"Clean and comfortable property with everything that was needed."

"Property was very nice."
Garden certainly not dog friendly. My little dog fell straight in the pond as walk ways are too steep. Not very safe for older people. Doesn’t show in pictures how uneven it really is. Could do with some grass for dog to have a wee.
We are sorry to hear your little dog took a unexpected dip in the pond, however we were a bit surprised to hear that he did not take advantage of the large lawn in the gardens for his business. Thank you for visiting us at Highbury Coach House and we hope to welcome you back. Property Owner

"This appartment had everything!"
Charm and comfort; beautiful outside spaces and good parking. Also an absolutely terrific view! Elaine rang before we arrived to check we knew where we were going and to make arrangements to leave the keys etc and spoke to us before we left, which was nice. The kitchen area was well appointed and had all the utensils needed…… my only criticism was that there was little space to store food such as tinned goods and bread. Lovely comfy reclining sofas…… great sitting area! Excellent wi-fi service too! The bathroom was very good, the heated towel rail was enough to take the chill off! Both bedrooms were nicely furnished and comfy but the main bedroom wardrobe was full of cleaning equipment and the ironing board so had limited hanging space for longer items. Not really an issue for us as we just used the other wardrobe. Great location, close to Lydney and not far to Coleford or the Forest itself. Thank you for a lovely home from home!
We really appreciate you posting such a kind and lovely review, and we hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back again to the Highbury Coach House and the stunning Forest of Dean Property Owner

"Thank you for an amazing place to stay."
We were very comfortable and everything we could think of was provided. Our welcome pack was very thoughtful and much appreciated. The bed was comfy and the bedding was crisp and clean, simply perfect. This was our second stay with you and we would not hesitate to return again, thank you.
Very many thanks for your kind review and for returning to the Tackroom at Highbury Coach House, it was lovely seeing you and the children running around the gardens and enjoying themselves. I hope we have the pleasure if welcome you back again to the stunning Forest of Dean. Property Owner

The views and the location are great for either just relaxing or touring around. Must try the Dean Forest railway which can be seen from garden. The owners are extremely helpful. We plan to revisit soon.

"After what had been a tough year I needed a chill out holiday."
As I don’t drive there were nice walks locally and everything needed handy. Had forgotten a throw for the dog and Elaine kindly provided one. I would highly recommend and intend to visit again

"We spent a very pleasant week in the Tack Room."
A lot of thought and care had clearly gone into the conversion of the building. It was very well equipped , we were particularly pleased by the private balcony and the excellent gardens. Parking was very convenient and Doug and Elaine were very welcoming. Lydney was a perfect place for exploring the area. We would certainly recommend the Harbour and Taurus Arts Centre.
We are delighted you enjoyed your stay in the Tack Room and we really appreciate you taking the time to give us wonderful feedback. There is a lot more of the Forest of Dean to explore so we hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back to Highbury Coach House Property Owner

"Had the most fabulous week away in the tack room, so clean and comfortable with amazing views."
Really unusual to have very comfy recliners and cosy beds in a holiday accommodation, sooo nice. We both needed a break and couldn’t have asked for more. Came home feeling very refreshed. One thing we’d like to recommend are a few more gates for guests with dogs, esp at end of tack room balcony as we couldn’t leave the door open! Apart from that it was better than a week abroad. Thank you sooooo much. Hope to see you again next year x Bev, Ian and the dogs x
Very many thank Bev and Ian for taking the time to give us lovely feedback, we are delighted you enjoyed your stay in the Tack Room. Next time we will supply you with a barrier to keep your dogs on the terrace. Property Owner

"We had an amazing two week stay."

The location was ideal for exploring the surrounding countryside. The Tack Room is an absolute pleasure to stay at. We would like to thank our host , both were very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. The gift left for us on our arrival was a lovely gesture and much appreciated. Thank you guys we had a great holiday, and we look forward to staying with you again in the future.

