This property is sitiuted in a row of riverside Herefordshire cottages in Symonds Yat where the River Wye winds its way around a 500 foot high limestone outcrop through a deeply wooded gorge. From the top of nearby Symonds Yat Rock the views across the Forest of Dean, down the gorge and over to the Welsh hills are breathtaking. The Rock is on the Gloucestershire side of the river, with Herefordshire on the opposite side. The only connection between the two banks is an ancient hand-pull ferry. For a small fee, the ferryman pulls foot passengers across the river using an overhead rope.
