About The Saracens Head Inn

The River Wye runs right past the door here, and The Saracens Head Inn makes the most of it with a garden and outdoor seating looking over the water. Symonds Yat East itself is a quiet riverside spot within reach of Symonds Yat Rock and Goodrich Castle, with wooded hills and walking trails rising up around the village.

Rooms come with en-suite bathrooms, air conditioning and free WiFi, and there's a bar and restaurant on site serving breakfast, packed lunches and kids' meals for those not wanting to venture far. A picnic area and garden add extra space to sit outside, while 24 hour reception and luggage storage keep things straightforward for arrivals and departures. Free on-site parking is provided, useful given the inn's rural setting.

Beyond the grounds, the surrounding area suits an active stay, with fishing, cycling, horse riding and watersports all nearby, plus golf and walking country within easy reach. Pubs and restaurants in the village add further options for evenings out, making the inn a practical base for exploring the Wye Valley.
