This secluded, pet-friendly house offers a lovely holiday base for a large family or a group of friends, with a host of attractions for all ages within easy reach. The striking contemporary property sleeps six guests and is less than a mile from the shops, pubs and restaurants of Lydney. The town is on the mighty River Severn, and you can enjoy wonderful views on walks along the estuary. Beautiful Bathurst Park has an excellent café, a children’s play area and tennis courts, and Lydney also boasts a splendid lido. Enjoy a gentle pace of travel on the Dean Forest Railway from Lydney Junction. The heritage steam train stops at five charming country stations and takes you deep into the Forest of Dean. From there, you can walk or cycle through ancient woodland – look out for the remarkable 4-mile Sculpture Trail, with works by leading artists set among the trees.
