Owl's Nest Hideout — Local services in Forest of Dean

Stayed at this amazing cottage last weekend. The location is perfect, peaceful and quiet and surrounded by nature. Whilst in the wood fired hot tub one morning we counted 22 birds on the feeders. We heard woodpeckers in the morning and and owls in the evening. The close proximity of the three sheep and the opportunity to hand feed them was a fabulous experience.

There are lots of walks you can do from the cottage, including a fabulous one following the river to Tintern Abbey.

Friendly sheep too! Stay here, recharge...
