Been staying at forest of dean lodgessince 2010...retrning everyyear..Always had 2 bed golden oak cabin with hot tub log burner but found i jst stayed on ky own last few times so wasting extra bedroom and money.plus the cabins are becoming tatty .and always itchy on sofa and beds .rusty shower bath and cooker digsusting ive seen a massive decline so this year i upgraded to a hideaway one bed to see wat they like. I prefer staying in forest meadow is rubbish to open no privacy etc ..to holiday home forest is so better for privacy nature peace wildlife ..the hideaways are in the meadow and not really hidden? So weird shld be in the forest plus they back onto a public footpath making them less private and hideaway . No logic to this and nothing like hidden however there is no comparrison on inside .the quality the cleanliness the applicances the decor the little touches that make it absoloutly beautiful to stay in.the bed is kingsise quality lovely bedding all dimmable cosy lights his and hers shower 2 sinks a double his and hersbath champagne bucket large fridge freezer and the oven was spotlezz. Stuning carpwt bedroom open plan so you get benwfit of log burner and looking oyt over forest. Egg chair barbecue hot tub table and chairs. I really cannot stress enough the diffrwnce in cabins to all the other cabins however you pay a lot more . Little bit overpriced! No tikka curry on check in and hot tub lid was broke had to have someone out. You get a tv in bedroom which yu dnt get in other cabins but it nevr works constantly trns off complete frustration let dwn and dissapointing surely they knw it keeps doing this then says loading ..shld be checking their tvs are fully working for the price you pay for these cabins..also the knocking of the door on the tuesday 7pm like it was the police awful i go there for peace not to be disturbed or door knokd like a police bust ! First night orderd food for 7pm but nope jst gets in hot tub at 6.20pm and they knock with my food ?? Had to gwt out soaking open door . I do think aftr coming here year aftr year that some things shldnt be happening yearly .and they shld have everuthing runing like clockwork..do not disturb signs shld be issued on arrivial so you can put outside to stop the unwelcome hounding .i pay a lot of money to go there switch off peace quiet nature i dont want to see anyone be disturbd thats why i go there i love the forest the quiet the peace nature wildife relaxin de stressing. But there is always something to complain about .that is preventable . Usually hot tubs get checkd evwry morning by 10 30 in all my years going thats what happns first day it did second day jst got hot tub 2pm sat in room in bathers and next minute a hoy appeard to do hot tub they dnt knock they dnt warn you they dont give you a time and they have full view of in yr cabin i think it disgusting that they can jst appear with no warning this shld be changed to time slots or they knock yr door first yu cnt relax because you knw they coming to do hot tub but 2pm for 2 days runing wen i jst want to relax in cabin etc is not okay. Will i retrn ? Yes .but i wont continue to go and accept all the preventable no need mishaps early food .knocking of door. Impossing anytime on decking not at 800 pound for hideaway i hope they sort these niggles out as it shows yr not runing yr buisiness to yr best potentiol or doing yr job right .surely a manager oversees all this. The xmas tree was much better last year in the seating area of retreat was not there this year so not as cosy xmasy ..i do think by now it shld be runing like clockwork .dog water bowl was always empty in retreat too had to ask . I want to give it 5 stars but every year theres always several issues and its not cheap...i do recommend staying there. But managemnt and staff / jobs need addressing .
