We throughly enjoyed a long weekend here, the house is well equipped and very nicely furnished with space for all 6 of our adult family. Kitchen had all the essential items and plenary of space for everyone to sit at the table . The Hot Tub was a lovely bonus after our days out. Zoe and James are great hosts and answered all questions and sent lots of information about the area so we could plan before arriving. We give it 5 Stars.

We had a lovely long weekend stay in this property. It was clean and well stocked with everything that we required as a group of 6. Our two kids had plenty of space and loved the garden! Comfy beds, great hot tub and easy communication throughout would definitely stay again if we are in the area. Only downside was that there was a lack of amenities within easy walking distance with toddlers but we had a car so wasn’t a massive problem and probably would be fine for adults!

We had a lovely short stay at this fantastic holiday home. The accommodation was very clean and well stocked with everything you will need. Ted (cocker spaniel) loved his toy and the added bonus of having dog food/water bowls was great! Our teenage girls loved the breakfast bar and comfy stools and couldn't keep them out of the hot tub!!
The cottage is situated near the forest of Dean which was perfect for what we wanted. The hosts were fantastic with sending all the details of our trip and it was lovely to have a list of local dog friendly places to eat. Highly recommend The Red Hart Inn! I will be recommending this place to family and friends and hope to visit here again. Thank you Zoe and James.

Beautiful cottage and a good size very clean and tidy. There was everything u could want or need. Kitchen was beautiful and was well equipped. Bath was a good size. Comfy beds and pillows we slept very well. Lovely kept enclosed garden my dog loved. Short walk through the church to a lovely pub and food was fab. U are within minutes of the Forest of Dean you can see the dence trees from the home. We visited mallards pike symonds yat lots of lovely places near by. Host was brilliant kept us updated and lots of information on everything the home pubs trips etc so we didn’t miss out. The absolute bonus after a walk and first thing in the morning was the beautiful hot tub. We highly recommend 😀😀

Brilliant holiday home in the most peaceful setting, the hot tub was a huge bonus and we made the most of it whilst we were there. The kitchen is really well equipped and the beds were comfy. Only small issue was the upstairs shower's temperature gauge had broken so we had to use the downstairs shower room, which we didn't mind. We bought our two dogs and there was plenty of space with an enclosed garden so they could roam. We would definitely stay here again, Zoe and James were great hosts and they lived nearby so were able to pop by when we had a query with the hot tub. Thank you again for a lovely break, we are sad to be home!

Family Stay
Peaceful location, handy for visits to Sculpture Trail and lake. Not far from Symonds Yat and canoeing base, and Ross on Wye. Sunny garden, right up until sunset, with table and chairs for outdoor meals. People spent ages in the hot-tub. Owners nearby for any problems.

We stayed for a weekend for a 40 somethings girls get together. The house exceeded our expectations, the kitchen was fantastic and had everything we needed. The beds were comfy and all bedding looked new.
The whole place was spotlessly clean.
Location was excellent, walking distance into the forest of Dean and so many fantastic walks.
The hot tub was a little extra that we all appreciated after a 6mile walk.
Thank you Zoe and James
