About Tudor Farmhouse Hotel

Tudor Farmhouse Hotel occupies a genuinely old building in the village of Clearwell, a short drive from Tintern and the lower Wye Valley gorge. The core of the hotel dates back to the 13th century, and much of that history survives in exposed stonework, ancient beams and the odd crooked doorway that boutique conversions elsewhere can only imitate.

The twenty bedrooms and suites are spread across the main farmhouse and a scatter of converted outbuildings, and no two are quite alike; several have roll-top baths and monsoon showers tucked into unlikely corners of the old structure. The kitchen has built a strong reputation for locally sourced, seasonal cooking, holding an AA Rosette for its efforts, and dinner-inclusive stays are a popular way to book.

Clearwell itself sits within easy reach of Puzzlewood, Tintern Abbey and the Wye Valley's canoeing centres at Symonds Yat, making the hotel a workable base for exploring both the Forest of Dean and the gorge without excessive driving.

What a truly beautiful place the owners and staff have created. ❤️ We had the privilege of spending a few nights in this peaceful oasis of tranquillity and space, together with our little dog. The cottages and the gardens are simply stunning: beautifully designed and impeccably maintained. The food is absolutely exceptional. And to the singing chef: we sincerely hope you keep singing, as it added such a wonderful extra dimension to our dinners. :-) Finally, to the staff: thank you for looking after us so incredibly well and making us feel so welcome. We are deeply grateful and can’t wait to come back. See you again soon!

I booked a two night stay as a surprise for my husband and I can honestly say this was the perfect place! The room ( No 9) was comfortable with all the amenities you could possibly need and the monsoon shower was incredible! The staff were really helpful and accommodating and the service was fabulous. We booked into the restaurant on our first night and the food was delicious. I would go so far as saying it was the best food we’d tasted in ages and the menu was varied with something for everyone. This is also true of the breakfast which was also really enjoyable and lots to choose from. We loved it so much that I’ve booked us another stay in November, just slightly longer this time. Thank you to everyone for making us feel so welcome.

An incredible overnight stay at the Tudor Farmhouse! Staff were extremely polite and accommodating allowing us to access rooms earlier than expected which was a huge help for my friends and I, the rooms were immaculately cleaned and so comfortable to stay in. Breakfast was the main highlight with the farmhouse sourcing produce locally farmed where possible creating a unique dining experience with excellent food and drink. I very much plan to return in the future so I can explore more of The Forest of Dean and can't think of anywhere else I would rather stay!

We love The Tudor Farmhouse Hotel. Harrie and the rest of her staff are helpful and polite. The rooms and the hotel's decour are tasteful and thoughtful with great attention to detail. The food is simply stunning. Chef Arran and his team produce the highest quality fine dining. The food is simply outstanding, exceptional and delicious. The location is quiet and peaceful, and we look forward to returning very soon.
