A lovely cottage in an ideal location for exploring the Forest Of Dean

A cozy cottage big enough for 2. Equipped with everything you could need. A fantastic shower! Dog friendly accommodation. A car is essential to make the most of the sights & walks. A great location for exploring the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire, Herefordshire & Monmouthshire.

A brilliant last minute choice

We booked this break very last minute as we did not expect to be able to take a break. A lovely warm cottage with great little enclosed area outside the cottage for our dog which kept her really safe. Loved the atmosphere and little touches like candles and music playing when we arrived very relaxing. Brilliant host David really made us welcome and could not do enough to assist. Yes we will be back! Helen and Chris Mumbles South Gower

Fabulous

The Olive Barn was thoughtfully put together, with everything one might need, and with the intention of creating a homely feel. The place was clean and fresh. There was a friendly welcome, without being overly available or intrusive. The outside space is small and this may be a consideration. Wasn't too much of an issue and we had ample opportunity to go out and about and be in beautiful green spaces.

Das Cottage ist sehr schön am Rande des Forest of Dean gelegen und sehr liebevoll eingerichtet.

Wir sind sehr herzlich begrüßt worden. Im Haus lief Musik und überall waren kleine Lichter und Kerzen an. Im Ort gibt es einen kleines Lebensmittelgeschäft und einen sehr gutes, italienisches Restaurant. Insgesamt haben wir uns sehr wohlgefühlt und wir wollen auf jedenfall wiederkommen.
