Farmstay vacation rentals in Forest of Dean District

Perfect stay. Had everything you needed in a great location. Would highly recommend!

Hosts were really helpful, kind and accommodating. The grounds were well kept and the view was beautiful to wake up to in the morning, we even had the privilege of seeing the baby ducklings near the pond. The cabin was really clean, everything had a place, facility’s had lovely additional touches such as fresh milk, cake, salt & pepper. We felt really well looked after. Couldn’t beat the location, we visited puzzle wood, Forest of Dean and an independent cafe in Gloucestershire. We also used the BBQ on the first night which was a great touch. Can’t recommend this stay enough, we were sad to leave and hope to be back soon!

Clare's cottage was perfect for our stay. It was very comfortable, with a well equipped kitchen. The location is just fantastic for exploring the wonderful valley with all it's natural wonder, and coming home to a warm fire was great.

The photos don't do justice to the beautiful cottage and the lovely views from both the living room as well as the bedroom. The place offered lots of privacy with well kept garden around the cottage for our use. It comes with all amenities as exactly as described and was a perfect place to be away to unwind and be with the nature. The other big benefit is that it is located centrally to most of the attractions or places of interest within the Cotswolds area. So you can venture to any of those areas and be back to rest and relax at this beautiful place. We really enjoyed our stay there and would highly recommend this place if you are planning to visit Cotswolds area.

David and Jacqui were very welcoming and friendly which was so lovely and unexpected. They clearly really enjoy meeting people. David was a great communicator and gave me excellent directions to find the property. It is in a beautiful peaceful location. I'm just sorry I couldn't stay longer to go on some of the local walks. Thank you for your warm welcome

We had a gorgeous stay at Fleet Cottage. Such a lovely setting - we enjoyed a sunny breakfast outside looking at the views and amazing walking nearby at the Malvern Hills. The cottage is well equipped and the bed linens were very high quality. Jacqui was a very friendly and helpful host. I’m sure we will be back.

Traceys place is a fantastic cottage to base yourself to explore the Forest of Dean. A short drive to the main visitor centres and several walks available from the door. Lovely little place to come back to after being out exploring for the day, it's perfect for couples. The garden isn't secure, but they do have a ground spike with a long line on (or another cottage with a fenced garden). There is also a meadow field which is great to take your dog up to. Tracey and Dave were lovely hosts with what was probably the most comprehensive recommendations email we have ever had.

Graham and Pip’s place is a real gem, the accommodation is gorgeous. In beautiful surroundings, with wonderful wildlife to enjoy, fabulous walks on your doorstep, a place of calm and serenity. So many places to visit are within easy driving reach, whatever your preferred activity there are mountains, canals and rivers to enjoy and there’s no shortage of options for good food. Graham is a lovely host, helpful and welcoming, he makes you feel at home right away. We would love to stay here again.

Fantastic stay here for our “mini moon” after getting married on the Friday. A great location out in the country with lovely views, very peaceful. Andy’s recommendation for Sunday lunch and the Walwyn Arms is backed up by us, incredible food! Lovely location, we plan to come back

Very comfortable, spacious and well equipped it felt like a home! Charley and Grace were friendly and responsive hosts and we loved the welcome pack. There are lovely walks in the area and it is convenient to get to Symonds Yat, Puzzlewood, the sculpture park and other places by car. Thanks for a lovely stay :)

My wife and I stayed here for a portion of an overall longer trip. This was by far our favorite stay. A beautiful place just as described, with easy access to the surrounding community. We will be back if we get the chance.

This little oasis is the perfect place. Georgie and co make you feel so welcome, and you get the joy of meeting Pumpkin and Pepper the cat. The walks around are stunning, but with the views from the hammocks you struggle to get out for the walks at times. Beyond peaceful and with beautiful towns near by. I wouldn’t want to stay anywhere else in the area.

Clive and Debra were very accommodating guests. Even though me and my partner arrived later in the day, Clive was very helpful and still showed us around. The location is lovely, tranquil and the view is just superb. I was looking for a quiet weekend getaway for us and Goshawk lodge did not disappoint. The furnishings are modern and unique and the kitchen was well stocked with the essentials, more than can be said for many other places we have stayed. 5 stars, would recommend to anyone wanting to get away from the noise of life.

