In the Forest of Dean and Wye Valley

Dining in the Forest of Dean and Wye Valley is more than just a meal - it’s an experience. With Michelin-starred dining, AA Rosette-awarded restaurants, and unique historic settings, the region offers something for every occasion, whether it’s a special celebration, a romantic meal for two, or a relaxed countryside escape.

For an unforgettable dining experience, The Speech House Hotel in the heart of the forest offers the rare opportunity to dine in the only still-functioning courthouse and restaurant in the country. The Whitebrook holds a Michelin star and three AA rosettes, with a menu that highlights foraged ingredients from the valley. The Walnut Tree, another Michelin-starred favourite, has been named the best restaurant in Wales, while the Tudor Farmhouse Hotel & Restaurant serves flavour-packed, award-winning dishes in a beautifully restored 13th-century farmhouse.

For those who love fresh seafood, the Barn at Severn & Wye Smokery serves daily landed fish and seasonal ingredients in a striking converted barn, while The Saracens Head Inn in Symonds Yat offers classic dishes made from fresh, local market produce with a big beer garden and beautiful views of the River Wye.

Whether you’re indulging in a tasting menu crafted by award-winning chefs, a countryside feast using locally sourced ingredients, or a meal in a restaurant where you can stay the night, the Forest of Dean and Wye Valley promises exceptional food, warm hospitality, and a dining experience to remember.
