About this property
Coleford 1.25 miles. Danby Lodge is a characterful lodge only a short distance from the heart of Coleford; a town of lovely amenities, four miles from the Welsh border. With original beams, stone walling, and heated flagstone floors throughout the ground floor, this is a real home away from home. There is a wonderful open-plan living area inside, divided between a sumptuous lounge, modern kitchen, and a dining room beautifully wrapped in exposed stonework. With an electric woodburner effect fire to compliment the formation, this cottage is the perfect place to visit all-season-round. There is a family bathroom, whilst two enchanting bedrooms are situated on the upper floor, each thoughtfully decorated in pure detail, complete with traditional beams for a authentic overtone. Note: This property can be booked with Refs. 943797, 943807 and 966152, together they can sleep up to 26 people.
The Royal Forest of Dean is England's largest oak forest and is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The forest offers numerous trails that can be explored on foot, by bicycle or by horseback. Close to Coleford is the town of Lydney which sits on the banks of the River Severn and is in an area that is a delight for birdwatchers and wildlife enthusiasts. Just a short drive away, in the historic waterfront city of Gloucester.

The hot tub took hours to heat up as there was a problem with it, and wasn't hot enough for me to use until 8pm that night. The bedding for the pull out sofa was not added ready for use. The 5 days were spent looking at upturned discarded furniture ( Sofa and 2 chairs- by the bins- near the hot tub. I was told the chemicals would be left for me to add to the hot tub every day, which arrived Tuesday afternoon. The handyman was around alot in the first 2 days making it hard to feel at ease with my grandchildren and leaving us with little privacy. I sent in a complaint & clear photo's to Sykes with all these issues but have had a very unsatisfactory response. The owners response to my complaints was to lie, the cleaners had already left the site when we had arrived 1 hour earlier than planned, the other holiday makers next door had already moved in and were unpacking. We dropped our cold items in the fridge and went for an hours walk so that we weren't in the cottage until the 4pm arrival time. A very disappointed customer! There should be a link to add photos to this review!

Also information on the area walks , pubs and restaurants etc would have been appreciated. Also we paid for the cottage with hot tub, so we expected the facilities to be ready when we arrived not switched off and we had to wait for the tub to warm up.
