We took a short break at this holiday cottage, overlooking Symonds Yat. It is well located near Ross-on-Wye, just off the A40. The cottage was very well equipped and we didn't need to bring anything as the owner had thoughtfully sent us a brochure of the cottage setting out what equipment was available. Parking was plentiful and there was a double garage equipped with a number of bikes that we could use and table tennis and other games. The free WiFi was a bonus as mobile phone coverage in the area was very patchy.
We enjoyed our comfortable stay and would come again as the rental rate was very affordable.

Well equipped house in beautiful location.
Loved getting the hand pulled boat back from the inn across the river under star-light. Kids loved flashing torches to get the boat over to our side.

Have been to the Wye Valley a number of times and never tire of the area, and as to the cottage, what a superb location right next to the river wye, with wild life all around. The cottage is so well equipped even down to binoculars to observe the many different birds, the garage containing 5 bikes, 2 kayaks, pool table,etc what more could you want, Great ! holiday.

The cottage was in a very good location for walks etc. It was very clean and well equipped. Wifi was an added bonus as phone signal is poor. Loads of books/games/sky etc. Will aim to return later in the year for a romantic break.

Everything about our stay was perfect. The owner sent us an information brochure beforehand so we knew which things we did/didn't need to take. The house was lovely with amazing views of symmond's yat. Our little boy loved having a games room to play in, and I enjoyed relaxing evenings watching some of the many DVDs with the family. Everything you could possibly need was in the house, even plain flour - so I was able to make pancakes for breakfast! The area is stunning with so many things to do, we will definitely return.

The booking of the cottage was smooth and troublefree and an excellent information pack was sent from the owner in good time ahead of our stay .Directions to the cottage are accurate and easily followed. The cottage is clean and well equipped, though in comparison with our previous experiences we considered the kitchen to be a bit cluttered - too much equipment not normally associated with a holiday rental. We assumed access to the cottage could be gained via the garage ( a total assumption on our part) which was not the case and in consequence it is a "long haul" with luggage from the car, up the steps and along to the cottage entrance. Not a problem to us but could prove difficult for less able persons - perhaps a note to this effect could be included in the cottage description. The information available in the cottage advising of local beauty spots,recreational activities and food and drink locations is very good. My wife and I had a very relaxing, enjoyable stay in Symonds Yat.

On arrival my husband and I were delighted with the cottage and the views and location were just breathtaking!
We had our 6 month old twins with us which the cottage catered for exceptionally well.
The beds were extremely comfortable and the lounge was cosy for a family evening. We were able to cook our evening meals with ease as all utensils were available in the kichen.
The location was just perfect as we were just a short drive away from all tourist spots. Just a 5 minute walk from cottage we caught a boat for a tour along the river.
The only small thing I would change is the extremely sensitive smoke alarms which would go off even when ironing clothes ( however, we do understand that these are essential for a holiday letting) we just worried about disturbing te neighbours when ironing or cooking
THANKYOU for a beautiful stay, we will not hesitate to book again in the future.
