Journey further into the beautiful surroundings of the Forest of Dean, where during the summer months you may visit the nearby Yat Rock and watch the Peregrine Falcons or explore the Clearwell Caves, an unusual iron mining museum that dates to the Bronze Age. The forest is also home to Puzzle Wood which showcases pre-Roman open cast iron workings and a maze expanding 14 acres of rock ravines and pathways, and if you happen to visit when the tides are at their highest, you may be lucky enough to witness the natural phenomenon of The Bore where a large wall of water cascades the Severn at up to 20 miles per hour.

We enjoyed our stay very much and will certainly book it again. Itâs also very useful being on the same site as The New Inn where they serve really good food at a very reasonable cost.
