Good to Know
A car is recommended: Nature's Nest is tucked into the countryside, with most family attractions, shops and restaurants requiring a drive. There is free parking on site.
The river is the star of the show: The River Wye is just a short walk from the tents, with private access and paddleboards available to hire. You can also bring your own boat or arrange fishing.
Dogs are welcome: Up to three dogs can stay in each tent for £25 per dog, making this a great option for families wanting to bring the whole gang.
Come prepared for a proper countryside escape: There's an honesty shop for treats and essentials, but the nearest larger supermarket is around 20 minutes away, so it's worth doing a food shop before you arrive.
Natures Nest is Seasonal: Nature's Nest currently operates from Easter until October half term, with 2-night mini midweek stays available during school term time. Each tent has its own private hot tub and firepit, while the River Wye is around 250m away with private access and paddleboards available to hire.
“We love Nature’s Nest for its beautiful riverside setting and the rare combination of proper outdoor adventure with genuinely luxurious family accommodation. The private hot tubs, river access and gorgeous safari tents make it feel like a real escape, while the surrounding Wye Valley gives families plenty of space to explore, paddle and switch off together”
