Your Four Legged Friend

Endless Dog Friendly Walking Trails

As well as enjoying the security of enclosed cottage lawns—perfect for letting your dog roam safely off the lead—the Forest of Dean offers some of the most beautiful dog-walking countryside you could wish for. 

From the moment you step out of the front door, a network of dog-friendly walks awaits. Wander through open fields up to The Kymin and take in the breathtaking views across to Monmouth, or explore the ancient woodland just a short stroll up the lane. This peaceful woodland, owned by the proprietors of Wren & Barn Owl, is available for guests to enjoy—simply contact the owners if you’d like to explore.
