About this cottage rental

The Old Tump House is a lovingly renovated 18th century cottage overlooking the Forest of Dean. All rooms have lovely views over the adjacent orchard and towards the Forest.

The cottage has an open-plan kitchen, dining and lounge area. There is seating for 6 around the dining table and in the summer you can enjoy eating outside on the patio/barbecue area. In the winter you can cosy up on the four-seater sofa and bean bags around the log burner.

If you need a large lounging space with a six-seater sofa then the property probably won't suit your needs - please look at the photos to make sure you're happy with the seating arrangement.

The local pub is within walking distance and there are great attractions nearby. The peaceful location and fantastic local attractions will suit people wanting to recharge or make the most of the great outdoor activities on offer. The owners and their young family live in the adjacent house so are on hand for any advice or should you need anything. Should we be away, we can easily contacted by telephone.

Beautiful cottage in a lovely, peaceful location right next to the forest. Equipped with everything you could need, and a lovely welcome hamper even though we were just staying a couple of nights to break up a long journey. The owners were welcoming and helpful living right next door, but without intruding on our privacy. Very comfortable beds, very clean, and very cosy with the lovely wood burner lit. Love the area, and would certainly return.

The Old Tump house was an excellent nase for us to explore the Forest of Dean. The hosts were excllent - early communication of ideas and things ti do in the area and Fay came and introduced herself on our first night, and we were able to pick her brains for things to do and places to eat! The house itself was well kept, excellent sized bedrooms all with en-suites and came with everything we needed for our stay.

From beginning to end, this was one of the easiest trips I've ever booked.We arrived at the cottage to find a beautiful welcome hamper filled with thoughtful treats, which was such a lovely touch. The house itself is stunning — we truly didn’t want to leave.It was incredibly well-equipped with everything we could possibly need. The beds were very comfortable, and we all slept soundly during our stay.Both the children and our dog had a fantastic time, and we especially enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and the use of the outdoor space.The hosts were great — friendly, helpful, and available if we needed anything (which we didn’t!).The whole place felt warm and welcoming, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book again.

This is a proper gem! The owners (& their Animal companions) live onsite & were really welcoming, the cottage itself is beautiful in & out, surrounded by the forest, so, so peaceful but close to pubs, shops, restaurants etc. Each bedroom has it's own bathroom & the kitchen is well equipped.We were in the area specifically to visit Puzzle Wood, about 20mins away. A magical place, well worth a visit.Thank you Fay for a wonderful stay.We hope to be back soon

Lovely weekend away with some lads to escape the city. With a bit of furniture rearranging, car Jenga, and sharing one of the doubles, we all fit in well with a log fire going in the evenings. Toilet flush pressure needed some working out. Great overall and would recommend. Weather was gray.

We had a lovely stay in The Old Tump House. The cottage was beautiful, well equipped and in a lovely location, convenient for trips to Symonds Yat, Tintern Abbey, Monmouth, Ross, etc. Faye was really helpful and very responsive both before and during our stay. We would certainly book again if visiting the area in future.

Lovely stone cottage just a few yards from the Forest of Dean with all the facilities you would expect of a family home. Welcoming owners and very comfortable. The only disappointment was that we didn't spot any of the wild boar.

If you’re looking for somewhere to get back to nature, or be adventurous- but still want all the home comforts, then this is it. Beautiful well equipped cottage, lovely welcoming hosts and the Forest is right on your doorstep - and very comfy beds to fall into at the end of each busy day. Our first visit to this area and we have loved what it has to offer. Forest and river walks, Go Ape, Canoeing and Puzzlewood, a week is just not long enough! We’ll be coming back for more I’m sure

The cottage is in a beautiful location backing onto a small apple orchard and overlooking the Forest. It's easily accessible from the road and well signed. The interior is beautifully laid out, spacious and inviting. The outside area is perfect for a bbq or breakfast to enjoy the fresh air and views. Fay was a very friendly and accommodating host and answered all questions really promptly and thoroughly. A fantastic break.

There isn't much more to say except that everything about this property was exceptional. We didn't want to leave! Fay was incredibly helpful, taking the time to welcome us and to give us a good rundown on the area. The cottage was very clean, and we had no problems with check-in or check-out. One of the best places we've ever stayed.

We enjoyed our time in Blakeney. The cottage was clean and tidy and was equipped for 6. The bedrooms were spacious and the bright and airy. We did find the sofa seating area limited, it only sat 3 or 4 and was not particularly comfortable. Despite that, it was a good place to stay and recommend it.

Attractive, quiet cottage in beautiful countryside. Very comfortable and clean with modern bathrooms but still full of character. It would have helped to have had a postcode and detailed instructions on how to find the cottage, but apart from that it was excellent.

We had a great few days staying in this pretty cottage with a friendly welcome from Fay and her family. The cottage had everything we needed and was well laid out so we felt we had plenty of space when rain forced us to retreat indoors. All the rooms are nicely decorated, beds are comfortable, the three en suite bathrooms (luxury, with three daughters to accommodate) are great and everything is very clean. With just a few minutes walk we were on footpaths in the Forest of Dean itself. Definitely recommended

Beautiful spot surrounded by apple blossom

Beautiful spot surrounded by apple blossom

The cottage occupies a surprising spot and offers a lovely retreat especially in spring when the meadow around it is full of blossom. A well equipped kitchen and extremely comfortable beds were particularly welcome. The cottage is decorated in a stylish and very tasteful way which we loved. Local walks were delightful particularly along the Wye valley. We confidently recommend this place.

This is a lovely cottage, spotlessly clean and beautifully furnished. The basket of milk bread and other goodies on arrival was very welcome. The owner greeted us on arrival, and helped settle us in and answered any questions. The property is in a great position for exploring the area. I have no hesitation in recommending this property, as we had a most enjoyable stay here.

Lovely home in a beautiful setting

Had a great week in the Forest of Dean. The old tump house is located on the edge of the forest with a beautiful backdrop of trees. It is really well presented with 3 large bedrooms all en suite and a kitchen, dining and living room all combined. All the attractions are no more than 30 minutes drive from the house. The village where the house is located is small but Lydney is 10 minutes drive away and has all the amenities needed. Thanks to Faye and family for your kind hospitality.
