Forest of Dean Lodges & Holiday Parks

Explore Gloucestershire’s ancient woodland from the comfort of one of our Forest of Dean lodges and holiday parks. This enchanting forest is all about outdoor adventure, with exciting activities like caving, cycling and hiking offering an entertaining escape for all ages. Take a nostalgic steam train ride on the Dean Forest Railway, delve into the area’s rich mining history in Clearwell Caves, or go canoeing or kayaking along the River Wye. For family-friendly days out, visit the adrenaline-pumping treetop courses of Go Ape, follow the Forest of Dean Sculpture Trail or discover the twisted trees of Puzzlewood. Those looking for a romantic retreat can enjoy stargazing up at clear skies, candlelit dinners in country inns and sunset strolls along the river. For an extra touch of luxury in ultimate privacy, book one of our Forest of Dean lodges with hot tubs.

Family-friendly things to do in the Forest of Dean

Brave the dizzy heights of Go Ape...

Channel your inner Tarzan at Go Ape in the Forest of Dean, where you can climb and swing your way through the beautiful forest canopy on high ropes and zip lines. There are two Go Ape locations to choose from, with activities and courses for different ages and adventure levels. Those who prefer to stay on the ground might opt for a Segway tour along the forest floor.

Explore the Forest of Dean Sculpture Trail...

Cycle or walk your way along the Forest of Dean Sculpture Trail, a unique collection of contemporary art installations scattered throughout the ancient woodlands. Featuring nearly 20 permanent and temporary sculptures, you can expect both playful and thought-provoking pieces along the route; a lovely way to experience the history and charm of the forest.

Experience the magic of Puzzlewood...

The world of Puzzlewood brings an extra touch of magic to the Forest of Dean, a woodland wonderland designed to delight and inspire both young and old. Perfect for a family day out, there’s over a mile of spellbinding forest to explore, with a maze of twisted trees and winding pathways. This fairytale world of caves, bridges and trails has inspired countless TV shows and films, including Star Wars and Doctor Who.
