About Time Cottage, Parkend

We were really impressed with About time Cottage. As a group of 4 couples meeting for a reunion and celebrating a big birthday. We loved its location ,decor and the fact that it was a comfortable sociable space . We even had a cookery party on Saturday . The fact that there was a pub within walking distance and walks from the door was great . We enjoyed going a little further afield to the sculpture trail and for an amazing Sunday lunch at the TudorFarmhouse Farmhouse . There was so much more to do if we d had time ! The communication from Lisa was a huge bonus and much appreciated x

Absolutely amazing property to stay! We had a great time celebrating a joint 60th birthday with family and friends. Excellent communication from the owner and overall such a pleasant stay. Thank you so much!

About Time provides everything you need for a fabulous group break. The accommodation is superb. All bedrooms are lovely and three out of the five are ensuite the remaining two share which is perfectly fine. The facilities in the bathrooms are excellent. The space on the first and main living area is enormous. We were 10 nine adults and one child so much space for enjoying all the facilities there. The feng shui is great lots of natural light, windows, free flow of movement across the floor and up and down the spiral staircase has a lovely texture and colour and gives never ending delight. We made full use of the excellent kitchen to cater every meal for our 5 day stay tonnes of fridge space, tonnes of equipment, glassware, cutlery and even a hostess trolley which was pretty useful for the main roast! Nothing to my notice was missing and loads of surface space to work and chat and drink bucks fizz simultaneously. Walk from the door into the forest, or short hops in the car for a castle Chepstow castle incredible half day out, farmshop, market town or whatever you feel like enjoying. Warm as toast at all times with the underfloor heating, hot water aplenty for all. The shop and cafe next door provide a great offering all round and a Sainsbury's order to the door works brilliantly. We certainly hope to return and send our thanks to our host for such a gorgeous home, and very swift and helpful communication throughout. Book this, you won't be disappointed!

Fabulous house. So well equipped, comfortable, warm, lashing vs of hot water. Perfect holiday home for a family of 6 adults and 3 children. Would t fault it. Great communication with owner and housekeeper. Lots to do in area. Kids loved Santa steam train and Chepstow Castle.

An absolutely beautiful house, perfect for family gatherings. Was spotlessly clean and had everything you needed. There was a lovely welcome pack too with some essentials. Great location for exploring the local area. A shop, pub and the steam train station all within walking distance. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend.

Lovely house, we had a fabulous weekend for my 60th. We all loved it especially the pool table. Very central for nearby walks. The Fountain inn just round the corner is a lovely pub with great food.

We loved this holiday home clean spacious and well stocked. The staircase is like a work of art. Lisa really took care of us during our stay, and was easy to contact.

Aboutime Cottage was perfect for a large family reunion, with excellent facilities for cooking and plenty of room for socialising. The location in Parkend was great with beautiful forest walks, a steam train ride, a village shop, cafe and 2 good pubs on the doorstep.

About Time Cottage is a lovely property. Very spacious upstairs where the lounge, dining room and games room are in an open plan environment. The kitchen, which is really quite large, has all amenities needed. The bedrooms are comfortable with plenty of room. Our family loved staying here and would highly recommend it to anyone wanting to visit the Forest of Dean. Personally we would go back again in a heartbeat.

Thank you for a fantastic stay. The house was beautiful, well equipped and comfortable. We loved the pool table and table football. Lovely location for exploring the Forest of Dean. Great communication from Lisa. Couldnt have asked for more.

We had a great holiday here. The only thing I would mention is that if you have an old dog they will not be able to manage the spiral staircase. We knew about this in advance and it wasn't a big issue as we just took our dog out of the front door and up the steps to the side of the house and in through the kitchen. The garden is secure for dogs.

The cottage was lovely and beautifully prepared with milk, tea, coffee, sugar and biscuits for us. Well appointed with everything we needed. Lits of seating areas inside and out. We would definitely come again.

About Time Cottage was very well presented , very clean and fully equipped . We had a lovely weekend there . Pub , post office and coffee shop within easy walking distance , plenty of parking and very pretty area .

We stayed 3rd 5th May for our joint hen do and would definitely love to come back. The property was out of this world with so many facilities, games, comforts and beautiful scenery. So much provided at the property we didn't go without. The host was amazing and even managed to get the property ready early for us. This was definitely a place for us to have a relaxed time before our big day.

We had a lovely long weekend at About Time Cottage. Facilities were excellent in a lovely village location, cant fault it.

Lovely house in a great location for exploring the Forest of Dean. Everything was spotlessly clean and communication with the property owner was faultless. There are two pubs within easy walking distance and they both offer good food and are family friendly. The cafe and the ice cream shed just along the road were hits with the whole family too. So much to do and see in the surrounding area. Fabulous!

A lovely house for 5 older couples or families. Very comfortable, spacious and very well equipped, if self catering. Although we ate out every evening. Two or three pub restaurants close by and within driving distance in Lydney & Coleford. We particularly liked the Rising Sun, Moseley Green. We were lucky that the weather was fantastic giving a chance to explore the Forest of Dean and Severn Estuary.

