Lyn July 2024

“This is a beautiful cottage for 2.”

It has been converted to the highest standard, all furniture and fittings comfortable and good quality. The bedroom is especially lovely, with a bird feeder outside the windows and binoculars for watching from the bed! Lots of lovely touches like that. The welcome basket with home made bread and the owners’ honey was much appreciated. Lovely sunny courtyard garden, and access to the owners’ garden to sit by the pond. The bees didn’t bother us at all! The cottage is remote, but in a beautiful spot.

“An excellent rural setting, plenty of walks for the energetic, or if you just wish to relax a very nice garden area.”

The bird feeder outside the bedroom window kept us entertained on a morning with a variety of birds. The owners were very welcoming and informative and the accommodation was very comfortable, well equipped and spotlessly clean. We would certainly use it again

Rosemary April 2024

“The Cider Barn is very peaceful and comfortable.”

It was delightful to see the birds feeding on the nut feeder whilst drinking coffee in bed. The owners were friendly but not obtrusive. Their welcome pack of eggs, milk and bread were all locally sourced and lovely. We would definitely recommend the Cider Barn for a ‘get away from it’ all break.

Helen April 2024

“Idyllic setting with birds, gardens and views.”

This tranquillity is especially welcome after negotiating steep, muddy, pot holed single track roads. My city car struggled but we were glad to make it. Good bed and woke up daily to cheery sunshine and bird song.

“What a lovely cottage , everything you could wish for.”

Location a bit off the beaten track so a car is a must . Welcoming owners who provide a little welcome pack and they sell their own honey as well. Plenty of space outside .All in all one of the nicest cottages we have stayed in .

Sue July 2023

“We had such a lovely few days at the cider barn - a beautiful little retreat.”

Luxurious and stocked with everything we needed. Watching the birds on the bird feeder was a delight, and sitting in the courtyard in the evening rounded the day off wonderfully. The cider barn sits in glorious countryside and even has its own pretty grounds to explore. We had mixed weather but it didn’t spoil our time at all. We would highly recommend the cider barn and we look forward to returning.

- Sue, July 2023

What lovely comments, thank you so much. So glad you enjoyed your stay despite our typical English Weather. Property Owner

“Had a lovely week cottage was very homely and in a lovely setting .”

If I was being very picky bedroom extremely bright once dawn came but I am very light sleeper

- Colin, July 2023

Leigh June 2023

“This was a wonderful cottage to stay in.”

It is clean, well furnished and very peaceful. The owners are lovely and genuinely pleased to make your stay as pleasant as possible. Add to this the location which is picturesque and quiet then you are guaranteed a great stay. Only odd thing is that there are no curtains upstairs in the bedroom which does mean waking up with the sun and maybe one thing to address. But, all in all, I had a fantastic week and it is one of those places people would keep coming back to.

- Leigh, June 2023

Thank you for your lovely feedback regarding your stay at The Cider Barn. It's always amazing to hear how much guests love the barn and we hope to welcome you again soon. Kind regards Hideaways. Property Owner

Celia May 2023

“Beautiful barn conversion in the heart of the countryside with a backdrop of the forest of Dean.”

Private patio garden at rear with ample seating, eco and wildlife friendly with a joining private use of stunning wildlife garden and pond for your use. Fresh bread, milk and eggs from the 2 chickens that reside in owners garden were in the cottage on arrival for us along with a welcoming card and flowers. Clean and very well presented with all amenities, including teatowels and Bath towels. Very comfortable bed and we enjoyed filming the woodpeckers eating from the bird feeder outside the bedroom window each morning. Peaceful location and bee hives on owners property where you can buy home made honey. Very friendly couple, nothing is too much trouble but allowed us privacy. We would recommend The Cider Barn without hesitation

- Celia, May 2023

Thank you for your comments Celia. So pleased you enjoyed your stay and your daily spotted visitors! Property Owner
Margaret May 2023

“What a gem of a find.”

