Keepers Lodge Clay Shoot

Reviewed By Juice2017 - Bognor Regis, United Kingdom

My family and I spent the morning with Clive and Rob at the clay shoot. It was excellent fun and I even managed to hit a few which is testament to Clive's teaching as I have a rubbish aim! Great place to go if you want to do something as a group. Also, where you shoot from is semi covered so it doesn't matter if the weather is a bit rubbish! They have great facilities for having refreshments too and we were looked after really well. Thank you so much Clive and Rob and we will see you again soon!

Eagle's Nest

Reviewed By G7957KZryans - Cardiff, United Kingdom

The eagles nest viewing point is located 2 miles away from tintern abbey. It is located near the small town of st arvan. If you keep on the main road on the way to tintern on your right you will see a sign saying lower wyndcliff where the car park is located. Then cross the road. Follow the signs saying eagles nest up until a quarry then turn right to walk up the 365 steps follow the signs until you get to the viewing point. The steps are a bit of a challenge but fun and scenic, the viewing point is one of the greatest viewing points in the wye valley and forest of dean. From the car park you can also follow the path to giants cave, a small cavern that the path goes right through and then the other side another great viewing point. You can then follow the path to piercefield park, where you will find the ruined and derilect Pierefield house.

Ravens Nest Fly Fishery

Reviewed By smiley77

Just returned from a great day out Fishing at Raven's Nest. Not having fished before, and having four children in tow(8-14), I was sceptical about how successful this was going to be, but we left with us all having caught our first trout, and the kids begging to catch just one more! Russel and Nick were enthusiastic and very patient when showing us what to do; with much more seasoned fishers able to enjoy fly and rod fishing further upstream. The set up is professional but relaxed, in the most beautiful of settings. You can hire your own fire pit to cook your catch if you would like, but we were spoiled as ours were prepped and served for us; delicious! Thanks for a great day out; look forward to trying out the camping next time!

Wye Valley Walk

Reviewed By ROSSHX - Melton Constable, United Kingdom

My wife and i walked the full lengh of the Wye Valley Walk over 13 days, we walked from Chepstow (mouth) to Plynlimon (source) loosely along the full length of the river Wye, 170 miles, passing regularly in and out of England and Wales, taking 13 days, about 13 miles a day, with usually 1000-2000ft of climb, it was fascinating, really diverse, and luckily the weather was mostly good. We saw vineyards, apple orchards, asparagus, potato harvest, all sorts of livestock, ancient buildings – churches, cathedrals, forts, priories, ancient woodland, farmland, moorland, river meadows, fishermen, canoeists, and a wonderful assortment of wildlife. We stayed at some wonderful B&B’s, we met some wonderful people, our luggage was taxied forward each day, we had a few blisters, admit it stretched us, but it was hugely hugely enjoyable.

Amazing Alpacas

Reviewed By fatboyslim2018 - Rhondda Cynon Taf, United Kingdom

This was our second visit to see the Alpacas. Their owner Peter gave us an hour and a half on a beautiful sunny day showing us around the various Alpaca enclosures. Having been there before we were able ask Peter a lot more information about these beautiful animals having read up on them since our last visit. We enjoyed feeding them and would recommend to anyone wanting to get up close and learn about the Alpacas to contact Peter and arrange a visit. It is an ideal day out for all the family, and should you book your visit and the weather isn't very good on the day you booked, Peter will re-arrange another suitable day for you to visit.Contact Peter on 01291 650 655 .

Chepstow Castle

Beautifully preserved Chepstow Castle stretches out along a limestone cliff above the River Wye like a history lesson in stone. There’s no better place in Britain to see how castles gradually evolved to cope with ever more destructive weaponry – and the grandiose ambitions of their owners. For more than six centuries Chepstow was home to some of the wealthiest and most powerful men of the medieval and Tudor ages. The displayed opening times are our general pattern. Please check the Cadw website for specific times and days, including closures.
