“Our hosts were lovely and extremely friendly and welcoming.”

The cottage was well equipped and very comfortable. It was a shame that local footpaths were overgrown or closed for maintenance work. We still had a lovely time and visited many local places where we had great fun.

A very comfortable and homely stay. Greeted by the owner was lovely. The cottage was clean, and attention to detail was made on all aspects.

“Court house cottage is a very well presented holiday venue.”

We found it to be very comfortable and well equipped and suited our every need. As we were well prepared to self cater (we had two dogs with us, and find it easier to eat at our venues) the kitchen was a pleasure to use and we didn't seek out local pubs or restaurants but we did pass quite a few within a 10- 20 minute drive. The garden area is secure if you have dogs or children, and the weather was very hot during our stay but we had shade during the afternoon. Be prepared for some passing trains about 300m away and apart from that we had a very peaceful a relaxing break. Nigel, the owner, introduced himself on arrival and pointed out a few things locally and was a pleasure to chat to. All in all we found Court House cottage to be excellent !

- Michael, June 2025

Thank you Michael for your lovely review, glad you liked the cottage so much. It was a pleasure to chat to both of you as well! Property Owner

“The cottage was beautiful and in a wonderful location, not more than 30 minutes from any of the local attractions We only met Marie, the owner, who was very friendly and most helpful.”

We would definitely book here again when visiting The Forest of Dean

- David, June 2025

Thank you very much. We hope to both see you if you come again. Property Owner

“We had a lovely time in this property, Nigel and his neighbours were very helpful with directions, about the area, and where to go for days out.”

It is in a quiet area and you do need the car to get out and about, not far from the forest of Dean. The cottage is beautifully maintained, the beds are very comfortable, everything that you need for a great holiday. If you want peace and tranquility, this is the place. We will definitely be booking again.

We greatly appreciate the time you have taken to make these lovely comments. We look forward to seeing you again! Property Owner

About the location

BLAKENEY

Gloucester 16 miles; Monmouth 16 miles; Ross-on-Wye 17 miles.

The ancient village of Blakeney lies on the southeast edge of the Royal Forest of Dean and was once a site of a Roman Villa dating back to 75AD. Equidistant to Gloucester and Monmouth, the village boasts many 16th and 17th century buildings, with a charming 16th century coaching inn, and also offers a good selection of amenities including a fish and chip shop, village store and Post Office, as well as numerous walks and cycle routes. The magnificent Royal Forest of Dean, England's largest oak forest and an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, boasts numerous trails that can be explored on foot, by bike or horseback. Caving, abseiling and a high wire rope course can be enjoyed by the more adventurous, whilst fishing, golf, kayaking and canoeing are other popular activities available in this unspoilt area. In the Forest of Dean lies Puzzlewood, a magical ancient woodland attraction for all ages and used as a famous filming location in Dr Who and Star Wars. The eerie caverns and ancient caves of Clearwell are close by, as are the Gloucestershire Way and Offa's Dyke Path for wonderful walks. Close by, Symonds Yat boasts natural scenery and straddles the beautiful River Wye with its magnificent limestone rock, popular with climbers, and well known for its viewpoint. Visit the historic town of Monmouth, which offers a fusion of elegant Georgian mansions and Victorian courtyards, or the lovely town of Ross-on-Wye with its timbered Tudor houses and delightful riverside walks, both home to excellent shops, pubs and restaurants. The unspoilt Malvern Hills, Brecon Beacon National Park and Black Mountains, as well as lovely Cotswold towns and villages are just a little further afield.
