Get a taste for farming life at Wallhope Retreat. Set on a working dairy farm alongside over 200 cows you are surrounded by glorious countryside with amazing opportunities for walkers, cyclists and climbers. What makes this a breathtaking retreat is the far-reaching panoramic views from the garden and hot tub. The cottage is light and bright with two nature inspired bedrooms and a spacious sitting room with a wood burning stove to cuddle up in front of. From your door follow Offa’s Dyke or the Gloucestershire Way, cycle to Tintern Abbey along the old Wye Valley greenway, explore Lydney, castles at Chepstow and discover the beauty of the Forest of Dean and Wye Valley.

Last year my sister had a little boy. My sister and I normally go away every year for a week’s holiday in the sun, along with my best friend. Not wanting to be away from her little one this year, we decided on a staycation over Easter. My mum also joined us with my little nephew.

We were not disappointed in our choice of accommodation. The cottage is beautifully appointed with stunning views. Every room is tastefully decorated with a homely feel. The kitchen is well equipped and having the hot tub was an added bonus, especially with the uninterrupted views over the fields and the river.

We had a wonderful stay, and the owners were very friendly and welcoming.

We loved the addition of the milkshake, milk and ice cream vending machines.

I would definitely recommend Wallhope Farm to anyone wanting a restful break, with rural views and plenty of places to go sightseeing and walking. The town of Chepstow has some good restaurants if you want to venture out, otherwise the cottage has everything you need for a self-catered holiday.

We will be back!

A brilliant find! We received a friendly welcome from the owners and the cottage is in a wonderful setting with stunning views over the Severn. The cottage was immaculately clean and the quality of the furnishings was very high, including the best mattresses we have slept on. We would happily return. Thank you!

My wife and our two daughters wanted to get a few days away after a very busy and hectic October.
We found Wallhope Retreat, it ticked all the boxes, looked stunning and it was available!
We booked around 10am and arrived the same day.
Once we arrived it was clear that not only did it live up to the website but in fact it exceeded it!
Beautifully furnished and decorated, exactly to our tastes.
Sarah was available but left us to ourselves, the perfect host.
We will be back, no doubt about it

We stayed at Wallhope Retreat over New Year 2024 and had a brilliant time.
The farmhouse is excellent, furnished beautifully throughout, and the owners Sarah and Paul have clearly catered for all eventualities. The free-standing bath in particular was lovely!
We were looking for a relaxing family New Year break after the Xmas rush, and this was perfect for us.
The location is great, situated within the dairy farm, and the kids loved popping round to ‘Moo HQ’, 30 seconds from the front door, to top up with fresh milk and milkshakes! The views over the farm down to the River Severn are fantastic, especially from the comfort of the hot tub!
We also enjoyed lots of great walks direct from the house, with the Gloucestershire Way and Offa’s Dyke routes passing directly through the farm.
Sarah was always on hand too if we needed anything, and checking in on us during Storm Henk, making sure we had everything we needed.
We would absolutely recommend Wallhope Retreat to others.

The standard of this place is amazing. The hot tub and the large bath upstairs are so nice.

The views across the fields to the river are stunning.

Can't recommend this place enough. Some great local walks that don't involve getting in the car as well.

We loved our stay at Wallhope. We were greeted by a spectacular view which took in the countryside and the Prince of Wales bridge. The cottage is beautiful - lovingly furnished and very comfortable and cosy. The perfectly placed hot tub in the garden is a real x-factor.

Sarah and Paul were also fantastic hosts. We were even treated to a brilliant tour of the dairy farm which our little boy loved!

This is called a retreat and it really is. We arrived exhausted from work and left feeling completely revitalised.

We are two mamas and a toddler. The bedrooms are MASSIVE. The cot was perfect for our 2 year old (the sides were super high which put our minds at ease) and the high chair was really easy to use and wipe clean. We had fun giving her a bath each night. It was beautiful.

The moment we walked in we were hit with the most incredible fresh smell and greeted with homemade scones, fresh butter and local jam. We even sourced the hand soap and had it waiting for us when we got home!

The house is so bright due to the many incredible windows that look out to the fields.
The first words our daughter yelled each morning was moo moo cows! as she raced to find them from the many windows! I can’t tell you how many times we played hide and seek including in the garden with her teddy bear. It was truly magical.

The hot tub was easily the best we have used. Easy to take the lid off and pop back on and the views were amazing. There were beautiful little lights in the garden which made it feel even more special.

Sarah was a lovely host and you could see she took pride in the Wallhope. She has staged the house perfectly.

We visited the surrounding towns which were lovely (the Forest of Dean had a fun walk for our daughter) but we didn’t feel the need to leave much more as we were so relaxed there.

This really was the most perfect retreat!

Sarah and Paul have made a wonderful little retreat on their diary farm.
They are both great hosts very hospitable, kind and helpful. The same goes for the dogs and cows .
Certainly take the farm tour with Paul he is an excellent story teller.

The whole place is very nicely build, spotless with a high standard finish. The kitchen is really outstanding equipped in regard to other places we have been to.
The beds are excellent.
Outside you have a great view over the fields and in the far the river. We enjoined the Hottub and the provided BBQ.
It was a perfect stay.
