Set tails wagging with an unforgettable stay in the Forest of Dean, bringing dogs along to enjoy the great outdoors of Gloucestershire. This delightful property is in Ellwood, a picture-perfect hamlet that serves as a fantastic base for exploring the Wye Valley. A pack of four guests and two dogs are invited to stay here, soaking up the atmospheric appeal of the two-storey property, where natural features are combined with eclectic, rustic décor. Put feet (and paws) up in comfort in the lounge or garden, letting pets roam the enclosed outdoor space and summerhouse when the sun shines.
Beautifully designed and adorned with unique artworks, this hideaway is impressive from the moment you step inside. Let Rover lead the way as you venture in, stopping off in the entranceway to give muddy paws and wet fur a good clean. From here, continue into the kitchen/diner, a spacious social hub, and the lounge with ample comfy seating and a Smart TV. Leave sleeping dogs to lie on this floor as you head up to bed, where three bedrooms can be found. As for bathrooms, you’ll find a shower room on each floor - convenient when returning home from long hikes. Along with private parking for two cars, the property boasts a large, enclosed garden. Dogs are welcome to roam around here; however, care should be taken around the pretty pond, which is uncovered.
Set off exploring with Fido taking the lead, sniffing out wildlife, waymarked pathways and beautiful viewpoints on varied daily walkies. The picturesque market town of Coleford acts as a gateway to the forest (2 miles), with many well-trodden footpaths accessible from here, and the edge of the Wye Valley AONB just 2 miles away. Discover the River Wye (5 miles), which weaves through the landscape, or follow the Offa’s Dyke Path along the England–Wales border.
