What our customers say about their holidays

  We had to leave early because I became unwell.

  The couple who own the annex are very friendly and helpful without being intrusive. The cottage is ideal for 2 for a week and close to the Forest of Dean which is beautiful. Also just a 10 minute drive away is a lovely hotel called The Speech House which we visited twice in our short stay, once for coffee and cake taken in the Orangery and one evening for a relaxing pint. Highly recommended as it is a lovely old building with very friendly staff. There are several good places to visit such as Ross on Wye, Monmouth and Gloucester. We also visited tbe beautiful church of St. Mary's in Fownhope for their flower festival, which was an absolute delight. Three small negatives regarding the cottage. I have a very limited diet so take all my own food on holiday and there is no cupboard in the small kitchen to store food. A good fridge freezer and cooker and everything else one needs but a food cupboard would help. The shower would gradually fill with water because the hair trap needed cleaning. And Cinderford is a narrow, hilly town so driving can be difficult and finding the cottage on arrival was a bit difficult but was overcome by phoning the owner. Don't let it put you off though as the small garden is ideal for relaxing in and it has beautiful views.

  We found the property to be very cosy and clean.

  It was very well appointed having everything you would need for a lovely break away. The power shower was the best we have ever experienced. The little extras such as the ciders, water bottles, milk, tea, coffee and biscuits were also a bonus. The little extras for the dog, such as, a chew, dog biscuits, poo bags, toys and a bed, were also an added bonus. The location was great, being a short drive to various attractions and walks within the Forest of Dean. We had a lovely meal in the White Hart Inn just down the road from the property. Finally, the owner Jeremy, greeted us warmly and made sure we understood how to operate all the appliances, such as the SkyQ box, heating and oven, etc. All in all, we had a great stay and would highly recommend it.Thank you.

  Where to start?

  The annex is so well thought through with everything you could possibly need, even our 2 dogs were catered for with treats and toys to play with. It has a very safe outside space so you can relax knowing that your furbabies can't wonder off. It also has sky TV and movies for in the evenings after a long day exploring. It's within 5mins drive to a beautiful aboretum that you can leave your dogs of lead to run free but safe. There are pubs around but we didn't make it out in the evenings to tired! We did visit Tintern Abbey and there was a beautiful family-friendly and dog friendly pub there also in the little village craft centre. Anyway we would definitely stay with Helen and Jeremy again as they're brilliant hosts who even left us Cider and welsh cakes!

  The Old Swill House is a great place to stay while visiting the surrounding area.

  It appears to date back to 1753 and has been respectfully restored and then well equipped. It was a very comfortable base for 2 adults, 1 child and a dog. The hosts Victoria & Martin, were amazing. Victoria gave us flowers and fresh salad from their garden and was available if required. What was particularly nice was Victoria spending time with our daughter chatting about the farm. It is a working farm but during our visit it was very quiet. If you can, try to arrange to visit the hosts private garden, it's wonderful. We definitely recommend this property. The Foxham which is a short walk away from the cottage is also well worth a visit.

  The Old Swill house was a very comfortable stay for us and the dog, we had a really great week.

  I loved the feeling of space with the amazing high ceiling and stone floors. Very warm and cosy which is just what you need in February. Spotlessly clean with gorgeous comfortable beds and seating. Very convenient for visiting lots of nearby interesting dog friendly places. Victoria was a lovely host, checking in on us and delivering a lovely flower arrangement from her garden. I loved it when the chickens stopped by and the sound of the cows. It’s a working farm so dogs need to be on leads and children need to be supervised as there is no enclosed outdoor space. It’s a really beautiful setting, I wouldn’t hesitate to return!
