ALFRESCO HEAVEN

new outdoor cooking bbq area, sited . The pizza oven has been here for sometime and can be hired with marble slabs and rolling pins for making the bases, pizza peels for sliding pizzas in and out and kindling and logs to keep the oven at 300 degrees.

But now - the king of BBQ’s. Our secondhand stunner has arrived from (sorry we didn’t go brand new but we’re hoping to get the rotisserie and slow cook steel oven pan to nestle on top of the coals from you. The leather branded gauntlets are pretty cool too.

Summer 2027 summer staycations just got even more fun.

BEAST OF A BBQ

Inspired by a party w and the wonderful Sharon of we have just invested in this beast. We’ll photograph it next to our signature when it is in situ after delivery. Any bookings made before the end of August 2026, will have full use of this gratis, including utensils, fuel, fire starting chimney and chopping board during their stay in 2027.

And hopefully the inspiration can be returned by a visit in December.

Mill End is a quirky holiday let, with the option of booking in groups of up to 25, 29, 34 or 40, depending on which parts of the house are hired.

Artisan food & drink shops are aplenty - and .fayre in Ross on Wye or and in the other direction.

And if this wasn’t enough, have now opened a wonderful stable bar with in the courtyard, next to their vineyard in the grounds of Flaxley Abbey.

Make some fab plans for late autumn 2026 or early 2027 with house hire off season stays.

Quirky pieces are from (spotty cushions and mirrors) with white faux flowers from the wonderful . Little rustic metal birds are from which is an absolute MYST for anyone visiting the area. If you arrive early on Friday or have time on Sunday it is just outside . 100% worth a detour for!

Over the sink hang banners from which was filmed here some years ago.

And the strangest thing? The winner was the young man, then a small boy, who lived next door to us in Bristol for 20 odd years!

CHRISTMAS. NEWYEARS EVE. BIG BIRTHDAYS at Mill End. Made even better with table styling or themed dining. Murder mystery or Mad Hatter’s Tea Party.

Come and try it for yourself. Breathe deeply. And relax. And if you’re an outdoorsy crew or have family to entertain over the summer, try .forestofdean

LUCKY

View from our breakfast room/my office. We have two gooseberry bushes which never fully fruit and a HUGE fig tree to the left. The birds LOVE the overgrown, shady corner of the garden. Our tame robin hops around a foot away from your feet. And there are two nest in the laurel - different pitches of cheeping!

Awake at 4.30 this morning so I thought I’d water the garden while temperatures are low.

Mill End is a large weekend. Holiday house with a totally private sunken courtyard with a hot tub and a cold water immersion barrel plus oak sleeper steps leading up to our small lawn with a play area and sunken trampoline. Small, wild but perfectly formed.

We still have August Bank Holiday weekend free and Monday/Friday slots for mid-week breaks. Plenty for kids to do and high speed wifi if parents need to take it in turns working. Pizza oven, BBQ and fresh pasta making kit too - to combine family fun and meal prep…

When you bring family and friends to Mill End in the Forest of Dean in Gloucestershire, to celebrate a birthday, a hen or stag party or just because… you can use our incredibly well appointed kitchen, so well equipped we’ve had professional chefs compliment us.

Or you can use our second kitchen which is set up predominantly for baking and cocktails, splitting your group into two for a come dine with me vibe - half creates mains, the other half the desserts.

Or have come in to cook for you. No stress while you dress for the evening. And someone else lays the table and fills the 3 dishwashers for you. Yes! 3 dishwashers!

Late gaps in May and August if interested?

Welcome! The sun is shining. We have just hosted two stag weekend groups who were good as gold.

We have some wonderful hen weekends who are getting creative with their themes and choices of activity and entertainment.

And we have an International Cosmetics brand joining us soon for their annual get together - with delegates from all over the world. Who would have thought they’d choose the Forest of Dean??? But they did! To be fair we can seat 40 for meetings, socialising and dining.

Mill End hosts large but seldom. Our small cottage next door hosts little and often. The big house has gaps in May and August which we can negotiate on pricewise. DM me or email [email protected]
