Mr Watts
April 2021

“The cottage is ideally situated on the cusp of the forest, which makes it perfect for picking up the footpaths.”

As described, it is very well kept, extremely cosy & tranquillity of the area makes this superb for a relaxing break. The hot tub is a lovely touch, which is great to relax in after many miles of walking/cycling, topped off with superb views of the forest. Again, location makes it very easy access to the various attractions around the forest of Dean. We loved this cottage & loved the forest!

“This was a lovely cottage would highly recommend it for a couple.”

With the Coronavirus epidemic. The cottage was clean and cared for in a very professional way. We were informed of the changes that were in place, and could supplement items that’s could not be provided. We had the most charming week. Plenty of walks, and the hot tub was a fantastic asset. Well maintained. We were delighted. Enjoyed the glow and warmth of log burner in evenings.

“Good central location and easy to explore the local area and the Forest of Dean.”

The cottage was brilliant and had everything you needed. The owners were available if we need help and we also felt safe. We will definitely use this cottage again.

Mrs Mcfarland August 2020

“Lilly Cottage is a fantastic property with many of the comforts of home.”

It is located in a great position for walking in the Forest of Dean, and there is a 45 minute circular walk just a 2 minute walk from the cottage! We loved the hot tub, while we enjoyed the view of the Forest. It was a nice touch to have fresh flowers and chocolates. Thanks very much to the owners for making the cottage so comfortable.

Mrs Diaper July 2020

“Lilly Cottage is a very comfortable well laid out cottage and the hot tub was lovely after a days walking.”

This cottage is in a very quiet area but close to a good local pub, and all areas of the Forest of Dean are easily accessible from the Cottage. We very much enjoyed our stay and the little touches of fresh flowers and chocolates and a Welcome card were very much appreciated.

“Cosy Getaway, great location”

As soon as we arrived we were very impressed at how clean the cottage is , absolutely immaculate, and appreciated the small touches such as the wild flowers in the vase on the windowseal. We loved the wood burner and the hot tub, very cosy on the cold winter days. Great location too with lots of things to do locally. Will hopefully be booking again for later in the year.

Mrs Slater December 2019

“Lovely cottage, was perfect for me and my husband for a short break over new year.”

Great facilities, the only thing missing was a pair of scissors. The surrounding area with walks and pubs were fantastic. We would definitely like to return. The hot tub was amazing.

Mrs Mackay November 2019

“Lilly Cottage was a wonderful, peaceful little escape on the very edge of the Forest.”

Matt and Chloe were welcoming, very friendly and willing to help with any questions etc. The cottage was immaculate as was the hot tub, which had wonderful views into the forest trees. The autumn colours were amazing. The cottage was small but perfectly adequate for the two of us and our little dog. It had everything we needed, was cosy with the added bonus of a wood burning stove, light and tastefully decorated. The bed was extremely comfortable and altogether, we had a very enjoyable and relaxing few days enjoying the Forest walks, nearby harbour walks, tearooms, local pubs

- Mrs Mackay, November 2019
Miss Hayes August 2019

“A lovely little cottage with everything you could possibly require for a short break.”

The forest is literally right next door, with a pathway leading to numerous stunning walks being found right at the end of the drive. There’s plenty to do in the local area, and a well-stocked leaflet rack has been kept up to date so you can find activities, walks and more. The local pub was great for drinks and food, once we could tear ourselves away from the hot tub. I would definitely recommend Lilly Cottage.

“This was a beautiful cottage in a stunning location.”

The cottage was very comfortable and spotlessly clean, and the hot tub made for a very relaxing stay. There was also plenty to do in the surrounding area. We had a fantastic stay and would definitely stay there again.

“A really lovely cottage for a very relaxing holiday!”

- Mrs Vernon, June 2019
Mr Oneill June 2019

“Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Lilly Cottage despite a week of poor weather, the wood burning fire and sheltered Jacuzzi were a welcome sight at the end of the day.”

We'd recommend visiting Symonds Yat & Goodrich Castle,The Mill Race was a fantastic pub also.

- Mr Oneill, June 2019
Mrs Sokald April 2019

“Great cosy place to stay in a wonderful location.”

Really quiet and relaxing and the cottage provided everything we needed during the week. Hosts were really friendly and on hand should we ever need them. Explored the area by foot, bike and canoe and nothing was more than a short drive away (as well as being the Forest on your doorstep!) Great holiday and wonderful cottage!

- Mrs Sokald, April 2019
Mr Conyer April 2019

“Thoroughly enjoyed both the cottage and the area.”

Would certainly go back there.
