This characterful two-storey cottage in the rural hamlet of Earlswood is perfect for families or friends looking for a relaxing holiday close to the Wye Valley. The lovely town of Chepstow is six miles west, offering a good selection of eateries to suit all tastes and steeped in history with a Norman castle overlooking the Wye River. Walkers can enjoy the countryside along waymarked paths from your front door, including Wentwood, the largest ancient woodland in Wales.

This former schoolhouse offers a warm welcome and retains a country style that blends seamlessly with contemporary comforts to ensure a memorable stay.
