Keeper's Cottage - pet friendly, Forest of Dean

Escape to Keeper's Cottage, a hidden retreat on the edge of the forest where you feel as if you've entered another world. When you arrive you will want to immediately pull on your walking boots and head into the woodland. Sitting in the village of Viney Hill near Lydney you are within walking distance of The New Inn and just a short drive from Lydney where you'll find shops, pubs and a station for the heritage steam railway.

Encompassed by garden views, Keeper's Cottage embraces its surroundings. Two sitting rooms and a glorious conservatory let you choose where to spend your time whether you'd prefer to read or watch a film with the family. If you're staying in, the kitchen has everything you need and you can spend a long evening chatting and drinking wine beside the fire. Three bedrooms, two of which can be arranged as a twin or double, make this house an ideal choice for families. Children can have a bed each while couples can spread out in a super king-size bed. The whole house feels warm and welcoming letting you have a real break of rest and relaxation.

Stepping outside, the garden is a treasure trove of delights. Birds often twitter past and you may spot the woodcocks, goshawks and secretive owls in the evenings. Embracing rewilding the garden is an English cottage delight with native flowers coming to life each season. Explore the apple orchard beside the pond and bring out some loungers to the front lawn to catch some rays. This Forest of Dean haven will become a firm favourite year after year as you discover this magical area.

Kitchen/Diner
A traditional country kitchen sets the scene at Keeper's Cottage with its characterful blue touches and wooden dining table. You can hideaway here and cook up a storm for the whole group to enjoy together, inside or out.

Shower Room
At the end of the kitchen is one of the three bathrooms, this one has a shower with a rainfall head, WC and basin.

Living Room
Snug and cosy, the living room is a joy to curl up in. Comfortable sofas and a roaring wood burner make you feel at home so you can really relax and enjoy this peaceful spot. A selection of books are here for you to choose from, watch TV, or switch off and listen to the birds outside.
