TESTIMONIALS

What our customers say

' Fabulous weekend, great facilities spotlessly clean. Wonderful views with incredible sunsets. No shortage of things to do. Will definitely be back. '
' Lovely clean site in a great location. Really enjoyable stay at this lovely site with direct access into the Forest of Dean. Main plus points were very clean site, toilets and showers were spotless.... There is a dog field and the walks direct into the forest were lovely, we saw wild boar and deer! The woods were full of bluebells and the smell was beautiful!... We will visit again! '
' Nicely maintained site, ground, pitches and amenities block. Car registration number recognition provides a feeling of security. Good to have electric hook-up, too. Lovely view down the valley and winding walk through 'forest' if you are capable of steepish climb. Manager was very friendly offering recommendations for the numerous pubs serving food (within a 5-10 drive). Super venue for a stay of 2-7 days. '
' We absolutely loved our stay here. The cottage is perfect; very clean, all the amenities needed plus robes and slippers. It backs onto the forest and it had a secure area for our dog which was important for us. The outside area was great with the jacuzzi, BBQ and lounge chairs so we spent most of our time out there enjoying the sunshine. Lots of walks nearby or a short drive away and a good choice of pubs too. We will definitely be back again. '
' We were so grateful at being given early entry as we had travelled 250 miles for a funeral in the area..... We've camped here several times in the past and this is our second stay in a cottage..... This is the best site we have ever stayed on, the scenery is just stunning from the field. Access straight into the forest, it's perfect... think you'd be hard pushed to find a better place to stay, either in a cottage or on the campsite. '
