    I have marked down slightly for facilities because of the stairs. They are very narrow and steep to climb.

    Spacious rooms. Listening to the birds singing in the garden and an Owl hooting at night was just lovely. Weather wasn't great at first but there were plenty of board games and DVDs to keep us entertained during the bad weather.

    Could do with a set of gates to secure the garden as you are on main road.

    Very spacious and comfortable. Good size garden. Kitchen was fully equipped. Private parking

    Drive is a bit narrow but we got the hang of it. Stairs are narrow and a bit steep. Fine for us but could be a problem for people with mobility issues.

    Clean, comfortable, kitchen was very well equipped so we ate there every night as had our young dog with us. Pub next door very friendly and food looked amazing. We would definitely return

    Stairs to go up to bedrooms were very narrow, small step footings and very steep. Even though the stairs were carpeted, our dog had to sleep downstairs as she couldn’t manage to go up or down the stairs. People with mobility issues may not have an easy time getting up/down as well.

    Very clean, well furnished, charming, well stocked and had all thoughtful homely touches. Wood burning fireplace stove, TV with DVDs/streaming and WiFi great! Kitchen is large and there was one full size fridge-freezer and one small fridge. It had everything needed to cook meals and dishwasher made washing up a breeze. Master bedroom was large and spacious with comfortable good sized bed. Second bedroom was comfortable too. Bathroom and large tub with shower was great! Pet friendly was a plus!!

    The staircase is quite steep (we're in our seventies!) and there was a leak in the conservatory.

    Silhouette Cottage is just as lovely as it looks in the photos and the location is perfect for exploring the Forest of Dean. There is literally everything you need in the cottage. The garden is really lovely, lots of trees and shrubs full of birdsong. The White Horse is practically at the end of the drive and you are guaranteed good food, local beer and a warm welcome. Very dog friendly!

    This was our 3rd stay at the cottage. It is a beautiful cottage and has everything you could want. Its lovely to sit outside and watch the birds in the garden. It's a short drive from Coleford where there are several small supermarkets. It's around 15 minutes drive to some of the main attractions in the Forest such as Cannop ponds and cycle hire, Beechenhurst and the Arboretum.

    Excellent and well-equipped cottage. Lovely woodburner and all you could want for a comfortable stay. Really close to lots a places to see - historical architecture (Tintern Abbey and the Three Castles etc.) and nice small towns - and good walks. The weather was obligingly mild and we even sat out in the garden with a glass of wine every evening.

    Having to leave!

    What a lovely place to stay! Loved having a conservatory to eat in looking out at the birds and trees. Well equipped kitchen, lovely and clean throughout, beautiful big garden, loos upstairs and downstairs is handy. The location is spot on, very quiet even though its by the main road. Lovely walks and a pub a 2 minute walk that serves some of the best food we've had in a pub! Perfect holiday.

    Not a dislike but just a warning for anyone planning to stay with children or elderly, the stairs indoors and outdoors are very steep and narrow but the whole house is perfect regardless just take care

    Beautiful house with everything you need! Quiet location very suitable for a group of adults. We were able to easily get to local activities including paddle boarding and visiting puzzlewood. Enjoyed a visit to the local pub and had some perfect cosy nights in.
