Why We Love This Deal

More Reasons to Go
- The building dates from 1669 and was a hunting lodge for King Charles II.
- Verderers, the hotel's fine-dining restaurant, was originally Verderers Court. It was here that judicial officers passed judgement on any misdemeanours in the royal forest. Many of this room's original features remain from more than 300 years ago.
- The Orangery serves up some traditional pub favourites, light snacks, and afternoon tea.
- The Speech House sits beside the Wye Valley National Landscape. Symonds Yat Rock is a popular vantage point, with views of the River Wye. It is less than 15 minutes' drive from the hotel.
- Tintern Abbey, the subject of Wordsworth's famous poem, is around 25 minutes' drive away. Gloucester is a 30-minute drive, and the Cotswolds National Landscape is around 45 minutes away.

We enjoyed our stay and went to the Forest of Dean to walk gently as I'm not very mobile any more. Good hotel but in the middle of nowhere so probably wouldn't return for mobility reasons. Very interesting place and enjoyed Monmouth but long drive for us from Plymouth. Excellent room and service from staff. Thank you.
