The Old Winery Cottage
Forest of Dean
View on Google MapsPhoto: Sue Cole
This one-bedroom cottage began life as a winery building and retains that character while offering all the comforts of a modern retreat. Set near Newent on the Forest of Dean border, it sits within a shared garden with its own patio area and private parking for two cars. Ground-floor living means everything—the bedroom with kingsize bed and ensuite shower, the combined living room and kitchen, and dining space—is on one level. The hot tub on the patio faces out towards the Three Choirs vineyards and the rolling countryside beyond.
The kitchen is equipped for self-catering with a cooker, dishwasher, fridge and freezer; the living room has a woodburner with initial logs provided, and Freeview TV keeps you entertained on quieter evenings. Bed linen, towels and wifi are included. The location works well for exploring: Newent is three miles away, Gloucester cathedral and docks ten miles, and the Wye Valley with Tintern Abbey within reach for a day trip. Walkers will find the forest on the doorstep; those interested in birds of prey can visit the International Centre nearby, and Cheltenham Racecourse is under 20 miles away. The cottage does not permit smoking, and is suitable for adults only.

We have just spent the past week here. It’s a beautiful cottage, self contained with a log burner and hot tub. It is very spacious with a well equipped kitchen with dishwasher and washer. The washer was very handy after the muddy walks thanks to the trusty British weather. It is very warm and cosy and comfy. We took our dog who was welcomed. It is very clean with towels to use and robes for the hot tub. Nice big bed too (felt bigger than a double but not sure if it was a king). We’d advise you to get an ordnance survey map if you plan on doing some walking but plenty of walks to do if you’re looking for that sort of holiday. Newent village has a lot to offer with a lovely deli, pub (Kings arms) and Indian take away (Bombay Kitchen) plus lots of other shops. Mel is very friendly and often about to ask any questions. the wifi was very poor and often didn’t work but we did get an ok-ish internet signal on our phones for Netflix etc. There is a DVD player and dvd collection. It is literally in the middle of nowhere which was perfect for us but if you need to rely on public transport or taxis then maybe not the best location.

A very comfortable cottage that is well equipped for a relaxing stay. There is a hot tub, garden area and a summerhouse to enjoy outside. Inside the rooms are generously sized with lots of space to put away your items! Mel is a marvellous host and a warm welcome awaits. We have visited three times and are hoping to come again next year. There are lots of interesting places to visit from the cottage. The cottage is on one level so arrival and departure is easy!
