A wonderful family stay
A very clean and comfortable property, tastefully decorated and furnished, providing an excellent base from which to explore the Forest of Dean. We paid extra to hire a hot-tube which was enjoyed by us all. The grounds are spacious and lovely too. The fresh cakes that greeted our arrival were delicious! For those not used to living with traffic noise, the proximity to the busy, main road may be an issue, but we're used to it so it did not bother us too much. The owners were lovely and left us to it, while being close on hand had we needed them. Tracey was highly communicative in the run up to our holiday. Thanks to both Tracey and David - you have a lovely holiday home for all to enjoy.
