The Granary is a detached, self catering stone built character countryside / rural cottage, believed to be over 300 years old. It is converted from a former dairy and grain store, and retains many original features which gives this spacious king size sleigh bedded cottage a romantic feel. It is surrounded by countryside and woodland and indeed the Gloucestershire Way runs right by the door as well as the Wysis Way and there are many Forest countryside walks available directly from the cottage.

The space
The Granary has been sympathetically restored to provide you with a spacious, clean and comfortable holiday cottage in the beautiful Forest of Dean.

It has a delightful garden which has lots of birds and in the summer it is humming with bees and butterflies. The Granary has its own private enclosed cottage garden overlooking farmland. Some guests may be very lucky and see passing badgers, foxes, deer and even get a visit from the wild boar!

The small holding upon which the cottage is set is situated in a picturesque valley within an area protected for wildlife in the Forest of Dean.

The cottage has several other residents the chickens - their eggs are for sale subject to availability!! Sometimes the owners’ sheep graze in their adjacent field.

Woodland rises away to the front and to the rear lies gentle farmland. The area is wonderful for walking, birdwatching, mountain biking or just letting the stresses of life seep away.

The cottage is very central and is an ideal touring base for The Forest of Dean and within easy reach of The Wye Valley, Gloucester, the Cotswolds, Malvern, Brecon Beacons and Cheltenham.

The Granary offers one spacious bedroom with king size sleigh bed with 'A' frame beams and ensuite shower room. The bedroom doorway looks out onto the garden and down the old stone Granary steps of the former grain store a lovely feature.
It is also possible to sleep a child in a cot (travel cot and high chair are available upon request) or use the additional sofa bed in the bedroom. Please note for more than 2 guests there is an additional charge of £10 per night towards linens and towels etc.

Spacious and comfortable lounge with original beams with Freeview TV with Fire stick (remember your login and password details ) and DVD player, french doors open out to patio and seating area and private garden. Separate downstairs WC and washbasin.
