Bailey Point Cottage

About this property

Drybrook 2 miles. A beautiful, ground floor barn conversion, a wing of the owner's home, surrounded by their five-acre smallholding, down a lane in the SSSI in Wigpool, in the heart of the Forest of Dean. The smallholding is home to chickens, sheep, ducks, horses, a woodland area and an orchard, and is just two miles from the village of Drybrook. Luxuriously furnished throughout with the owner's personal touches, this delightful cottage offers contemporary accommodation, ideal for a romantic break or a get-together with family and friends in a peaceful and unspoilt part of the country. Set over the ground floor, overlooking fields and woodland, the cottage has a master bedroom with French doors and views of the garden, a large open-plan living area which exudes quality and style and includes a well-equipped kitchen with French doors into the garden and a warming woodburning stove in the sitting area, ideal for those chilly evenings. French doors lead to the rear decked area, with further seating at the front of the cottage, both ideal for enjoying a relaxing drink or a good book, whilst taking in the sounds and daily activities of the local wildlife. Close by, Wigpool Common Nature Reserve, a SSSI, offers an abundance of flora, fauna and bird life which can be observed from areas around the common. The pretty Forest of Dean village of Drybrook offers a range of amenities, including an excellent local butcher, Post Office and village store, a fish and chip shop and a local village pub. The forest offers many stunning walks and cycle routes, which can be enjoyed from the doorstep of your delightful cottage.
