Donโt beat yourself up if you somehow got hooked on Netflixโs teen drama Sex Education.
We dabbled in the first episode only to find ourselves a full season down, wondering where the time had gone.
Weโre also asking ourselves how the hell its (somehow) always sunny in West Country Britain โ and why the hell does the high school look like itโs straight out of the San Fransisco Bay Area? Thatโs a question for another time.
Shot on location in various parts of the Welsh-English border, the popular television show from the streaming service just dropped its second season. Specifically, the areas around the Wye Valley and Newport region offer a lush, idyllic playground for the protagonist, Otis, and his mates to play out their drama-fuelled high-school world.
And while you unfortunately wonโt be sipping coffee opposite Gillian Anderson (who plays Otisโ sex therapist mother), you will, in fact, be able to rent out the huge house from the show for you and your mates this English summer.

Situated on the hillside above the Rye river in Herefordshire, the โChalet at Symonds Yatโ is a 100-year-old Norwegian wooden house that was used for the exterior shots during filming, as well as the porch scenes between Otis and his mum.
Boasting five bedrooms that sleep 10 people, the house is โperfectly placed as a base for the adventurous looking for an energetic holiday exploring the stunning Wye Valley and Forest of Dean.โ The latter, coincidentally, was also used as a location for various Harry Potter films.
In more important news, however, the pub at the bottom of the valley, The Saracens Head Inn, is apparently bloody fantastic.
The house is undergoing maintenance at present, with the owner confirming to LadBible that he hopes itโll be available to rent by Easter. Check out thechaletsymondsyat.com for more information.
