Laura
The cottage is lovely and bigger than it looks, and in a quiet location, opposite a beautiful church. It was clean and fairly well equipped. It was easy to find, with only one member of the party ending up at the old peoples home! Which you don't know is there once at the cottage. Parking was great - we left a couple of cars just down the lane, and two on the drive. The area is fabulous; we walked form the house up to the hill fort, then down to Symonds Yat, across the ferry and to the Saracens Head. We ate in both the Saracens Head and the Old Ferrie Inn; both were fabulous, but the Ferrie had the edge. The only slight negatives were a few of the mugs were chipped, which was a shame and one of the sofas seems to have no seat cushions, so was a bit uncomfortable. The mugs would be an easy win. I would recommend the cottage and the area.

The lack of a drainer to hold the washed pots was not good, but that is the only negative I can think off. Everything you could want was there in the kitchen, had a good time.
