The River Wye is nearby for wild swimming, canoeing, and kayaking enthusiasts, plus pony trekking is available throughout the park.

We stayed at Brick Cottage for 2 weeks, and we had an amazing time! The accommodation was absolutely wonderful in every aspect. It is clean and very well provided with all one could want to make the stay as comfortable as possible. We really look forward to coming back.

Fantastic cottage for our family and in a brilliant location with beautiful countryside and great shopping in Haye on Wye. What we really liked was if we went to the right out the front door, we were in the Black Mountains climbing peaks and getting views. If we went to the left, we were in the Wye Valley, with riverside walks and beautiful wildlifRead moree, bookshops and cafes and Thursday market. A really well equipped kitchen for self catering and a really handy utility/drying room for walking gear. Hide
