Location
The nearby village of Whitchurch is highly sought-after. The idyllic community is found in the heart of the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and offers many crown jewels in the form of its local amenities, and arguably its most dazzling is the Church of England Primary School, which boasts a coveted 'Outstanding' Ofsted rating. In recent years, this has been placed in the top 2% of schools nationally for the progress that children make in reading, writing and maths.
The village features a popular shop, Woods of Whitchurch which also operates as a reputable coffee shop and takeaway, there are several other hospitality venues in the village and a selection of reputable riverside pubs and restaurants are within walking distance in the spectacular setting of Symonds Yat - which is famed for its phenomenal river scenery, woodland expanses and limestone cliffs.
There are many magnificent walking routes and outdoor pursuits close by. In addition, the Biblins swing bridge, which crosses the Wye, leads to the Forest of Dean - giving access to thousands of acres of hikes through the wilderness.
The two popular market towns of Ross-on-Wye and Monmouth are also close by. These both offer highly regarded secondary schools, supermarkets, a variety of restaurants, pubs, leisure facilities and independently owned shops.
Whitchurch is also ideally placed for those requiring good transport links. The A40 is nearby, and the eastbound road provides a direct route to Gloucester, Cheltenham and the Cotswolds. Meanwhile, motorists heading in the opposite direction can journey towards the M4 at Newport, giving access to Cardiff and London. In addition, the M50 motorway begins in Ross-on-Wye around seven miles away and this gives good access to the M5 motorway - leading to Birmingham to the north and Bristol to the south.

From Ross-on-Wye, follow the A40 towards Monmouth for approximately 5 miles then exit the dual carriageway following the road back over the A40 onto the A4137. Drive for approximately half a mile on the A4137 then turn left just before the small bridge. Continuer along the country lane for a few hundred yards and take the first turning left onto a small track and turn immediately right into Tuck Mill Farm.
