With unencumbered views across the surrounding woodlands, this property is perfect for guests wanting to embrace the Forest of Dean. The traditional mining town of Cinderford lies within the heart of the Forest of Dean and is well served for you to enjoy local produce from the gourmet butchers, bakery and health food shop selling local Forest of Dean honey. There is plenty to explore from your front door, via the family cycle route, or the sculpture trail. Visit Beechenhurst (3 miles), where you can swing from the trees at Go Ape or enjoy a cake and coffee from the cafe. For wildlife, there are several nature reserves where you are free to roam. For mountain bikers, you can take on one of the many downhill trails, along with rock climbing and kayaking for the more adventurous. For a family day out, you can visit Clearwell Caves, Puzzle Wood, Perry Grove Railway, Hopewell Colliery or Dean Heritage Centre, all within 7 miles. The property is situated along a peaceful lane overlooking the forest, with gated access to an enclosed garden where you can reach the property via the front door. Step inside to the entrance hall where you can leave your muddy boots and coats. The bedrooms are situated on the ground floor, with a choice of two beautifully finished bedrooms, a king size room with Smart TV and en suite shower room, and a zip and link room which can be configured as a twin or king size on request. There is also a shower room with a double shower and WC on the ground floor. The staircase leads to the open plan first floor, with stunning views, offering the perfect place to sit back and relax with friends. A seating area awaits, with comfortable sofas, a Smart TV, and a wood burner effect electric fire. For dining, a generously sized table with built in benches is great for gathering around and enjoying supper or a board game together.
