Impeccably renovated over 2 years, Claysun House offers a period property encompassing elegantly chic interiors, multiple reception rooms, a huge kitchen, sunny conservatory and a lovely garden with spectacular views over the Royal Forest of Dean.
Luxurious and spacious, Claysun House sleeps 8 guests, is dog-friendly and a wonderful home from home.
Private parking for up to 4 cars, walking distance of a local pub or a Chinese/Fish and Chip takeaway, and within easy reach of all the fantastic beauty and outdoor activities of the Forest of Dean.
It's the ultimate holiday area, and vacation property.
Claysun House has four en-suite bedrooms - a drawing room with log burning fire - a large upstairs television room - a downstairs cosy TV den - a stunning open plan kitchen with elegant dining area - a super size conservatory - a sunken terrace, leading up to a garden overlooking the River Lyd and the gorgeous views of the Forest of Dean beyond.
You can get a better feel for Claysun when you see the photographs!
It even has a steam railway passing nearby, with the charming chug-chugging of a bygone era of train travel, view-able from the garden.
A beautiful and almost undiscovered part of Gloucestershire to explore, the local area offers outdoor activities including endless cycling routes, adventure playgrounds (Go Ape!), picnic areas, walking, climbing, kayaking, sailing on the River Severn, as well as historic parkland at Lydney Park, fishing and other sports.
The perfect place to visit for the ultimate adventure vacation, or simply to get away from the madding crowd type of holiday.

Lovely luxury home
We had a really comfortable stay - 5 adults and 4 dogs (by special arrangement). Plenty of room for us all, and made even better by some mainly fine weather so we sat in the lovely garden much of the time. We dined at the Miners Arms and had a friendly welcome and great food. The house really is appointed nicely with no expense spared on the furnishings and fittings. The bed linen, carpets and towels were all luxurious. A few really tiny things let it down and may help others - lack of any oven gloves or tea towels (I burned my arm on the oven while juggling a hot baking tin), not enough clothes pegs or loo rolls, the driveway was "interesting" to turn into, batteries in TV remote had run out and perhaps a guide on local dog walks from the house would have been good. As i said these were minor and overall its a lovely comfortable and spacious home with lots of creature comforts and I wouldnt hesitate to recommend it to anyone.

About the host

Hosted by Lady Bathurst

Host profile image
Owning and managing holiday homes for nearly ten years, Lady Bathurst makes sure all her guests needs and comforts come first and foremost.
The Welcome Baskets are the stuff of legends and all three homes in the Bathurst Holiday Cottage portfolio always provide the extra little comforts that make a real home.
Lady B's aim is to make sure every family who visits one of her properties feels welcome and not like another 'punter' - in fact previous guests often comment on how it feels 'like a real home' and not just a holiday rental.
Her team is small, but spectacular and guests can always expect an excellent service.
In short, clients return to her homes time and time again - this is the biggest compliment anyone could ever pay an owner and many friends have been made over the years.
Excellence - comfort - chic - unique - homely. All bywords in Lady B's book. Come and stay at any of The Bathurst Holiday Cottages and you will not be disappointed!
You can search under Clover Barn; sleeps 6 (Kemble, Cirencester) - or Keepers Barn; sleeps 2/4 (Kemble, Cirencester) to see her other homes from home.

Why they chose this property

The Forest of Dean is one of the last bastions of traditional England. Once the hunting grounds of Charles II, the area is one of outstanding natural beauty and Claysun House is situated right in the heart of it. The views are amazing, the village pretty and as a bonus the pub serving excellent local beers and ciders, as well as delicious food, is a minutes walk away in one direction - and 30 seconds walk the other way is a fabulous Fish and Chip shop and Chinese Takeaway. Best of both worlds!!

What makes this property unique

Riverside views, countryside views, outdoor adventures, local food, easy access to all local amenities. Such an amazing area to explore and enjoy - endless things to do - or just relax at Claysun House and unwind.
