Plan Unforgettable Day Trips from Croes Vaen
When you stay with us at Croes Vaen, you’ll find yourself perfectly positioned to explore some of the top attractions that make Monmouthshire such a jewel in Wales’s crown.
Find the Treasures of Monmouthshire
Dip your toe into the past and get lost for a day in the rich history that seeps from this ancient land.
With nine unique castles to explore, including the grand Raglan Castle and the fascinating ruins of Tintern Abbey, you’ll be swept back in time to an era of knights, legends, and ageless stories.
If you prefer your adventure a little more cultured, there is much to learn about the Monmouthshire artistic soul at the region’s museums and galleries. The Nelson Museum and Local History Centre, Monmouth, the Shire Hall, Abergavenny, and many more offer a slightly different kind of treasure hunting. Spend hours here exploring the many artefacts and works of art and see if you can deep-dive into life here in the “quiet” side of Wales.
