Set in the stunning Wye Valley, this location gives you the best of both worlds. Fancy a walk? The Wye Valley Walk is right on your doorstep. Want to get the blood pumping? The Forest of Dean cycle trails are easily accessible. After a day of exploring, you can soak your tired muscles in your private hot tub, complete with awning, and take in the stars - nothing beats a glass of wine and bubbles (both kinds) after a day of adventure.
The accommodation features a king-size bedroom that's genuinely "fit for a king" - their words, not mine! The open-plan living space includes a comfortable lounge with TV, fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher (because who wants to wash up on holiday?) and a modern shower room. Wi-Fi means you can still post those hot tub selfies to make your friends jealous.
Nearby attractions include Goodrich Castle (4 miles, 10 mins), Puzzle Wood (8 miles, 20 mins), Clearwell Caves (7 miles, 18 mins) and the spectacular views from Symonds Yat Rock (5 miles, 15 mins). The riverside towns of Ross-on-Wye and Monmouth offer excellent shopping and dining options.
Little Holdings is perfect for couples seeking a romantic getaway or solo travellers needing some me-time. The owners live next door but respect your privacy completely - though they're known for going the extra mile if needed.
