Foodie Breaks

We've put together a range of bite-sized foodie breaks in the Forest of Dean and Wye Valley, perfect if you love tasting local delicacies and following itineraries and want to cut to the chase on the best places to enjoy a break combining stylish accommodation with sampling the best local produce.

Introducing the Sip, Snack, Snooze Collection! Here are our ideas for taking a few nights away to enjoy local food and drink and some deep sleep to feel refreshed, nourished and inspired.

The Dean Wye is packed with friendly producers whose doors are open for visitors to come and sample their wares. Choose from cheese and cider picnics in an orchard, vegan baking courses and Welsh Cake gelato and even a hands-on experience blending your own gin, the options are endless.

And, after all that sensory activity, matched with lashings of fresh air, snuggle down under the stars in a vintage van, in a safari tent with hot tub, at a boutique hotel with its own vineyard, or maybe check in to a Michelin starred restaurant with rooms. We have it all!

Try these great foodie itineraries for tasters:

•    Beer and Boutique - Enjoy the Best of British in the Forest of Dean
•    Tintern Treats - Vineyard Delights and Wye Valley Dreams
•    Rural Monmouthshire - Memory Making and Michelin Stars
•    Severn Valley Touring - Artisan, Character and Country Pubs
•    Abergavenny Excellence - History, Culture and Classic Stays
•    Wye Valley Perfection - Towns and Villages and Glamping Freedom
•    The Foodie Heart of the Forest of Dean - is all Yours for the Taking
•    Newent Retreats - Local Produce, English Wine Tasting and Afternoon Teas
