October break

We just had a 4 night stay but it was a very pleasant experience. The Coach House is well laid out, especially for two sets of families. The beds are comfortable and the whole property is clean. It is ideally situated for walking locally and for visiting the sights.

Perfect Stay in an ideal location

Booked the property to meet up with family, and work remotely. Worked out perfectly. It’s a quiet location and well placed to explore the area. Off street parking is a bonus, and an easy walk to The Ostrich for some good home cooked food. Thanks!!

Friends reunion in beautiful setting

This is a beautiful house in a picturesque village surrounded by stunning countryside. The house is really well equipped and comfortable with plenty of space for everyone. We did country walks from the house on both days we were there and the scenery was spectacular - there is so much to explore and enjoy in this area. I would thoroughly recommend this property and hope we might return there in the future.

Perfect property and location

My wife and I needed a good sized property located for easy access to the Wye Valley and Forest of Dean. This property is perfectly located in a quiet village within easy reach of excellent walks and cycle routes. The Coach House is comfy, well equipped and in a quiet spot. The pub nearby did good food and is within 2 minutes walking distance. Overall a superb spot. The owners were on hand for enquiries and were very helpful.

Spacious and well equipped plus delicious cake!

A great base to explore the area from. The best equipped self-catering kitchen I've come across. Large bedrooms, great showers and enough living space to spread out and do your own thing if wanted (handy when holidaying with older children/teens). The only potential downside we found is that there are steps up and down throughout plus varnished wooden treads on the stairs, so it's a bit tricky for anyone who's less steady on their feet. Other great benefits of staying here include a delicious cake, speedy broadband and an electric car charge point.

Lovely getaway

A lovely house to stay in, for four OAP friends. We met up for lunch in the Ostrich and visited the church on our forst afternoon. We got out to Symonds Yat on our first full day and enjoyed sitting in the garden chairs in the late afternoon. The kitchen was easy to use, as we self catered for two nights. We visited Tintern Abbey on the next day and watched a falconry display, and then treated ourselves to a meal at the Ostrich on our last night. All very delightful things to do while we were there and we felt so at home, going back to the Coach House each day. Highly recommended.

Great house, great location

We had a lovely stay here as three couples, we had lots of space so we could all do our own thing and not get in each others' way, but also enough space to come together for meals. We had good communication with the owners. The house is gorgeous, furnished to a high standard with everything you could need. We loved the enclosed courtyard garden, particularly for breakfast. The village is quiet, with a great pub (recommended!) and the church is well worth a visit. We found it a great location to walk and cycle from, the Forest of Dean is excellent for both. We also spent time at Symonds Yat kayaking, walking and cycling there. I would highly recommend this property and wouldn't hesitate to book again.

Wunderschönes Cottage

Wir haben als sechsköpfige Familie unseren zweiwöchigen Urlaub im Coach House verbracht. Das Cottage ist total gemütlich, großräumig, detailverliebt und hat uns und unseren 4 Kindern absolut ausreichend Platz gegeben. Es ist alles vorhanden, was man braucht. Die Küche ist super gut ausgestattet, der Esstisch im Wohnbereich sehr groß. Es gibt zwei Wohnzimmer mit Couch, Sesseln und zwei Fernsehgeräten, zwei Badezimmer, davon eins mit Wanne, einen Kamin und 3 Schlafzimmer mit viel Platz. Im Cottage stehen zahlreiche Flyer mit Ausflugsmöglichkeiten zur Verfügung. Sogar Spiele und Bücher stehen bereit. Im unmittelbaren Umfeld gibt es zahlreiche Aktivitäten für Familien. Wir konnten unseren zweiwöchigen Urlaub gut füllen. Besonders erwähnenswert ist, dass Alison uns am Anreisetag ein sehr leckeres Abendessen gekocht und einen Kuchen gebacken hat. Als wir nach 10 Stunden Anreise aus Deutschland angekommen sind, war der Tisch bereits gedeckt und das Essen war fertig. Für den folgenden Tag hatte uns Alison bereits das Frühstück eingekauft, sodass wir als Großfamilie ganz entspannt ankommen konnten. Vielen lieben Dank dafür. Wir haben uns sehr herzlich Willkommen gefühlt und können das Coach House jedem empfehlen, der einen entspannten Urlaub verbringen und die Natur genießen möchte.
