Calcott Annexe

A lovely peaceful location ideal for many of the local attractions highly recommended and would definitely book again.

A couple of negatives that can be easily fixed. A ice box in the fridge a broom and a yard broom would be ideal.

Small annex just enough for 2 people and a small dog, there was no where for our dog to go first thing in the morning except the patio which is very small I asked if she could go out where the car was parked but she was not allowed, something about the property owner was not insured.

We had to ask for a pair of scissors & tin opener which arrived the next day. The only big problem was there was no ice compartment in the fridge and I bought with me frozen fish for our dog which thawed quite quickly and could not be used,

You could not wish for a nicer lady than Connie she was waiting at the annex when we arrived to welcom us , unfortunately we found the accommodation too small and in our opinion is in need of some maintainence and refurbishment we enjoyed our stay there but it could have been better.

our stay at calcott annexe was wonderful The owner had tried to provide everything you could need The cottage was warm and comfortable and the views are amazing You are only minutes from Ross and Monmouth The only reason I have not given this property 5 stars is that the lighting is too dull for me to read by

Calcott Annexe is very well equipped cottage ,a home from home.

It is in a beautiful location The owner is a lovely lady, very caring and makes you feel very welcome There is plenty to do and see not far away. We enjoyed our stay there and would definitely return

I had a wonderful stay at Calcott annex and it was just right for myself and my 2 little dogs.

We had a warm welcome from Connie, who very kindly left some mince pies, milk, bread and lovely eggs for us. The living room and bedroom were very comfortable and it was great for the dogs to be able to get out very easily into the little garden. The views from the annex were lovely and it is a beautiful part of the country. I will certainly recommend others staying here and will in the future stay again.

Connie was very nice, and left a small welcome pack, but the reality of the property hit home soon after she left.

We had to clean the whole property even the patio had to be cleaned. don’t think it had been maintained for years. The crockery, pans and cooker had not been cleaned. There were a lot of cobwebs and woodlice in the property. The bathroom had a permanent smell of damp. The property could be made nice if brought upto Sykes expected standard. Was very disappointed and left early. Suggest a site visit is well overdue.

It was a lovely place to use as a base to explore the beautiful Ross on Wye area.

There was a small problem with woodlice in the conservatory and the annex could do with a vacuum cleaner to help keep the place tidy. Connie was a delightful host and extremely helpful.

The best holiday I’ve had with Sykes.

So peaceful and secluded.

When I arrived I needed to put shopping in the fridge and some frozen items in the top freezer part but the door had been left open and the fridge had filled with ice so I had to defrost it.

A good location and views. The property needs a good deep clean. The bathroom was very smelly and damp. Black mould and the floor was unclean. The small outside court yard was filthy and full of leaves in corners. However, I did enjoy my stay despite this.

Connie is a warm welcoming hostess.

The annexe is well heated, comfortable and welcoming. A great location.

Connie is the perfect hostess - friendly and helpful and just round the corner if you need her, but still the annexe felt very private and was a very good space to baseyself cto explore the area while working from “home” in the conservatory - good Wi-Fi amazing dog walks and a very successful enjoyable trip.

Thank you

Connie was the perfect host, just like her property.

Thanks again for everything.

In general it was okay, the shower floor needs a good clean, my wife had to clean mildew off the floor, there were no bin liners in any of the bins.

The Annexe was amazing, Connie and Hollie ( the little doggy) were lovely.

I would definitely rebook next year if possible . Thank you Connie.

A warm welcome.

A very comfortable property. The bonus is the sun room. The weather was VERY wet, however this was a great space for relaxing to read a book, do a jigsaw, plan a day out. Very convenient for Ross on Wye, Hereford, Monmouth Forest of Dean. Plan to book again

The Annexe was beautiful.

We had a very comfortable and relaxing stay. The cleanliness was 10/10! Our Labrador Nala, also gives the Annexe a 5 Paw review! Thank you so much for a wonderful stay Connie & Hollie. We already can't wait to come back!

