If there’s one person who deserves a proper break, it’s Mum. And what better way to treat her than gathering the whole family together in a big, comfy self-catering house in the stunning Wye Valley?

This gorgeous Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is packed with peace, charm, and just enough adventure to keep everyone happy. Rolling hills, riverside strolls, ancient woodlands—it’s the kind of place that makes you breathe a little deeper and smile a little more.

A large self-catering house means you’ve got space for everyone—from toddlers to teens to Nan—with room to spread out, cook together, play games, and enjoy long, lazy mornings without any hotel-style rules. Mum gets her own room (ideally with an en-suite!), and there’s no need to cram round a tiny table or queue for the kettle.

There’s loads to do nearby, whether your crowd likes hiking, canoeing, exploring castles, or just finding the perfect cream tea. For the less adventurous, there are quaint towns like Ross-on-Wye and Monmouth to explore, plus peaceful gardens and riverside spots ideal for sitting with a book and a brew.

Foodies will love the local produce—perfect for big family meals or BBQs. Or, if no one fancies cooking, book a local chef or head to one of the many country pubs for a proper treat.

The best bit? It’s all about reconnecting. Laughing around the dinner table. Playing board games. Watching the kids run wild while Mum relaxes in the garden with a G&T and her slippers on.

And with dog-friendly options available, even the four-legged family members can join in the fun.

So if you’re thinking about a getaway that truly ticks all the boxes—comfort, connection, and countryside magic—the Wye Valley might just be the perfect choice. Especially for Mum.
