The Old School

Nestled upon the outskirts of Ruspidge, within the Gloucestershire countryside is The Old School, a lovely, two-bedroom cottage. Just paces away from a shop and a pub, whilst enveloped by several Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, The Old School rests in a prime position to explore the heart of Royal Forest Of Dean, inviting four guests and two furry companions. Benefit from designated parking for two cars, before stepping through the multi-level garden and into your new abode. Be greeted by the open-plan living space, stylishly furnished with a fully-equipped kitchen, dining seating for four guests, and plush sofas to lounge upon after a day of travelling. Rustle up delicious meals to be enjoyed indoors or set the patio table to relish in an alfresco affair; in the garden you'll also locate bike storage, perfect for avid cyclists, looking to venture along the nearby Forest of Dean trail. As day turns into night, head upstairs to be welcomed by two well-appointed bedrooms, a double and a bunk room, both serviced by a sleek bathroom, housing both a bath and a shower. Awaken to plan your itinerary, starting off locally with a bite to eat at the White Hart Inn pub, whilst a convenience store is nearby to stock up on the essentials. Venture into rural Gloucestershire to hike through the Cyril Hart Arboretum, explore the Forest of Dean by following the Sculpture Trail, enjoy a leisurely stroll along Soudley Ponds, or brush up on your local knowledge at the Dean Heritage Centre. Travel into the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with the Ross-on-Wye riverside walk as a recommended stop off, whilst travelling south will lead you to the Clearwell Caves, where you can follow a guided, underground tour, and Puzzlewood, ideal for all the family. Round off your break in the city, brimming with art, culture and history, where you can tour Gloucester Cathedral, the National Waterways Museum Gloucester, Gloucester Prison, and the Museum Of Gloucester, before returning home in time for sundowners. Experience all of this, and more, at The Old School.
