Looking for suggestions/recommendations

I want to take Daisy away for a few days next spring, March/April time, I'm thinking Cotswolds/Wye Valley/Forrest of dean, that kind of area but I don't know it at all. So I'm looking for suggestions of somewhere nice to go in that region? If anyone lives or has lived around there or has been on holiday there? So I can try and narrow down my search!

Accommodation wise I'm looking for a small cottage, 1 bedroom as it's just us two, obviously dog friendly! Easy access to good walks (ideally without driving once I'm there) and a dog friendly pub would be good too  And not too expensive! If you've been anywhere in that area that fits that description let me know  

Thanks for reading  

Sounds lovely saz hope you find somewhere, inez may be able to help I'm sure she's near Forest of Dean

Well I have only done Devon (and won't suggest that) or Norfolk which was fabulous and still is but not much help other than that Xx

Yes I would say that Inez would be the one to ask as she lives in that area. It's one of my favourite areas too.

Ooh Saz great choice I will have a browse and let you know x

Thank you, any help is appreciated  

I started looking today but I have no idea which bits are the best bits to be looking for accommodation in! For good walks etc, it all looks really beautiful though  

Saz I am finding difficulty in getting the links so I have listed a few for you to google. They are not all cottages but the places I know that have pubs within walking distance and plenty of walks without having to drive. x Not all 1 bedroom not a lot of them around.

Whitemead Forest Park, Parkend, Gloucestershire.
Miners Arms Whitecroft, Gloucestershire. (cottage is within pub grounds)
Hectors House, Bream, Gloucestershire.
Nagshead Cottage, Parkend, Gloucestershire.
Squirrel Cottage, Parkend, Gloucestershire.

Brill thank you, I shall have a look  

I will go on looking for you Saz, hence I haven't checked any prices!  

Another here Saz, I know this person and I thought it is quite reasonably priced. Its also in a fab position and very short walk to pubs (2) and woods x

Little Briar barn Parkend.

Thank you again Inez, that one looks great, may be on to a winner  Some of the first ones were a bit too expensive or already booked!!

That one looks fab saz

Yay yes Little Briar is gorgeous and looks out on to fields and woodlands. The woods behind lead to the nature reserve and other walks whichever direction you take.
Both pubs only 2mins walk and both dog friendly x
You may see plenty of piggies too! x

That looks great , might have to think about that one myself , very reasonably priced too
