The county has about 20 lodges, cabins and hot tub cottages, spread between garden-style cabins, lakeside lodges and larger houses for groups. Sizes run from a one-bedroom place for 2 to a four-bedroom house for 8 or more. The cheapest night found is far below the usual one, and it belongs to a small place for two. If you are travelling with a group or children, expect to pay noticeably more, though the cost per person drops as the size grows. Dog friendly places are the norm rather than the exception.

Gloucestershire covers the Cotswold hills, the Severn vale and the Forest of Dean side of the county, and the lodges here suit couples, families and dog owners who want a short break without a long drive from the Midlands or the South West. Hot tubs are common, and most places welcome pets.
Prices sit on the dearer side for a lodge break, with a usual night well above what the cheapest places ask. Small lodges for two are much cheaper than the larger ones, yet the choice is wide enough to find a budget at most levels. Typical places sleep about 5 guests, and the largest takes 10. Around 60% have a hot tub, about 35% a log burner and about 85% accept animals, so a winter weekend with a wood fire and a soak outdoors is easy to arrange. Guests rate the stays very highly, at 9.3 out of 10 on average.
Gardens are the most common feature, found at about 70% of places, followed by hot tubs at 60% and barbecues at 45%. High chairs are available at about 40%, which helps if you are bringing a baby. Log burners appear at about 35% and those places are usually cheaper than the rest, which is useful if you want a fire without paying the most. Lake views and fishing are rarer, and they come with a higher usual price. Only one place has a sauna, and it is the dearest of the features listed.
| Feature | Places | Share | Usual night |
|---|---|---|---|
| Garden | 14 | 70% | £249 |
| Hot tub | 12 | 60% | £250 |
| BBQ | 9 | 45% | £249 |
| High chair | 8 | 40% | £241 |
| Log burner / fireplace | 7 | 35% | £202 |
| Lake view | 4 | 20% | £249 |
| Fishing | 3 | 15% | £282 |
| Sauna | 1 | 5% | £298 |
A lodge for 2 is the cheapest way in, but it costs the most per person. Places for 3 to 4 are noticeably cheaper per head, and those for 5 to 6 are cheaper again. The 5 to 6 group is also the biggest, with 7 places and about 3 bedrooms each, so there is plenty to compare. For a group of friends or two families, sharing a larger place costs less than booking two small ones.
| Sleeps | Places | Bedrooms | Usual night | Per guest |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sleeps 2 | 5 | 1 | £138 | £69 |
| Sleeps 3-4 | 3 | 2 | £178 | £44 |
| Sleeps 5-6 | 7 | 3 | £249 | £42 |
| Sleeps 7-9 | 4 | 4 | £297 | £37 |
Usual nightly prices stay fairly close from one month to the next. March and December are the dearest of the months covered, while January, February and April are cheaper. November sits in the middle. Availability follows the same pattern: November and December are the busiest, with fewer dates left, while January to April have many more free nights. If you want a lower price and a choice of dates, early in the year is the easier time to book.
| Month | Usual night | Nights still free |
|---|---|---|
| November 2026 | £232 | 42% |
| December 2026 | £248 | 43% |
| January 2027 | £202 | 60% |
| February 2027 | £206 | 60% |
| March 2027 | £249 | 57% |
| April 2027 | £208 | 61% |
Several nearby towns have their own pages. Cheltenham and Gloucester have the largest choice, with about 24 places each, and Gloucester has the lowest starting price of the towns listed. Tewkesbury and Longhope are also cheap to start from, and both have a smaller choice. Stroud and Painswick have about 5 places each, and Stroud starts from a higher price. If the county page shows nothing free on your dates, one of these towns is a sensible next step.
January, February and April are usually the cheaper months. March and December cost more. Those quieter months also have more free dates.
