A beautiful country home set within a traditional village in the heart of the Forest of Dean, a perfect base for family or friends to explore whatever the time of year.
This truly majestic and unusual property could be the perfect site for your next family reunion or special break away with friends. Sleeping eight humans and two dogs, there is plenty of room for everyone in this beautiful house. In the midst of the Gloucester countryside and with the natural treasures of the Forest of Dean on your doorstep, your dogs will enjoy some very special walks.
The property is a large family house, laid out over three floors, with traditional country features and elegant modern interiors. The main hub is your glorious open-plan living space. The kitchen is a sleek, chef’s dream, with a central island perfect for long, leisurely baking sessions. The dining space sits close by, a stunning formal setup, great for a celebratory occasion. When you’re full and sleepy, head through to the cosy den with its exposed stone fireplace and wood burner where you and the pups can stretch out and relax or head to the inviting lounge and watch a film. The bedrooms sit over the first and second floors, and enjoy views out over the sweeping forested landscape. All have en-suite bathrooms and are decorated stylishly in deep, restful tones and sumptuous details. The space outside the property is ideal for eager dogs — the conservatory leads out to a patio and up onto an enclosed stretch of lawn.
The River Lyd drifts by the end of your garden, calling you on to discover this mysterious terrain. You’ll want to get your walking boots on and start your exploration of the Forest of Dean. Begin in the traditional Gloucestershire village of Whitecroft. The two village inns are both friendly. From here, you can wander into the forest by way of trails heading off from the village. Your dog will love bounding along the banks of the River Wye.
