Wallhope Retreat is a welcoming home brimming with character. Inside, you'll find two beautifully styled bedrooms, a spacious kitchen, and an inviting living area, where all guests can dine together as the table has seating for six; plus, there is ample seating for six outside as well as a private hot tub that's perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring. Just a few steps away, The Nook is a stylish one-bedroom cabin offering a romantic, light-filled open-plan living space, complete with a log burner, sleek kitchen, and floor-to-ceiling windows that frame the countryside beyond. Step out onto the private deck to enjoy alfresco dining or soak in your own secluded hot tub under the stars. Set within a peaceful valley on a working farm, Wallhope Escape is surrounded by gently rolling countryside, with walking trails starting right from your doorstep. The nearby Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty offers endless adventures, from scenic hikes and paddle boarding on the river, to exploring ancient castles and woodland. Chepstow's vibrant town centre is a short drive away, with its historic castle, independent shops, and excellent eateries. Even closer to home, the farm produces its own delicious gelato, milkshakes, and fresh milk; perfect for a sweet treat after a countryside stroll. Whether you're soaking in the views from the garden, stargazing from the tub, or enjoying a long lunch on the terrace, Wallhope Escape invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and truly unwind.

Bedroom One
The master bedroom is airy and spacious with a king-size bed which faces a large window looking across to the Severn Bridge and the river. Waking up here and opening the blinds is a real treat as you are staying in the heart of beautiful farmland. The soft furnishings are inspired by the clover, fields of lush grass and surrounding flora that you can see in this area. A chest of drawers, bedside table and a dressing table furnish this room.


En-Suite
The modern and monochrome en-suite to bedroom one gives this room some additional privacy if you are staying with friends. A walk-in shower, WC and sink in white with contrasting black details give this room a professional finish.


Bathroom
Fantastic wallpaper makes the family bathroom an unexpected statement in this cottage. With elements of the farm reflected in the design you will see pheasants, crickets, bridges and lots of greenery. A free standing bath sits in the centre of the room giving you a spa-like experience as you soak tired walking legs.


Bedroom Two
This second bedroom has twin beds which can be a super king-size double on request. At the back of the house, this room has a view out onto the field behind the cottage. This room has also taken inspiration from the history of the farm, hares leap on the curtains and they used to be seen around the farm in the owner's childhood. You have a chest of drawers and bedside tables along with an armchair to read a book before settling to sleep.

Outside
The garden serves as your own private viewpoint of the spectacular outlook from Wallhope Retreat. With a corner sofa and table, you will adore having your morning coffee here while the birds swoop above you, bees visit the lavender, and the tractors get to work in the fields. Sitting in the hot tub at the bottom of the garden you feel hidden away with only the sounds of country farm life to keep you company. There is a small lawned area, a gravel pathway and colourful hanging baskets and planted borders. You are given complete privacy to really soak in this rural retreat. To the rear is a small paved area with a bistro set. Off-road parking is provided for up to four cars. Bike storage is available by prior arrangement.