Our 3rd time at the Old Stables. Great location, great home and great hosts! Already booked back in for our 4th visit. Would highly recommend this property, over any others in the area, a beautiful peaceful outlook and a warm and comfortable home. Thanks Gillian & Martin

I stayed here recently and honestly, it was perfect. The place was spotless and so spacious, with stunning high ceilings, loads of natural light, and a really calm, welcoming vibe. The open-plan layout made it feel really luxurious but still cosy and homely. The garden was such a dream—completely private, beautifully kept, and the view from the hot tub at sunset was unreal. I could’ve stayed out there for hours just soaking it all in (literally!). Bonus points for the adorable ducks wandering around too. Inside, everything felt fresh and high quality, especially the bathroom—it had both a big walk-in shower and a gorgeous freestanding bath, which was such a treat. I also loved waking up to those big windows and the peaceful views. If you’re looking for somewhere relaxing, clean, and with loads of space to unwind, this is 100% it. I’d go back in a heartbeat.

As a frequent traveller, I found a gem 💎 beat accommodation iv stayed in best location best property it just is the best 👌

I would highly recommend the cottage, which is perfect if you’re looking for somewhere in a rural location, but which is easily accessible to all the amenities the Forest of Dean has to offer and near to Monmouth. Miranda welcomed us on arrival and was able to help with any queries we had, she was also available if we had any problems during our stay. We will definitely be returning.

Vicky and Ben were fantastic hosts, extremely welcoming, and very responsive and helpful, while also giving me the space to enjoy their wonderful Studio in my own company. I spent a very comfortable week at the Studio and found it a fantastic base for the family history research I was doing in central Worcester and in the various villages around Suckley and more broadly in the Malvern Hills. The Studio is spotlessly clean, is extremely well layed out and has everything you could want or need, while being very homely and easy to live in. The Studio setting is also very peaceful and although my week in Worcester was quite full I enjoyed relaxing in the private outside spaces mornings/evenings and taking in the marvellous views. My only regret is not having time to take one of the several local walks Vicky had recommended, along with her great suggestions for local pubs/restaurants etc. I happily recommend Vicky and Ben as hosts and their wonderful Studio as a fantastic place to stay!

Amazing lodge, most perfect getaway so peaceful and relaxing and it felt right at home! One of the best places I've stayed and the hosts were so friendly!! Would definitely recommend, the hot tub with the birds singing were beautiful and the comfiest sofas and great kitchen for homemade meals!!

A little piece of heaven. Just perfect for a few days of R&R. Although, the amount of walking we did there wasn’t much rest. The views from the balcony are something else, we somehow managed to lose 3 hrs sat there on our first afternoon. The location is perfect for getting on to the A40 and to further afield. We did not take advantage of the pool or saunas (which, now home feels like it was a wasted opportunity). The pool area is beautiful, and can see in the depths of summer being a real treat. From the booking Ruth was so helpful in giving us recommendations for where to visit and eat. Take the advice when it comes to The Angel Bakery in Abergavenny! It is out of this world. We throughly enjoyed our stay at the pavilion and hope to visit again.

Had a very enjoyable and relaxing stay. Amazing views! Very well appointed accommodation. Richard and Diana made us very welcome. Would certainly stay here again.

Lovely weekend stay at Elstar for us and our dog. A nice peaceful setting and lots of walks around the area, just what we were looking for

I had a fantastic stay at Waterloo Too. The cottage was clean, cozy, and well-equipped with everything needed. The location is peaceful and perfect for a relaxing getaway. Highly recommend—would definitely stay again!

Our 2nd stay, instantly relaxing, one of our favourite places, we had some lovely walks, at any time of day, so peaceful, relaxing in the hot tub after a long walk, perfect, everything about the place is just perfect for us, also a great location to explore all the beauty of the Forest of Deans walks and wildlife, look forward to our next visit
