“Such beautiful accommodation for a large group.”

Fantastic communication with the owner in the lead-up to our visit. We had the happiest time in the lap of luxury.

“Lovely stay at Viaduct house.”

Great place to get the whole family together to celebrate special birthdays. A lovely touch was the hamper with provisions to start us off for the weekend - thank you. Only little criticism was the parking as we had lots of cars although a small car park not far away was available to use.
Ms Mcmorrow December 2019

“We had a brilliant stay at Viaduct House this Christmas everything was as described and the house was perfect.”

From the lovely welcome hamper to the beautiful Christmas decorations, very comfy and spacious bedrooms. Pizza oven was a big hit and Christmas Eve pizza party a huge success.
Mr Wicksteed December 2019

“The house has plenty of character with some lovely features such as the tiled front hall, box hedges and terraced garden, it was well heated and well equipped.”

The configuration of the 8 bedrooms suited our party well, beds were comfortable and linen was to a high standard. More side tables in the two sitting rooms would be an improvement, and having parking for just 1 car necessitating the parking of 4 others on the busy road caused us concern.
Ms O'shea November 2019

“Viaduct House was the venue for our annual pre-Christmas multi-generational family weekend.”

It suited us all so well that we booked it again for December 2020. Extremely comfortable and warm with a great kitchen diner and ample cooking facilities for our feasts. Plus a great location: very close to the beautiful Wye Valley path, and to Ross-on-Wye for independent shopping.
Mrs Wood November 2019

“The house was bigger than expected.”

Everyone, without exception, commented on the comfortable beds and quality bedding. The kitchen was very well equipped so we were missing nothing. Lovely, lovely setting - walk along the river to Symonds Yat without even getting I the car. Gavin was on hand for any questions. Would highly recommend Viaduct House.
Miss Hartwright November 2019

“What an amazing house!”

We loved everything about it.
Mrs Edmunds October 2019

“Best equipped house we have ever had for a holiday”
Mr Meikle June 2019

“Viaduct House is in an ideal location in the Wye Valley.”

Great open air facilities nearby, bike rental, canoeing, Go Ape, walks etc. Viaduct House provides very comfortable accommodation. The owners have gone out of their way to make sure that renters have everything they could need. Note that there are 13 worn stone steps from the gate to the front door mostly without a hand hold. Not a problem to the able but could be to anyone with mobility issues.
Miss Harris May 2019

“Beautiful house, every detail has been carefully thought out.”

Very high standard throughout, extremely comfortable beds and beautiful hamper on arrival. Thank you Gavin
Mrs Myers May 2019

“Amazing house, so good for larger groups to get together.”

The only draw back was no toilet on the ground floor.The Forest of Dean was stunning and we found plenty to do. We would consider this property again.
Mr Cousins April 2019

“WiFi was not reliable even on the same floor.”

We had to keep rebooting. The house was lovely, garden well kept, facilities all worked. Cleanliness not at top marks as oven smoked when using. Not clean, cutlery tray should be cleaned out and cobwebs on ceilings, damp mold in back rooms 3rd floor. These are all minor and generally better than other places I have stayed. Improvement on these few minor items would make this house win top marks. Everything else was excellent. Beds were best I have stayed on by far which made a big impact. Carpets and under furniture was clean, usually missed by other places I have stayed. Ample facilities, plates cups, fire wood, white goods all very good. Everyone enjoyed their stay.
Ms Firth April 2019

“Viaduct house was perfect for our large family (16).”

We loved the layout, the character and it had everything we needed in terms of facilities. We were lucky enough to enjoy some spring sun and as a result made full use of the terraced garden which was beautiful and a perfect space for children to play and adults to relax. We were blown away by the welcome hamper - those eggs and that cake! Yum! Communication with the owners was excellent and everything went according to plan. Thank you Viaduct House for a wonderful week.
Mrs Allen March 2019

“Very comfortable home for the weekend with everything we needed and more.”

Loved the fresh bread, scones and eggs as part of our welcome pack. The owners were great proactive contacting us to finalise arrangements and their welcome pack about the house very thorough, thanks for making it an easy stay!
Miss Lloyd-Williams March 2019

“A lovely location for a family get together.”

We really enjoyed our stay. Lovely spacious bedrooms with crisp clean sheets and duvets. A generous welcome basket of bread, butter, honey, fresh eggs, a three tiered gorgeous lemon cake and cookies! Plenty of milk and thoughtful essentials. The reception rooms and kitchen were of good size and had lovely wood burners with all you need to hand, to get a roaring fire going. Showers and bath had excellent water pressure and were enough for our party of 16. We made good use of the very convenient pub across the road, who had friendly staff and local recommendations. It is useful to know there are a number of steps up to the house, if travelling with people with mobility issues.There are beautiful and convenient walks by the river or up to where the old viaduct was. Conveniently placed for symonds yat, a short drive away. Great for dog owners. All that you need was supplied. Would definitely recommend.
Mr Wheeler March 2019

“Fantastic house which matched the photographs.”
Mr Hart March 2019

“Lovely house,within easy reach of lots of places.”

It was good after a long journey to have milk tea and some lovely homemade scones waiting for us when we arrived.Would highly recommend especially for lots of people.
Mrs Quigg February 2019

“This house is beautiful, comfortable & so well equipped.”

We were a (fairly dignified) group of hens aged 40-80 on a hen weekend & had a fabulous time. The beds are comfy with beautiful linen which was so appreciated (too many self catering places skip bed & bedlinen quality & it’s false economy). The huge kitchen with a table for 12 had everything we needed (& more) not to mention a gorgeous basket of fresh bread, scones, butter & jam which were devoured with gusto by us all. Thank you for providing a wonderful place for guests which I’d recommend in a heartbeat.
Mrs Wilson February 2019

“Very comfortable stay.”

Really well equipped and clean. Garden is beautiful and secure for dogs. No problems with the heating, toasty warm all the time, and the hot water just kept coming (very rare for these big houses in my experience) Only 2 slight negatives for us - there is only parking for 1 car. We had 7! However we did manage to find space on the road outside ok. And there are two lounges, neither one large enough to accommodate our group of 16 altogether, so we had to improvise a bit and be happy to sit on the floor. we had a wonderful week and would definitely recommend to others.
Dr Adams November 2018

“Lovely house and location, much better than expected welcome pack, all eagerly consumed by hungry mouths.”

Would definitely come back
Mrs Edgington October 2018

“We had a very enjoyable time with our family celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary, lovely house and location.”
Mr Lovell September 2018

“Viaduct House is a lovely property, it has charm, character and all you could want for an enjoyable stay.”

The house is as described and there is a wealth of natural beauty and interesting attractions and activities to satisfy all interests in close proximity. Despite this the surroundings are quiet and peaceful. 'Little touches' provided by the owners, such as a welcoming cake (for at least 16!), eggs and milk provide a 'warm welcome'. Highly recommended!
