Although a traditional Welsh farmhouse, Argoed is no longer a working farm, however, Anthea breeds rare Asian chickens - friends of the family cats whilst Alan tends the garden and the flowering baskets. The history of the farmhouse dates back before 1868 when it was a small keepers cottage attached to the Argoed Estate. About three miles from town, the farmhouse is circled by lush vegetation and trees overlooking the aqueduct; a retreat from noise and bustle. The area is largely undiscovered even though Froncysyllte basin is the entrance to one of the wonders of Wales.

Dinner is served at the farmhouse with prior notice. Fresh foods and home-cooking are the norm. Meals are served in the dining/sitting room which has a beamed ceiling, inglenook fireplace and TV. Bed and Breakfast guests are welcomed into the conservatory or on the courtyard under the shade of the cherry tree � where afternoon tea is served.
