"Thank you for sharing your lovely rental with us for our break away."
Great location, stunning views from the back garden and the hot tub was enjoyed by all. Hopefully we will be back soon.

"We recently returned from a short break staying at Ranbir House and had a great time."
The house was modern, clean, comfortable and well equipped. The welcome note and package was a lovely surprise and the information pack was helpful and well thought out by the owner's. We made use of the hot tub, which after a days walking in the nearby Forest of Dean was a great way to relax. We visited the local pubs and walked to The Yew Tree for dinner one night and the food and service was great. We would recommend Ranbir House as a great place to stay.

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Brilliant Family Getaway at Sykes Cottages' Ranbir House We recently had the pleasure of staying at Ranbir House through Sykes Cottages, and it was nothing short of a brilliant family getaway!"
The house exceeded our expectations, providing everything we needed for a memorable holiday. The games room was a highlight, especially for our three little boys who couldn’t get enough of the arcade machine. The table tennis table was another excellent addition, keeping everyone entertained. And the hot tub? Absolutely magnificent – the perfect way to unwind after a day of exploring. We also loved rediscovering old favorites with the extra board games provided; it was such a fantastic touch. The views were simply breathtaking. Enjoying breakfast and dinner while overlooking the rolling hills and watching sheep graze was a serene experience that added to the overall sense of peace and relaxation. The stream running through the garden added an unexpected but much-appreciated layer of well-being that we didn’t even realize we needed. There was so much to do in the surrounding area that we couldn’t fit it all in! We explored Puzzlewood, took on a family bike trail in the Forest of Dean, and visited some great award-winning pubs. A special mention to Farmer Boys for a delicious meal out, and the Forest Bakery in Longhope was an absolute gem. We even managed to cook a Sunday roast with local produce, and the cottage had everything we needed to make it a success. We were a group of two families, one with five members and one with three, and there was ample space for everyone. The bedrooms were spacious, clean, and met all our needs perfectly. With so much more to explore, we’re already planning our return. Ranbir House is a five-star retreat that we would recommend to any family looking for a perfect countryside escape.
Thank you so much for your lovely comments. We are so pleased to hear that you and all the guests have thoroughly enjoyed your stay at Ranbir House. Both the Forest Bakery and Farmers Boy Inn are real gems in Longhope. The arcade machine is a recent addition so we are glad it was a hit, as we are always looking to improve the stay for our guests. We look forward to welcoming you back soon for another great stay! Property Owner

"The property is in a lovely location and was ideal for our plans."
We found the property lacking in a number of areas for the price and compared to other properties we have previously visited. The property felt unfinished and rushed before our stay. There was a lack of bedroom furniture, one pillow per person on on the bed, poorly fitting curtains (just covered the windows in some rooms), the property is advertised for eight people but only had a dining table for six, lack of saucepans (only three provided, no tea or coffee pot, the microwave is not secured and nearly fell out, glass in the oven door was not fixed in. Oddly BBQ and garden chairs stored in the kitchen. This will probably be lovely property but needs finishing. We feel we overpaid for the property given the improvements needed
We really appreciate your feedback Paul and and are pleased the location worked well for your plans. We are sorry to hear that you felt the property seemed unfinished and have spent time addressing any issues that required attention. Property Owner
