Welcome to the Rising Sun in Woodcroft, a village pub set in the countryside on the outskirts of Chepstow. Nestled between the Rivers Wye and Severn. The pub is less than 100 yards from Offa’s Dyke path and the climbing area of Wintour’s Leap. Across the fields is the Wye Valley Greenway cycle path and not far from the Devils Pulpit looking over Tintern.
We are a local, community owned pub and winner of the CAMRA Pub Saving Award for 2023. We serve delicious locally sourced food, a superb selection of alcoholic, non-alcohol drinks and coffees in a beautifully restored pub with a fabulous garden.
We hope to see you soon with a warm welcome.
