What's nearby

  • This giant 13th-century sandstone abbey stands along the picturesque River Wye. After the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1536 the lead roof was sold off and the Abbey lay neglected for 200 years. The Abbey was "rediscovered" in the 18th century and became a haven for artists and poets. Tip: Visit on a weekday in the spring and you may the place all to yourself!

We stayed at The Fountain Inn for a few nights, and couldn't rate it highly enough! The bedrooms were comfortable and clean, the staff were friendly and helpful, and the food for both breakfast and dinner was great. We would definitely stay here again.

Great stay, cleanliness was second to none, dined in both evenings and the dinners were excellent. Good choice of beer and wines at reasonable prices. Just one small criticism, dining rooms and corridors and bedroom all on the chilly side, although there was an extra heater in our room, which we did have to use.

The cleanliness was excellent. 5 Star The beds comfortable. Tea/coffee making facilities were provided as well as bottled water. Toiletries were provided in the bathroom There was an excellent choice on the breakfast menu which was very good. I cannot comment on the standard of the cuisine as we didn't dine there in the evenings, due to having made other arrangements to visit a relative. However, I would have liked to, as the ambience, standard and choice of the cuisine at The Fountain was inviting. I have mobility problems but was able to manage the stairs. However, for safety's sake I would recommend a handrail on the wall by the shower, which would be useful for any level of mobility. The unusually hot weather meant that the bedrooms were very warm. There was no air conditioning but an electric fan was provided which helped a little in circulating the air. I would definitely stay there again.

Great short break

As soon as you walk through the door you can sense that your stay is going to be an enjoyable one. Greeted with a friendly smile we were taken to our room through clean and tidy corridors. Nice room clean and tidy. We liked the food and the choice of ales very good. WiFi good at the Inn, but if you go outside no service at all. Lots of interesting local history around the walls to be perused. Visited several local attractions in the wonderful forest of dean.

Lovely Inn, close to the Forest of Dean

A lovely country Inn on the edge of the Forrest of Dean. Lovely friendly owner and staff. Good home cooked food, both breakfast and evening meals highly enjoyed. I would recommend. The only slight negative was that the mattress in room 9 was a bit on the thin side, but i still slept well.

Great place to stay for a day or two

My son and I really enjoyed our stay at the Fountain Inn. We were made to feel very welcome and Courtney was outstanding. The food was excellent, even if on the second evening the service was a little slow, presumably because it was baking hot that day. We would gladly recommend this little Inn to everyone.
