The Mooring Post has potential as a family-friendly base for exploring Gloucester and the Forest of Dean, but needs improvements.”

early check-inon-site parkingguinness pintbar closuretea shortagecoffee pods
The staff accommodated my early check-in. This service was very useful. There was plenty of on-site parking available. I had a great pint of Guinness in the bar.
The restaurant and bar were not open one night. My tea and coffee supplies were not replenished that night. There were no coffee pods for the machine, just tea bags.

maintenance issuesincluded breakfast
the room had a problem with the water (i think). we were told we could not use the bath . my son also got an electric shock from the water, because they had maintenance issues (unbelievable!). i think we should have received a discount, because the facilities were not as described. i am unsure it was completely safe. breakfast should be included considering the prices charged.
