An inspiring setting for community, nature and history.

The village of Tintern is the stunning home to the spectacular ruins of a world famous Cistercian abbey and to an ancient industrial heritage. Nestled quietly in the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, it is a wonderful place in which to live, to raise families and to enjoy the spirit of community.

Tintern also warmly welcomes the many visitors who pass this way each year, seeking the renewal that comes from a short time spent in its uplifting and historic landscape.
