A stunning and comfortable property which we used as a good base to explore the local attractions. The roads leading to and from the house are very much single track roads (although aren't overly busy so it's not much of an issue but be warned, they are very tight!) and the tv signal isn't great (neither is the wifi within the far reaches of the house) but whilst this is useful to be aware of, none of it detracts from what is a brilliant place to stay. Great communication from the owner. Gorgeous views. Peaceful. Spacious and well decorated. We had a great week and were all sad to leave. The only suggestion I have which I think could have improved pur experience would have been a small welcome hamper on arrival. We arrived quite late (our fault due to work commitments) and ended up having to go to Tesco about 23:30 to get some bits and pieces in, so just a little something with some basic local produce would have been much appreciated.

We loved our stay at Hopewell Barn. The barn itself was spacious and very clean and had everything we needed. We loved the kitchen in particular, the view is spectacular! Our children also enjoyed visiting the sheep in the neighbouring field! We would love to return in the future.

The barn is a great location for scenery and walking. Walks are in easy reach with out having to drive away from the barn. The valley, which the barn overlooks, is beautiful and full of birdsong. The barn is fully equipped for a comfortable stay, spacious, clean and well maintained. The kitchen is huge. The host is friendly, helpful and welcoming and the location is peaceful and undisturbed. We will certainly return.

The photographs of this barn don’t do it justice - it’s very impressive. The kitchen, which is one whole small barn is really stunning with wonderful views across the valley. The seating area is very comfortable. The two upstairs bedrooms are small but adequate and well furnished. We very much enjoyed our stay.

The barn is great. It is very well equipped, the kitchen is excellent with an outstanding view across the valley. The barn is perfectly located, with so much to see and do within half an hour’s drive. There are walks everywhere into amazing scenery. This was our first experience of the Wye Valley and if certainly will not be the last.

Wonderful hidden gem

Wonderful hidden gem

Hope we’ll Barn was a delightful experience. The description and pictures do not do it justice. It’s a truely relaxing place. All that’s missing is some spa music and insense. The house is beautifully laid out and located near lots of great country walks. It’s remote but also close enough to enjoy activities and do a bit of shopping. Views are breathtaking. We will definitely be back. Johnathan was a great host and although we didn’t call on his assistance much at all you know he’s there with local knowledge and support. He even moved the sheep out of the next door field so our dog could have a proper run around. He checked up on us during storm Dudley and Eunice when we had a power cut. Could boy fault this place. Facilities in the house are all you need and is so warm and cosy for that relaxing getaway.

High up overlooking the Wye Valley, this converted barn is a lovely place to enjoy a peaceful break. It is very comfortable, with a wonderfully light, spacious kitchen and plenty of space to eat outside too. The owner who lives nearby, is very welcoming and helpful. There are plenty of walks directly from the house, including to Tintern Abbey, and it is within easy reach of other places to visit, such as Chepstow Castle.

We had a great time staying at Hopewell Barn. The photos don’t do it justice! It’s a very nice place to stay, especially the kitchen which we spent most of the time, and the views are lovely. We were very lucky with the weather and had glorious sunshine everyday. There’s plenty to do in the warm weather - canoeing, hiking, cycling, swimming. We went to the beach (1.5hr) away too. Our host was accommodating and gave us lots of helpful advice on places to visit and where to eat etc. The barn is pet-friendly and the garden is secure, except for the main gate but the owner kindly lent us some hurdles to make it secure.

great accommodation in a great location

great accommodation in a great location

This is a wonderful barn conversion with great views of the wye valley. The barn easily accomodates 5 people with 3 bedrooms one of which is downstairs. The kitchen is very spacious and light and well equipt, and a very comfortable living room. The barn really is a great place to sit and rest or to use as a base for travelling from. To reach the barn it is in very remote area along windy and hilly single track road. Personal transport is essential. great walks are straight from the door step. Nearest towns are about 5 miles away so if you want a quiet relaxing stay in great countryside this is the place for you.

Summer stay

We had a wonderful week just the two of us at this lovely barn conversion. The location is ideal to get away from it all, with gorgeous views over the Wye valley. We sat outside most evenings looking at the view and did some epic hikes up and down the valleys including a big walk to Tintern Abbey. The house has everything you need - with a beautiful light and airy kitchen (windows everywhere you look!), comfortable sofas, smart TV and very comfortable beds. The road is single-track so don’t bring a big car but it adds to the adventure and is absolutely fine after you’ve done it once! We also enjoyed the wildlife that you could see from the rural location. A perfect stay - thank you Jonathan, we will be back! Ross and Sarah

Lovely place to stay with a wonderful view

The house is beautifully light-filled and comfortable, with a magnificent large kitchen area that makes self-catering a joy. The kitchen and terrace share a stunning view across the Wye valley, so relaxing to sit and gaze at over morning coffee or with a nice glass of wine watching the sun set over the hills. The property feels clean and fresh and is well-situated to explore the sites of interest in the FoD, but also has charming walks from the doorstep if you feel like having a quiet day. Highly reccomend as a relaxing place to stay.

We enjoyed a last minute stay for which the owner was most obliging. The property was gorgeous; well equipped and very comfortable. I would say however that the images shown online made the garden/parking seem much flatter than the reality. Perhaps something to consider if mobility is an issue.

Our stay was perfect! The property was so spacious which was just what we were hoping for considering how cooped up we have felt due to COVID. The property had so much light and it was really warm. The kitchen window also sold it for us - the views were incredible. We were also lucky enough to have hot weather so enjoyed lots of food and drink outside soaking up the views. Bedrooms were nice and generally the place was decorated nicely and maintained to a high standard! Thank you very much!!