Fantastic location just what we needed for a walking break

What a lovely cottage and owner, (Connie) we had the best ever welcome pack ever with fresh laid chicken eggs, cake, butter sugar,tea, milk etc - Connie couldn't be more helpful and above all welcoming - what a beautiful area the Wye Valley we also enjoyed our evenings sitting in the garden patio area with a drink looking at the fantastic view across the fields even saw the wild deer one day - looking forward to returning next year - thanks Connie

We loved our weeks stay in this lovely Annexe, Connie made us feel so welcome and the welcome pack was so thoughtful.

We would love to go back there one day. The annexe has everything you need and so comfortable.

Connie is a wonderful host who does everything to make your stay enjoyable.

The welcome pack on arrival was extremely welcome. The accommodation was comfortable and one of the cleanest we have stayed in. Beautiful views from the conservatory and a great place to relax. The private patio garden was perfect for our small dog. Will hopefully return to enjoy the tranquility another time.

A cosy and well appointed cottage.

Central for getting to many places in the area. Wonderful views from the conservatory and patio. Connie, the owner, very helpful and friendly. Well recommended. I shall return!

Another lovely stay at Calcott Annexe.

The cottage is comfortable and Connie is a very friendly and attentive host. The welcome pack is very generous. Everything you would need is provided and the surroundings are beautiful. The cottage is a great base to explore the Wye Valley and south west Wales being only a couple of miles from the Welsh border. Definitely a place we would return to if we chose to visit the area again.

This was our second visit to Calcott annex and it was just as enjoyable as the first.

The facilities at Calcott were very good especially the welcome pack provided by Connie (our host). lots of information about local facilities available near to Whitchuch and Connie's knowledge of when to go to various places is second to none. Overall, a very enjoyable visit.

Lovely place to stay, beautiful views and easy access to walks with a dog.

Calcott Annexe is clean, warm & comfortable with a good welcome pack.

Connie is caring, thoughtful & a wonderful host. Symonds Yat West is in walking distance, through Whitchurch, past the Hotel, Cafe, Butterfly Zoo, Maze & Church. There is a convenience shop in a nearby garage. Also, easy road access to visit Ross-on-Wye, Monmouth & surrounding areas.

Well Positioned for the area.

Owner very friendly and helpful. Parking was good.

Lovely property, we were there for a week when the temperature did not rise above zero, but property was warm the whole time.

The owner, Connie, couldn't have been more helpful, even ringing local garages when we had car problems to find one that could do repairs soonestWout recommend this property too any body.

We had a lovely stay here with our baby.

Wonderful views from the patio which was great to unwind each day. There is a small shop within walking distance as is the nearby village. It's also very close to Symonds Yat and other places of interest. Connie was very responsive and helpful, we would definitely stay again!

Calcott Annexe is a very comfortable and spacious property for two.

It is ideally placed to visit The Forest of Dean and the market towns of Ross, Monmouth and Abergavenny. The cottage is warm and the conservatory is a wonderful place to enjoy the lovely views to the rear of the property. Connie is a very friendly host and the welcome pack is extremely generous. Everything you could need is provided and I would have no hesitation in returning here.

Very enjoyable few days .

Cottage Very comfortable and well equipped and private with amazing views from conservatory and patio. Connie extremely helpful and on hand if needed. Position very convenient for all tourist attractions.

The cottage is beautiful facilities good nice and clean.

Very comfortable with everything needed supplied even milk and eggs Nice patio area with soft comfortable seeting Wet room nice good shower Connie nice and friendly

We had a very nice week at Calcott.

Connie the owner was very welcoming and helpful. The welcome pack was excellent and much appriaciated. Connie's two dogs were lovely and became firm friends. There are also plenty of places to visit.

The cottage was exactly as expected.

The host (Connie) was extremely helpful and welcoming. She could not do enough for us and helped make our stay so much more enjoyable. Even to the point of making sure that we had enough information about local events that we could go to. We always ask the question 'would we go back again ' and in this case, the answer was a resounding YES.

We spent a very enjoyable week at Calcott Annex.

The cottage was extremely comfortable and very well equipped. The property description was very accurate . The owner Connie was very welcoming and helpful. Would have no hesitation in returning. PS the weather was good as well.

Lovely comfortable cottage, Connie the owner made us feel so welcome, leaving a very practical welcome pack, felt like we had known her for years.

Would highly recommend a visit here especially being in the middle of Monmouth & Ross on Wye so easy to get to any place.

