We are a small family run Glamping site with 2 units set on our quiet smallholding on the edge of the ancient and magical Forest of Dean.
We have a 4 bed circular bell tent and 4 to 6 bed rectangular tent - for further details see the tents section
All you need to bring beside you is clothing and food.
Our Glamping units are furnished with beds and bedding, and some storage. If you require a different configuration please contact us to discuss your requirements.
We provide a fully equipped camp kitchen with gas rings and oven, pots/pans etc, cool boxes and ice blocks, plates/bowls/cups and KFS.
We have a dedicated toilet per glamping tent and a shared shower unit.
Your neighbors during your stay will be our 6 friendly and inquisitive alpacas in the next field, the wild rabbits that roam the holding and watching over you could be the buzzards as they soar on the summer thermals.
Nearby in the forest you may catch a fleeting glimpse of the fallow deer, a grey squirrel scampering up a tree, a fox looking for its next meal or a family of wild boar. At night listen for the Barn owls (screech) and Tawny owls (twit twoo) or on a warm night look for our resident bat as he swoops on unsuspecting insects. On a clear night, lie back and lose yourself in space with the amazing view of the stars.
The Forest of Dean is full of history and beauty, with it's human industrial history stretching back to beyond Roman times.
