We had a great half term holiday at Deer Park farm house. Tracey was very helpful and friendly.
The house is very well equipped and spacious. The garden is wonderful, our 2 little dogs loved it! We made full use of the hot tub too.

As soon as we arrived we are all in awe of how stunning this property is and once we stepped inside we weren't disapointed! The house was immaculate and beautifully decorated, just stunning in every way! We spoke to Tracey the housekeeper on a couple of occasions and she was really helpful and kind! The location is great because you feel totally secluded yet the village is just down the road with some beautiful country pubs! We had the best weekend ever and I would highly recommend this property to any group of friends or family looking for a peaceful getaway!

This is a stunning property in a fantastic location for exploring the forest of dean or further afield the Cotswolds.

The only downside was the mould on the walls in one of the three bedrooms - not a little bit but a substantial amount of it across the walls. Otherwise every other room was perfect and a great base for a stay, but this mouldy room had a smell too it and I wouldn't want to stay there again unless that was resolved as it's a potential health hazard.

We did flag the mould to the property management company, they weren't exactly apologetic. Just a 'thanks for informing us'. ‍♂️

I hope they resolve it soon as this property is stunning if they do.

We had a very special weekend here celebrating my 50th birthday. The house and grounds are stunning - even better than the photos! Only thing that was slightly disappointing was the lack of mugs and quality of cookware & utensils. We raised this with the booking agent and they’ve assured us it will be looked at. Don’t hesitate to book though! It’s almost perfect

We had a lovely week here, in this beautiful quiet cottage. The gardens are lovely too. We liked that each room had access to its own bathroom and the kitchen space was huge.

House was well equipped and comfortable. Very peaceful and large enclosed garden. Tracey the property manager was really helpful and welcoming. There is only one under the counter fridge and it is too small for 6 adults who are self catering.

The house is beautifully decorated and equipped to a very high standard with every thing that you need whether you want to eat out or stay in and cook. The gardens are large and well maintained and surrounding country side is beautiful

One thing I would say it that I think some door stops would be useful as all of the doors have fairly strong self closes on them and they slam every time you go in and out of a door.

Also the outside furniture doesn't really fit in with the quality of the rest of the property and there are only 4 chairs when the property is for up to 6 people. It would be very nice to have a bistro set that you could sit and eat at and then also some cushioned sofas / chairs that you can relax in. The house has been done to such a lovely standard and this just seems to be a bit lacking.

Having said that we had a wonderful time and can't wait to come and stay again.

We had such a lovely time here. Lovely house nicely furnished enough space for the family.

If you are bringing small children there are no child plates cups cutlery etc which is not a big deal. There is a narrow travel cot and a high chair which is helpful. There are things close by for kids which was great.

Garden space is lovely. Hot tub good quality and a great addition.

We would recommend!

We had a lovely stay at Deer Park Farmhouse. It was situated in a beautiful and very quiet location. The rooms were a good size, with generous sized en-suites. The garden was lovely and the whole place was very dog friendly.

The house was missing a couple of items advertised, there was not a hairdryer in the house (although three were advertised) and there was also not a BBQ available as advised in the description. During our stay, there was a water leak through the ceiling which we reported. Although the plumber was called very quickly, it was a shame that we had to wait in for him on two occasions but understand that these things do happen.

We would happily visit again! Thanks for a great stay!

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of your recent stay at Deer Park Farmhouse. We are very glad to read that you enjoyed your stay however disappointed to read that that there was not a hairdryer or BBQ. We have spoken to the housekeeper who wishes you had made contact with them, as they would have been able to supply a hairdryer, the BBQ was put in the shed due to the weather and they would have been happy to get this out for you.

A perfect weekend away with friends

We were a group of 6 guests who stayed at Deer Park Farmhouse in January. The house was absolutely perfect for our stay. It is a
very spacious & bright property, having clearly been recently renovated to an excellent standard. It had all the essentials that we could have needed throughout our stay & we were all very comfortable/happy. We would all highly recommend a stay & hope to return. There are 2 x pubs within walking distance. We went on beautiful walks both from the property itself, but also from a short drive away. The 2 x dogs within our group had the time of their lives - providing the front gate was shut then the garden was fully enclosed. The hot tub was a lovely treat & something we all enjoyed! Thank you for a fabulous stay.
