This cottage really hits the spot-super comfy and stocked with everything you'd need for a self-catering stay! Perfect location for exploring Gloucester, the Forest of Deanand nearby areas. The hot tub was a lovely bonus!
David
We had a lovely stay at this cosy little annex attached to the owners' bungalow. The place is modern and well-furnished, with a private garden for relaxing. Parking was secure behind electric gatesand the view of the Severn Valley was truly stunning. Although we didn’t use the hot tub, it was a nice touch. Great value overall!
Elizabeth
We had a lovely stay here, perfect for exploring the area’s many activities. Sadly, our walking disabilities meant we couldn’t fully enjoy everything, which was a bit disappointing. Still, the owners were so friendly and accommodating, making us feel very welcome. The location is great for adventuresand the place itself is quite comfortable. We’d definitely recommend it to anyone able-bodied looking for some fun. Also, the White Hart pub nearby serves a cracking hearty meal!

The cottage was lovely, really cosy with a hot tub that’s perfect for unwinding. We loved how private it feltand the views when heading to the local pub are simply stunning! Would definitely come back.

We had a lovely weekend at River View! The location is perfect, right next to the forest, which we enjoyed exploring on bikes and on foot. The owners were really friendly but didn't bother us at all. Definitely a place we'd come back to!

We had a lovely stay at the Riverview Hideaway for our minimoon. It really felt like a home from home after a busy week planning the wedding. The place was spotless and had everything we needed. The owners were super friendly and made us feel welcome, which was great. We especially enjoyed relaxing in the spa. Definitely planning to come back for longer next time to explore more around the area. Would absolutely recommend! Thanks a lot!!!

We had a lovely stay here! The peaceful trails and plenty of sights nearby made it perfect for a relaxing walk. The only thing missing was a pub within walking distance, but honestly, the hot tub more than made up for it-really helped us unwind after a day out. Would definitely return!
James Carter
We had a lovely stay at The Away. Phil and Elaine were so friendly and made us feel right at home. The prosecco and chocolates were a nice touch-though we did eat them all! The week was a bit unusual with the Queen’s funeral, but sharing those moments with Phil and Elaine made it special. We’d definitely come back!
Emma Clarke
Honestly, we had a fantastic stay! The place had everything we needed, plus some lovely extras like bubbly and chocolates which was a sweet surprise. Elaine and Phil were such warm hosts, going above and beyond-like offering to grab our takeaway. Only downside was wishing we could stay longer. Definitely recommend and we’re already planning to return!
Sam
Really enjoyed our stay, the hosts were fantastic and friendly.
Sam
The annex offers good privacy, though it’s lacking in view. It’s quite a trek to the shops, especially with the hill on the way back. Inside, it’s cosy and nicely arranged. Perfect for forest walks right outsideand there are some lovely attractions nearby for a day out. Definitely worth a stay!
Emma
The cottage was lovely, the hosts super friendlyand the setting really peaceful. Phil and Elaine made everything so easy. We're definitely returning!

We had a brilliant stay! The place was spotless, clearly cared forand felt quite new with all the modern fittings. Elaine and Phil were lovely hosts, really attentive and eager to help with anything we needed. It’s a cracking spot if you're planning to explore the Forest of Dean and nearby areas. Honestly, we couldn't have asked for a better holiday base. Definitely recommend it for a relaxing getaway!

Emma
Elaine and Phil really made our stay special, welcoming us warmly. The place was stunning, with an incredible view that we couldn’t get enough of. They surprised us with prosecco and chocolates, which was a lovely touch. We enjoyed them in the hot tub - honestly, best Valentine’s Day ever! Plus, their local tips were a big help.
Jamie
The house was lovely, really cosy and well-kept. The village is super peaceful and beautiful, perfect if you're after quiet scenery. The only thing I’d say is the TV feels a bit outdatedand we were hoping for a bit more nearby to explore. Owners are genuinely lovely though!
Emma Clarke
We really enjoyed our time at Riverview. The setting is perfect-quiet and calming. The hot tub was just what we needed after a long day. Hosts were lovely, definitely recommend! Would stay again.
