"The property is a beautiful huge house, it was spotlessly clean and very comfortable."
The views are just incredible. We went for a reunion, but It would be perfect for a family get together. The garden is huge and has a lovely play area for children. The owners have thought of everything.

"Great location and facilities."
Very clean and comfortable. The hot tub was enjoyed by both the teenagers and the adults. It was lovely sitting in it at night looking up at the stars. The firepit, bbq and pool table were also great additions. The house had everything we needed for a lovely week away.

"A lovely house with beautiful views across the estuary."
Plenty of room for our two families to stay (9 people), comfortable and with excellent facilities. Well situated for loads of exploring with many attractions within a 20 min drive.

"A generous and thoughtfully equipped property - it was ideal for our group of 9."
The setting was beautiful- especially the views from the hot tub. Donna responded quickly to queries. The area is full of activities and attractions in the Forest of Dean. Thank you

"A lovely spacious house in a beautiful setting, perfect for our family gathering."
Everything we needed was provided. Our granddaughters loved the swings and the 4 year old is now a hot tub fan! Watching the lambs in the fields was a favourite activity for everyone. A really fantastic place to stay.
-
"This is truely a fantastic property."
A beautiful remote location with amazing views, but also within easy reach of places to go and see. The house has everything you could need and is a real home from home with the added bonus of the hot tub for some extra relaxation. We were a party of 6, but even maxed to capacity there would still be plenty of room for everyone to spread out and have some space. Highly recommend.

"A great house."
There were 8 of us staying (3 generations) and the house was perfect for us. It's extremely spacious and with 2 dining rooms, 2 lounges and the pool room, it meant we could have different things going on without disturbing others. The pool table was popular, as was the hot tub. The kitchen was very well equipped and we enjoyed several home cooked family meals. All in all, a great house. One tiny quibble - we couldn't get the radiator in the twin room to work.
-
"An amazing house for our family get together."
Very comfortable, everything we needed was on hand. Wonderful house everyone who stayed wants to go back again. Highly recommended

"Lovely place, spectacular views and very friendly and helpful host!"

"What a stunning house in a beautiful location, the views are spectacular."
The park at the bottom of the garden gave a safe area for the kids, their adventures there have been brillant. Although the big hot tub was out of action the owners hired a smaller one which did the trick and I spent every morning and night relaxing in there again admiring the views. Great to have the owners next door, they gave top tips for visiting different areas. Loads of kitchen ware to help use put in big family meals. We a enjoyed watching & hearing the sheep on the farm. The house big, lots of room again the kids loved running around play hid and seek. Plenty of throws to keep you warm on an evening as you sit in the large front room. The games room although the cues had no nibs it didn't stop our family pool competition with a jiggle of the snooker / pool balls to complete a set for the game. As a family 9 in total this house has been brillant lots of memories has been made.

"This is a lovely, spacious house and is extremely well equipped."
Indoors the rooms are large and well furnished. Outdoors there is lots of room room for the children to play, including an excellent climbing frame/swing (and a pool table in the games room). It is in a marvellous setting, where we could sit out and admire the wide, long views over the Severn river, and the countryside beyond, with just the sound of the birds and the sheep in the fields, but it is not in the back of beyond. Littledean, with pub/restaurants, an excellent fish and chip shop and a convenience store are 1.5 miles away, and it is only a 10 minute drive to Cinderford with its Tesco superstore and butchers shop (selling lamb from Moor Farm). The attractions of the glorious Forest of Dean are all within a 20 minute drive, with lots of walking and cycling for all abilities plus adventures like Going Ape. It is only 25 minutes to historic Gloucester, which also boasts impressive shopping. There are also walks starting right from the back door. We really appreciate owners Donna and Barry looking after us. Donna met us on arrival and gave us a guided tour. After that, they were always accessible for advice, but were in no way intrusive. All in all we had a fantastic holiday, and would thoroughly recommend Moors Farm.

"We really enjoyed our stay at Moors Farm."
Such a peaceful spot, and convenient for activities such as climbing, kayaking, cycling, running and walking which the younger members of our party enjoyed. So much space in the house and garden. We loved the magnificent views, and the hot tub. Such welcoming and helpful owners too. A very relaxing week.
-
"We were all very impressed with the property."
It is one of the best we have stayed in over the years. The house was very spacious and comfortable and the views over the surrounding countryside were absolutely beautiful.
-
"We had a wonderful few days at Moors Farm with three generations of the family."
The little ones loved the playground and the sheep, and we all loved the hot tub with its glorious views over the upper reaches of the Severn Estuary. We will be returning!
-
"Moors Farm was perfect for our family gathering & 60th birthday celebration."
The property is spacious very clean & well equipped. There is a very nice playhouse with swing, slide & climbing board which our granddaughter loved to play on. The views are stunning and there is so much to explore in the area. The owner Donna was very welcoming & helpful when we arrived. I highly recommend staying at Moors Farm & we hope to return for another family holiday.

