The cottage is positioned, up on a hill, near the village of Ewyas Harold. It takes approximately 10 mins by car. The village had two pubs, a fish and chip shop, a village shop, a family butchers shop, children playground and a play cafe. The other nearby village of Longtown also has a good pub & village shop. Ewyas Harold Common is a short distance away, ideal for walking and wildlife spotting. We have several fun on site activities, Paintball (Senior & Junior), Laserclayz and Viking Games (including archery, axe throwing and Nordic Games) all great group activities, please ask us for details. We have groups taking part in paintball on weekends, if a few of you are keen to play we can add you to a group (start times usually 10 or 1.30pm). Laserclayz can be run for groups of 2-30 players. A great fun activity based on the traditional sport of Clay Pigeon Shooting but without the violent kick back, noise and danger!! The Viking Games - Archery, Axe Throwing and Nordic Games. Try one or book a package to try all three! We run all the activities ourselves so we can tailor make them for you!! Activities further afield include, canoeing, hill walking, quad biking, llama trekking, ice cream farm with zip wire etc. There is good access to the Black Mountains and the Offa's Dyke path . We love the walk up the nearby Cats Back (also known as The Black Hill).
