“WONDERFUL PLACE(s) for MUSICIANS and ARTISTS seeking SUITABLE PLACES to UNWIND, WRITE, RECORD and JAM Rose Tree Cottage is a wonderful place to stay for families, groups of families and groups of musicians and artists looking for an inspiring location to write, record and jam.”

The lounge is a fantastic size for converting into a makeshift studio and benefits from direct garden access, large picnic bench and a wonderful view over which to share some beers and burgers on the BBQ. The kitchen is well equipped and is a great size for groups of friends. A homely home from home is how we described it when we stayed there in September 2020 and we shall definitely return as it more than meets the needs of a group of hobby musicians and artists. ...

The lounge is a fantastic size for converting into a makeshift studio and benefits from direct garden access, large picnic bench and a wonderful view over which to share some beers and burgers on the BBQ. The kitchen is well equipped and is a great size for groups of friends. A homely home from home is how we described it when we stayed there in September 2020 and we shall definitely return as it more than meets the needs of a group of hobby musicians and artists. The site also benefits from having two other rentable sites within very close proximity, making it a perfect place for larger groups of families/friends to holiday together but without being on top of each other! Simply search Sykes for 'TIN BARN' (a luxuriously furnished cabin for two with a hot tub) and 'RED BUS' (a converted former London Bus which sleeps 6) and benefits from communal camp fire, beautiful views, Edna and Jessica (the resident goats) and all the apples and pears you could ever want (seasonal)! The whole site is a fantastic place for families of all generations to enjoy homes away from homes in a beautiful rural setting in between Wales and England, very close to the start of the Severn Estuary. The surrounding area is perfect for the kids who like to go exploring on foot with many lovely places to stumble on within a half hour stroll from the site. Great job Lee and Jane on a very unique combination of venues in a very unique and welcoming location.

“Roses are red, violets are blue.”

We love Starsky & Buddy & Rose Cottage too. We hope you have a busy year with camping & glamping & cottaging cheer. We're packing for home & we're very glum to leave your view and your Gloucestershire sun.

“My husband and I spent three lovely months at Rose Tree Cottage situated in the serene countryside near Gloucester.”

It was our haven, whether as a retreat to come back to after travelling to other spots, or as a quiet and peaceful home to relax in. We loved its atmosphere, its garden setting, its view across grassy fields with grazing ewes and lambs to the Forest of Dean, its locality at the end of one of the narrow windy lanes. Our landlords/hosts, who lived next door, couldn't have been more helpful and pleasant, and indeed, when it came time to go, we felt we were saying goodbye to friends. Every request was attended to immediately, and every effort made to ensure we got the best from our time there. We would love to return!

“Great week.”

Loved the view from house and garden, also great walks straight from the house. Thanks for the wonderful eggs - now we know how they should taste!! Wonderful relaxing week. Had a good meal in The Ship at Newnham.

“Spent a great week in this lovely well equipped cottage, with its warm welcome, cosy feel, peaceful location and fantastic views.”

We covered quite a few miles on our bicycles and on foot exploring the Forest and Immediate area. The weather was perfect as we took on our adventures

“Just wanted to say what a great time we had in your cottage last week.”

It's the most beautiful location and we had the best weather ever that I can remember having in The Forest. The cottage is very comfortable and the surrounding garden very pretty. Family members came to visit for afternoon tea one day and we all sat out admiring the view and enjoying the sun. We all agreed that we'd like to return to Rose Cottage.

“A week of peace and quiet and lovely walks in the Forest of Dean & Wye Valley - bliss.”

Many thanks for your great cottage and for the treats which were a lovely surprise and much appreciated. We really enjoyed our break in this beautiful area. Wishing you both a happy & prosperous year ahead.

“Spent a lovely week here in this cosy cottage in early November.”

The Autumn colours gave spectacular views from the garden of the cottage. Situated on the edge of the Forest of Dean it is easy to get to lots of different places. There was a Welcome pack for our arrival and a warm greeting from the owners who live next door. Great also that we could take our dog with us. The cottage is well equipped and also has a dishwasher and a washing machine. Such a treat to be able to light the log fire and make the living room warm and cosy. Especially as the evenings were staring to get more chilly. The cottage is very spacious. It is lovely to sit by the large landing area and look out at the wonderful views all around. There is an abundance of wildlife to enjoy. Many birds visiting the gardens. It is so peaceful in this setting. Lovely place if you want peace and quiet. I would highly recommend that if you stay in this cottage that you visit the Red Hart pub at Blaisdon. Always a friendly welcome. Lovely food and dogs are welcome in the bar area.

“We spent a lovely week at Rose Tree Cottage.”

It was peaceful and quiet and we enjoyed great walks in the Forest of Dean & Wye Valley. We had a delicious welcome basket left for us full of treats which were a nice surprise and much appreciated. Plenty of logs were also available for the open fire and we made use of this in the evenings. We really enjoyed our break in this beautiful area.

