LOCATION & DESCRIPTION
Rock House occupies a truly special location, close to the heart of the market and tourist town of Ross-on-Wye, and overlooking the horseshoe bend of The River Wye. From the front door, one can be by the river in under a minute, with walks in many directions, or into the town itself within a matter of minutes.
For those travelling in and out of the area, the A40 dual carriageway and M50 motorway are within minutes drive, giving first class access to the national motorway network.
The property has been lovingly renovated by the current vendors to create the unique property that you see today. This is a one-off opportunity to own a property on which the owners have stamped their own very particular character.
If you enjoy entertaining guests, then look no further. With four generous double bedrooms, there is plenty of space for friends and family to stay. You will of course be making the most of the secret high level garden with bar, seating area and hot tub.
