Wonderful views and scenery
We had a lovely stay in The Cot over the Easter weekend. We enjoyed a couple of great walks as recommended in the cottage guide, and a very good meal in The Olde Ferrie. The cottage is simple, compact but very comfortable and in a wonderful setting. The owners were very helpful and communicative - and gave very helpful advice about access to the house.

Cosy, quiet cottage, great views
We had a fantastic time with active days and relaxing evenings. The walk to the pub is exciting! The owners made our stay just perfect and made themselves available if we had any questions or problems. The access to the property is a little tricky but this makes the place even more exciting in our opinion. We plan to visit again!

A beautiful property in a stunning location. Being dog friendly as well made this even more desirable. The property is approached by a steep pathway and steps as the owner points out, but you'll go back fitter for it . Some wonderful walks, nearby. The owners have kindly produced some step by step guides to places of local areas of interest which we found really useful. There a lovely local pub The Wye Knot just down the hill... It's a very interesting walk back up the path after a few drinks of the local ale. We wouldn't hesitate in recommending the cottage and would love to go back for longer. Forgot to add the skies at night are a star gazers delight. My son in law and I spent most evenings spotting a range of constellations above the cottage absolutely amazing.

Enjoyed our stay. The house had everything we needed. In a peaceful spot with fabulous views out from the veranda. Easy to travel to local towns and places of interest. Enjoyed the circular walk from Symonds Yat returning by the ferry. All helped by a spell of hot weather.

Beautiful location, wonderful stay
Everything was awesome. The property was immaculately clean and welcoming. It was evident that a lot of effort went into making the stay easy and comfortable. The highlight was all the nature, animals and bugs we saw. One evening we watched a roe deer on the grounds. Thank you for a lovely stay
