THE PROPERTY

Pedestrian access via the Usk River Valley walk on the Abergavenny side of Llanellen Bridge.

LOCATION
Hardwick is a fishing haven in the Usk valley and the world famous Brecon Beacons National Park is also close at hand. Although set in a rural position it is only about 3 miles south from the centre of the thriving market town of Abergavenny with national rail service (fast train journeys from Abergavenny to London Paddington are around 2 ½ hours).
The town provides for everyday needs including a Waitrose supermarket and the local area is well known for a number of award winning gastro pubs and restaurants.
Excellent local road connections provide quick access to neighbouring towns and the national motorway network (M50, M5 and M4). Local towns include Monmouth being about 16 miles to the east, Hereford, about 25 miles to the north-east and Cardiff, about 30 miles to the south-west. Travel by car to London is on average about 2 ½ - 2 ¾ hours.
USK FISHING REPORT
In recent years the Usk has been the most productive salmon river in Wales. In 2004, 2007, 2008 and 2012 the catch exceeded 1,000 fish. The Usk is a dependent on rainfall and the season starts with a modest spring run from early April that builds into very productive summer fishing during late May and June. Rainfall and flow are critical in determining how far fish will travel with high water suiting the Brecon to Abergavenny reach while lower flows confine consistent sport to the river below Abergavenny. The Usk has a late run and the chance of a fresh grilse fish or summer fish is good right up to the end of the season. September and October are the most productive months and often account for 50% of the annual catch. The Usk has some classic fly water although spinner and bait are allowed at certain times. In wet years, large numbers of fish can be present in the Brecon area before the end of the season but in most years the best of the salmon fishing is to be found from Crickhowell downstream. The best months are October, September, June and July.
THE OPPORTUNITY
Rare to the market and a fishermans dream!
We understand catch average from both banks for the previous few years has averaged at 25 / 30 salmon per bank. We understand of the nine salmon pools five are classic fly water, four ideal for spinning.
Ideal for personal use, syndicate or business venture.
It must be noted the Trout are pink fleshed and we are told are delicious!

BUYER'S PREMIUM
Please be aware all purchasers are subject to a £750 + VAT buyer's premium which is ALWAYS payable upon exchange of contracts whether the sale is concluded before, during or after the auction date.
GUIDE PRICE
An indication of the seller's current minimum acceptable price at auction. The guide price or range of guide prices is given to assist consumers in deciding whether or not to pursue a purchase. It is usual, but not always the case, that a provisional reserve range is agreed between the seller and the auctioneer at the start of marketing. As the reserve is not fixed at this stage and can be adjusted by the seller at any time up to the day of the auction in the light of interest shown during the marketing period, a guide price is issued. This guide price can be shown in the form of a minimum and maximum price range within which an acceptable sale price (reserve) would fall, or as a single price figure within 10% of which the minimum acceptable price (reserve) would fall. A guide price is different to a reserve price (see separate definition). Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction.
RESERVE PRICE
The seller's minimum acceptable price at auction and the figure below which the auctioneer cannot sell. The reserve price is not disclosed and remains confidential between the seller and the auctioneer. Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction.
