Summary

The property provided a great stay with ample space, comfortable beds, and a well-equipped kitchen, ideal for larger groups. However, several maintenance issues need addressing, including black mould in bathrooms, slow shower drainage, and cleanliness concerns. Communicative owners and a beautiful location were appreciated.

The property

A large detached Georgian property ideally located in the picturesque village of Lydbrook on the banks of the River Wye in the Forest of Dean. Set in a stunning location with fantastic views from the upper floors, with lovely character features throughout making this great for a family get-together or celebration with friends. Enter the property up the stone steps into a lovely central hall with Minton floor tiles. Immediately off the hall are two gorgeous sitting rooms both boasting sumptuous sofas and warming woodburning stoves ideal for those chilly evenings. To the rear of the property is a large stunning dining kitchen, providing everything the chef of the party could wish for and making a perfect place to enjoy a celebratory meal or lazy Sunday lunch. There are eight bedrooms to choose from, all beautifully presented, with four having zip/link facility, giving plenty of flexibility. Three stunning bathrooms ensure guests can enjoy a soak in the bath without others having to queue. The property has the added bonus of a lower ground floor storage area - perfect for mountain bikes, kayaks and fishing gear - this room can be accessed from both inside and outside the house. Outside the large garden makes a great place to enjoy family games, let the kids let off steam or just relax and enjoy a BBQ or alfresco dining on a summers evening. There are many lovely walks and cycle routes from the doorstep of the cottage or take a stroll into the village and enjoy a meal at one of the many pubs. Take a short drive to Monmouth or Ross-on-Wye offering numerous amenities including restaurants, tea rooms and individual shops not to mention the many lovely walks. The area has something to suit all tastes making Viaduct House a great base for a memorable holiday at any time of year.
