About this house rental
Stone cottage nestled on the edge of the Woolhope Dome, steeped in history, visitors can see fallow deer in the wildflower meadows above the cottage and glow worms in the garden between May and September. Guided nature walks and fishing trips available. Day tickets available for fishing less than a mile away and rented canoeing facilities with drop off and pick up points arranged. Numerous footpaths passing through miles of wildlife rich woodland and pasture. Situated 30 miles from Hay on Wye and within easy reach of the Malvern Hills, Forest of Dean and the Brecon Beacons. Ideally sited for local attractions like Eastnor Castle and the highly acclaimed Hay on Wye literary Festival. Situated in the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) there are many local pubs serving great food, a couple of which are within walking distance.

Folly Cottage is beautiful. Everything we needed, very comfortable and homely. Owners were very communicative before we arrived. Log burning fire an added bonus, with plenty of fuel.

A lovely cosy cottage for two, overlooking a beautiful valley and the Wye river itself. The cottage overlooked a lovely garden full of flowers where we spent a lot of time relaxing and watching the wildlife, including fallow deer and lots of birds.
Sarah and Richard, not forgetting Dougie the very friendly dog, were excellent hosts with lots of local knowledge ready to pass on. They also had very clever hens who left eggs very neatly gathered together on the doorstep on more than one occasion.
The cottage was ideal for two, well equipped and very comfortable.
Constant 30c plus temperatures made it even better.
The Forest of Dean (inc heritage railway), Symonds Yat, Ross, Hay, Hereford and Monmouth are within easy reach and all worth a visit.
Thanks for the wonderful week.
