The Owls' Hoot

KathrynRating, 5 stars5 days ago

The Owl’s Hoot is lovely, it’s modern and has great decor. The garden is well presented with a hot tub and lots of outdoor seating. Set in a beautiful location. Plenty of things to do nearby. Maureen was a great host, very friendly and responded to any questions we had promptly. I like how she made the effort to see us as we were leaving to ask how our stay was. We made a couple suggestions for improvement which she willingly took on board. Highly recommend and definitely will return in the future! Thank you for a great stay :-)

Secret Escape to the Forest

AmandaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

What a fabulous Bolthole this was. It exceeded expectations. Set right on the border of England & Wales, in beautiful surroundings. We had the chance to explore the Forest of Dean through a little secret gateway on the premises. The hut itself was beautifully designed, with a lively en suite shower room with piping hot water. The bed was very comfy and it felt incredibly cosy. There are two hot tubs right by the huts for you to use. It was a little nippy for us but would definitely book them if we returned. There is also a log burning fire inside the hut which was so lovely to have in the evening as it got cooler. If you fancy a bbq, bring along some coals as there is a mini BBQ available for each hut too. We spent a few hours in the local pub, just 5 mins walk up the hill, great food and service. Finally the morning after, we headed into the local town to the coffee shop for a fabulous breakfast run by the family here. All in all a very pleasant stay! Would recommend! Thanks

The Field Snug

IanRating, 5 stars1 week ago

Thanks Claire for a cosy property. Well sited for walking and cycling in the forest. Enjoyed the sunsets and eating in the garden. Easy to park and offload our bikes. Loved the free range eggs from your hens and the beautiful flowers from your garden. Your recommendations for tea and cakes in Deans Forest Cycles, Parkend was spot on, as was dinner at the Woodman. We'd definitely stay again.
