Columbine Cottage

Host very efficient, helpful and friendly. The cottage well situated, clean warm good facilities.

Nothing all was good

Cosy, quirky cottage. Location was excellent. Parking at front of house.

Drive and parking were quite tight. Garden was not enclosed for dogs.

its rare nowadays to stay in such a well equipped and comfy place so it was a joy to stay here. It was spotlessly clean and homely. I think owners should be made to stay in there own rentals for at least a weekend just to see all the things that are absent or dont work etc

its a personal preference.....i dont like scented washing powder. The real fresh smell of clean linen far outweighs a chemical ly induced sickly sweet smell of lavender etc

Excellent location. The town is within a few minutes walk. Lots of shops, eateries and pubs within walking distance. Also plenty of country walks accessible on foot without having to drive anywhere first. Within a 10 - 5 minute drive you can access the Forest of Dean and explore King Arthur caves and the site where the TV series Merlin was filmed. Gloucester, Cheltenham and Cotswolds are all just a short drive away too.

The inside of the cottage is quite dated and it did smell damp and musty on entering. Some of the glasses and cutlery were dirty and the towels had an odd smell too. Downstairs the electric fire in the lounge warms the cottage lovely and there are electric heaters upstairs in both bedrooms. The mattresses on the beds aren't the comfiest. The cold tap on the bath doesn't run and so if you run a bath you have to use the shower to cool it down.
