The Local Area
Situated in the village of Garway and still less than a mile from the local pub, Oldfield Forge is the perfect place to relax and take in the local area by foot or bike.
The area also has a historical connection to the Knights Templar, bringing visitors to the area from all over the country. The wild ponies on Garway Hill are not to be missed, as well as the surrounding hills of the Black Mountains and the Monnow Valley.
We are conveniently situated:
