A very clean and comfortable property, tastefully decorated and furnished, providing an excellent base from which to explore the Forest of Dean. We paid extra to hire a hot-tube which was enjoyed by us all. The grounds are spacious and lovely too. The fresh cakes that greeted our arrival were delicious!
For those not used to living with traffic noise, the proximity to the busy, main road may be an issue, but we're used to it so it did not bother us too much.
The owners were lovely and left us to it, while being close on hand had we needed them. Tracey was highly communicative in the run up to our holiday. Thanks to both Tracey and David - you have a lovely holiday home for all to enjoy.

Tracey and David have a fabulous couple of cottages set in beautifully well kept gardens. The cottage we stayed in was super clean and had everything we needed. The hot tub was a fabulous addition.
The extra treats were the icing on the cake (excuse the pun!).

There’s so much to like about this property. First of all we received a very warm welcome from Tracey in particular with a delicious home made cake and some nice local products. The cottage itself is very spacious, clean and is very beautifully decorated. The beds were one of the very best we ever had. With our family we had such an enjoyable and relaxing time especially because there is so much to do in the close neighbourhood of the property. We particularly enjoyed the walk to May Hill with its amazing views. We really would like to come back!!!

My husband and myself, along with two friends have had an excellent stay at Mill Cottage. The cottage is extremely comfortable and cosy, with all of the facilities that you need for an enjoyable stay. The beds were very comfortable! The wood burner also a big plus. All finishing touches excellent! It is set in very pretty grounds and located in an ideal area for exploring The Forest of Dean. We also visited the nearby Symonds Yat which was lovely. The owners are a stones throw away and they are very welcoming and friendly people without being at all obtrusive. We wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Mill Cottage and plan to return sometime in the future!
