Tintern Old Station Car Park sits beside the River Wye at a former railway station turned heritage centre, with refurbished carriages housing local history displays and an N-gauge model railway. You can stroll a one mile riverside circular walk, visit the Circle of Legends, let children enjoy the play area, zip slide and miniature railway, then stop for tea and cake in the on-site tearoom. It suits families, walkers and anyone exploring the Wye Valley. The car park and grounds are open daily year-round, with the tea room and carriages open seasonally. Chepstow station is 4.3 miles away, and there are 38 bookable places to stay within 5 miles if you fancy making a stop of it.
