“Lovely cottage in beautiful area.”

Lovely cottage in beautiful area. David, Kate and Inca were very welcoming and there wasn’t anything we could fault with the cottage. Lots to do in the area and great walks. One very happy dog!

“Peaceful and Pretty”

Hope Mansell is a lovely, quiet location, close to lots of the attractions in the Forest of Dean with many country lanes to explore. Even in August there was very little traffic. The owners were very friendly and left us to our own devices, which we appreciated - but were only next door if we would have needed them. We have two young boys so enjoyed our days out at Goodrich Castle, Clearwell Caves, Dean Heritage Centre, Symonds Yat (East is nicer than West which is a big caravan site with just snack bars rather than pubs). We also did some short walks in the forest starting at the really nice Forestry Commission sites which you can park at all day for £5. All of the main attractions are within a 30 min drive. The house was clean and comfortable with a very well equipped kitchen. The only thing that wasn't clear on the instructions which affected us was that the two bedrooms were on opposite sides of the house which meant we had to have our youngest boy sleeping with us. Not a problem for most but something to bear in mind depending on the ages of your children. Otherwise, I would recommend the owners (who have another cottage to rent in Larne, Wales), the accommodation and the area.

“This cottage was Ideal for us, the ...”

This cottage was Ideal for us, the owners met us when we arrived and made sure we had anything we needed. They also made our dog Obi feel welcome. We visit the area 2/3 times a year because mum and dad live in Ruardean so the location for us was perfect. The cottage had everything we needed and was very warm and cosy - we spent our evenings playing board games which is something we haven't done in years. Perfect retreat for couples or small family's.

“Nice barn great location”

Lovely barn in a great location.wonderful garden,brilliant for our two dogs.David and Kate were very good hosts,friendly and helpful without being too intrusive.The barn itself was very warm and cosy,even though it was October we never had to use the wood stove once.Overall the barn had everything that you needed for a weeks stay,the only complaint we could have was that the two single beds really need new mattresses,very uncomfortable. There was so much to do in the local area,with The lovely towns of Ross on Wye and Monmouth certainly worth a visit.Goods walks from the door and wonderful scenery. Very relaxing stay and would certainly return!!

“Beautiful dog friendly cottage.”

We have had a lovely holiday. The cottage is really nice and cosy. The pictures do not do it justice. The garden is also amazing and we enjoyed sitting outside in the evening. The owners are really friendly and make you feel very welcome. We very much enjoyed meeting their Flatcoat, Inca. There are lots of things to do in the area. Our four year old son did not want to come home.

“Excellent location”

A beautiful stone built former cider house circa 1700 that has been lovingly restored by current owners, who live next door. The owners, including their lovely flat coated retriever, Inca, could not have been more welcoming. The property is set in a valley with superb walks and stunning scenery close by. The cottage was very comfortable with everything provided, including a dishwasher! Would most certainly go back. Highly recommended.

“Wonderful”

Had a great time here with wonderful hosts. We had the most wonderful weather for our stay but whatever the weather it is a lovely barn. the owners are very nice and welcoming. The village is a bit off the beaten track but that made it all the better for us. It was great for our Dalmatian too as huge garden for her and she couldn't get out!! Lots of walks around the area and good location for visiting Herefordshire and Gloucestershire.
