“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.

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

Very high standard throughout, extremely comfortable beds and beautiful hamper on arrival. Thank you Gavin
Ms Nolan 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.

“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!
Mrs Hegde September 2018

“We had a great time in this beautiful cottage for a 40th birthday with 4 families.”

The facilities were great. We enjoyed the barbecue and the garden. Lovely dining kitchen with huge table that we could all fit around. Lots to do nearby. Delicious pastries and milk were left for us which was a lovely touch. The only thing that would have made it better would have been a slightly later check out time as Sunday morning felt quite rushed to get 16 people breakfast, packed and cleaning up by 10am.
Ms Chadwick June 2018

“Lovely house with nice outdoor facilities.”

Kitchen had everything we needed. There was a problem, however, with the fire alarm on the first floor going off three times in the night on Saturday without any obvious reason, which was very tiresome.
Mrs Wood June 2018

“The perfect place to celebrate a special family birthday!”

Gorgeous house in a beautiful setting. Around a 15 minute drive to Symonds Yat which is stunning! House easily fit 16 adults, great bedrooms and bathrooms. BBQ was used with the good weather!
Mr Walley April 2018

“Excellent house with very comfortable beds and nice towels.”

Lovely area.
Mrs Norrie April 2018

“This is a lovely old house with a lot of character and has been refurbished to a very high standard.”

Lots of room for 10 adults, 4 children and 2 dogs. A welcome hamper was greatly appreciated, including a sumptuous lemon drizzle cake. We would recommend this property though for anyone with mobility issues, there are a few steps up to the front door.
Mr Rooker March 2018

“Fantastic place, really comfortable beds and great welcome basket!”
Ms Sheppard December 2017

“We arrived to find a nice welcome hamper!”

! Also there was a very tasty Coconut cake waiting for us on arrival!! The owners had done a good job on decorating the house for Christmas!! The house overall had a nice welcoming feeling!! Also as we had snow while we were away and had a power cut the owners responded quickly to our concers that the boiler had gone out!! Overall very helpful!!!
Miss Norrington November 2017

“It was a great property, not often you can find a large house all with decent bedrooms and big, really comfortable beds and is good for kids too.”

It was a really easy process to book and the owners were lovely and very helpful.
