    The staff provided a superb experience and the room was super comfortable with easy access to the street, making it perfect for weekend strolls through the area and visits to places like Go Ape Forest of Dean just a short distance away.

    outstanding service
    comfy bed

    This is just a top selection for a fleeting pause in Parkend with extraordinarily good value for money. The landlady took care of our muddy biking clothes, washing and folding them unexpectedly. Look for a nice place to store your gear if you're biking or walking.

    The full English breakfast was delightful, especially the poached egg. The live entertainment on Saturday night was a fantastic surprise that made our stay memorable.

    dog-friendly bar
    superb breakfast
    musty smelling room

    Had an awesome weekend with friends! We explored the scenic paths at Cannop Cycle Centre and enjoyed a lovely stroll through the enchanting forest. The place was super dog-friendly, and I loved the homey vibe of the bar. Make sure to arrive early to snag a table, especially on busy nights! The breakfast was fantastic, a highlight of our stay.

    The only downside was our room, which had a bit of a musty smell upon arrival. While it was well-furnished, it would have been uncomfortable for a longer stay.

    The stay was fantastic, especially for a weekend getaway with friends. The location is perfect for exploring the beautiful forest trails, and the pet-friendly vibe was a huge plus. Breakfast was definitely the highlight. freshly cooked and served hot. We also appreciated the homey atmosphere in the bar area.

    friendly atmosphere
    comfortable double bed
    lack of mobile signal
    inconsistent wifi connectivity
    underwhelming steak

    A friendly atmosphere made for a great base after a day on the trails. The spacious room included a comfortable double bed, and the bathroom was clean with plenty of hot water. While the only downside was the lack of mobile signal and inconsistent wifi connectivity, it encouraged us to interact instead. The homemade desserts were delicious, but I found the steak a tad underwhelming compared to the fantastic burgers we had on the second night.

    Amazing stay with great vibes!

    Loved staying here for a couple of nights! The staff were super friendly and made us feel right at home. Our room was comfy and clean. The breakfast was delish. We went for a casual meal in the bar area and the locals were so welcoming. The only thing was the Wi-Fi was a bit sketchy. a fab experience!

    delicious meals
    lovely landlady
    cozy atmosphere
    tight shelf space

    Had a brilliant two-night stay with friends where we enjoyed the delicious hot meals and even got our muddy biking clothes washed by the lovely landlady. The garden area was perfect for relaxing with a cup of tea amongst the greenery, and we had a great time chatting in the cozy restaurant. Just a tiny bump was the shelf by the bed, which made me bang my head a few times, but it didn’t ruin our fun at all! 😊

    i recently celebrated a birthday with a stay in parkend again, and this time was even better. the room was spacious and warm, and the food exceeded my expectations, especially the hearty breakfast. the staff were incredibly friendly, especially michelle, making it feel like a home away from home.

    A delightful weekend topped by exceptional hospitality. The spacious, warm twin room was impeccably clean and well-appointed, providing all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay. Breakfast offered a superb range of choices, and the delicious dinner at the bar was both satisfying and good value. The staff's friendliness and attentiveness truly enhanced the experience, making every guest feel welcome. It's apparent that dietary preferences are accommodated thoughtfully, which is a big plus.

    Fantastic stay with great vibes!

    We had an awesome time! The staff were super friendly, especially Michelle, who even brought us coffee after we overslept. The full English brekkie was top-notch with perfectly poached eggs and the best bacon. The gardens were lovely too, just wish there was a bit more parking available. such a welcoming place for a chill weekend away!

    comfortable rooms
    excellent food
    friendly atmosphere

    The Fountain offered a welcoming atmosphere, with comfortable and recently refurbished rooms. The food was excellent, particularly the daily specials created by talented chefs, and the Sunday Carvery was a fantastic value. Michelle and her family made us feel at home, and I am already planning to return for another visit.

    There were no significant negatives during this stay.
