The Details

Escape the everyday and retreat to the peace of the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, where Rowan Tree Retreat offers the perfect rural retreat where you can unwind with fantastic access to the surrounding nature. Set on the edge of the Forest of Dean, this gorgeous dog-friendly holiday cottage is a haven for couples, small families or friends looking to relax in style and reconnect with the great outdoors. With walks straight from the garden gate into the forest and down to the river Wye, this is a true paradise for walkers, nature lovers and anyone seeking some peace and tranquillity. At the end of the day, there’s nothing quite like sinking into your private cedar hot tub beneath starry skies as you enjoy a glass of something delicious, keeping an ear out for an owl's hoot.

Step inside Rowan Tree Retreat and discover a nicely furnished single-storey detached property. The cottage sleeps up to four across two serene double bedrooms – one with a super-king bed and another that can be configured as a king or twin, making it perfect for couples or friends sharing. The light-filled living areas include a fully fitted kitchen with everything you need for home cooking, while underfloor heating keeps things cosy throughout the seasons. A Smart TV and fast WiFi mean you’re always connected, though with the surrounding scenery, you may find yourself switching off instead.

After a day of exploring, relax in your enclosed garden surrounded by woodland, fire up the BBQ for an alfresco dinner, or make use of the garage games room with a pool table, table tennis and table football. For dog owners, Rowan Tree Retreat goes above and beyond – dogs are welcomed with open arms (and treats), there’s an outdoor mud daddy for washing off muddy paws, and a secure garden plus dog-friendly walks from the doorstep. With an EV charger, secure cycle storage and thoughtful extras throughout, every detail has been considered to make your stay seamless.

Beyond the garden, the adventures are endless. The internationally renowned Symonds Yat viewpoint is just a 30-minute walk away, offering breathtaking panoramas of the Wye Valley. Explore picturesque towns such as Ross-on-Wye, Monmouth and Coleford, or head further afield to the historic cathedral cities of Gloucester and Hereford. Canoeing, cycling, climbing and even wild boar spotting await in the Forest of Dean, making this retreat the ideal base for both adventure and relaxation.
