Get a taste for farming life at Wallhope Retreat. Set on a working dairy farm alongside over 200 cows you are surrounded by glorious countryside with amazing opportunities for walkers, cyclists and climbers. What makes this a breathtaking retreat is the far-reaching panoramic views from the garden and hot tub. The cottage is light and bright with two nature inspired bedrooms and a spacious sitting room with a wood burning stove to cuddle up in front of. From your door follow Offa’s Dyke or the Gloucestershire Way, cycle to Tintern Abbey along the old Wye Valley greenway, explore Lydney, castles at Chepstow and discover the beauty of the Forest of Dean and Wye Valley. Wallhope Retreat is one of our pet-free properties and therefore dogs and other pets are not permitted. Please note the owner has two dogs, Dave and Jessie. They do not have access to Wallhope Retreat but you may meet them along the farm road. Please make yourself aware of the hot tub rules and hours of use. An additional fee of 75 GBP applies and it must be requested at the time of booking.  Wallhope Retreat is set on a working farm. At certain times of the year there is more activity than others such as in Spring when the cows will be calving and must be attended to whenever required.
