The Royal Lodge at Symonds Yat East has an idyllic
setting in the heart of the Wye Valley in an area of
outstanding natural beauty where the
River Wye cuts a swathe through a wooded gorge on
the edge of the spectacular Royal Forest of Dean.
The hotel is nestled just below Symonds Yat Rock and
stands exclusively in grounds of almost 5 acres
overlooking the river. It has terraced gardens of
magnolia trees and a well established wisteria.
The
Royal was originally built in 1876 as a Royal hunting
lodge and was converted to a hotel in the 1920's.
The Royal
Lodge is place to spend a relaxing
break in a beautiful setting. It is in close
proximity to numerous outdoor activities such as canoeing,
abseiling, caving, kayaking, golf, cycling,
walking and horse-riding and now Helicopter
Tours. The hotel is also
well situated to explore the Wye Valley,
Brecon Beacons, Black Mountains and the
South Wales coast.
