At the foot of Skirrid Mountain near Abergavenny, Wonderful Escapes is a converted 16th-century farm that now welcomes guests for wellbeing breaks. Besides hosting longer events – from yoga weekends to men’s leadership retreats – you can tailor your own stay by booking in for dinner, bed and breakfast and using on-site facilities, from a swimming pond to a sauna. There’s an on-site masseur, and activities including private yoga classes and foraging can be arranged, plus there are wonderful walks on the doorstep.
