3 Bedroom Cottage in Cinderford

Nestled in a peaceful spot opposite the historic St John’s Church, 24 at St John’s is a stylish and spacious cottage perfect for families, friends and furry companions.

With three bedrooms and two bathrooms, this beautifully refurbished former miner’s cottage sleeps up to six guests in comfort. The open-plan kitchen and dining space is fully equipped for easy self-catering, with a breakfast bar that doubles as a handy workspace – complete with USB ports and fast Wi-Fi.
After a day of exploring, unwind in the cosy snug lounge with reclining chairs, a Smart TV and a crackling log burner. There’s also a sunroom with extra seating and another Smart TV, so everyone can find their own little corner of calm.
Step outside to your private, enclosed garden – perfect for sunny lunches, barbecues, or evenings soaking in the secluded hot tub beneath the stars.

Whether you’re planning a family escape, a celebration, or a relaxing break in nature, 24 at St John’s is a welcoming, well-equipped retreat where memories are made.
Step into the heart of the Forest of Dean — a place where time slows, nature takes the lead, and adventure is always just outside your front door. Meander through ancient woodland, hike to breathtaking viewpoints, or cycle shaded trails with birdsong as your soundtrack. From the mythical beauty of Puzzlewood to the inspiring Sculpture Trail and the dramatic views at Symonds Yat Rock, every path tells a story.
After a day of discovery, the choice is yours: settle into a welcoming country pub for a hearty meal crafted from local produce, or return to your cosy cottage where a glowing log burner and bubbling hot tub beneath the stars await. Whether you're here for the adventure, the food, the peace, or all three, this magical corner of the country invites you to find your freedom.
Tucked away in the tranquil heart of the Forest of Dean, you're never too far from adventure or a change of pace. Gloucester is just 35 minutes away, with its historic docks and cathedral, while the elegant spa town of Cheltenham — on the edge of the Cotswolds — is around 45 minutes by car. Head west and you'll reach the Herefordshire border in just 25 minutes at Ross-on-Wye, or travel a little further to explore the charm of Hereford City in under an hour. South Wales is also within easy reach, with Monmouth about 45 minutes away and the stunning Wye Valley and Symonds Yat just 40 minutes from our doorstep. And if the sea calls, pack a picnic and head to the coast — Weston-super-Mare and Porthcawl are your nearest beaches, but our favourite is Newton Beach in Porthcawl. With its sand dunes, sea views, and dog-friendly shoreline all year round, it’s the perfect spot for a windswept wander or a sunny day out with the whole family — four-legged friends included.

Summary: The beds were comfortable, and as 3 friends, it was great to have a room each and nice space.The living area was spacious and comfortable too, and lots of space in the kitchen for food preparation and cooking. It was just a very short walk to nature, a really lovely area to be in.We'd gave preferred the hot tub a bit warmer, we couldn't turn it up, but of course, if we were that bothered about it we'd have contacted the hosts.

Summary: We throughly enjoyed a long weekend here, the house is well equipped and very nicely furnished with space for all 6 of our adult family. Kitchen had all the essential items and plenary of space for everyone to sit at the table . The Hot Tub was a lovely bonus after our days out. Zoe and James are great hosts and answered all questions and sent lots of information about the area so we could plan before arriving. We give it 5 Stars.

Summary: We had a lovely long weekend stay in this property. It was clean and well stocked with everything that we required as a group of 6. Our two kids had plenty of space and loved the garden! Comfy beds, great hot tub and easy communication throughout would definitely stay again if we are in the area. Only downside was that there was a lack of amenities within easy walking distance with toddlers but we had a car so wasn’t a massive problem and probably would be fine for adults!

Summary: We had a lovely short stay at this fantastic holiday home. The accommodation was very clean and well stocked with everything you will need. Ted (cocker spaniel) loved his toy and the added bonus of having dog food/water bowls was great! Our teenage girls loved the breakfast bar and comfy stools and couldn't keep them out of the hot tub!! The cottage is situated near the forest of Dean which was perfect for what we wanted. The hosts were fantastic with sending all the details of our trip and it was lovely to have a list of local dog friendly places to eat. Highly recommend The Red Hart Inn! I will be recommending this place to family and friends and hope to visit here again. Thank you Zoe and James.
