Trericket is run by good friends of mine, so do give Nicky and Alistair my regards when you stay there.

Incidentally, they have been looking at selling the property for some time, so if anyone is interested in running a b&b, bunkhouse, eco-cabins and camping business in a lovely setting, do contact them.

Jon Lucas - I had a lovely overnight stay at Trericket Mill and did indeed pass on your regards. Alistair went off to fetch a book with your picture on the cover :-)

Ah, that book! :o

Have they had any luck finding a buyer for the place, or have they given up trying to sell?

Nicky said the mill had only been advertised for a few weeks and there was no great rush. It's a great building , obviously a lot of work gone into it.

Anyway, had a great three days out and about - rode Abergavenny to Hay-onWye over the Gospel Pass, then on to Dolgoch Hostel where I was sole occupant. Then back to Abergavenny and over the pass again. NCN42 and NCN8 played a major part. Lovely part of the UK and I was blessed with near perfect cycling weather.

Gospel Pass was easily highlight of the year, especially the virtually traffic free descent on a clear sunny day.
