Book now

No. 2 Valley View Cottage earns its name on arrival, with a long look across the valley to take in before the boots come off at the front door. It sits a short distance from the traditional village of Blakeney, and with room for four guests and two dogs it makes a dog friendly springboard into the Forest of Dean and along the Wye.

Coats and shoes fit in the inviting hallway, which opens to the living room, kitchen and dining area, all finished in a contemporary style with colourful soft furnishings. Comfortable seating and a TV are there for a film when the dogs are back from the woods, and the well equipped kitchen at the back of the room has a dining table for four. Both bedrooms are on this floor too, one double and one twin, whose two beds zip into a super king on request, beside the bathroom.

Out in the private enclosed garden the outlook is open countryside, a view to sit with for as long as anybody likes. A table, chairs and charcoal BBQ make supper outside easy, with the dogs sprawled nearby after a day under the trees and everybody lingering over the view as evening comes on.

Walkers and cyclists have ample open countryside to explore, and two dogs will find fresh ground every day. Bluebells carpet Bradley Hill woodlands in spring, Lydney Park Gardens has its rhododendrons and azaleas, and summer brings cruises on the River Wye, rock climbing and canoeing. Puzzle Wood, Clearwell Caves, the Dean Heritage Centre and the Cyril Hart Arboretum are all nearby.

We research every description carefully and believe it to be accurate, but details can change. Please confirm anything important, especially dog rules, with the booking agent or property owner before you book.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is No. 2 Valley View Cottage dog friendly?

    Yes, No. 2 Valley View Cottage welcomes up to two dogs. The cottage has been thoughtfully set up with dogs in mind — everything is on one level, so your dog can come in from outside, dry off, and sleep in a room that's easy to reach without navigating any stairs.

  • Are dogs allowed at No. 2 Valley View Cottage year round?

    The listing doesn't specify any seasonal restrictions on dogs, so it's best to check directly with the owner when booking if timing is a concern. What's worth knowing is that the enclosed private garden means your dogs can go out last thing at night safely, whatever the season.
