Steppes Farm Bed & Breakfast Rockfield, Monmouth, Monmouthshire, NP25 5SW |
Steppes Farm is ideally situated for a relaxing break in the country. Now you can enjoy the beautiful surroundings of Steppes Farm whilst having the luxury of your breakfast cooked for you by the resident chef at our adjacent Stonemill Restaurant. Although no longer a working farm, our rooms have been designed and restored to conserve many original structures, such as the old oak beams and timbers, and so retain much of their traditional elements of construction. Set in approximately four acres of landscaped grounds, there are chairs and benches for you to sit out, relax and enjoy the splendid views. Two grassed paddocks provide an excellent recreation area, and there are goats and ducks for the children to play with. We are only two miles from the historic town of Monmouth on the fringe of the hamlet of Rockfield where the Wye and Monnow River Valleys meet the Vale of Usk. Here is a land waiting to be discovered. The countryside is so rich in scenery, colour, history and folklore and all from such an excellent touring base. |
