Vacation rentals with lake access in Forest of Dean District

Matt & Neil were amazing end to end! The house we stayed in was gorgeous, well decorated, well equipped and located. With some research (in Feb half term) there was plenty to do & see. We enjoyed local pubs/cafes and went rafting which was so fun! 🤩 The beds were comfy and the hot tub was super clean and lovely! We will go back for sure. Thank you Matt & Neil!

We had a great stay at Nicola’s place. She provided really useful information before we arrived so we could get in easily and felt right at home. The house was unbelievably well equipped, we cooked multiple meals in the kitchen and toys to suit all of our children ranging from 0-8. The cot and toddler bed were set up waiting and had linen which is so helpful! Nicola was very responsive and friendly. The estate has a restaurant on site, but they recommend booking particularly at weekends. There is an amazing outdoor pool, where we spent most of our time. For the indoor pool you need to be bang on time as it gets very busy! A perfect stay for us. Thank you

I've just spent the most wonderful weekend at Liming Lodge. I was looking for somewhere in a beautiful location, where I could spend the weekend of my 50th birthday celebrating with my amazing friends, and Liming Lodge did not disappoint. It's in a fantastic position, with a lovely view of the lake, and we really enjoyed watching the birds feeding outside the lounge doors and the murmuration of starlings over the lake. The lodge itself was brilliantly set up, with seating for everyone, comfy beds and really nicely refurbished bathrooms. Couldn't fault the facilities. We had a fantastic, relaxing weekend and I was very sad to leave. Communication with Sarah and Linda was fantastic, and I can only highly recommend staying at Liming Lodge. You won't regret it!

Lovely place, clean and decorated very nicely. Lots of games etc which was a bonus for the children!

A beautiful, modern lake side house with spacious open plan kitchen and living area with stunning views over the lake. The bedrooms were spacious, beds were comfy and we had everything we needed for our stay. We were pleasantly surprised with birthday treats when we arrived, which were a nice touch. Impeccably clean, and decorated tastefully. Lots to do near by, but it felt secluded enough to enjoy a countryside feel. Thanks for letting us come, we had a great time. James was responsive and helpful when needed.

Di was extremely accommodating and easy to contact. Not only was she friendly but easy to talk to. Her home is absolutely beautiful, actually even better than the pictures. Not only were the surroundings beautiful it’s located nearby some stunning cotswold villages such as bibury. It literally was a home away from home. My mum and sister loved their time away. Would highly recommend.

We really loved our stay, which we booked at short notice at the weekend, so were delighted that it was made possible. Thank you for having us!

Beautiful place to stay, very helpful information folder of the area. You could walk or drive to restaurants/bar. If the weather had been better we would have explored the lakes more. But we got out and about . Very clean and tidy place and everything inside that you could possibly want. We would definitely stay again . Thanks Frannie x

I stayed for a month in Rachel's place as I moved back from abroad and needed a base to get settled back from. Rachel was a great host and always there for support, she even gifted me some homemade flapjacks during my stay The property was exactly as pictured if not slightly bigger, the location was easy to find. You very much feel like you're out in the countryside in Bishop Sutton and the lake is 10 minutes away and it's a lovely walk.

This was our second visit to this amazing Airbnb: It is very central to walk into the heart of Bath with the theatre and lots of restaurants within a few minutes walk. The private parking space is one of the reasons we selected this home. It is cosy and comfortable. Everything you could possibly want. We want to come back in the warmer weather to enjoy sitting in the private courtyard garden. Hosts were very responsive. Would 100% Recommend staying here. Thank you .

The flat is lovely. The views are stunning and the surrounding area great for walks. If you want peace and tranquility this is the place for you. Mandy is very helpful, and quick to respond. I would recommend staying here.

Nice play to stay for large groups, the host was very responsive and answered all of my questions

Beautiful apartment with everything u need. Right next to the ocean, u could hear the waves in the night coming in. Would recommend :)

We had a lovely stay, the apartment is spacious and has great views of the lake which you can take in from the floor to ceiling windows or from the huge terrace.

Geoff was the perfect host and we had everything we needed during the stay. The apartment is tastefully decorated and well-stocked - including with some delicious home-made muesli and biscuits - thank you Geoff! It has all the convenience of being situated next to a really handy retail park whilst also backing onto peaceful greenery and a lovely lake which you overlook from the leafy balcony - this was a really nice surprise! The apartment is modern and well-laid out and feels really safe and secure. We'd definitely stay there again. Highly recommended!

Sloped floors, exposed beams, low ceilings? Yes. All of those. Also fun, clean, Well located, and with ample space. Perfect for us this trip. Recommended provided you understand that this is an old building with lots of character. Host is great and we had no issues.

Honestly one of the best Airbnb stays I’ve experienced. Cliff and Emma are great in all aspects of the journey, from beginning to end. If you need anything they will do their utmost to provide. Highly recommend and would stay again in the future. Thank you

Travelled here for a New Years Eve get together with friends. Lovely house, actually bigger than it looks in the photos. Friendly host. Surrounding views outstanding with good view of lake. Very clean and modern deco. Pub next door worth popping into for a drink. Locals proved to be very friendly. Good location for travelling to places such as cheddar. Would highly recommend staying here.

One of my favourite ever stays, Susan is just wonderful and was on hand for everything we could possible need, both in terms of advice and practical items. the cottage is super cosy/warm, extremely comfortable, genuinely just feels like a home, an absolute pleasure to come back to after a day exploring in the fresh air. Would head back any time. Brilliant xx

Lovely place to stay. Clean and warm. We had a fantastic one night stay and would have liked to stay longer. The welcome pack of food was greatly appreciated by the kids. We enjoyed playing board games in the living room.

Lovely peaceful cottage with all the amenities you could need. Very relaxing. Sitting out on the balcony with views of the lake was the perfect switch off needed. Beds are super comfy and the kitchen has everything you could need. Small gestures like supplying shampoo, hairdryers etc helps the ease of packing. Nice touches with the board games too. Communication with Chris and Alexandra was effective and fast. Very friendly. The estate this is on makes this place suitable for families as well as couples. We used the outdoor pool, tennis courts, football pitch and sat in the resturant for a coffee but the beauty of this place is the cottage is tucked away from it all so if you want to switch off from it all you can. We took a 40 minute walk into Ashton Keynes following the Thames trail. Very easy to find and follow. Thank you Chris and Alexandra. We will be recommending to others.

An absolutely charming, well equipped cottage. As a young family the cottage was perfectly set up for our toddler with everything we could possibly need and more. She particularly loved playing with the toys you had left! Jason is the perfect host. Always super responsive, great recommendations and really thoughtful. Thank you so much for having us.

Had a lovely stay with my family, cottage is very cosy and has everything you need for a lovely comfortable stay. Local walks, cafe and restaurants that were recommended were lovely too. Hosts are great and community very friendly.

Ideal little cottage in a fab location. Minutes away from wonderful walks, friendly pubs and shoos. Clare was really helpful and quick to respond. Will definitely stay again! x
