Nestled on the fringe of a Cider Orchard on the edge of Broome Farm (family home of the Ross-on-Wye Cider & Perry Company) our beautiful glamping site offers a romantic escape for two amongst the Cider Apple Trees with everything you need for a peaceful break away from it all.
Located in the Wye Valley in Herefordshire, on the edge of the Forest of Dean there are many places to visit only a short drive away. Step outside your own little holiday home and discover all the attractions that Herefordshire, Gloucestershire, and Monmouthshire can offer you.
Kate and Gary would like to welcome you to our own little corner of Herefordshire. We live close by should you need anything at all.
We are located in the countryside but only a five minute walk to the village of Peterstow, with a well stocked village Shop / Post Office and the lovely Yew Tree Inn village Pub, which is also home to the Ross Cider Company with a well stocked Cider Shop. The friendly pub serves cider and perry, alongside a great selection of beer, spirits and wine. Open every day from 12pm until late. Food from Firebird Kitchen available on Thursdays and Fridays (5-9pm) and Saturdays (12-9pm).
If you prefer to stay in, we have an excellent firepit and grill in your own little garden outside the hut. If delicious cream teas take your fancy, you can book one at Broome Farm which is just a five minute stroll from the hut or can even even be delivered to you! Takeaway deliveries are also available from various restaurants in Ross-on-Wye.
Kitchen and bathroom facilities are located in the Annexe just a short step away from your Shepherd Hut bedroom. Your own fitted kitchenette, with a large fridge freezer, microwave, toaster, coffee machine plus a beautifully fitted shower room with a walk in shower. Towels provided.
We have excellent free wi-fi and a Bose CD / Radio with cds provided of various genres plus books and games available.
The hut itself contains a lovely double bed with all bed linen provided, plus two dressing gowns and a shelf of books for you to discover at your leisure.
Try exploring the stars at night with our telescope. The galaxy can be amazing with the lack of light pollution in the dark skies of Herefordshire. You can stroll the orchards, take a picnic, or if you love to walk, there are many footpaths right on our doorstep.
Ross is obviously on the River Wye and a canoe trip is a fabulous adventure on a hot summer day. The famous viewpoint at Symonds Yat is a short drive away. The Forest of Dean is a little further but with more paths and trails than you could walk in a whole month. For the more adventurous, there are World famous Mountain Biking tracks to explore.
Parking is available right in front of the hut with an untethered charging point for electric vehicles (please bring your own cable) and up to 6 hours of completely free overnight charging for our guests during your stay.
