Longhope Bakery

If you are not here from 9-2 try the general store/post office just down the street for snacks and refreshments. Good variety of stock at fair prices and friendly to boot.

Forest Bakehouse Longhope

Highlight • Cafe

Yummy, yummy, yummy I've got love in my tummy.... and a few pastries and some coffee too. Perfectly placed for a stop if you're riding from Gloucester and out to the Forest of Dean or the Brecon Beacons. Check opening times before you set off though as it's not open every day. And it's best in sunny weather so you can sit on the benches outside!

May Hill Summit

Highlight • Summit

Distinct and visible for miles around, May Hill has a little hat of trees on top. A Marilyn, it lies just north of the Forest of Dean in Gloucestershire and two named trails cross it: the Gloucestershire Way and the Wysis Way. Enjoy the far-reaching views from the summit towards the Welsh border and over the River Severn.
