Absolutely loved our break at the Old Chapel. Great communications with Doreen prior to arriving and the property itself was amazing. Lovely quiet location and was very comfortable, also a lot bigger than we were expecting. Highly recommend

The property was in an ideal location. Quiet yet only 10 minutes from a local town and 10 minutes from Forest of Dean. Easy to get to and easy to find. The property itself had everything we need, it was clean fully stocked and very comfortable. Host answered all our messages within minutes. Very happy overall and would recommend.

Doreen is delightful, very helpful and answers queries, questions very quickly…. Very nice lady. The Old Chapel was beautiful, cozy, homely and had everything that you could possibly need for your stay. So much thought has been put into the decor, the renters needs whilst away from home…. Such a wonderful experience. The description of the chapel was spot on and the wonderful wooded location was not exaggerated at all, we experienced, rabbits, squirrels, sheep literally just outside the doors….. we were able weather wise to sit outside and take it all in and savour the moments. The neighbours were friendly and informative also. We have been so taken up by this picturesque place that we have also booked up for a week in April 2024. Can’t come soon enough!

Doreen was an excellent host who communicated very well, prompt, helpful and incredibly friendly. The old chapel was heaven the only noise you heard when you woke was bird song. The level of comfort was far superior to anywhere else we have stayed. The old chapel was equipped with everything you needed and more including a folder with anything you needed to know and more. The neighbours are super friendly and everyone stop to chat. The surrounding area was beautiful and peaceful. If you want to go somewhere when life was more simple and unwind and relax then the old chapel is the place to go. It was the most amazing wonderful Christmas break.

We came across a few items while we were staying in the cottage . These are as follows . Cleanliness - bathroom shower plug was full of hair. - Quite dusty in places Bathroom mirror was dirty - Tap in kitchen was dirty - Metal in bathroom had scum on - Rusty Mirrors - Dirty bathroom shelf - Rusty bath plug - When bath was turned on black rust came out of it. Kitchen Kitchen cupboard when you come in stinks of damp. The cutlery stinks of damp. It put me of cooking as it really badly smells. I had to wash cutlery before I used as it smells Out of date complementary biscuits. - the biscuits that were provided were 2 months out of date. 2 went off in June and 2 went off in July. The milk that was in the basket was also out of date. My partner had a biscuit and cup of tea with the milk and the biscuit and had a bad belly the next day. He didn't realize until he checked date next day ( I have pics of biscuits out of date) I messaged the host when we got back as i know she did not live near. She was very rude and said all my pictures i could of got all off the internet. All my pictures are time stamped and it says the location so they were taken at the cottage. The host was well aware of the damp smell as in the cupboards she has things to cover up damp smell. I messaged the Host and said i should be compensated some how. She asked my opinion and i said i would like some money back and she said im a bully and my behavior is unacceptable. She also said she will tell everyone on VRBO that im a bully as i complained about trivial things, Avoid at all cost.

We really enjoyed our stay in this property, very comfortable beds, and an enormously well equipped kitchen. The fact that you can walk and look straight into the forest from the French doors made it all the more enjoyable. Communication with the owner was really good too, with very quick replies. We would definitely return.

Excellent place to stay if you want to chill out. Unfortunately one of our party had a bad knee so couldn't make the most of the forest walks right on the doorstep. There is a pub that serves nice food in walking distance. Property had everything you could ask for and was very clean, had a lovely bathroom, log fire and lots of character. One if the bedrooms is on the mezzanine floor and 'open' but was very roomy. If you want a relaxing place to stay would highly recommend.

When we first arrived, we were extremely impressed with the spacious layout of the place. The cottage had everything from a tumbledryer to a huge TV with Netflix and Amazon Prime. The house was extremely comfortable and warm with games, books, an Alexa and a plethora of films. The entire family slept well in the spacious bedrooms, and there was plenty of natural light. My family are very particular about bathrooms, but the lavatory in the house was extremely nice in the sense that it had a shower, a bathtub and in general... nice facilities. Leaflets were supplied for lots of local landmarks and pubs. Finally, the forest outside was extremely picturesque. There are many beautiful nature walks a stone's throw from the house. Everything one would need could be found in the cottage, and we are very satisfied. Thank you for such an amazing stay! Vikram aged 12
