Description

Lower Freedom Cottage is situated in 23 acres of ancient woodland in a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) within the Wye Valley, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). This idyllic location high above the historic port of Llandogo is where famous poet William Wordsworth was inspired to write his romantic poetry and where Bertrand Russell, the distinguished British philosopher was born in near-by Cleddon Hall. The original cottage was likely home to workers managing surrounding woodland and sheep pens. It is an unspoiled country home of great character and charm having three reception rooms, four bedrooms and two bathrooms, all presented in excellent order. The property benefits from a large array of energy efficient solar panels. There is direct access to long woodland walks including the Wye Valley walk from St. Arvans to Monmouth and the Queen Victoria’s Drive a Carriageway that extends from Cleddon Hall to Penault. The Wye Valley is where documented tourism first took place during the Victorian era. It is exceptionally rich in local history and recognised as one of the most beautiful locations in the country.
