Waterfront vacation rentals in Forest of Dean

Was a great place to stay located close to the main town and bay. Nice spot with a good view from the balcony.

The flat was everything my group needed. We stayed 2 nights and Charlotte very kindly allowed us to check in 4 hours earlier than the listing states. The flat is on the top floor of a complex, right in the centre of bristol. It had everything as advertised. Mentioned in the listing, was that the balcony was under construction and unusable. When we arrived this was still the case, however there is another balcony connected to the kitchen which helped us avoid disappointment for a morning coffee in the fresh air. It felt very safe, being in a complex, and was easily accessible 24/7. Charlotte mentions there being a chance of noise late at night, because of the proximity to bars, but it didn't bother us at all being 4 floors up. She was polite, friendly, and reachable by phone throughout our entire stay, answering my questions quickly. The flat is spacious but still cozy, with more than enough space for a party of 8 people. We were all very happy with our stay and we would stay again.

Lovely apartment just as shown in the pictures, great location really easy to access all the delights in Bristol.

What an incredible stay! This apartment on the harbour in Bristol was everything I hoped for and more. Perfectly located on Gasworks Lane, it offers a rare combination of tranquility by the water and the vibrant pulse of the city just steps away. Waking up to views of the harbour and the sound of boats gently moving outside felt like a peaceful escape right in the middle of urban life. The flat itself is modern, spotless, and beautifully styled – clearly designed with both comfort and aesthetics in mind. From the plush bed to the fully equipped kitchen and thoughtful touches throughout, it had everything I needed to feel right at home. I especially loved enjoying a glass of wine by the large windows overlooking the water after a day exploring the city. The location is unbeatable – close to bars, restaurants, cafes, and all the energy of central Bristol, yet still peaceful and safe. Whether you're in town for business or leisure, this spot makes the perfect base.

What I can find in the room is a beautiful bay view from the room, walkable to local shops and restaurants, plenty of parking spaces, good kitchen enough for simple cooking. This room is good for couple to stay.

Perfect spot for me travelling solo for a quick stay. Very easy to find, everything I needed, close enough to centre of town to meet friends, Rhys was great and very responsive.

Apartment was exactly as it was shown and described. Fantastic view and position perfect for us. Walk into the city along the river was pleasant and easy, likewise the bridge over to the lovely restaurants etc in the Bay. We will definitely book this apartment again when visiting Cardiff. Thank you Steven & Seki

The hosts were really responsive, friendly and helpful. I was granted a flexible stay after asking to drop my bag early which was a godsend as I was going to a festival before checking in and I couldn’t take my bag in to the site. The accommodation was comfortable, clean, very orderly and had lots of little extras, and having breakfast provided was very welcome. only advice I’d give is in terms of directions if you’re walking - go past all the even numbered houses that are on your right (just trees on your left) until the odd numbers start on your left as the road curves (it’s quite away until you get to the curve walking) - the accommodation is the first house you come to on your left. Don’t think you’re on the wrong road and head backwards!

It was a lovely place to stay. My dawg enjoyed people watching especially the ones walking their dawgs. Everything you needed plus a downstairs loo which I didn't know about.

Will & Amanda go above and beyond to make their guests stay wonderful. Check in was so easy with very detailed communication. They provided a lovely welcome book with info on the area, what’s to do, places to visit etc . The house was immaculate and very comfortable with everything you needed. The surroundings were super tranquil and just the perfect spot to relax with family. It was so lovely to simply sit and watch the wildlife outside and activity on the lake ❤️ Highly recommend for anyone wanting a relaxing getaway from a normally fast paced life. Thank you so much Will & Amanda…we will definitely be returning x

Beautiful property, spotlessly clean and well equipped. Set right on a very peaceful lake; was great siting on the desk watching the water sports. Easy to find and enter and good communication from the hosts. No faults at all.

We had a great time staying here as a family. It was chilled but also had loads to do in the area. The accommodation was lovely with beautiful views across the lake. We enjoyed watching the wildlife. We stayed in one of the dog friendly lodges and I was impressed with how secure it was. Everything was clean and as per the photos, the hosts were quick to respond and sent us a helpful guide book before our stay. Would highly recommend staying here and would definitely stay here again!

Thank you to Suzanne for an amazing stay. It was very relaxing, not just because of the location and surroundings, but also because Suzanne provided everything we needed to settle after a long journey. Although we didn’t formally speak, we felt you were there if we needed anything and always responded almost immediately. You provided a lot of useful information including maps for local walks, shops etc. We liked that fact that we could walk out of the lodge and immediately find walking routes in any direction. We also liked that the garden was secure, one of our dogs is a little excitable and it was reassuring to know that she could venture in to the garden without worrying about what she was up to! All amenities were perfectly functional and of good quality. Comfortable bed, nice bathroom with good shower too. Thank you for a lovely stay. I would recommend Suzanne’s place to anyone who likes long scenic walks, relaxing, and escaping their busy lives in a beautiful location.

what a stunning place, so clean and welcoming. beautiful linens and spotless. highly recommend and can't wait to book again!

Great location, just steps away from the lake. The jetty was right by the back door to get on to the lake easily.

We stayed for 2 lovely weeks in Kirk and Helen’s house. The location has a lot of supermarkets nearby and delivery is easily accessible. The accommodation was very neat and tidy. It had a lovely personal touch from the owners who care about their guests. Rooms were clean and the beds comfortable. It is a super cosy house and has some nice places to visit in Portishead. Also, very close to Bristol which was a big advantage. Would definitely recommend. Thank you Helen and Kirk for being very responsive and helpful hosts!

I had a birthday weekender with friends and the apartment is really lovely and suited us perfectly. Not just clean, but comfortable too with everything you need. The host is great and helpful. It all made the stay so much more enjoyable. 100% would recommend.

My sister and I throughly enjoyed our stay. Everything was clean throughout the property. Really comfy beds and the whole area was peaceful and so quiet. Sarah and Grant were both very welcoming. I can’t recommend them highly enough.

Lovely apartment super clean, good location and Tony was lovely so helpful. Will defo book again if we come to Cardiff

We enjoyed this apartment. It is very convenient to the city center and other attractions such as the Castle and National Museum. The host was very responsive to our communications and immediately worked to fix an issue we had with the apartment. The apartment is on a busy street but we did not have any issues with noise. We would stay here again.

Mark the host very helpful and Sue friendly and full of local info. Got to say after using AB&B for a few years this is one of the most attractive and comfortable we have stayed at. We spent a few days cycling and relaxing, local bus service conveniently available adjacent to the apartment. Local pubs a bit of a walk but food and drinks available at both. Look forward to staying again.

This location is exceptional ! we thoroughly enjoyed our visit, and returning to such a tranquil setting after our wedding was the perfect conclusion to a wonderful day. 🤍🫶

I loved this apartment & had been looking forward to my mid holiday break. I needed a break & had some work to catch up on & hoped this would be the perfect environment, it was. A quick walk to the shops for all I needed and the apartment had a great work workstation with monitor & keyboard. Vanessa had everything you could need but the flat still felt uncluttered. I loved the view. Very clean, & comfortable. I did get out sight seeing a few days & how lovely to return to the flat or walk around the water.

Second time I have stayed at Shona’s. Perfect place for what I need. I really like the apartment. Great spot sitting on the balcony looking at the river. I would just be careful of walking after dark especially if you are female.