Lovely wecome from Connie.

Cottage was very comfortable and had everything you need for a peaceful break. Perfect area for walkers.

Had a lovely welcome and welcome pck.

Had a lovely time. Wonderful annexe it was perfect, Wonderful views, very cosy. Connie is very helpful.

Very comfortable and clean property, very welcome starter pack, very welcoming and most informative owner.

My lack of modern tech communication skills (mobile phone & texting) left me at a bit of a disadvantage at first. but the holiday overall was very good. Thank you Connie.

Connie made us very welcome and we were most comfortable.

Calcott Annexe is a great little bolt hole for exploring a fascinating area.

It is very well located with easy access to the Forest of Dean, the Wye valley and the Black Mountains, as well as Monmouth and Ross on Wye. The property is compact and cosy and equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. The views are wonderful and the host Connie made us feel most welcome and was on hand if we needed anything. We will be back!

Lovely property, clean warm and comfortable.

Very warm welcome from Connie, the owner and lovely thought of a provisiob of milk tea coffee butter bread and scones, to keep you going until you shopped. The conservatory is lovely and means in a one bed house there's loads of space and options of where to sit. The enclosed patio area was ideal for our dog, and meant we could relax and just let him roam around the house and patio to his hearts content

No everything was fine

The only directions given were "Follow your satnav".

Not much help for those of us who do not have one! Have never had that experience with you before and hope not to have it again.

Absolutely lovely place to stay So peaceful and relaxing Connie the owner was so helpful and friendly Convenient for access to all of Wye valleys lovely villages and towns Would definitely stay again

The owner Connie made our stay fantastic.

The annexe was perfect for our needs and is in the perfect place for all that we wanted to do. It is so close such beautiful places that we had not ventured towards before. Absolutely recommend the area and the annexe as a base.

The owner was very welcoming and helpful , it gave an air of assurance in these stressful "getting back to normal" times.

The cottage is cosy and comfortable in a beautiful location, with lovely views over a valley. We spent happy times over a coffee watching the amazing bird life (and saw birds of prey high up over the hills). The weather wasn't good to us during our stay but the accommodation was a welcoming place to come back to. We agree with a previous reviewer's comments , that if you are used to a firmer mattress , you notice a difference, but that is a minor point. Overall a lovely , welcoming place to retreat to for a break and an excellent base for visiting and exploring the surrounding area.

Location is good base for exploring, easy access to Wye valley, Monmouthshire, Herefordshire etc.

Nice view up the hill, spotted deer, Buzzards, Kites etc. Only reason to mark comfort down is being portly I like a hardish mattress but fully understand everyones tastes on that is different.

connie was fab made us very welcome.

great location to get around.there was two pet dogs they were adorable.we will be going again great time and place.

Calcott annexe is a lovely comfortable cottage with lovely views.

Connie the owner is very helpful. This is a great base for exploring beautiful old market towns and countryside

Beautiful little cottage, conveniently situated for the Forest of Dean but also the Black Mountains in Wales.

Tintern Abbey is a must and only about 25 minute drive. Connie has thought of everything in the cottage and is a lovely host. Thank you for a most wonderful week of walking and site seeing. Will definitely be back.

We booked just 2 days before arrival so had no real chance to investigate the area.

Calcott annexe is in a brilliant location accessing beautiful quaint places to visit with great pub food just 8 mins and up to half an hour drive away. Our favorite had to be symonds yat 8min drive or 35min walk. Calcott annexe itself was really homely, very clean and great views and for 2 people to escape perfect. Connie is lovely and whilst being next door we had total privacy, but was always on hand and quick to respond to questions. We had everything we needed for our break. Thank you Connie for a lovely stay and we will be back.

We stayed at the cottage between Christmas and New Year.

Although the weather outside was very cold the heating system in the cottage was first class! The electric fire made it feel very cosy. You can walk to the local pub in 15 mins, take a torch though as there isn't any lighting. Lovely walks along the river. Very clean and comfortable. Most enjoyable few days away.

The cottage was spotless nicely situated and a lovely lady greeted us

GREAT PROPERTY, FANTASTIC LOCATION , VERY RURAL YET CLOSE TO EVERYTHING.

GREAT WALKS AND OWNER
