Located in the beautiful market town of Abergavenny, The Marches Delicatessen showcases a selection of fine cheese, charcuterie and local artisan foods from across Wales and The Marches region. The majority of our food is sourced directly from producers. This allows us to see first-hand the passion and dedication which goes into making the exceptional produce we sell.
When we moved to Abergavenny this shop was a wonderful find. The range of cheeses from Wales and the Marches region was extensive and the other items in the shop, from biscuits and chutneys to bread, charcuterie and olives, to gin and beers was really comprehensive. It came as a shock, though maybe not a total surprise, when the shop closed as of January 1st this year. There's still the branch in Monmouth, which has the added plus of a café which also serves light lunches ... a bit of a journey but well worthwhile now and again.

We discovered this lovely little church and its history when walking in the area and staying at Celyn Farm. It was surprising to us that such a gem of art history is tucked away at the back of beyond - when driving there you really don't want to meet any oncoming vehicle...well worth a visit, especially if you have been exploring the lonely surrounding fells anwyay

We were recommended this site by the Tourist Information shop in Crickhowell, and were dry pleased we were. Quite a difficult drive along narrow one track roads, but didn't give us any real problems. Very small chapel with sufficient parking outside, we didn't know what to expect when we went inside. It really is a delight, very small, but lovely stained glass windows and a display of stuffed toys. Well worth the effort of getting there

White Castle is the best preserved and most imposing of the trio of Monmouthshire fortresses known as the ‘Three Castles’ – which includes Grosmont and Skenfrith – built to control the border. Originally constructed from wood and earth, a series of renovations transformed it into the significant defensive structure we see today. The displayed opening times are our general pattern. Please check the Cadw website for specific times and days, including closures.
Came on to White Castle, having visited Grosmont. This is a much more complete castle with a water filled moat surrounding it. The approach to the castle is up narrow lanes, with limited parking for about 15 cars at most. Good sign board explaining history. A lovely monument to visit with plenty of open space to picnic or run around and play games. The tower, with its views over surrounding countryside, is closed at the present time due to restrictions of social distancing. No toilets at the site and non paying. A recommended place for all the family. As an aside Rudolph Hess, famous nazi war criminal, was allowed to sketch at the castle!

Interesting and quirky stalls. Good choice of things available. Stall selling home made preserves - grapefruit marmalade delicious. The market was the main reason for our weekend in Abergavenny; didn't disappoint.

What can I say apart from this is a beautiful small walk, we parked up in the car park overlooking beautiful scenery and walked through the bracken paths down towards the wood at the 3 oak trees we turned left and walked up through the old oak woodland. This was amazing to see just one species of trees in a wood, we skirted by the river and ascended up the mountain eventually reaching the summit and the trig point, we took in the breathtaking scenery before descending down the mountain through the bracken paths and back to the car park, taking just over 2 1/2 hours for non walkers. It was about 4 miles in total and well worth the Walk.

This was only a short walk but tough enough to make you feel like you've achieved something when you hit the summit! Amazing views all around.
