Set deep into the Herefordshire countryside the rural village of Llangarron is an ideal base to explore the Wye Valley and Forest of Dean. A haven for walkers and cyclists where you can enjoy riverside walks along the Wye, or climb the trail to Symonds Yat Rock where you can enjoy the valley view. The Forest of Dean is steeped in history with ancient oak woodlands, pine forests and wildlife, and caters well for both walking and cycling. For historians you can step back in time at Clearwell Caves or Hopewell Colliery. Spoilt for choice with market towns, as both Monmouth and Ross on Wye are within easy reach. Ross on Wye is hailed as the birthplace of modern tourism with its 17th century market house and Monmouth the birthplace of Henry V Enjoy the views across the hedgerows as you travel the lanes before arriving at the barn, set within the grounds of a small holding where a pair of donkeys will be there to greet you.
