A very well located cottage within 10-15 minute drive of lots of outdoor activities on the river and in the forest. 2 nearby shops and a pub within a a short walk so it was all really convenient. The cottage was newly painted and immaculately clean. It is not the biggest cottage we have stayed in but great to use as a base and had everything we neeRead moreded for a week long stay. The owners could not have been nicer. Our dog loved the field behind the cottage and all the nearby trails in the woods. Hide

Great little place to take the family on our first visit to the Forest of Dean, clean and comfortable and in a great location with off road parking. Just a short drive or a reasonable walk to local points of interest, with a pub, shop and forest walks just a few minutes walk away. Would visit again and recommend to others.
