Ashdown Reach, Forest of Dean

An eight-bedroom country retreat sleeping up to 16 guests, full of charm and character, set in the magical Forest of Dean. It’s the perfect spot for group getaways, complete with a relaxing hot tub.

This lovely country house has two spacious lounges, a big farmhouse-style kitchen with a traditional Aga and stone hearth, and a formal wood-panelled dining room that seats up to 16 people – perfect for big family meals or celebrations.

There’s loads of space for everyone, with a Super King four-poster bed, six comfy King bedrooms, and one twin room. You’ll also find two family bathrooms, one en-suite, and a handy downstairs loo – ideal for larger groups.

Sleeping up to 16 guests (and welcoming dogs too!), it’s a brilliant spot for family get-togethers. You’re within walking distance of the stunning Symonds Yat viewpoint, the River Wye for canoeing, kayaking, and wild swimming, plus loads of great local pubs and walking or cycling trails.

Outside, you can unwind in the new wood-fired hot tub, or make the most of the big front and back gardens – complete with deckchairs, parasols, and outdoor dining furniture for those lazy afternoons in the sun. Families are well catered for too, with toys, a cot, pull-out mattress, and high chairs available on request.

This isn’t just a place to stay – it’s a proper home-from-home in one of the most beautiful spots in the Forest of Dean.
