The entrance way still has the original stone work, which gives the property character. On the ground floor you have three double bedrooms which are all very light and airy. The living/dining room and modern kitchen are situated on the first floor, and on the second floor there is a great space that has been designed perfectly for a children’s play area, with games, bean bags, a TV and Playstation 2.

Upstairs you have two, well-proportioned and well-equipped double bedrooms, one with the ability to be set up as a twin room.
The Chicken Coop (UK12137) is all on one level and has been finished to a high standard, and is the perfect getaway to kick back and relax in. You enter the property through a small porch and are instantly met by a large spacious kitchen area which is modern and fully equipped. The living area has a lovely wood burner which gives a glowing warmth to the property in the winter months. Both bedrooms are fitted with TV’s and offer a high level of comfort, and there is also a wet room giving easier access to facilities. Outside, there is a very large garden that is shared with one other property, but there is plenty of space for everyone to enjoy. There is also an interconnecting door that connects to The Old Granary, perfect for large groups.
The property is nestled in the village of Hewelsfield and there is plenty to see and do in the surrounding area.

Beautiful quiet location with spacious rooms and a well equipped kitchen. We loved that it was decorated with a Christmas tree and the fresh flowers were a welcoming touch.

Great well-equipped house on a farm in Hewelsfield, near Lydney. Comfortable beds, shower room and bathroom - house is very well cared for and spotless. Very quiet location with lots of interesting places nearby to visit. Local shops about 2 miles away in Alvington and St Brivals and bigger shops in Chepstow and Lydney (both about 6 miles away).

Lovely 3-storey cottage in Hewelsfield near the Forest of Dean, with some lovely walks nearby. The cottage was spotlessly clean, with a shower room and a bathroom. The beds were very comfortable and all bedrooms had their own TV's. Good well-equipped kitchen with a dishwasher :)