The Cider Barn was everything we were lookig for and more. It was very spacious for a cottage for two. We had a very warm welcome and felt instantly at home. We hope to return to To the Barn again. Perhaps to see the forest in a different season. Truly a memorable stay. Thank you Kim and Gary.

- Margaret, May 2023

Many thanks for such lovely positive comments Margaret. Just so pleased you enjoyed your stay at the Cider Barn and brought the glorious sunshine with you too! Kim Property Owner

Cheryl August 2022

“We thought the cider barn was a lovely quiet place to relax.”

It had everything we needed to make our holiday very comfortable. Just felt a little uncomfortable about the upstairs bedroom fire exist having no lock on it and it lead straight into next door. However the owners were lovely. Hope to be going again.

- Cheryl, August 2022

Thank you for your comments. Glad you enjoyed your stay. I’m sorry you felt uncomfortable with the fire exit door not being locked but this is purely for the safety of our guests in the event of a fire downstairs. Property Owner
Stuart August 2022

“Extremely clean and comfortable, lovely setting in the countryside, very welcome touch to receive the bread milk and eggs on arrival.”

And great to have the owners welcome. Great central place to explore Gloucestershire from.

- Stuart, August 2022

Thank you Stuart, so glad you enjoyed your stay and enjoyed the welcome basket. Property Owner
Ian July 2022

“Our stay here exceeded expectations.”

The Cider Barn was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. We really appreciated the milk, free-range eggs and lovely bread that were provided for us when we arrived. Lovely as the barn is though, the semi-wild outside space is even better; It’s absolutely beautiful, and so quiet and peaceful. The other thing we really liked was the bird feeder under the eaves. We spent ages watching the birds in the morning! Thank you so much.

- Ian, July 2022

That you both so much for such a positive review. So very pleased you enjoyed both the interior and exterior of the Cider Barn. It was an absolute pleasure having you to stay. Property Owner
Sue July 2022

Thank you Sue, so glad you enjoyed your stay & welcome basket. Property Owner
Hazel June 2022

“Nice cottage, Clean and tidy.”

Good location. Bathroom - hand basin, shower cubicle and WC are too small.

- Hazel, June 2022

Very sorry that you found the toilet, shower and hand basin too small. However it does clearly say in the description that it is an en suite bathroom not a family bathroom. Property Owner
Stephen June 2022

“Having read previous reviews, our expectations were high.”

The Cider Barn still managed to exceed them. This is a perfect, comfortable, secluded cottage, ideal both for a relaxing getaway, and as a base to explore the lovely Forest of Dean & Wye Valley. The welcome basket of bread, milk, and eggs from their own hens, provided by the owners, was much appreciated. We also highly recommend the honey produced by their bees. The garden with its cherry trees, pond, wild flowers, and two patios is the perfect place to relax and unwind. Watching woodpeckers at the bedroom window every day was a bonus too. All in all, this is the perfect hideaway holiday cottage. We didn't want to leave, and hope to return to the Cider Barn.

- Stephen, June 2022

Thank you both for such positive feedback. It was an absolute pleasure having you to stay so glad you enjoyed our "wild" garden too. We would love to welcome you back one day. Property Owner
Marlene May 2022

“If it was possible to give the Cider Barn a 6 Star review we most certainly would!”

It's that good. Cosy, comfortable, pretty garden and courtyard areas - everything you could hope for in a country cottage holiday. Lovely bedroom with panoramic view, wake up to blue tits and woodpeckers feeding in front of your window. Kim and Gary are friendly property owners, the welcome pack provided on our first day was an indicator that everything has been considered to make our stay as comfortable and relaxing as possible. Thank you Kim and Gary. Like many others we have fallen in love with The Cider Barn and will definitely return to the beautiful Forest of Dean.

- Marlene, May 2022
Michael May 2022

“Very peaceful rustic location.”

Owners friendly and helpful. Facilities very good. Would not hesitate to return.

Karen April 2022

“Such a beautiful cottage, set in brilliant surroundings.”

The owners were wonderful and not intrusive. An excellent place to stay and the most relaxing holiday, only the sounds and sights of birds and humming bees to be heard , whilst sitting in 1 of the 3 seating areas outside the cottage. Highly recommended.

