Perfect little bolt hole with lovely countryside views. Ideally posiitoned for walks in the forest (5 minute walk from the door to the forest) and down to Symmonds Yat. Paul was a great host, very friendly and accommodating. Everything was super clean in the 'pigsty'. Definitely a funky place to stay. Would definitely go again!

MTB weekend in the Forest

Nice secure spot up a lane away from the road so happy leaving mountain bikes overnight.Small but really nice layout with great shower and kitchenette area. Bed was too small in both directions (I'm 6ft tall) and sofa bed very uncomfortable for my son, so none of us slept very well.Nice garden and dog friendly.Would definitely book again but only if the bed situation is improved
Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025
Response from VrboOwner on 12 February 2025
Thanks Matt. Sorry to hear about the bed and the sofa bed. These are the first negative comments in over two plus years on either option from many families staying over the 3 platforms we work with. Glad you liked the rest of the Funky Pigsty and the grounds. Thanks for the feedback.

Host profile image

Hi, I am a father of two who enjoys travelling the world with work and family. An activity very much enjoyed by the family.
Hobbies include travelling, sport, cooking and being run ragged by my 7 & 5 year olds.
I love the diversity of hosting and the people who come to explore the Wye Valley. I love sharing my local knowledge with them. Adventures include walks, hiking, biking or just chilling, we have it all.
I look forward to seeing you all soon.
Cheers Paul, Kerry, Max & Mollie.

Why they chose this property

he Wye Valley is an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty situated in a landscape straddling the border between England and Wales. The River Wye is the fourth-longest river in the United Kingdom.

Idyllic riverside towns and villages abound throughout, from the iconic Symonds Yat to the stunning Tintern, Ross-on-Wye and Redbrook, Llandogo and Monmouth. Three counties are covered here too - Gloucestershire, Herefordshire and Monmouthshire.

You can hire a canoe or kayak and see the sights from the river, walk the Offa's Dyke Path or Wye Valley Walk or enjoy a driving holiday taking in the views from the roads. The Wye Valley is the perfect place to choose for an exciting rural break with breathtaking views, country pubs, outdoor activities and characterful attractions. The only question is, where will you choose to begin your journey?

What makes this property unique

The Funky Pigsty is a brand new build, situated with fantasic views across the Wye Valley and on the door steps of many activities.
The self contained unit, is funky and a fantastic spot to chill or explore. Set up with all the mod cons, fibre wifi but hidden away for peace and quiet. We have it all, so come and explore:-)
