Cottage vacation rentals in Symonds Yat

Simply stunning, the pictures don't do it justice. the locations & views were awesome. The property is very well laid out, well equipped and the quirky decor suits the propert perfectly. The outside space is so well thought out go get the most of the views. The real star of this place to me was the hot tub, just sitting in there and admiring the views - just perfect

Lovely stay for the weekend - it’s really beautiful and well appointed. Spotless and spacious. Communication before arrival was excellent. I scraped my ankle and the hosts provided plasters promptly which was much appreciated. Bath was also very comfy, a real treat as we don’t have one! Would definitely recommend.

A beautiful well appointed cottage, lovely and clean with comfortable beds. The hot tub in the well kept private garden was a bonus. Poppy was responsive to questions and queries and had left some lovely personal touches to make check nice and smooth. Bath is just a short drive and there are lots of local pubs for a lovely meal out. The surrounding area was quiet and beautiful. We would definitely go back.

The cottage was perfect. It was homely, beautifully thought out and furnished with lots of little furnishing to make it really cosy and welcoming. We loved the outside spaces too- the hot tub was amazing and the BBQ area too. It certainly gave us all we needed for a fabulous stay. We’ll definitely be back.

We had a lovely family stay. The cottage and esp the hot tub were fab. Lots for the kids to play with and do, and nice to chill out

Had a wonderful relaxing stay at Carley’s house. Close to a main road but quick access into nature with lovely creek trails that we used for walks and runs. Really cosy feel inside with a nice living space to spend time and very comfortable sleeping arrangements. Outside there are plenty of options with multiple sitting areas if the weather is right and the spa was perfect at the end of each day to unwind even if a little tight for 4 adults. Carley was very communicative, we didn’t have any issues but I’m sure they would be solved quickly if there were any!

A really lovely location, very private and peaceful. There were so many nice local walks and a lovely Jacuzzi to sink into afterwards! The cottage was really cozy and very warm. Meng was really kind and generous with advice and was always ready to offer recommendations and encouraged us to ask if we needed anything. An amazing host, an amazing cottage and an amazing weekend getaway!

Jamie and Dan were brilliant hosts. We were welcomed with the key in the door ready for arrival with a bottle of Prosecco and a bottle of milk for a cup of tea! The cottage was beautifully presented - perfect for a couples retreat. The cottage is very tucked away however, Jamie’s instructions were spot on so made it very easy to find. Dan messaged us to check that we had everything that we wanted and to just let them know if we needed anything. We based ourselves here and went to and from Gloucester and Cheltenham. A lush weekend and would highly recommend!

There are SuperHosts and then there’s Pete!! What a star - he likes to chat to newcomers if he can, and we found him full of really useful info. He even managed to get us a table at the local pub, The White Horse. It was packed, but the service and food were excellent. He also recommended a walk up to the Kymin, which was fantastic - what a view. Pete also gave us the most generous welcome basket of goodies we’ve ever had!! All in all, the perfect, peaceful, pad in a great location to get anywhere in the Wye valley, Forest of Dean or wider Monmouthshire. And Pete!

Wonderful long weekend at Flagstone Cottage, the most peaceful place we’ve ever been, no car noises whatsoever and beautiful scenery. Cottage was exactly as described. We asked for the BBQ to come back out and Clare actually brought out all the outside furniture for us to use which was a nice surprise when we got back from our day trip. Our 5yo daughter loved the mezzanine bedroom and being able to have multiple baths a day (we only have a shower at home). The walk from Llanthony Priory up Hatterhall hill is amazing and the pint in the priory grounds at the end was very scenic and rewarding! Hay-On-Wye is well worth a visit, Abergavenny also.

We loved the cottage ,so clean and comfortable and the garden/stream /swing and animals were a real hit with the children. We were made to feel very welcome -homemade cake ,lovely coffee ,bread and eggs ,such a nice touch with Easter eggs for the kids . Thank you Tracey and Dave .

This is a beautiful property that exceeded expectations. The host was very welcoming and had everything we needed when we got there. I would highly recommend it.