- Karen, April 2022

Thank you so much Karen, it was a pleasure having you to stay in the Cider Barn. Property Owner
Sarah April 2022

“We've been under a lot of stress and this was the perfect place to escape everything.”

A little idyll in the countryside. Sitting in bed you felt like you were in a tree house with panaromic views of tree tops. There are two little patio gardens, both with table and chairs, plus a locely seat overlooking the pond - so there are lots of options to sit and relax outside. The owners were friendly and helpful. We followed their advice on the Little Dean chippy - delicious fish. We even got to learn a bit about bee keeping.

- Sarah, April 2022

Thank you very much Sarah, it was lovely to host yourself and Andrew and we hope to see you again. Property Owner
Marianne September 2021

“The Cider Barn was exceptional, its location gave us the peace and quiet that we both craved for.”

Its cleanliness and comfort plus being well equipped made our stay there relaxing and a memorable one. There was a warm welcome from Kim along with milk, bread, honey and eggs waiting for us inside. The honey and eggs were from their bees and hens. I can recommend this property without hesitation and hopefully, we may return one day.

- Marianne, September 2021
Karen August 2021

“A lovely cottage in a great location, although a little off the beaten track.”

The cottage was well appointed and spotlessly clean. A basket with milk, bread, eggs and homemade honey was a warm welcome. The instructions on how to reach the cottage were good, as not straightforward, although need to be updated as the Greyhound Pub is not longer there. An enjoyable holiday - Thanks.

- Karen, August 2021

Thank you for taking time to leave a feedback, we are delighted you enjoyed your stay, looking forward to welcoming you soon, Property Owner
Christine June 2021

“The Cider Barn is probably the cleanest holiday cottage that i have ever stayed in.”

The cottage is really well equipped with everything you could possibly need. We were thrilled with the welcome package of fresh milk bread and jars of the owners home produced honey. The rear courtyard is surrounded by beautiful scented roses and is a lovely sun trap. There are bird feeders hanging outside of the bedroom window where we had the pleasure of watching a Woodpecker eating his breakfast which was a real treat to watch this shy creature close up. The owners of the Cider Barn are friendly but not intrusive and have lots of local knowledge to offer if required. If you choose the Cider Barn for your holiday break you will not be disappointed.

- Christine, June 2021

Thank you very much for your beautiful feedback about the Cider Barn. We are delighted to hear that you had a wonderful time staying there. Property Owner

Janet May 2021

“We enjoyed our stay at the Cider Barn, despite the disappointing weather.”

Gary & Kim were very friendly & helpful hosts, initially providing a lovely welcome pack of delicious bread, honey (their own) & milk. The accommodation was comfortable & spacious and there was a choice of private, outside space to benefit from the peaceful surroundings. We particularly enjoyed the bird feeders outside the bedroom window, which attracted many birds, including a woodpecker! The only problem was the washbasin in the bathroom, which was fine for hand washing but rather small for anything else. Overall, a great place to stay if you are looking for tranquility & a natural environment. The Forest of Dean area is well worth a visit!

- Janet, May 2021

Thank you for your feedback with regards to your recent stay at The Cider Barn. It's lovely to hear all these fabulous comments and how much you enjoyed your stay. We hope to welcome you back again soon. Property Owner

Stephen September 2020

“An absolute joy it was to stay here at Cider Barn.”

Set about a mile from the main road in and amongst the most perfect scenery around. The perfect place to be when you want the break from the busy life. A beautiful place which is spotlessly clean and comfortable. Everything you need is contained here, fantastic walking or relax in the garden by the pond, take your pick. Wonderful owners who live next door leave you to it. You have a dedicated car space behind a gate which is a godsend these days. I cannot rate this property high enough, it’s a gem and needs exploring.

- Stephen, September 2020

Thank you so much for your kind words. We really appreciate you taking the time out to share your experience of your stay at The Cider Barn. Property Owner

Jacqui August 2019

“We were welcomed by the lady who owns the Cider Barn,she lives next door.”

