River View Hideaway Reviews

Michele

Brilliant cottage. Cosy and well-equipped with all the very useful things that one needs in a self-catering place! Very well placed for Gloucester, Forest of Dean and surrounding area. Hot tub an added bonus.

Alan

A very pleasant stay in a modern, small, but nicely furnished annex to the owners' bungalow. A hot tub was available, although we didn't use it and there was also a self-contained garden. Parking for one car was secure behind electric gates and the view over the Severn Valley was fantastic. Very definitely value for money.

Maralyn

This is a wonderful place to stay if you want to indulge in the many and varied activities around the location As we are due to walking disabilities it was a shame we couldn't make the most of the property. The owners are really friendly and accommodating. The location is central to many beautiful adventures and the accommodation is very comfortablRead moree Would definitely recommend to able bodied seeking adventures The White Hart pub is recommended for a hearty meal Hide

Sarah

Lovely cottage and hot tub. We enjoyed our stay here. The hot tub is private and when you leave the cottage and walk to the local pub etc, the views are amazing.

Paul

We would highly recommend river view it sits in a lovely spot right next to the forest which we explored on bikes and foot the owners were lovely and didnt bother us but were always there if needed we had a great weekend Paul

Perfect stay for our minimoon. The Riverview Hideaway is like home from home. After a hectic weeks build up to our wedding it was just perfect for winding down. The accommodation is kept clean and tidy to a high standard and has everything you could need. The owners were friendly and welcoming ensuring we were comfortable and happy. We enjoyed a reRead morelaxing afternoon in the spa. We will definitely return for longer next time to explore more of the local area. Highly recommended. Thank you!!! Hide

Terance

I would highly recommend River View. Very comfortable and clean with everything you need, good car parking area and Elaine & Phil were perfect hosts.

Francis

An ideal getaway in one of the best equipped cottages we have stayed in. Hot tub was great for our weary bodies after a day exploring the area. The cottage is detached with a small lawned area and garden making for a very pleasant and peaceful place. There are plenty of things to see round about, we are members of the national trust so went mostly to their sites. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and would recommend this cottage wholeheartedly.

Jack

Great stay, great price, great location! Hot tub was lovely!!

Dominic

A great little place to unwind and relax, its also a good spot to access a lot of the surrounding sites. The hosts made our stay extremely pleasant and we would highly recommend it

My partner and I had a lovely stay at the away. Elaine and Phil were very welcoming and friendly.

Ideal cottage. Perfect location to explore Forest of Dean.

Russell

Overall an excellent facility for a quiet and peaceful walking break. Only down side was there was no pub within a reasonable walking distance. There are loads of places to visit, and walking trails, with a five to ten minute drive. The hot tub was a brilliant and made our evenings.

Raymond

We really enjoyed our stay in The away, Phil and Elaine were very helpful and most welcoming as was the prosecco and chocolates (sorry Phil we ate them all!). It was a strange week as started off with Our dear Queens funeral, it was good to share memories with Phil and Elaine. We would happily return in the future.

Jayne

Accommodation was superb, and had everything you could need and more! Bubbly and chocs was such a lovely touch and very much appreciated. Our hosts, Elaine and Phil, were so lovely. We really felt that nothing was too much troubleand they even offered to pick up a take away for us!! Our only complaint is that we werent staying for longer. Highly re commend and we will definitely be back.

Karen

Very comfortable and well equipped

Had a great week, feeling very relaxed. lovely hosts.

Terry

The annex is very private but there are no views. The walk to shops and amenities is definitely a mile + with a steep upward walk back. The accommodation is well laid out and very comfortable. Walks in the forest on the doorstep and other attractions not too long a ride away.

Stephen

Wonderful cottage, great hosts, very friendly and the surroundings are wonderful. Phil and elaine are amazing. We are definitely going back.

Matthew

Absolutely fantastic!! What a place, it was amazing. Everything was lovely and clean which showed how much care went into the property. The holiday home looked to be very newly refurbished as all of the fixtures and fittings looked like new. Elaine and Phil were perfect hosts and cant do enough to help with anything that you need. This is a perfect holiday destination if you want to explore the Forest of Dean and surrounding area.

Elaine and Phil were perfect hosts, the property and view was outstanding. They surprised us with prosecco and chocolates which was very kind and was enjoyed in the hot tub by myself and my partner - it was the best valentines day! They also had recommendations for food and places to visit which helped us with decision making.

Lovely property the only thing that lets it down is the tv is abit out dated and was in a very quiet village but beautiful village so if thats the scenery you are going for its perfect. I wanted a little bit more around the area. Owners are so lovely.

Thoroughly enjoyed our time away, accommodation was definitely 5 star, owners very helpful lots of information about local area and places to visit, owners made themselves available at any time if there was issues.
