This
attractive cottage has been cleverly converted from a 400 year old
cider barn and is brimful of character. Situated on a small working
farm (which is also run as a bed and breakfast business) between
Ross-on-Wye and Gloucester, it is ideally located for exploring this
increasingly popular area. The Forest of Dean starts just 1/2 mile away:
Gloucester, Cheltenham and the Wye Valley are a short distance, and
Hereford and the Cotswolds an easy day's excursion.
Sweet Coppins (the name of a type of a local cider apple: the owners
are licensed to sell their own brew!) is close to the farmhouse; it has
its own small patio area at the entrance and visitors are also welcome
to share use of the farmhouse garden just opposite.
The cottage is interestingly arranged over four floors and has been converted to a high standard (Visit Britain 4 star grading)
with all possible needs carefully thought through by its owners
including a four poster bed and a double-ended whirlpool bath. They
also provide a welcome pack, which includes home made cakes and a
basket of free range eggs from their own ducks and chickens. This is a
peaceful - and very animal-friendly place, and thoroughly recommended
for a relaxed and battery-charging holiday. |
