The cottage was lovely, absolutely everything we needed was in it. The views of the valley were stunning and it was so peaceful.

Rated by Mrs Turner reviewed on 10th July 2016

An absolutely gorgeous little cottage! Possibly the most peaceful place I have ever been it was a wonderful base for a restful break in this beautiful part of the world. We were made very welcome and the alpacas, sheep and dogs were very popular neighbours for our children! Thank you we loved it

The cottage is in a lovely area and very peaceful with wonderful views. I couldn't find a negative.

Rated by Mrs Burgess reviewed on 12th July 2015

A beautiful cottage in the heart of the Wye Valley, very tranquil, excellently appointed and an ideal place to de stress.

Rated by Miss Brown reviewed on 5th July 2015

Beautiful home from home cottage. Wood burning stove easy to use - very cosy property - perfect for chilly autumn evenings. Couldn't fault anything. Love this part of the country. So much to see and do - even in late Autumn! Sunset at at Tintern Abbey only beaten by watching the moon rise over the valley. Will definitely return and recommend :-)

The quality of the cottage and its furnishings were superb. Instantly relaxed and felt comfortable there.

Peaceful location with views, well appointed fittings in cottage.

Rated by Mrs Faragher reviewed on 1st September 2013

The accommodation was lovely and spotlessly clean. Well equipped.

Rated by Mrs reviewed on 5th July 2013

Ideal cosy cottage furnished to a high standard. The hosts were warm, welcoming and accommodating and left us a lovely welcome basket of local produce. The views from the cottage are stunning and there are direct walks from the property and surrounding areas. There is a wealth of information provided within the property which included Local areas of interest including Leominster which has a small market, and has numerous tea shops and Tudor buildings, Hay on the Wye which is a book town and well worth a visit. Monmouth with the Nelson Museum, and the Courts. Crafts centres including Taurus crafts and the Hop Pocket Village are also worth a mention. The area has lots of attractions for families and children and local pubs are accessible by car or a steep walk.

Very clean throughout.

Rated by Mrs White reviewed on 12th November 2012

The cottage was so quiet and peaceful, and beautifully appointed inside. We loved the fact that there was a dining space despite only one bedroom!

Rated by Mr Young reviewed on 26th July 2012

Ein wunderbarer Platz, wenn man es ruhig mag. Das Haus ist mit allem ausgestattet, was man braucht, sogar das Kochen macht Spaß. Einziger Nachteil ist eine etwas enge Wendeltreppe in die zweite Etage. Ausstattung, Ambiente, Sauberkeit und die Hilfsbereitschaft der Vermieter sind einfach super!

Rated by A FlipKey verified reviewer reviewed on 19th October 2011

We had a super stay here and did plenty of walking directly from the cottage. The cottage itself was very clean and well equipped but the shower-room sink made wet shaving rather difficult! Similarly the circular stairway did not allow much freedom, but all in all...super!

Rated by Deemax reviewed on 15th September 2011

When we arrived we were knocked out by the views and location. All needs are provided for and we received a lovely welcome from the owners. The cottage is a real home from home and perfectly placed for exploring Herefordshire, Gloucestershire and Monmouthshire, plus a path outside the property leading directly onto the Wye Valley Walk. Don't miss Litttle Dean Jail for a weird day out...and for a more tranquil adventure (but equally eerie!) Clearwell Caves is a must. This place is a real gem!

We were snowed in for some time - this feels like the best place to be when this happens. The place is cosy and well equipped.

Rated by Mr Osborne reviewed on 15th January 2011

A perfect holiday! The owners were very welcoming. The cottage was outstanding - 5*. Beautifully furnished and immaculately clean. Their taste in everything matched ours. 'Mill Race Pub' in the village serves excellent food. Symond Yat & River Cruises were fantastic. 'Three Choirs Vineyard' for wine tasting was superb.

Rated by Mr & Mrs Milner reviewed on 28th October 2010

The property was immaculate and kitted out to a very high standard. Very friendly owners and a perfect little get away.
