The boys have thoroughly benjoyed all the great cycle paths in the area, including the Wye Valley Greenway and downhill trails in The Forest of Dean I for one loved the hot tub afterwards! The Hot Tub at Foxes Reach We spent a lovely morning at the “Cute farm Experience” cuddling lots of young animals and seeing an Alpaca that was only a clouple of hours old was definitely a highlight. We’d highly recommend a trip to Puzzlewood and canoeing around Symonds Yat – on a weekday it is much quieter! Its been a jam packed week but we’ve made so many lovely memmories and this cottage has truly felt like home. Thank you so much and we look forward to visiting again!
