Symonds Yat panorama
#lksawaydays 5b/2020/ After a stroll around the charming town of Ludlow our plan was to stretch our legs on one of the Symonds Yat Rock Trails. The drive back south took us about an hour and by now the weather had deteriorated but not enough to put us off. After a final sharp right turn we arrived at the large car park set in the woods, the viewpoint and trails are free but there is car park charge, we paid £4.80 for a 5 hour stay. As first time visitors to Symonds Yat we decided to head to the viewpoint first and then tackle one of the trails. Symonds Yat sits inside the Wye Valley in Herefordshire just a stones throw from the Gloucestershire border. Once you reach the viewpoint you will see a truly visual spectacle as the River Wye winds itself through the gorge. It’s definitely worth revisiting on a spring sunny day. Next up was to tackle one of the trails, we opted out of the 17km ramble as today was not that day but worthy of our time later in the year, we settled on the 2.8 mile trial. The other trails look fab and on one you have to use a hand ferry to cross the river! #lksawaydays gives Symonds Yat Rock a 👍 Not many pictures taken as the weather was generally bleak so we just enjoyed the walk.

An excellent hotel for a weekend away. The staff are efficient, friendly, and communicative. The building and grounds are atmospheric and striking. The food is high quality, especially dinner in the main restaurant. Both bars are well run and the staff are flexible.

Good location but bathroom needs a clean
Great central location, easy parking and spacious airy accomodation with kitchen and dining area. However, the bathroom was a bit grubby and in need of a deep clean. The extractor fan had a build up of dust and looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in a very long while.
