Absolutely beautiful cottage at the edge of the forest. We had our 2 Labradors with us and were able to walk them straight from the door and into the forest within minutes and they loved it. Cottage was very well equipped with everything you need and more. There was milk in the fridge on arrival. Very comfortable beds and great shower rooms. TRead morehe cottage garden is lovely and in full flower such a shame we couldn't sit out in in much due to the weather. Many places to visit not too far away and great walks. We ate out a couple of times and would recommend both The Butchers Arms in Clearwell and the Old White Hart in Coleford . We would definitely consider returning to the cottage Hide
