Wonderful short break in the Forest on the green, shared with the grazing sheep and chickens! Property superb and all as listed with the owner extremely personable and attentive and could not do enough for us when we arrived late on a Sunday looking for dinner! We would have no hesitation in recommending this cosy cottage as a great base for your adventures in the Forest of Dean and the Wye Valley and we look forward to returning again one day.

The house felt like being at home, cosy and comfortable, Jane and her husband made feel welcome, as did the neighbours who walked past. Quiet, relaxing location and ideal centre for many local attractions.Will miss the hens and sheep!!!

It was a great stay in a perfect cottage in a quiet part of Bream. Fully equipped kitchen with all the essentials and more. No dishwasher, but that was quite okay. Great beds. The free roaming sheep and the chicken were a nice extra. Jane, the host is very welcoming and knowledgeable about the area and the best places to go to. It is tucked away in a corner of Gloucestershire, but has some great walks in the beautiful Forest of Dean.

Easy to find and such a warm welcome. A beautiful cottage with everything you need. Whether you while away the hours watching the chickens foraging and dustbathing from the front garden, or enjoy the lovely walks from the doorstep, it is a wonderful location for a week away ..or longer.. as there is so much to see and do and the cottage is perfectly placed to explore. It was a priority, having dogs, that there were lots of shady walks nerar-by, we were not disappointed! The Colliers Trail explored Mallards Pike, Cannop Ponds, Speech House Lake and the Sculpture trail. Had a lovely meal at the Miners Arms, and some nice fish n chips from the local. Jane couldn't have done more for us. Such a lovely host. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us!

The cottage, next door to the owner is a lovely property with constant sunshine in the private garden from sunrise to sunset. As we stayed during hot weather we took advantage of the BBQ.The stairs are rather steep.The host was very friendly and ensured our stay was comfortable.The location is lovely with a common in front, our neighbours comprised of many sheep and chickens freely wandering around, which enhanced our experience and as the community is quite small, their friendly inclusive attitude made us feel very much at home.It's a great location for visiting many attractions and local grown produce is readily available at farmers markets, Taurus centre etc. There are a number of pubs in the area with a few within walking distance. The food at these pubs is good too.Would highly recommend this lovely friendly location, tucked away in Lydney

We had a lovely few days at the cottage. It was comfy and cosy and had everything we needed.Jane and Malcolm were lovely, friendly and had lots of free range hens, who our son fell in love with! Perfectly situated for walks or bike rides in the forest, which was literally just out the front door! Just lovely!

Lovely cosy cottage in a great location. Central to be able to visit so many other locations. Clean and comfortable. With everything you will ever need for a perfect stay. Was great to wake up with the sheep and chicken roaming freely on the common right outside the cottage gates. Grandchildren loved to see them. Jane and Malcolm couldn’t do enough for us to make our stay enjoyable. Thank you both for the fresh blue eggs.Will definitely go back. Thank you both. .

We were very lucky to make the most of the wonderful weather to explore the area (so many stunning places including Tyntesfield, or Woodchester Park).We had a great stay, very peaceful and private.Thank you!

The most comfortable cottage we have ever stayed at! Log burner is fantastic but very warm heating too so with the comfy lounge furniture it was hard not to relax! Location is perfect for walking with the forest literally 50metres away. Cottage very well equipped. The lovely owner Jane is next door if needed but left us alone to relax throughout the stay.We will be back for Christmas next year hopefully! Thankyou Jane, fabulous break from start to finish!

Great little cosy cottage in a good location. Real log fire in lounge but also has central heating. Stairs are bit on the steep side but then you get that in cottages of this age . Walks just outside your door ( as well last chickens!) Everything you need for a nice stay . Would recommend to anyone wanting a peaceful stay.

Lovely peaceful rural property. Very comfortable lots of little touches which we appreciated. Hosts couldn't have been nicer. I was surprised to find it was a downstairs bathroom as i hadnt noted it on the description. I bit tricky for those of us who need to go at night! However it didnt spoil our stay. The dogs loved watching the animals on the common.and easy access to woodland. Will definitely be returning

Super helpful host living just next door and the property is in a lovely location - free range chicken and sheep!! Great base to travel round the area. Really enjoyed our stay

We had a great weekend at Oakdene it’s a quaint , quirky cottage in lovely surroundings . Waking up in the morning looking out over the hills and forest is fab. The cottage has all the basics required, it’s not super modern but it is cosy and comfortable and on the doorstep for all the Forest of Dean has to offer for mountain biking and walking . Jane and Malcolm are great host and make you really welcome. We loved going out in the morning and seeing the local sheep on the green and the chickens from next door. The only 2 points I would make are if you have trouble with stairs or a downstairs bathroom is an issue then the property may not be for you. Great garden out the back, sun trap in the afternoon.

It's a cosy cottage build in 1892. Don't expect a modern look , it's old with a modern touch. We stayed a fortnight here and it was a pretty homecoming base. Jane is a wonderful host and can't do enough for you.

We spent Thurs-Mon in Jane and Malcolm’s lovely cottage. The location is incredible and we were blessed with some fantastic weather! The cottage had everything we needed. The sheep and chickens outside are brilliant and our little one had so much fun watching them. Our dog has been on some incredible walks in the woods on the doorstep and at some of the tourist areas nearby. We’ve had such an amazing stay and can’t that Jane enough for being a wonderful host!
