Wye Nest

Wye Nest is a converted coachhouse on the outskirts of Ballingham, with everything on a single floor. You walk into an open plan space that combines kitchen, dining and living areas, the whole thing oriented toward the view: bi-fold doors frame the Wye Valley, and the bedroom has French doors to its own Juliet balcony overlooking the same prospect. The kitchen is properly equipped for self-catering, with an electric oven, induction hob, dishwasher and washing machine. The living area has a sofa bed and Smart TV. The bedroom is a double, and there's a shower room with heated towel rail. Everything you need for a stay is supplied—electricity, heating, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included.

Outside, a decked area has a gas barbecue and space to sit with a view across the valley. There is private parking for two cars on site. The setting suits anyone wanting to explore the Wye Valley on foot or by bike; the river itself is good for canoeing and paddleboarding. The village is quiet, with a church and hall, and a country pub and restaurant less than 2 miles away in Carey. No smoking indoors.
