We came to the Forest of Dean so that our two boys could go cycling at the nearby cycle centre. It was a perfect location to access the forest activities - only 10 minutes away from the centre, so very convenient. The lodge was very well equipped and had everything we needed to be able to cater for ourselves. Nadine was very helpful and knowledgeable about the local area. We would definitely recommend the lodge and make a return visit if we come back to the forest.

Excellent host and a really lovely stay in the spotlessly clean lodge. It is clear that Nadine has considered everything from a guests point of view as we had everything we needed and more. What a beautiful lodge with very stylish fixtures, fittings, artwork and furniture. The gated outdoor area is also lovely. Wanted to stay in Monmouth/Tintern area, but the self-catering accommodation available there was nowhere near as appealing and Forest Cedar Lodge was also much better value for money and within easy reach of Monmouth.

Nothing.

Great communication from Nadine. The property was in an excellent location for my business trip to Cinderford. The property has everything you need and is in a quiet location. The parking space was also very useful. The property is well maintained, clean, and very comfortable. I would definitely return if visiting the area.

There was nothing not to like, everything there that you needed. Very clean and modern. And the treats Nadine left for us was a lovely touch and very much appreciated. They are a lovely family, would highly recommend. Lots of information on places to go,eat etc.

Excellent property; everything you need for a weekend away. The location was great, a short drive and we were wandering through the forest; Puzzlewood is absolutely beautiful, I recommend a visit. The owner was lovely, ensuring the lodge was warm and welcoming for our arrival. Thank you for having us.

Our recent stay at Nadine's place surpassed all expectations. From the moment we arrived, it was evident that meticulous attention to detail had been paid to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable experience. Nadine's home exudes modern elegance, with impeccable cleanliness and all the amenities one could desire. Travelling with young children can often present challenges, but Nadine had thought of everything. Stair gates were installed for their safety, and a delightful array of toys and books awaited their eager exploration. Additionally, the provision of a high chair made meal times a breeze. One of the highlights of our stay was the convenience of the location. Situated just a short drive away from numerous attractions, Nadine's place served as the perfect hub for our adventures. Nadine’s graciously allowed us to utilise their EV charging point at a very reasonable rate. It was very convenient not having to travel for charging the car! Thank you and we hope to be back soon!

A little expensive for this time of the year.

Good size, well laid out, exceptionally cleaned, modern, the little finishing touches……. I could go on and on.

We had the immense pleasure of spending a weekend at Cedar Forest Lodge and it was genuinely one of the best experiences we’ve had. From the moment we arrived, the host went above and beyond to make our stay unforgettable. Their generosity knew no bounds, from offering local tips to suggesting fun activities in the area. The lodge itself felt like a home away from home, complete with top-notch amenities. The host even thoughtfully left the heating on for us, ensuring a warm and welcoming atmosphere. As for the location, it was nothing short of fantastic, offering both tranquillity and accessibility to local attractions. In short, the hospitality, amenities, and location combine to make Cedar Forest Lodge an exceptional place to stay. A heartfelt thank you to the host for making our weekend truly amazing.

Really liked the decor.

Not that I didn’t like the bed (it was comfortable). It’s just that the bedroom is very spacious and could benefit from a larger bed.

It was very well placed for accessing various places in the Forest of Dean. It felt very private and was comfortable. The host was lovely and had provided loads of recommendations for things to do in the area. We went to Harts Barn Tea Room and had the best cream tea ever!

Beautiful place, modern and fresh and a relaxing place to be.

We travelled by public transport, which made it somewhat harder to explore the area, so we rented a car for a couple of days, which made things a lot easier (but this had nothing to do with the quality of our stay at the lodge).

Squeaky clean, looked brand new. As if we were the first guests staying there. Host Nadine was very helpful throughout our stay. Her tips for places to visit made for a wonderful vacation in the Forest of Dean. I can definitely recommended this lodge to families (with younger children) and couples who want to explore the area.

Nothing, couldn’t have been better!

It was absolutely beautiful, exactly as shown in the pictures, I loved the attention to detail, from the colour scheme to the book of things to do and places to eat and visit in the area. The hosts were super accommodating and thoughtful!

We initially drove past the property.

We (2 adults and 2 teenagers) thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Nadine is a thoughtful and welcoming host. Cedar Lodge is very clean, well equipped and comfortable- great for relaxing after a busy day exploring the local area.