"Our week long stay in The Tack Room, Lydney, was perfect."
The house was comfortable and clean, and although it was situated on a main road, it didn't spoil our stay in the slightest. But....the gardens at the back of the property were sublime! So much space and seating and so peaceful and relaxing. We wouldn't hesitate in booking this property again.

"Lovely apartment, snug and warm in late autumn."
The double bed in the main bedroom was extremely comfortable (think it must be pretty new). Fantastic view from the twin bedroom and the back patio. There is a beautiful shared garden with lots of features (NB take note of the listing's warning about unfenced ponds if you have children). Fabulous location with Lydney centre (and the A road to Chepstow) only half a mile down the road, so easy to reach local sights and supermarket. And if you want a nice meal we have to recommend the Miners Arms only 3 miles away in Whitecroft.
Very many thanks for you lovely feedback, we are delighted you enjoyed the Tack Room and our gardens we hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back again soon. Property Owner

"Absolutely loved this property."
It was the perfect location in which to relax and unwind and to enjoy having my grand-daughters stay in the twin bed room during half term. A well presented and well laid out property with all amenities, and with the owners just a stones throw away. Elaine & Doug very kindly provided a welcome pack of goodies on arrival, and there were certainly plenty of board games in the property to keep the little ones amused, as well as a lovely garden to explore too. A perfect location in which to explore the beautiful surroundings of the Forest of Dean, and a lovely cozy home to come back to in the evenings. Just a 10 minute walk from the town center of Lydney, and in close proximity to the supermarkets, shops and restaurants. Would definitely stay again.
Thank you very much for your lovely feedback, we really appreciate you taking the time, and we are looking forward to welcoming you and your lovely family back again soon Property Owner

"A beautiful, well organised and facilitated apartment."
Such a gorgeous home from home that wanted for nothing. Doug and Elaine are magnificent hosts - we did not need them whilst there but got the impression that they would be available if required! Thank you so much for your attention to detail

"Beautiful building and gardens, including great outdoor games for children."
The shame was how close the noise of the traffic was and the comfort of the beds. Shower hose was covered in mold which was a little disappointing for something so easily replaced. The small touches by the hosts were lovely like some snacks & milk on arrival as were the people themselves when we saw them.
Thank you for your feedback and we are pleased that you enjoyed your stay. Please accept our apologies for the grubby shower hose, this had been overlooked and has now been rectified. Property Owner

"Sykes property listing of facilities was not accurate."
...listing stated that property had a DVD Player and a selection of DVD's - this was not the case and I subsequently had to purchase a DVD Player.. this cost me £30.00!! Also for some reason my son had a 13.5 tog rated duvet on his bed far to warm for summer use.... Overall though the property was nicely furnished, clean and with all the essential facilities... just need to amend listing to remove availability of a DVD Player!!! I would certainly consider a return visit..
Very many thanks for the Feedback we will take your comments on board. We updated the TV to a Smart TV with Free View back in April, and it was an oversite on my part, which has now been rectified. We look forward to welcoming you back at a future date. Property Owner

"The property was lovely."
It had all the facilities you could need.It was in a great location and there was a lots to do in the area. We have 2 dogs and spent a lot of time in the Forest of Dean. The only down side was that the property was on a busy A road, but the dogs were able to enjoy the lovely back garden.
We are so pleased that you enjoyed the Tack Room and The wonderful Forest of Dean, we look forward to welcoming you back in the near future. Property Owner

"A quaint, quintessentially English converted stable property in the heart of semi-rural Gloucestershire."
Despite being next to a busy road it was NOT a problem at all. The Tack Room is very comfortable indeed, with excellent facilities and a well equipped kitchen. The comfiest leather sofas ever, with really comfy beds. The shower could have been better but it did the job. The owners live next door and are on hand for advice on local walks, attractions etc and for a small fee will even dog sit for you! Highly recommended for a quiet retreat.
Thankyou very much for your lovely feedback, it really means a lot to us, we are so very pleased you enjoyed staying in the Tack Room and we hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back . Property Owner

"Not dog friendly."
Open gate way onto busy road. Property was dark inside, Internet was painfully slow.
Thank you for your valuable feedback, we hope you enjoyed the rest of your stay and exploring the Forest of Dean. Doug and Elaine note - All well behaved dogs are very welcome in our cottages (at no extra cost), we have a large private rear garden, supply bowls mats and towels if required and we even offer a dog sitting service should you need it.

