Getting to us

Two places not to go through are:

1. Bream ( small village close to us as the road gets very narrow and you don’t want to meet anyone on a particular corner!)

2. ‘Symonds Yat’ also known as ‘The Rocks’ ( This is Monmouth side ) you will NOT get your caravan or motor home up it. It’s very narrow and steep. It does warn you ! but when you’re following a Sat-Nav and don’t know where you are going you  don’t always see the signs.

Postcode: GL168LN - this will take you to outside a house about 100m North West of the turn off to the site.
