Nice quiet, clean property, the description needs updating to say that the restaurant has closed.

Surroundings were pretty. It was quiet and peaceful, the birds loved the feeders in front of the property. Good location for accessing the countryside by car, close to lots of canoeing and SUPing destinations.

The property is advertised as having a restaurant on site. The restaurant closed in August. It was very hard trying to get a taxi into Monmouth. The owners told us “you’ll be lucky”. The electricity meter was a bit of a pain.

מקום נעים בסביבה יפה קרוב לעיר קטנה וחביבה שיש בה כל מה שצריך. מומלץ!

בית אבן אפור שהיה בעבר מבנה חקלאי והוסב לשלוש יחידות ארוח בגדלים שונים. מבפנים קירות לבנים עם קורות עץ ומדרגות יוצרים בית אגדות לבירינטי. בכל יחידה מטבח מאובזר ושירותים. היחידות מרוהטות לפירטי פרטים בסיגנון אנגלי מסורתי . הבית ממוקם בתוך שטח פרטי רחב ידיים יחד עם הבית של ריטה, בעלת המקום, ועוד בית גדול המשמש לארוח אף הוא. יש חניה בשפע. גינה מטופחת. מכונת כביסה ומיבש ליד החניה של ריטה. על אותו שטח נמצאת מסעדה יפה שנסגרה. מקומיים מעידים שהיתה טובה. נראה שלא נעזבה סופית.

הנכס כולו ממוקם ליד כביש ללא שוליים, מרוחק כמה דקות נסיעה מהישוב, זה גורם לכך שאין אפשרות לצאת רגלית מהבית לשיטוט. השימוש בחשמל הוא בתשלום נפרד ע"י שלשול מטבעות של פאונד למונה. מה שדורש ממך להיות מצויד בכמויות גדולות של מטבעות (קנינו אצל ריטה) ולהיות ערני כדי למנוע ניתוק פתאומי.

Disappointing, especially given the price which was £100 more each than we paid last year.

Location was very good. The beds were comfortable with quality, clean linen.

The cottages are for sale, we were the only people staying there and it all needed lots of TLC. The cottage was full of cobwebs, there was no welcome pack, not even a pint of milk! We were only told on arrival that electricity had to be paid for via a meter which gobbled pound coins at an alarming rate. I believe this should be stated on the site information so we could be prepared. The weather was unseasonably damp and cold but the night store heaters were switched off so we asked for wood for the log burner but there wasn't any available - even the heated towel rail didn't work! We picked this property especially for it's on site restaurant as my sister is disabled and it meant we wouldn't have to go out at night to eat so we were particularly disappointed that the restaurant was closed for three of our four nights there.

Comfy and cosy cottages made family celebration very enjoyable and comfortable.

The rooms were cosy and with comfy seating , large dining table and decent kitchen area. lots of crockery and facilities made catering for family party easy.

The lack of information regarding the property and some facilities listed were communal and not in the property and this was not clear from listed info. However the staff were quick to respond to our queries. pre- payment meter for Electrics seems mean.

Really good place all round

The setting, lovley gardens the thoughtfully designed comfortable atmospheric rooms. The friendly owners

The only thing was I could not get the wifi to work, I did not mention it to the owners and to be honest I could survive without it anyway

Comfortable stay overall

The ambience and the period look. Also the location. The fireplace was really a big plus and a much needed facility. We had everything we needed for the stay

The heating system could be upgraded. The electricity system is a bit old with coin based operation which you need to pay. The bathroom could do with an exhaust fan.

A perfect location and facility for our family birthday celebration

The cottage was warm and the host was most informative and welcoming. Having got a little lost due to misreading the sat nav, and having called for help, the host came out on a cold Jan night to direct us into her driveway! We were celebrating a family 60th birthday and having an open plan kitchen, dining area and lounge with wood burner, it was perfect to have everyone together whatever we were doing. Location was great for Monmouth and the River Wye and had we been staying longer than a weekend, there would have been plenty to see and walks to take in the immediate area.

None at all.

Nice place but very rude owner

Cottages was nice but....

On arrival we were greated by the lady whom runs the cottages and wasn't very welcoming. We were shown to the cottage which freezing cold at 3pm, there was no heating and would only come on again in the early hours of the morning. We were then shown the pre paid electric meter which was unexpected, we asked about putting the heating on and said nothing could be done about it and just have to wait till the morning. We got given extra electric heaters which cost us extra to heat up the rest of the cottage and rooms before having been told we need to make our way to the petrol station to buy wood for the fireplace as the property wasn't able to provide (which would have cost a extra £10 per a basket) any as it was already starting to get cold. The following day we tried speaking with the owner telling her about our issues with the cold cottage (even with the heating coming on in the morning) we were then told again the we need to go buy wood from the petrol station and then told it was our own fault for going to stay there the time that we did, which was the only time we could as we work in the industry and is the quieter time. We book to stay 4 nights (at a cost of £640) and only ended up staying 1 of the 4 nights, after the rudeness of the owner and been told we were wrong and didn't know what we are talking about we decided to pack up our things and leave. When I asked for a invoice, the look on her face was as if she couldn't believe I'm asking for one with her eyes been rolled at me to be told they don't give invoices and when asked only to be told, they don't do such things. The owner wasn't happy to help in any way or even offer some kind of compensation to make us stay and try enjoy the property. It's a shame they don't understand the problems they have or try changing there ways,the cottages are nice but it's the owner who's bringing it down.

Very nice cottage with great access to lots of tourist attractions in the Forest of Dean etc.

No freezer (just ice box in fridge) a slight nuisance. Lucky we had plenty of change for the electricity meter.

Nice stay, lovely area but had its inconveniences, slot meter & Wi-Fi

Lovely characterful rooms.

Wi-Fi intermittent service - about 2 hours over 3 days. Very inconvenient electricity slot meter, had no cash on arrival and had to make special trip out for cash withdrawal, then change it for the correct coinage before we could relax. I would rather spend a further £20 on rent than have to put-up with feeding a slot meter!

Really enjoyed it. Great price.

It was very pretty. Lovely grounds. Gorgeous meadow out back. Traditional cottages, decor and features. Was tidy, but could have done with a better clean, especially in Covid. But overall very nice. Would re visit. Need a car though.

Lovely weekend, great views, lovely meadow and courtyard.

Lovely area. Great views at the back of the property. Pretty courtyard area. Our girls loved playing in the meadow.

You need a car to get around, but we knew that in advance. The cottages/grounds were lovely, but would have liked a more thorough clean. It was clean and tidy generally, but I did have to hoover up some dead flies and wasps, and clean some of the pans before we used them. The hoover didn't work very well, I would have been happy to use it otherwise. Only a small suggestion.