Fantastic property in a great location

Fantastic property with everything you need. The bath upstairs is a luxury! The open plan living area is great for larger groups. This was our second stay. I can recommend the pub down the road for food too

This was perfect for our family group. We all really enjoyed out time here..Parking was ample. Cottage was well arranged for our group. Clean and comfortable.

Lovely property, modern and clean. Great communication with Lisa before and after check in.

Words can't describe how perfect this property was for our weekend away. Pictures don't do justice, it's a really big property. Clean and tidy, lovely extras milk, biscuits etc were a lovely touch. Communication excellent, friendly and approachable. Honestly the whole experience surpassed expectations Would 1000 stay again and wished we had booked for longer Few maintenance things need doing One half of oven doesn't work, lots of missing bulbs around property, football table very unstable we didn't use as too afraid it would break

An enjoyable break with family. Spacious house,lovely and warm,walks into the forest from the door and a superb cafe 2 doors away. Shelves or baskets in the bathrooms would be an asset

This is a superb house and so much bigger than the photos would suggest. The living area is huge and all the bedrooms are very large too. It has all the equipment you would need and everything worked faultlessly, aside from the odd light bulb, but nobody minds that. It is a fabulous house with loads of parking we had 4 cars parked, pet friendly, lovely personal touches and high quality already planning a return visit.

The house itself is very nice and as described, the issue with the house is the burglar alarm. We experienced approximately 10 power cuts through the night in the storm, after the power came back, the burglar alarm sounded every time. There are two burglar alarms, one in the hallway downstairs and one in the master bedroom where we had a 4 month old baby sleeping. We felt we had to leave a day early after getting no sleep. The burglar alarm needs either a battery back up or to be disabled for guests as a neighbour told us when we were leaving on the Sunday that the alarm sounding is not uncommon and that he often hears it sounding.

What a beautiful house. Very clean and had everything available that we could possibly need, even milk and a few other bits available for our arrival. Lovely experience to see the steam trains pass through the train station, just up the street. We would definitely recommend a stay here. Thank you

Great cottage. Pictures don't do it justice. Really spacious and comfortable. Well equipped with all you need to cook. Two fridges and separate freezer. Ample cleaning products. We arrived when it was dark and the cottage being lit and warm was very welcoming. Amie contacted me on the day to check how we wanted the beds made up. Handy convenience store a few mins away for forgotten essentials! We had a lovely 3 night stay with friends. The Woodman pub serves great food. Lots of lovely walks nearby.

This was an excellent stay. We loved the house, and especially the pool table. It was great for our dog too, with a safe enclosed garden.

Loved the property and we had a great weekend. The only small niggle strange thing was that all the wine glasses were made of plastic. It was out of sorts with the otherwise top end nature of the property.

Excellent cottage, situated in a lovely, countryside location and close to a lot of great activities. Cottage was welcoming, and nicely laid out in terms of the rooms, lounge and upper en suite. Lovely pubs within walking distance. Would highly recommend for family holidays and friendship groups. Couldnt find a fault!

About Time Cottage is a real gem of a place to stay. It is in such a lovely village, the cafe next door is great and the small village shop is well supplied. The house has everything you could possibly need, it's comfortable, well arranged and great for families. The spiral stair case was not an issue for the little ones in our party. We'd highly recommend a stay here.

Lovely family holiday at this superb cottage, there was nine of us and we were very comfortable, large rooms, well equipped, Such good communication from owner and her deputy. One tiny tiny point , a couple of more board games would have been the icing on the cake, I would have taken some had I have known . Eg, connect 4 , frustration, battleships.etc

Fantastic accommodation for our family group celebrating grandparents special anniversary. Such for kids to do indoors as well as out. Beautifully designed interior. Felt really special. Everything you might need.

This is a beautiful property set in a lovely area with so much to see and do. As an extended family of 10 it was perfect to have so much space to be together and yet not feel crowded. We enjoyed the pool and football tables. The beds were very comfy. All just perfect and we really hope we can all return again very soon.

A lovely position for a well designed house that comfortably sleeps 10. Plenty of room and well furnished. Delightful village with loads to do for adults and children either from the village or within a short drive.

Just celebrated my 50th birthday weekend here & the cottage was perfect for what we wanted! The house was even better than the pictures & provided all that we needed, plenty of space for us all & the games room & living area was great and fun for all! We had 2 dogs with us and the garden was secure & great for them. A lovely weekend to remember & would definitely recommend the cottage.

Our group of 10 friends rented this property for a week away over Easter and we all had the best time. Lovely property in a quaint village nice and secluded but still close enough to the bustle of Gloucester for a day trip. Walks around the Forest of Dean and Wye Valley were aplenty and the open common area on the 1st floor was ideal for a hangout area. Would definitely recommend, likely to think about coming back!

Great house for our family gathering. There were quite a few lightbulbs not working especially the top bathroom The downstairs bedrooms were cold, we were in the top one which was hot & we couldnt seem to adjust the temperature. Thank you for the welcome goodies!

Thank you for a lovely stay. My mother really enjoyed her 70th birthday there and the kids loved having a new place for hide and seek!
