Wonderful holiday home for all the family.

A beautiful house in lovely grounds which was clean and tidy on arrival with complimentary tea and coffee provided. Instructions regarding various equipment etc was very clear.Communication with the owners was great. We were a mixed family group and all catered for from 5mths upwards. Plenty of airy bedrooms with generous sized beds; and cots and high chairs for the little ones. Great internal entertainment with a well equipped games room and plenty of TV's around the house; good wifi. Externally the bottom of the garden is bordered by the Monmouthshire & Brecon Canal - we used the treasure trove of kayaks and rowing boat kept in the dry undercroft with mountain bikes. A wonderful place to be based at for a wedding weekend in South Wales. Thank you.

Brilliantly appointed, comfortable, warm home with great views over the canal and rolling fields

Well equipped and very welcoming house, warm, and really comfortable accommodation. Fantastic games/cinema room was a real bonus! It was a Christmas stay so too cold for use of kayaks, but the provision of bikes and boats was thoughtful, and the bikes were used along the canal path once or twice! Thoughtful owners made the stay very easy (and great Christmas lights and decorations thank you!), plenty of information, all well organised and to hand. Bedrooms all comfortable, and excellent bathroom facilities including a spacious walk-in wet room shower. Plenty of TVs provided in rooms too. A really pleasant, enjoyable stay.

Amazing house with beautiful views!

We were a party of 12 family members aged from 9 months to mid fifties Absolutely everything you could wish for was provided, from the smallest thing such as enough cutlery/plates etc, to the boat/bikes and kayaks. All of the beds were wonderfully comfortable (my eldest daughter actually found the tag on her mattress, so she could look it up in order to buy one!) The house was spotless when we arrived and directions and access to the house instructions were really helpful. We found the information book detailing shops, restaurants and takeaway places available nearby really handy. We had a lovely long walk along the canal, and found a nice local park and swimming pool nearby, but probably didn’t do enough ‘exploring’ as we were all so relaxed! However, every member of our party wants to return, so we’ll save that for next time! This property is a real gem, and easily accommodates large groups very very comfortably-we will definitely be booking again in the future.
