Perfect Picnic Spot!

We stumbled across this little spot during lockdown. A pebbled area on the bank of the River Wye, where people can paddle or swim. Take a picnic and relax by the river. There are also public footpaths nearby for a nice walk past Brobury Church. You could also take a trip to Brobury House and Gardens which is located the other side of the river. Alternatively if your'e feeling more active you can arrange to kayak or canoe from here. 7.6 miles from us, approx. 15mins drive **Note: Not recommended if the rainfall has been high and therefore river levels high!

A great National Trust venue. You can walk down to the lake, tour the house, visit the walled garden and cafe and there is a natural play area for kids.
