About the host
Hosted by Lady Bathurst
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.
