Old Station Tintern

Built as a Victorian country railway station, the Old Station, Tintern is a charming site to visit for a quiet relaxing day out or to start your walk in the beautiful Wye Valley.

The Old Station received the prestigious Green Flag Award in 2009 and retained the award in 2010 and 2011. These awards recognise and reward the best parks in the country. We have also recently won the accolade of "the UK's favourite park" in the Green Flag People's Choice Awards. 

The site features a riverside walk and meadows, children's play area, picnic site with barbeques, tearoom, souvenir shop, tourist information and a secluded basic camp site. The signal box houses changing exhibitions from local artists and crafts people. 

Our refurbished railway carriages house the Destination Wye Valley exhibition to help you explore the heritage of the Wye Valley. Download our site leaflet.

The Circle of Legends wood carvings feature local mythical or historic characters which form a series of trails throughout Monmouthshire

Carriages tea room at the Old Station is open for breakfast, light lunches, home baked cakes and afternoon teas as featured in the AA Afternoon Tea Guide.
