This CL is about 1000 ft above sea level close to the top of a North facing slope that falls away sharply to give splendid and distant views of the countryside West of Monmouth and beyond.  A Trig Point in a field directly opposite the CL on the other side of the road has a 360 degree view.  Other attractions of the site are lovely countryside, peace and quiet, close proximity to the Wye Valley between Chepstow and Monmouth which includes Tintern and the friendly owner who will drive you to the pub!  The site is an oblong strip of land running along and sloping away from the road, the road being slightly higher than the site.  Access is through a small stable yard, that has all the trappings of a working farm, and a track running parallel to the road in front of the pitches.  Attempts have been made to level the track and first four pitches, which have been dressed with scalping that is overgrown particularly on the pitches.  The grass could have done with a trim but that may have been due to the time of year.  When we stayed the pitch closest to the farm was occupied by a stored caravan and motorised horse box.  It might be difficult to get a caravan onto the furthest pitch because the track doesn't go far enough and there is no levelling.  All the pitches back onto the road and are separated from it by a hedge which when we visited had been trimmed and had lost most of its leaves.  Very little traffic used the road but when it did it was noticeable.  Our neighbour reported that rain water running off the road made the site wet and slippery and they had difficulty in siting their caravan.  When we arrived the ground was damp but our 4x4 and mover were able to cope and levelling our 7.25m caravan was not a problem.  The site's altitude ensures good mobile phone and TV reception but it also gave us fog which again could have been a time of year thing. The adjoining fields which drop away steeply from the site had horses on them.  There is a horse exercise area 150 yards along the road that is visible from the site.  The nearest supermarkets and other amenities are in the attractive towns of Chepstow and Monmouth which are reached by car in 20 and 25 minutes respectively.  There is no obvious walking from the site, other than along the road, and footpaths and roads further afield will involve a descent and climb!  Similarly, cycling from the site will only suit the energetic.  A 1:25,000 Ordnance Survey OL14 map is a good purchase as it covers the CL, Wye Valley and Forest of Dean beyond that.
