We hope you enjoy your stay and find your ideal accommodation from our list of Monmouth hotels and/or hotels in the surrounding area. Monmouth is an affluent Welsh border market town situated at the confluence of the rivers Wye, Monnow and Trothy, that has skipped from both sides of the English and Welsh border over the centuries. King Henry V is proudly celebrated throughout the town; at the heart of the town is Agincourt Square. At the other end of the high street is the Monnow Bridge, the town’s trademark feature, a 13th Century stone gated bridge, which is the only surviving medieval fortified bridge in Britain. The town has a number of pretty buildings dating from the 16th Century onwards, a small regimental museum to the Royal Monmouthshire Royal Engineers and The Nelson Museum. On Mondays farmers and cattle cross the Monnow Bridge to the cattle market at Monmouth, a practice that dates back centuries. Also see Monmouth.
