“We had a great week the cottage was perfect great spot to explore the wye valley area.”

The facilities at the cottage were good a real home from home. I would recommend it to anyone hope to visit again in the summer.

“Stunning Cottage & Great Location”

We chose this place for a short autumn get away. The cottage itself is absolutely lovely. Set on the first floor up a short flight of stairs, it opens into an open plan kitchen/ dining area with a comfy sofa and log burner (logs supplied). It is all very well equipped with films to watch, board games, books etc. The kitchen is superbly well equipped so if you want to cook it won’t be an issue, although be warned there are no supermarkets or shops within walking distance so you will need to bring supplies or head out into town. The bedroom has a comfortable king size bed and the bathroom has a hot powerful shower. Perfect after a long walk! The local village is lovely, there are a couple of local pubs which are nice and both within 5-10 mins walk, both do food but we only ate at the Hostelry which was nice. There are some amazing walks locally. We did a beautiful long autumn walk following the riverbank to Symonds Yat rock. We also took our bikes to the Forest of Dean which is 10-15 mins drive away for another lovely day out. I would highly recommend a walk up Coppets hill behind the village for great views of the village, castle and river. Overall, whether you’re active and want to be outdoors or just want to loaf about, relax and chill then this place is for you! The hosts live in the adjacent house, and are very pleasant and helpful. We didn’t see much of them as we were out all day but I’m sure they would be happy to help and point you in the right direction if required!

“Excellent accommodation for a couple”

Stayed for 6 nights in September 2019. The accommodation is a tastefully converted old coach house which retains the character with old beams but has all modern requirements with central heating, a wood burner and thoughtful lighting. Goodrich is only a couple of miles from Symonds Yat and is a good place for exploring neighbouring areas. We really appreciated the fresh eggs and fresh fruit provided by Liz. Probably the best accommodation for two people we have come accross. Would certainly return if we were in the area.

“There is no longer a shop in Goodrich so need to take essentials like milk etc to avoid a car journey on arrival.”

Owners great and very welcoming.

“Excellent accommodation close to Symonds Yat and a good position for exploring the area.”

Very well renovated coach house showing the old beams but with all modern requirements. Thoughtful lighting and both central heating and a wood burner. We enjoyed the fresh eggs and fresh fruit provided by Liz. Great views from the nearby churchyard over the surrounding countryside. No hesitation in recommending the property.

- Mr Chambers, September 2019
“The owners were extremely friendly, but not constantly bothering you.”

They left us some eggs which was really lovely. The accommodation was everything we expected, and more! It was a truly beautiful location and we had a fabulous time. Many thanks.

“Granton Coach House was comfortable , warm and in a pretty situation.”

We made the most of the attractive countryside and the village of Goodrich.This is a lovely walking area, but there are many other things to see and do.We particularly liked Ledbury, Ross , and Monmouth. Good pubs and coffee shops everywhere. We found the owners , Liz and John , to be very welcoming and pleasant.There for you if you wanted anything, but happy for you to be independent if you wished. We would recommend Granton Coach House to everyone.A real find and with a fascinating history. Janet and Dave Filsell

“Great place to stay”

Very comfortable accommodation for two people, well equipped, clean and cosy. The property is set in a good location, there are two pubs within walking distance, both serving food, and many walks in the beautiful countryside. Goodrich provides a a good base from which to explore and visit many interesting places.

It had all that one needed to enjoy a holiday and is located in the very beautiful Wye Valley.

- Mr Kenworthy, September 2018

“Perfect hideaway for 2”

Loved this hideaway for 2 ideal location for us we were blessed with exceptional weather the week we stayed. There is a shady area to sit or if you prefer you can sit in the sun. John and Liz are great hosts advising us of places to eat out. in the area. The accommodation is well thought out and the kitchen area includes a dishwasher with a washing machine in the utility area. Loved the picture montage and brief history of the coach house.

“A well kept and comfortable holiday cottage.”

Would not hesitate to return if in the area. Friendly accommodating hosts.

- Mr Longley, March 2018
“A home from home......”

The cottage is ideally situated, just off the A40, 3 miles outside Ross on Wye, giving access to the Cotwolds, Herefordshire, Brecon Beacons and South Wales - in just under an hour. An idyllic country retreat, with all the sights and sounds of the countryside, located in private grounds with ample parking. A very peaceful location. A great place to get away from everything, de-stress or have a romantic weekend! The owners have given every thought to providing all mod cons from washing machine, dishwasher, ironing board, everything, so it is a good base for exploring the area with somewhere secure to return. The cottage has been renovated from an unused property some years ago to a high standard accommodation with high quality furnishings to suit. Gas Centrally heated and very snug on cold nights. The owners live adjacent but do not interfere in your comings and goings and are polite and friendly. In fact we found all the locals in the area and beyond were extremely friendly. It must be the fresh air! There are various local walks and attractions locally within 5 miles and some recommended local gastro pubs of varying quality. No complaints and highly recommended.

