Set on the edge of the Forest of Dean, the village of Alvington is well served with a convenience store, petrol station, two village pubs, and a tearoom.
From here, you can easily access both the Forest of Dean and the beautiful Wye Valley, while for the more adventurous there is lots to do, including abseiling, kayaking, clay pigeon shooting, riding, and much more. The picturesque Welsh market town of Chepstow is just 6 miles away, where you can explore its famous castle.
