Lydbrook Cottage is delightful. Spacious, comfortable and stylishly decorated. All the rooms are airy and bright. The outdoor space is cleverly arranged. The house is on quite a steep hill but there are two ways to access it, either up a drive or steps which run alongside the property. It sits in a quiet village, that has a shop, pub and fish & chiRead morep shop. Lots of beautiful walks are easily accessible with lots of public footpaths in the surrounding the area. A lovely stay - 10 out of 10! Hide

This was our second stay at the property. Such a home from home. The Forest of Dean and Wye Valley are easily accessible for long or short walks. We will be back again.

Lydbrook cottage was charming, spacious and tasteful, well-equipped and comfortable. The descriptions and pictures do not do it justice. Would not recommend it to anyone who struggles with steps or slopes but otherwise wonderful.

Beautiful cottage, with the perfect decoration, every tiny detail is worth admiring. Location is great in Dean forest and wye valley not far from the bracon beacon and Big pit mine. Plenty of nice walks, even from the cottage through the fields. We had amazing vacation and our teenage kids really enjoyed it too.

Lovely girls weekend in Lydbrook cottage - very comfortable and stylish home. Gorgeous evenings in front of fire chatting and catching up. Comfortable beds, fabulous shower and great location to get out and do things. We went to Gloucester quays and new hunt tack shop on Saturday and did Go Ape and lunch out on Sunday. Would recommend!
