If you've not yet discovered the enchanting Symonds Yat, buckle up because you're in for a treat! Nestled in the heart of the Forest of Dean, this picturesque locale promises both serene nature escapes and adrenaline-packed adventures (and yes, you do recognise that house!).

First, a toast! And what better place for that than the 'Ye Old Ferrie Inn'? This beautiful riverside pub is more than just a watering hole; it's a living page from history. Imagine sipping a cold pint in the very same spot where travellers have been doing so since 1473! Yes, you read that right. The Inn has been standing proud on the banks of the River Wye for over 500 years, offering visitors both sustenance and stories. With its timbered beams and stone walls, it feels like stepping into a time capsule. Yet, the views of the river offer a timeless serenity.

Now, speaking of the River Wye, if lounging in a historic pub isn't your speed, perhaps paddle boarding on this majestic river is. The calm, pristine waters of the Wye are a haven for paddle boarders, both novices and pros. The rhythmic splash of your paddle, the mirror-like reflection of the sky on the water, and the surrounding greenery form an experience that’s almost therapeutic.

OK, even dogs can enjoy it!

But don't stop there! The river calls to all sorts of sports enthusiasts. Whether you're into kayaking, canoeing, or just fancy a swim, Symonds Yat has you covered. The intertwining of history with modern-day adventures makes this a place where everyone, from your history-buff granddad to your thrill-seeking cousin, can find their niche.
