Old Lands, a historic family estate in Monmouthshire, has a rich legacy spanning two centuries. The main sandstone house once accommodated a large Victorian family and staff, reflecting an era of practicality. Now it hosts guests, and is beautifully styled in a minimalist Scandi way, though the family’s commitment to sustainability remains key. Solar water heating, a walled garden yielding vegetables and fruits, beehives for pollination, and chickens for recycling leftovers are par for the course at Old Lands. Behind all of this is a commitment to regenerative farming, and guests here benefit from this ecological ethos, with delicious homegrown, homemade meals, a forest school for kids and acres and acres of wilder nature to explore and enjoy.
