“Wonderful homely place to stay”

This beautiful and well equipped cottage is in a great location for the Forest of Dean and the Wye Valley, as well as the cities of Hereford and Gloucester. There is so much to see within an hours drive, and lots of things to do a lot nearer to the cottage too.

This beautiful and well equipped cottage is in a great location for the Forest of Dean and the Wye Valley, as well as the cities of Hereford and Gloucester. There is so much to see within an hours drive, and lots of things to do a lot nearer to the cottage too. But what was so marvellous was the way the cottage had been equipped (Sally and Les have thought of EVERYTHING you might need), the friendliness and approachability of Sally and Les, the comfort that has been bestowed on the property, the views and the value for money. We will definitely stay here when we come to the area again and will also recommend it to our friends. The milk and afternoon tea provided was lovely too. Thank you for a fabulous time.
Mr Demeza September 2019

“We arrived to a lovely welcome from Sally the owner, she explained about the cottage and made us feel very welcome.”

. The location was superb, great for fabulous walks and sightseeing and central for visiting many locations. The cottage was immaculate in every way and very spacious for a one bed, all fixtures and fittings were of great quality and the bed was extremely comfortable .Even though our weather was hit and miss we had an amazing time, we enjoyed it that much we booked another holiday there before we left to come home. Thank you Les and Sally for an amazing 1st class holiday.
Mrs Swindell September 2019

“This cottage was superb in every way.”

The comfort, lovely decor and homeliness that Sally and Les have created is the best we have experienced in a holiday cottage. We couldn't think of anything that had not been provided for. Added to that, fantastic views, a great location for Forest of Dean and Wye Valley, and the knowledge we only had to call next door, if we needed anything (which we didn't!) means this accommodation is a must if you want to see the area. Oh, and the few essentials and wonderful marmalade and cream tea was the icing on the cake. Thank you so much, and we will definitely rebook if we come down this way again.
Mrs Woodthorpe August 2019

“High Rising cottage is a beautiful place to stay, decorated and furnished to a high standard.”

It is in a great location with wonderful views of the surrounding countryside, within easy reach of places of interest to visit. The owners, Sally and Les were very friendly, helpful and gave good recommendations of where to visit based on our interests. The welcome pack and fresh flowers were a nice touch. We hope to return in the future.
Mr Wells August 2019

“Lovely cottage with amazing views.”
Mrs Merrett June 2019

“The cottage was well equipped, extremely comfortable for the two of us and exceeded our expectations.”

The views across the valleys from the outside seating areas were wonderful. The location was ideal for visiting the surrounding districts and attractions. From the moment we arrived we were made very welcome by our hosts Sally and Les. As users of Sykes Cottages for a number of years we can honestly say that this cottage was up with the best of them and have already rebooked for 2020.

“A fabulous week!”

Wow! A very beautiful and relaxing stay in this lovely cottage. Sally and Les were friendly and very welcoming. The cottage was very well equiped and homely, with stunning views back and front. Thank you for the supply of strawberries and raspberries, which were much appreciated. Ideal for visiting different areas, and only 10 minute walk to the local pub The Alma...bonus! The Alma is amazing! We will back in 2019 for another stay.
Mrs Thornber July 2018

“The owners lived next door and went out of their way to make us welcome and made sure everything was okay.”

They were very friendly.
Mr Iachetta June 2018

“What a lovely cottage, and very well equipped.”

We felt relaxed and enjoyed it's beautiful surroundings and garden. It is close by to places of interest to visit. The owners were very friendly and welcoming, ensuring we had everything we needed, but at hand if we needed to ask something. Such a bonus eating strawberries and raspberries from the garden. Highly recommend this cottage. We will be back in 2019.
Mrs Watt June 2018

“This is possibly the best holiday cottage that we have ever stayed in.”

It is refreshing to stay somewhere which has been thoughtfully furnished to such a high standard, rather than done out with flatpack furnishings and cheap accessories. We were made to feel welcome from the moment we arrived. Everything was clean and comfortable. It was especially nice to have the extra space too! We even enjoyed the cat! Overall a lovely place to say with so many interesting places to visit within easy reach. We would definitely stay here again.
Mrs Keeble March 2018

“Hospitality and friendliness of owners was exceptional.”

The cottage is beautiful and comfortable, just a shame the weather didn’t quite match up!
Ms Chapman February 2018

“The location of the cottage was wonderful - the position and views were perfect.”

The cottage had everything we could've needed and was very homely and comfortable. The owners welcomed us and were on hand if we needed anything. The complimentary cream tea was very thoughtful. A perfect venue for a wonderfully relaxed holiday. We would love to re-visit.
