Situated in a rural village with a tremendous community spirit in an area officially recognized as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Approx 1mile away from the A40 - virtually equidistant to both the market towns of Ross-on-Wye and Monmouth and with great access to the motorway networks (M50 and M4). The village of Llangrove is elevated with beautiful, scenic views of the rolling hills and countryside  around the  Wye Valley.
Bay Tree Cottage has a really charming frontage, neatly painted and recently extended it has been enhanced by a smart timber frame balcony (accessed from the master bedroom suite). The cottage garden has been beautifully landscaped and the many features include a flagstone, brick and gravel terracing, lawns with a timber summerhouse with balustrade and decking. There is a rose seating arch, permanent barbeque, a pergola with a feature statue all enhanced  by established  planting,  overall the garden has tremendous appeal.

A pretty porch with tiled roof opens to the Dining Room which offers plenty of space for a dining table and chairs and has a feature fireplace, a banistered staircase leads off to one side and up to the upper floor.
The Sitting Room is a very pleasant room having double aspect windows and further glazed doors to the Conservatory. The large inglenook natural stone fireplace is a real feature of the room currently fitted with a woodburning effect electric stove (steam flames) it is low maintenance and very effective.
The Conservatory opens off the Sitting Room and has views across the field to the rear and in turn opens to a small flagstone terrace. 
The modern Kitchen has been well fitted with wall and floor units and integral appliances with neat tiling and offers the cook delightful views of the gardens. An inner lobby gives access to a small but well fitted Utility room saving the kitchen from the weekly laundry clutter and storage.

IN SUMMARY
This is a charming country cottage in a real village community in a particularly scenic location- we know we live in this village too. In immaculate order and with stone inglenook fireplace, a modern kitchen with appliances, a master bedroom suite, three bathrooms and pretty gardens we think this has huge appeal. Incidentally the furniture could be included if required so could be your dream home just waiting for you to walk through the door or perhaps a very well maintained holiday cottage in a scenic area. We don’t think you could go wrong buying this particular cottage.  Book a viewing and we would love to show you.

LLANGROVE VILLAGE is now quite a large village with a mix of housing types from old stone cottages to modern executive homes. Working as an agent for some years it does seem to be quite sought after. Probably because it is off the beaten track but very accessible to the local market towns and the A40. The town of Ross-on-Wye is perhaps  a 15 minutes drive away and Monmouth town  slightly less. My family has lived here for 20 years or so and we have always found it to be a real community. Lots of events go on at the school and the village hall from fetes in the summer with Monmouth Town Band playing . Flower festivals in the pretty Norman Church. The annual Flower Show is hosted by the Gardening Club and competitors show everything from veg, flower arranging to home baking. WI, Yoga and Line dancing and even Playschool all seem to take their turn to use the village hall. There is a village public house serving meals and beverages. The Primary School has recently been modernized and whilst I am not sure of the numbers it seems very well attended.
Personally I can heartily recommend it to any newcomer.

WHITCHURCH VILLAGE (NEXT VILLAGE )is also a village with amenities, it has a shop and post office. There is a village pub The Crown which has quite a thriving restaurant. The village hall hosts all manner of events including furniture auctions, flower arranging classes etc. There is a Spa shop at the garage which opens quite long hours and even a café. There is another café at the other end of the village and also a furniture wholesaler.
For river trips and riverside pubs just a short distance into the river gorge @ Symonds Yat West and you have the whole tourist gamut 
Ice creams, varied restaurants and all in a beautiful setting. Plus a beautiful riverside church.

ROSS-ON-WYE has all the shopping you are likely to need including three supermarkets. All the extra things you associate with a tourist area are also available in and around the town i.e. gift shops, tea rooms, restaurants for all budgets. The river area below the ‘Prospect’ is a very pleasant place to spend time, particularly in the summer, watching the world go by at one of the riverside pubs, or perhaps the regatta from the boat house. There is a public swimming pool and a modern library. Markets are held on Thursdays in the centre of the town in the old market place.

MONMOUTH itself is a thriving town with excellent shopping facilities including three supermarkets in the centre. There is a delightful period cinema which is undergoing a refurbishment programme. The excellent Leisure Centre with swimming pools, gymnasium etc. There is a wide range of eating and drinking venues from interesting coffee shops to French cuisine.

SCHOOLS For so many parents good schooling is a major concern and Monmouth and Ross-on-Wye can offer it all, with excellent comprehensive schools with a wide 6th form syllabus and two highly reputed private schools, Haberdashers for Boys and Girls

MOTORWAY  The M50/ M5/M4 are all reasonably close giving good access to major cities i.e.  Birmingham, Bristol, Newport, Cardiff, Bath, Cheltenham, Gloucester and Hereford all within approx 1.5 hours drive away.

RAIL NETWORKS  Available at Gloucester, Hereford or Newport.

DIRECTIONS
From the A40 take the turn off to Whitchurch  and facing the Crown Hotel take the road to your left marked the Llangrove road . Continue up the hill for approx 1 mile entering the village of Llangrove. Bay Tree Cottage  can be found on the right hand side just before the Primary School and the Church..
