Property code: OC-88590

Studded against the stunning backdrop of the Wye Valley, this bijou retreat is sure to set tails wagging and is perfect for two humans. Embrace this romantic setting with windswept walks and country pub lunches, spending your day roaming the Coppet Hill trail and the Forest of Dean (9 miles). After a long day of adventures, return to the soothing glow of the chiminea and relax with Fido at your feet.

Elevated above a private garage, your accommodation is bright, spacious and deliciously comfortable with lavish interiors warmed throughout by a roaring wood burner. The kitchen has everything you need to cook up a storm, so rustle up your favourite meal and dine with a view, perching at the quirky wicker table. Cosy sofas and TV provide evening entertainment, or scamper outside to appreciate the starry sky whilst the chiminea crackles. The garden also has a BBQ and a pizza oven to tempt your tastebuds. A sliding door reveals the sumptuous sleeping space with its double bed and there is an en-suite shower room that’s perfect for washing down muddy paws.

Whether you are sniffing out the mysterious caves at Symonds-Yat or marveling at Goodrich Castle, there are adventures to be had within 3 miles. Monmouth is 6.5 miles away with its bustling retail sector, and Ross-on-Wye is 7 miles away and promises outdoor adventures galore whether you wish to take to the water or remain firmly on dry land. Follow the winding River Wye and prepare to be amazed by the dramatic scenery, stopping for a picnic lunch whilst Rover has a ball searching for rabbits in the undergrowth. If you all still have some energy left, the cathedral city of Hereford is 21 miles away and well worth the day trip.

We had a lovely few days away. The property was very clean and well equipped. To potential guest, the recommendation of food at the Cross Keys was really good. Dont judge a book by its cover. The walk through the field behind was great for a starting point to walks.
