In a private but accessible location just outside the village of Yorkley in the Forest of Dean, Chestnut Tree Cottage is one of a pair of forester`s cottages right on their own down a woodland track. The cottage provides a light and welcoming haven in this very attractive rural area and is ideally placed for exploring the surrounding countryside. There are lovely walks straight from the house including a nearby ridge with spectacular views across the top of the forest.

The whole of the Forest of Dean, with its interesting archaeological and industrial remains (don`t miss Clearwell caves), is all around, offering a wide range of activities including cycling along the specially laid out trails and steam train rides for enthusiasts on the Dean Forest Railway. Canoeing and fishing are available on both the Rivers Wye and Severn, and Offa`s Dyke Path has some lovely, easily accessible stretches. Symonds Yat Rock, which at 500ft commands spectacular views over several counties, and Tintern Abbey are both well worth a visit. Chepstow, the cathedral cities of Hereford and Gloucester, the Brecon Beacons and the Cotswolds are all within reasonable driving distance.

Chestnut Tree Cottage is a bright, comfortable and surprisingly spacious house, recently modernised, with an inviting private garden at the rear - and a magnificent pool table in the garage!
