The Area: - Coleford is a charming, bustling market town in the west of the Forest of Dean, just a tip toe from the Welsh border and close to the Wye Valley. With a population of 9000 it’s technically the largest hub in the Forest of Dean district but the town’s compact heart means the rolling countryside is right on your doorstep.
The centre has a pretty market place hugged by Georgian facades with a clock tower. A delightful conservation area, the high street boasts every you need from bakers and butchers to a range of indie cafés and shops. Coleford has its very own cinema, two excellent golf courses, the Great Western Railway Museum, a nearby off-road driving centre, plus you are minutes from some of the area’s best known family attractions, including Perrygrove Railway and Puzzlewood, described by Kathleen Kennedy, the producer of Star Wars and CEO of Lucas Films as ‘the most magical forest on the face of the earth’, no less.
You won’t be bored here that’s for sure, with plenty of events on year round, from regular markets to The Faddle Fair, The Carnival of Transport and the Coleford Music Festival all of which attract thousands of folk to the town.

Commute: - Coleford may no longer have its own working train station (it’s now a museum) but you’re not left high and dry. A short 10 min hop to nearby Lydney can have you on a fast train to most places in the country, getting you to London in about 2 hrs 20 mins. Wales’s buzzing capital city Cardiff is also just under an hour by car and Gloucester and Cheltenham are under an hour.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
