About Old Forge Cottage...

Old Forge Cottage is the perfect place to get together with family or friends whilst exploring the beautiful area.

Make the most of opening the French doors and enjoying a BBQ whilst seated in the suntrap, courtyard garden with its original cobbles, or sitting in front of the gas fired stove in the comfortable lounge during those cooler months.

Throughout the house we have sourced local art and crafts which are available to purchase, or have made to take home with you at the end of your stay.

What our guests say...

"Forge Cottage is finished and furnished to an extremely high standard. The quality of furnishings, beddings and decor are second to none. It is clear, when designing this place, that they chose the best rather than "that'll do" and that really makes the stay feel special and brings with it comfort and style. The location is absolutely fantastic. A short walk to the river, which has a great park for the kids. An even shorter walk to what looked like a really nice pub (we didn't go). Shops super close to stock up the beer fridge or get that important bacon for the butties in the morning. Can drive to plenty of nice places near by for brilliant walks. Would stay again

"Beautiful cottage. Restored to a high standard. Great location. Good space, lovely little garden, welcoming fire after long walks Wyeside. We couldn’t have asked for more really"

"The house is absolutely stunning and so beautifully finished and thought out. The little touches everywhere (from the cookies/drinks to the soft close mini pedal bins in bathrooms to the fresh flowers) made such a difference and the fact that absolutely everything (other than your food) is there at the house for you, so you can just rock up with your clothes and you are set. Didn’t need to think about anything. Super quick responses from Zoe who didn’t mind the 100’s questions, beautifully cosy and comfy, beds and rooms and bathrooms were well provided and really comfy for great nights sleep. Great location and easy walking distance to town. Can’t rate this house and Zoe highly enough"

"Forge Cottage is beautifully decorated and the hosts are incredibly warm and welcoming. The location is great as the town centre is minutes away by foot. Would highly recommend the house to anyone looking for a place in and around the Forest of Dean and Wye Valley"

"Old Forge Cottage was everything we hoped it would be. Bright, Roomy and spotlessly clean. It has bags of character with lots of original features blended seamlessly with the up to the minute restoration. It is excellently placed for all your needs shops, takeaways and extra parking."

"A smart, beautifully decorated house right in the Middle of Ross. We found everything we needed. There were 4 of us staying on a fishing trip – we had a very nice bedroom each and the whole place was really comfortable and sparklingly clean. Zoe went out of her way to make our stay effortless. I'd highly recommend a stay here.”
