Dist:0.3km<br/>In summer the banks are verdant with lush vegetation, which will suffer in the coming winter flooding but at the moment the valley is at its best.

Dist:0.3km<br/>The meadows alongside the River Usk are a real asset to the town; within easy walking distance for locals and visitors, well kept and providing great views of the town and its surrounding five hills and two mountains. Abergavenny has a setting that is simply one of the best in all of Wales.