"The property was very comfortable, a great location."
The dog loved the garden with all the little footpaths through it, if the weather had been warmer it would have been lovely to sit in and enjoy the sunshine and views. The owners were very friendly and helpful and kindly left us some treats. Would definitely return.
Very many thanks for your lovely feedback, we are so happy you had a wonderful time, and look forward to welcoming you back Property Owner

"We had a lovely relaxed stay in May - accommodation very comfortable, fully equipped, beautiful garden & views, pleasant owners, scrummy treats on arrival, good takeaways/restaurants nearby and well located for easy access to the forest & beyond."
Road a little noisy at first, but fine once you got used to it and did not affect the quality of our holiday. Most enjoyable stay & would highly recommend - not often we would consider return holiday visits but this ones definitely an exception!!

"A really lovely place to stay to explore the Forrest of Dean."
It felt warm and welcoming in arrival the treats left for us where a nice touch. Good communication prior to our arrival. Very clean, comfortable furniture. The bed was so comfortable, good quality bed linen and towels. Beautifully decorated with some nice art work . We even had a Christmas tree outside our window. We loved the views down the valley especially at night watching all the Christmas lights in town and on clear nights star gazing. We had a very lovely weeks holiday, very relaxing.

"Wow what a lovely holiday home!"
When we first arrived at the tack room we were pleasantly surprised at how lovely the apartment was and even more impressed with the amazing view! Great location for exploring and 2 minutes away from a big Tesco! Beds were comfy and the apartment had all the necessary utensils you would need on holiday. One minor negative and that was the smell that came in from the outside. Smelt very strongly of toilet waste. Not sure why that was but is the only negative I have about this lovely place.
Thank you very much for your kind comments, very much appreciated, we are investigating the odour outside although seems to have eradicated but will continue to check, glad you had a great time best regards Property Owner

"Stayed in the Tack Room of Highbury Coach House for a week with family and 2x dogs."
Apartment was lovely, gardens are amazing and the views breathtaking. The owners are terrific people very friendly and approachable and we felt like we had known them for years. The whole experience for us was peaceful and tranquil, relaxing and recharging of ones batteries. We would recommend staying here to anyone who loves nature, as the Forest Of Dean is all around. Shops and amenities are literally minuets away (by car) During our stay we visited Go Ape (adult kids went on the Segways, dogs fully worn out walking around the forest) Taurus Crafts (unfortunately quite a few of the little shops on their site were closed, i can only presume due to covid which was a shame, but we were still able to wander about window shopping this is dog friendly too) Dean Forest Railway was brilliant again dog friendly, museum and gift shop, the train rides are nice as it takes you into the forests which we enjoyed. If you like steam trains then this is for you, i would book well well in advance as when we tried on the day we arrived (to apartment, as you can see the steam from here and hear the sounds) it was fully booked, maybe due to covid and social distancing i'm not sure, but we went on the diesel train which we were happy with. Bathurst Park is dog friendly one side and small human friendly the other, our two loved it. The gardens are impeccably done, everywhere is clean and tidy, our adult kids rode their bikes around while the tired out doggos relaxed and recovered. There is a cafe on site too. All in all if your looking for a peaceful getaway/holiday where you cater for yourself and do as little or as much as you want, then Highbury Coach House is for you. We would stay there again as it suited us so well. 10/10 and 5* across the board from us and the dogs xx
We really appreciate your lovely feedback and we would love to welcome you,your family and your lovely dogs back should you decide to visit us again. Property Owner