“Nestled away in the hills, Rose Cottage is a gem.”

Close to lots of attractions for family activities and day trips, it contains all the home comforts you could desire and more. Surrounded by beautiful views. Charming hosts! What more could we say?

“The owners were very welcoming, helpful and friendly.”

Welcome basket/milk/wine was a lovely touch after our long journey. It was the best place we have stayed as a family on a holiday. The setting is off the beaten track which we loved and there were lots of animals - sheep, chickens, dogs, goats - which the children found entertaining. Lots of great places to hide in the beautiful, spacious garden - the kids could not find me in some places! The cottage is spacious and comfortable. Beautiful walks straight from the cottage. I recommend Flaxley Abbey and Welshpool Woods circular route. It is not far to the Forest of Dean from here either so easy to travel there.

“We had a wonderful stay in Rose Tree Cottage, which is really beautifully furnished with lots of extra touches.”

We had a really lovely welcome from the very helpful owners and thoroughly enjoyed the log fire, the goats, horses and beautiful setting. Many thoughtful extras such as DVDs, toys and books to suit all. We can't wait to go again!

“The cottage is in a lovely position overlooking a little valley.”

We enjoyed watching the varied bird life and the sheep and goats in the fields. The cottage is well equipped and the owners, Lee and Jane, are very friendly and helpful. We found plenty to do during the two weeks of our stay and came away still wishing to see more.

“The place is great, far from town and far from the traffic confusion but at the same time it's only 5 minutes (by car) away from supermarkets.”

The place is ideal for families with children and also for couples. Direct contact with nature. Owners are great and the cottage was clean and with everything that you require. They were 7 days that my family and I will surly remember.

“Lee and Jane, you can be proud of what you have achieved here!”

A wonderful cottage, well decorated (as real cottages should be) and the views are great. When sitting outside it feels as if you're alone in the valley except from the sheep and goats in the nearby meadows. From this location it is easy to visit both Wales and the Cotswolds and explore these areas, as we did. We enjoyed our stay very much and thanks for your warm welcome and nice chats.

“I booked Rose Tree Cottage as a birthday weekend surprise for my husband along with my daughter, son and his partner my granddaughter and two small dogs Toby and Teddy.”

The cottage met everything we could have wished for. Beautiful scenery, a wealth of wildlife, serenity. and most importantly the friendliness of our hosts, Jane and Lee who also provided a generous welcome hamper. The cottage was cosy with a lovely garden filled with numerous flowers and trees affording panoramic views from wherever we choose to sit in it. In fact it met all our expectations for a fabulous weekend break and we hope to return next year. Thank you Jane and Lee for making it a birthday weekend to remember.

“The first time we stayed at Rose Tree Cottage was just over a year ago.”

On arrival, we were impressed by breathtaking views, cute tidy garden, the warm, quirky cottage and a yummy welcome pack. The days after were filled with a lots of rain. Remarkably, it didn't bother us at all. We were just happy to snuggle inside the cottage, with short walks around in local woods. Our boys loved playing games (especially hide and seek as there were so many rooms and places to hide in), and playing on the trampoline, as well as interacting with the friendly animals (horses, cat, dogs, chickens, rabbits, goats, sheep) We all fallen in love with this particular place and couldn't believe how fast the time went by. Since than we have stayed in the Rose Tree Cottage two more times and we will be returning this summer again! If you go there, make sure to view this fabulous Bus conversion attraction. It is something you don't see very often. There is so much to explore and to do. From apple and pear picking in owner's orchard, to bird-watching to woodland walks, The owners are very friendly and helpful people, who offer full privacy to visitors. Rose Tree Cottage is unbelievably spacious, clean and well presented. Owners care about their visitors a lot, which is shown in small details like bunch of flowers in a vase, welcome-pack, leaving the heating on when it is colder or leaving some lights on if you're arriving late.

About the location

NEWNHAM-ON-SEVERN

The thriving village of Newnham-on-Severn nestles on the banks of the River Severn. The village is steeped in history, and offers specialist shops to suit all interests, along with traditional pubs and cafes. This charming village, part of which is designated Conservation Area, has a tree-lined main street, many listed buildings, a striking central clock tower and is ideally located for watching the spectacular Severn Bore. The Royal Forest of Dean, England's largest oak forest, offers numerous trails that can be explored on foot, bicycle or horseback. Caving, abseiling and a high-wire rope course are on offer for the more adventurous, while fishing, golf, kayaking and canoeing are also available. Gloucester is just a short drive away, where you will find Roman foundations, Victorian docklands and a spectacular Norman cathedral (whose cloisters were used in the Harry Potter films). Littledean with its unique Jail Museum and Quadrophenia Collection, Westbury Court Garden, the only restored water garden in the country and the ancient caves and eerie caverns of Clearwell Caves (as seen in Dr Who and Merlin) make a great family day out.
