This delightful old village hall (1874) was converted in 1997,
originally for use by members of our own family. We have made every effort to
preserve the character of the building by retaining the beams and light, airy
spaciousness.
The sleeping area with a double bed is contained in a gallery reached by a conventional staircase and the fully tiled bathroom, which is enclosed below the sleeping area, consists of an extra large shower cubicle, bidet, basin, lavatory and wardrobe. The outstanding accommodation is open-plan with a luxury fitted kitchen area equipped with a gas cooker, extractor canopy, fridge, microwave oven, good quality pans, cooking equipment and china, cutlery and glass. The floor is wood and the custom made, timber framed windows are double-glazed.
Decoration is in muted Fowler & Ball greens and creams
while furnishing is in modern country style with a sofa, rattan chairs, rugs, a
pew and small tables. The dining table can be extended to seat six people
comfortably, but normally seats two. There is also a colour television and a
gas 'coal flame' stove to supplement the central heating. A tiled internal
entrance porch makes a good place to shed muddy boots and to hang coats.
The pretty stone-built village of Shirenewton is a
excellent centre for exploring the Wye and Usk valleys and the Forest of Dean.
Although we are only 5 miles from the Severn Bridge you will find that we are
well and truly in the country with the advantages of a thriving village - four
pubs and a village shop with petrol pumps. We are keen walkers and have mapped
several easy walks from the house and have equipped The Studio with maps and
guides books to the surrounding area. Golfers will find a new club on the
outskirts of the village or the famous St Pierre course 4 miles away. Tennis
players can use the village court. Bed linen, towels, gas, electricity and use
of Studio washing machine and dryer included. A cot and high chair are available
with the option of a folding bed for a third occupant.