The property
The Tack Room is a beautiful, all-ground-floor apartment, set within a converted Georgian coach house and found just moments away from the bustling town of Lydney, making an idyllic base for exploring the borders of South Wales, Gloucestershire and the Wye Valley AONB.
Boasting an enviable hillside position, amongst spectacular landscaped country, this property offers stunning views of the countryside and nearby town and is perfect for a small family or group of friends looking for a relaxing getaway to this wonderful part of the country.
The property benefits from its own private entrance and off-road parking, is furnished with an elegant touch and boasts everything you could possibly need for a self-catering holiday.
Enter the open-plan living room to discover the well-equipped kitchen, where you can make the most of the electric oven, electric hob, microwave, fridge and freeze to chef up some family-favourite recipes that can be enjoyed at the formal dining table.
Afterwards, settle down for the evening within the sitting area, flick on the electric fire to allow a gentle warmth to fill the room as you kick back on the sofa and browse the channels of the TV, the perfect spot for winding down after a busy day exploring.
Concluding the interior are the two bedrooms, comprising of one double and one twin, each boasting a refreshing colour palette and quality linens to ensure that sleep comes easy, as well as access to a sleek Jack-and-Jill en-suite shower room.
Guests are free to wander around the delightful shared grounds, sit, and relax with a cool drink whilst planning your next day’s activities, with enough space to allow your canine companion to roam.
Be sure to meander into the town centre, where you can enjoy a spot of retail therapy before refuelling in one of the pubs, cafés or restaurants, with something to suit all tastes and budgets.
There is plenty to do right on your doorstep including walking and cycling amongst the beautiful countryside of the Royal Forest of Dean, England's largest oak forest, or endeavouring along the Gloucestershire Way and Offa's Dyke Path for even more breath-taking scenery.
As well as activities such as caving, abseiling and a high wire rope course, the area plays host to a number of attractions, including Puzzlewood, the Dean Forest Railway and Chepstow Castle.
Venture outside the village and visit the historic market town of Monmouth or the cathedral city of Gloucester where you can browse an array of shops or go to a selection of pubs and restaurants.
Slightly further afield is the unspoilt Bannau Brycheiniog National Park (Brecon Beacons National Park) and Black Mountains for walking opportunities in Wales or you could marvel at the timbered Tudor houses in the lovely town of Ross-on-Wye.
Based in a superb location with plenty to do, the Tack Room is set in a peaceful environment, ideal for enjoying a break at any time of the year!
The Gardens are suitable for small dogs exercising ,larger dogs would require a visit to the Forest or a walk along the grassy bank along the road side to the public footpath/field at back of gardens, and ponds are unfenced so children to be supervised.

Lydney has a very good range of shops, a leisure centre and sports facilities, as well as pubs, cafes and restaurants serving a wide variety of meals. The magnificent Royal Forest of Dean, England's largest oak forest and an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, boasts numerous trails that can be explored on foot, by bike or on horseback. Caving, abseiling and a high wire rope course are for the more adventurous, whilst fishing, golf, kayaking and canoeing are other popular activities in this unspoilt area. The ancient caves of Clearwell are nearby, as are the Gloucestershire Way and Offa's Dyke Path. Symonds Yat boasts natural scenery and straddles the beautiful River Wye with its magnificent limestone outcrop, popular with climbers, and well-known for its viewpoint. Visit the nearby historic walled town of Chepstow with its impressive Norman Castle and the celebrated racecourse, whilst the pretty market town of Monmouth, with its mixture of elegant Georgian mansions and Victorian courtyards, or the lovely town of Ross-on-Wye with its timbered Tudor houses and delightful riverside walks, both offer excellent shops, pubs and restaurants. The unspoilt Bannau Brycheiniog National Park (Brecon Beacons National Park) and Black Mountains, as well as lovely Cotswold towns and villages are just a little further afield as are the cities of Cheltenham, Gloucester, Cardiff, Newport, and just across the Severn Bridge, Bristol and Bath.
