Location and Surroundings

A Cottage Nestled in Nature — With Views to Match

Symonds Yat West sits to the edge of the River Wye, enjoying views across the river to the home of Symonds Yat Rock, one of the major attractions within the Wye Valley. You are well served with access to pubs, restaurants, the maze, butterfly zoo, and oriental gardens, along with boat trips and canoe hire. You can cross the water via the foot ferry giving access to the rock where you can climb the 120 metres to enjoy the views or why not follow the river along the Wye Valley footpath, or the Offa’s Dyke for a little more rugged scenery. Visit the Forest of Dean, explore the woodland and the family cycle trail that guides you through a mixed terrain of lakes, sculptures, and rich forests.