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay over the new year ."
My grandchildren so enjoyed the house because it’s so roomy they could go to play in peace away from adults
-
"An excellent property."
It was warm,spacious and very well equipped. A very good choice for a Christmas break for our family of three generations. We wanted for nothing and the decorations were delightful (TWO Christmas trees!) The owners are friendly and most helpful. We really appreciated all the goodies that were left for us. I

"The house and grounds are amazing, every need is catered for, for a large group it's perfect, can't wait to go back."
-
"Beautiful farmhouse."
Clean and tidy with everything we needed. The hot tub was fab. The only slight negative was that some of the beds weren't that comfortable.
-
"A lovely spacious house."
We went as three families with 18, 14, and 9 year old and there were plenty of games , videos etc to keep them occupied. We all enjoyed the hot tub, and bbq. Lots of space in the garden. Beware of the pet lamb though he ate my patio rose the children bought me. We will probably laugh about it for a long time. Donna is a gem very helpful.
-
"Absolutely loved our stay at Moors Farm."
The owners were so welcoming. The house was very comfortable and extremely well equipped. Countryside views were outstanding and we loved sharing the garden with the sheep. There were plenty of attractions in the surrounding area to keep all three generations happy. Cannot recommend it highly enough, and we hope to visit again soon.
-

We were made to feel very welcome from the outset by the owners. We had a lovely stay here & would love to return.
-
"Absolutely fantastic cottage in a beautiful setting."
Fully equipped (apart from a pizza cutter) and fantastic for family get together…..relaxing surrounds and great to see working farm next door. If I stayed for more than a long weekend I would like to see a tumble dryer but apart from that absolutely no complaints at all.
-
"Beautiful house in an equally beautiful area."
Donna the owner is a lovely lady . So welcoming. Little dean is lovely. The Belfry a local bar / hotel is a quirky one with very welcoming staff. All in all our stay was enjoyed by all of us. No complaints at all. Also the booking agents at sykes cottages were all lovely. So helpful.
-
"We absolutely loved our stay at Moors Farm."
The pictures just do not do it’s justice. There is plenty of space, all the equipment you need and the added touches were hugely welcomed. The owner was fantastic and checking us in, giving recommendations of local things to do and letting our youngest member make friends with their friendly sheep. Our favourite part was of course the hot tub with its magnificent view over the water.
-
"This property is fabulous for a family get away."
There are lots of rooms to accommodate everyone. The games room and hot tub were popular with all age ranges. The kitchen is well fitted and has everything you could ask for. The owner has thought of most things you could possibly want. My grandchildren loved all the hiding places for Hide & Seek
-
"We had a fantastic holiday over Christmas and the house was decorated beautifully."
The house was perfect for a large family get together with lots of space for all generations. Donna, the host, was very friendly and went above and beyond to ensure we had a lovely stay. All the extra little touches were very thoughtful. We had a wonderful time and hope to go back again.
-
"We had a fantastic long weekend stay at Moors Farm."
The property was exactly as we hoped: very well equipped, perfectly clean and incredibly spacious and comfortable. Donna kindly showed us around on check in and we had no issues at the property whatsoever all weekend. Would happily stay again as a large group.
-
"Firstly, I would like to thank Donna, our Host, for a lovely warm welcome when we got there."
She took us around the cottage and explained everything in detail. The cottage itself was beautiful, got lots of character and I would personally say, looked way better than the pictures here. You have to see this place in person, it is amazing, with open fields in the back, beautiful sunrise from the garden, peaceful and very cozy. It is well equipped with essentials and more. Fantastic hot tube in the garden, perfect for a nice evening or even if you fancy sitting in it and enjoying the lovely sunrise. It is not far from the town and local shops. Perfect for a large group. In fact, we are already planning another visit to this lovely cottage soon.
-
"Lovely house, stunning views."
The photos don't do it justice. We were a group of 10 Mums. All said they would come back. Nice big hot tub.
-
"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Moors Farm - it is a lovely family home, with plenty of space for everyone, very well equipped and comfortable, and spotlessly clean."
We had everything we needed for a relaxing break. The views from the house are fantastic, and the location is great.
-
"We were a party of three households: my wife and I, and both of our sons and their young families."
The layout and spaciousness of the property was very good for us, with four children under the age of 7. Lots of room to run around in the garden. Possible to have an adults' quiet(er) sitting room as well as a more bustling one for children. Nice little touches, such as tree-lights in the garden, coming on automatically in the evening. Advice: keep the entrance gates shut if you don't want sheep poo on the lawn.
-
"Absolutely beautiful house and land surrounding, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay."
Donna and Barry are brilliant and accommodating hosts. Us and the children loved meeting Jolene and Dolly too (the lambs)! We will definitely be staying there again.
-
"Overall very good."
some minor comments, although the overall cleanliness of the house was good, the small fridge was a little dirty inside and the door shelving was cracked and hence collected dirt. For the price paid we felt this should have been replaced some time ago. The main fridge was reasonably clean but had clearly not been wiped down inside. The rest of the house was fine. Again , a small point but a radio in the kitchen area would have been nice. the location is very idyllic but not very practical to walk to the village.
-
"A lovely property, perfect for our family break."
Plenty of space for both relaxing and dining and had everything we needed. The location on the farm was great, our daughter loved seeing the sheep and lambs in the fields. The owners were lovely, very approachable and helpful. We had waited a long time for this family break and it did not dissapoint.
-
"This was amazing with some outstanding views of the estuary"
-
"We had an amazing weekend from start to finish."
Owner was lovely, she met us and showed us around showing us how everything work. House was lovely and views breath taking. Cant wait to return.
-
"Very helpful and friendly hosts who made sure we would enjoy our stay with them."
The House was well equipped for all our needs and it was nice to move between different size lounges. Great views over the Severn estuary.
-
"We had a lovely relaxing time at Donna and Barry's house."
The house has stunning panoramic views that looked across Gloucestershire and the River Severn. The house was lovely, very spacious and had everything we needed and wanted from a holiday home. Hosts were excellent and made us very welcome and felt very approachable if we had any issues (which we didn't). Hot Tub was a lovely addition which we used multiple times every day, the hot tub also looked out onto the river Severn and Gloucestershire. Light pollution was also low which meant also good for stargazing from the hot tub. We had a Fantastic time and hope to return in the future. Thank you again Donna and Barry.
