About this property

A wonderful Georgian holiday home ideally located in the heart of the village of Whitchurch in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The property is situated between the pretty riverside towns of Ross-on-Wye and Monmouth on the edge of the Royal Forest of Dean. Full of character and charm, the property provides versatile accommodation perfect for a large family gathering or get together with friends by seamlessly combining modern day essentials with original features such as feature fireplaces, wooden floors and panelling, all with a vintage twist. Each of the eight bedrooms have been individually styled including antique beds, Louis XVI style French furniture and modern bedding, which all add to the charm and home-from-home comfort. Three out of the eight bedrooms have the added benefit of en-suite facilities with the family bathroom featuring a freestanding roll-top bath. This well-laid out holiday home has two separate sitting rooms, perfect for those needing a bit of quiet time. Relax with friends over a celebratory dinner or relaxing Sunday lunch in the large dining room, which is big enough to accommodate the whole party, or enjoy morning coffee in the farmhouse-style kitchen complete with range cooker. This delightful holiday home also boasts a scullery/boot room and separate utility complete with games for all ages. Outside is a large enclosed garden with seating areas, ideal for enjoying alfresco dining or relaxing with a refreshing drink after a day exploring this beautiful part of the country. Many lovely walks can be enjoyed from the doorstep with the Wye Valley Walk running close by. Nearby, guests can enjoy the many outdoor activities in the Forest of Dean and Wye Valley as well as Symonds Yat Rock, The Amazing Hedge Puzzle, Clearwell Caves, Puzzlewood and the historic towns of Ledbury, Hereford and Gloucester. A wonderful property for a memorable holiday at any time of year.

Overlooking a loop in the River Wye is the historic market town of Ross-on-Wye, situated in the heart of rural Herefordshire and in the picturesque Wye Valley. This attractive town has timbered Tudor houses clustered around the striking 17th Century Market Hall, and there are excellent shops, pubs and restaurants to suit every taste. Stroll along the river bank, take a river cruise or view the surrounding countryside from a hot-air balloon. Enjoy trips to Symonds Yat, Hay-on-Wye, the Black Mountains and the Forest of Dean.

    There was plenty of space for us to enjoy, and a secure garden, which was particularly important with little children about. Cakes and fresh flowers welcomed us in to the large kitchen and we were particularly impressed with the comprehensive and generous nature of the cooking utensils and the crockery - with 16 of us there we never ran out of plates, mugs or cutlery! Beds were all comfortable, and bathroom facilites adequate. The house felt very warm and welcoming, and our only 'less than perfect ' comment is that the settees were rather stale smelling, and would benefit from a deep clean.

    2023 - 02.06.2023. We were a family of 14, 8 adults, 6 children range 7-16 and 2 dogs, celebrating 2 70th birthdays. We all had a brilliant time, plenty of rooms for children to play hide & seek, or sit and relax/read. The dining room accommodated all 14 around the table. The kitchen had all the utensils, big pans for self catering as was plenty of plates mugs, dishes etc. There was 2 large fridge freezers to keep food, wine and beer cold. There was also plenty of indoor board games. The garden was big enough to play football, safe for dogs from escaping and to throw balls for the them. We took our own swing ball and badminton net/rackets, but there was also plenty of outdoor toys there. We took our own paddle boards and kayaks and there was a self launch jetty through the nearby camp site £2.00 per board or kayak payable to the icrecream parlour. Which was handy, we paid for one car (£6.50 for all day) with all the equipment and the rest walked the few hundred yards. I would point out that ‘The Crown Pub’ is no longer a pub but an Indian Restaurant which does take always. The food is excellent. The local shop/cafe is packed with all essentials and there is a Budgen and Lidle a short car ride away. The family would like to go again maybe over Christmas! I would recommend Cedar House especially suitable for large families or group of friends. Suzanne

    kids really enjoyed the garden. impressively equipped kitchen, with lots of lovely cupboards to store food in too. bathrooms were a bit tricky, very few showers and the main, non ensuite shower drained very badly and had a tendency to overflow if you took more than the briefest of showers. check in very easy