“Perfection”

Our week at Granton Coach House, Goodrich was outstanding and we wished we had booked two. The property is immaculate, very spacious for two and has been sympathetically modernised. It is well equipped and wonderfully quiet. A pleasure to come back to after busy day sightseeing. Goodrich Village is a beautiful location. It has the Castle with a tea shop, a small local shop and pubs with good food, all within walking distance. Goodfich is perfectly situated as a base for exploring the area with National Trust properties and numerous places of interest to visit. We walked to Symonds Yat for lunch and enjoyed the breathtaking scenery. The owners Liz and John are friendly and helpful and we hope to see them again next year. Marsha and Dennis

“PERFECT RETREAT”

Granton Coach House is a lovely cosy cottage ideally located for visiting the local area of the Wye Valley, with a wealth of wild life in the cottage grounds. Coppett Hill Ridge is a short walk from the cottage, full of Bluebells and wild Orchids at this time of the year. Goodrich Castle is only a short distance away on foot and is well worth a visit. The owners of Granton House who live only a few yards away are a wealth of knowledge on the local area which makes your visit to this part the country even more rewarding! Within walking distance are a couple of good local eating places the Hostelrie (near Goodrich castle) and the Cross Keys. For garden lovers Hampton Court Castle Gardens near Leominster and Dewstow Hidden Gardens near Caldicot both about 3/4 hour away are a must see!!

“Lovely house in a lovely location”

This is a real home from home. We stay in a lot of holiday homes and this is one of the nicest we have ever been in. It was really clean and welcoming, with lots of light coming in. The bed was really comfortable and had nice quality bed linen. It was in a very quiet location with the owners nearby if there were any problems. It was very warm with the facility to override the heating if necessary. There is also a wood burner, but we never needed it. Also there was a plentiful supply of dishwasher tablets, toilet rolls etc., which often isn't the case! We were able to visit Ross on Wye, Monmouth, Gloucester and Hereford by bus. The local pub, the Hostelrie, was a short walk away which had excellent food. There was lots of walking right from the door, with walking books provided in the house. Symonds Yat Rock is a must to see the nesting peregrine falcons and the most fantastic views. All in all would highly recommend and would like to visit again.

“Lovely Cottage in a great location”

“Lovely cottage, lovely location, a perfect getaway”

Most pleasant cottage we have stayed in, owners had thought of everything we could possibly need. Kitchen brilliant, bedroom very comfortable with lovely en-suite. Very pretty coach house close to owner's house in beautiful grounds, quiet and very relaxing, a perfect place to chill. Perfect place to visit Symonds Yat, Herefordshire, South Wales and Cotswolds. So nice to come back to after a long day visiting all our favourite places.

- David W, June 2015
“Lovely all round”

Lovely accommodation, lovely owners next door. All very clean and comfortable, especially that bed. Visitor reviews in the Visitors Book are all very positive. Plenty of tips for local hostelries and restaurants. Within easy reach of many attractions and beautiful countryside. Very satisfied.

“We found Bliss”

We stayed at Granton Cochhouse for a week at the beginning of May. We regularly have self-catering breaks in the UK, some good, some not so good, but this one is exactly what it says on the tin. It has a welcoming verandah, handy for off-loading your muddy boots after a beautiful walk in the surrounding breath taking countryside. It's a lovely bright and comfortable accommodation with everything you might need for a week away. With a well equipped kitchen with everything you might need, pretty little bathroom with wonderfully powerful shower and a sumptuously clean and comfortable bed. It's set in a lovely village which is right on top of a footpath, the scenery is breath taking, with the views of surrounding Coppett Hill and the pretty old church mesmerising from the inside of the cottage. There is also a good pub within a short walk. Relaxation isn't hard to come by here and we will be back - Bliss, Kay & Mike Burridge.

GOODRICH

Symonds Yat 1.5 miles; Ross-on-Wye 4 miles.

This lovely, quaint village stands on the banks of the River Wye, in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in the wonderful Wye Valley, and borders the Royal Forest of Dean. The famous Goodrich Castle is situated within the village, a perfect example of a 12th century “Marcher Castle”. Nestling amidst the village’s picturesque houses are the delightful village hall, friendly shop and two friendly pubs serving good food. Close by, overlooking a large loop in the River Wye, is the historic market town of Ross-on-Wye, in the heart of rural Herefordshire. 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 lovely 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, while The Cotswolds and Cardiff are less than an hour’s drive away.
