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.