We stayed for 2 nights at Sharon’s place and were very happy with everything about the house and area. I had not realised how rural the village was and loved the views from the back door watching the sun rise over the hill. The house was spotless and well appointed. The welcome pack was a nice touch although we had brought food with us. The beds and bedding were very comfortable. We had an Indian takeaway from Merthyr Tydfil the first night which we collected. Only 18 minutes drive away, then cooked the second night. Plenty of utensils in the kitchen. We loved the drive over the moors with the fabulous views and had a wonderful hike in the Brecon Beacons. We also visited Brecon and enjoyed having a look around d the shops. Sharon was very responsive and able to give recommendations. We would recommend to anyone planning to explore the area.

This was my second time staying at Norton Court Farm and it was just as wonderful as the first. The cottage was cozy, spotlessly clean and appointed with many thoughtful amenities that make it feel like a home away from home. The kitchen was fully equipped making it easy to cook meals and the host was very welcoming and offered some lovely local recommendations. Thank you so much for hosting us! :)

From entering the tree lined driveway to arriving and seeing the view from the property, we were delighted with our choice. The interior didn't disappoint - very welcoming, well laid out and clean. The kitchen was well equipped, bathrooms clean and plenty of hot water for showering. Very peaceful location. Our host was very quick to answer any queries. Great to find some laminated maps/instructions for walks in the immediate area.

The bungalow is clean, comfortable and provided all that we needed for a short Easter break. The living area was equipped with all the basics, as well as with free Wi-fi and Netflix, although no other channels were available. The tv was small (32"), especially when seated on the sofa or armchair. During our three night stay, the local Forest School and Oakraven Centre had children attending courses, so there was something of a mini 'Rush hour' in the morning and evening. It was not a problem but required wariness for walkers and opposing traffic in a single track road. The woodland walks locally are good and plentiful, Lorraine providing good guidelines to other attractions and trails. A beautiful area.

Loved Little Pippins. Cosy with it's wood-burner, comfortable Superking bed, well equipped kitchen - and gorgeous views over Avening. Great location, friendly & helpful host.

Fay's place is amazing - extremely well appointed, squeaky clean, super cosy, so comfortable. The house is beautiful and perfect for a family. Extremely convenient to all of the beautiful walks the area has to offer, plus Monmouth for anything you might need. Fay and Mike were so kind - showing us around their garden, letting my child help feed the horses. Lovely outdoor fire area and grounds for us to explore. Fay was also incredibly responsive. What a gem of a place!

We greatly enjoyed our brief retreat at this nice and charming Cotswold Cottage, off the beaten track. Very nice accommodation, immediately felt "like home". Very well equipped (though we didn't make use of the cooking facilities...) and also top regarding heating, insulation, internet access ... And the recommended "King's Head" pub around the corner was excellent (with the unexpected benefit of live music on Saturday evening...). Nice hiking/rambling options, too.

We had the most amazing stay to celebrate our Honeymoon. The cottage was beyond our expectations - felt like we were living in a fairytale. Martin had left lots of useful information about the local area which we used to plan our days and get the most out of our time in the Cotswolds. The cottage itself had everything you could possibly need for the most relaxing, peaceful stay. A trip we will never forget! Thank you for letting us experience a little cottage life with such breathtaking views all around! We cannot wait to visit again!

Extremely well serviced upon arrival , milk ,breakfast cereal ,lots of bathroom products and cleaners for kitchen surfaces , was given exact directions being a 15 min walk to local pub the property gives easy access to Cardiff and points of interest locally also within a couple of hours to the Cotswolds and Wye valley .

We had a really great stay. The house was well equipped and super cosy. The beds were comfortable and we enjoyed the lovely big bath. The location is absolutely fab, being less than 5 mins walk to two lovely pubs. A highlight was the bbq hut which we had so much fun cooking in and also using the fire pit and spending the evening under the stars. I am sure we will be back.

Had a lovely 3 nights stay in a very comfortable cottage with beautiful views across open countryside. The cottage is well equipped with everything you may need and was very clean . Lovely sunny conservatory leads onto garden and patio . Comfortable bed with lovely comfy pillows. Excellent location for travel to many of the popular tourist locations all within easy reach. Good instructions from Chris and Natalie for directions and check-in as well as secure gated parking . Would stay again if we revisit the area again.

We had a lovely Easter weekend @ Bumblebee cottage. The location was peaceful & tranquil. The cottage was lovely, very clean, everything you need & some lovely artwork to look at. Liz was friendly & welcoming but low key @ the same time. We loved sitting in the conservatory & watching the sunset & bats in the evening. I would highly recommend & will definitely come back.