Inside, there was a fresh loaf of bread, paint of fresh milk and some honey from the hives that they keep. The house and surroundings are absolutely stunning. So pretty and picturesque. Only 30 minutes drive from Gloucester, Ross on Wye and Cheltenham. There is plenty of information inside the house for local facilities, and things to do. Altogether perfect.

- Jacqui, August 2019
Julie August 2019

“Kym and Gary are great - friendly but not intrusive.”

The Cider Barn is a beautifully secluded cottage attached to the Main house (although you'd never know it), very peaceful and perfect if your travelling alone as the area is safe. Surrounded by the best the Forest of Dean can offer. A little Gem.

- Julie, August 2019
Nadja May 2019

“The Cider Barn was great!”

The cottage itself was very comfy with beautiful interior and well equipped and clean facilities. I loved the general atmosphere in and around the house and grounds. Oh and I totally miss the wood burner! Also the owners were very helpful and friendly and provided a warm welcome (even the cat) :-) In nearby Cinderford you'll find everything you need...shops, butcher, bank, hairdresser.

- Nadja, May 2019
Karen March 2019

“WOW a great little hideaway.”

Meet with a very friendly welcome, a grat welcome basket of Milk fresh bread and honey. Great nights un winding in front of the log burner with a beer. You must treat your self to buy the homemade honey £4 a jar great value. Great places to eat out near by. Look forward to my next holiday there next year.

- Karen, March 2019
Wendy February 2019

Guest's review on TripAdvisor

“Set high in the stunningly beautiful Forest of Dean with the garden overlooking the majestic river Severn, it would be difficult to imagine a more idyllic spot to 'chill out'.”

No traffic noise and only the rustle of the wind through the trees to disturb the silence. We stayed at apple blossom time and so took very many photographs but the location is breathtaking at any part of the year. On arriving, we were greeted by very friendly hosts who we never saw again, (except by coincidence). There was a welcome pack of provisions including a loaf of local gorgeous bread and we found the kitchen to be well stocked with tools and electrical gadgets which all worked. The well stocked DVDs and book library was brilliant and we look forward to returning again for another wonderful holiday.

“We enjoyed a lovely holiday at The Cider Barn.”

The cottage and surroundings are idyllic. We were fortunate with the weather, which was very warm and sunny. This part of the country is new to us and we enjoyed walking around and seeing the area and visiting the different places. Sitting in the garden was so peaceful and we loved having Chester the cat for company. He loved sitting with us in the sunshine - so sweet and friendly! Thank you for providing us with such comfortable accommodation and hospitality and we would certainly like to visit again

About the location

NEWNHAM-ON-SEVERN

Gloucester 13 miles.

The thriving village of Newnham-on-Severn nestles on the banks of the River Severn. The village is steeped in history, and offers specialist shops to suit all interests, along with traditional pubs and cafes. This charming village, part of which is designated Conservation Area, has a tree-lined main street, many listed buildings, a striking central clock tower and is ideally located for watching the spectacular Severn Bore. The Royal Forest of Dean, England's largest oak forest, offers numerous trails that can be explored on foot, bicycle or horseback. Caving, abseiling and a high-wire rope course are on offer for the more adventurous, while fishing, golf, kayaking and canoeing are also available. Gloucester is just a short drive away, where you will find Roman foundations, Victorian docklands and a spectacular Norman cathedral (whose cloisters were used in the Harry Potter films). Littledean with its unique Jail Museum and Quadrophenia Collection, Westbury Court Garden, the only restored water garden in the country and the ancient caves and eerie caverns of Clearwell Caves (as seen in Dr Who and Merlin) make a great family day out. The ancient market towns of Ross-on-Wye and Monmouth have excellent shops, pubs and restaurants, plus many black and white timbered buildings, or visit the historic walled town of Chepstow with its celebrated race course and impressive Norman castle. A little further afield, discover the beautiful Malvern Hills, Black Mountains and Brecon Beacon National Park. A great location for a relaxing break or activity holiday at any time of year.
