    It was very cold at night so I recommend taking a hot water bottle but that is all!

    Beautiful scenery, so tranquil and quiet. Collin the host was so so kind and really helpful. Couldnt do enough to make our stay perfect. Tents were so pretty and really spacious. We slept like logs. Beds were super comfy. Everything we needed they had. Local pub was 25 min walk, good food and cheap, with friendly bar staff. We will be back!

    Accessibility to the site is a work in progress, disabled travellers should contact site to discuss needs (they are great at making any adaption that they can to make the tent/site work for you). We managed using a power chair and crutches. The owner is extremely accommodating but the nature of the site and location itself could pose challenges to some.

    Beautiful bell tents in a stunning river side location. Beds very comfy, had good sleep both nights. Very warm greeting from owner who was keen to ensure we were comfortable (and we were). We are not regular campers but ended the stay agreeing that this was more enjoyable than a B&B of the same price. It was great having everything provided. The food packs were excellent value, sourced from a local butcher, we had a very yummy bbq. Location itself is great for exploring Forest of Dean and there seemed to be lots going on to explore - markets, forest trails, pubs with gardens, museums etc

    We enjoyed everything even on a raining day. :-) There is plenty to do in the area for sunny and raining days.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The accommodation was comfortable with plenty of space. The beds were nice and they had comfy duvets and blankets (that kept us warm at night). They had everything we needed such as a barbecue, fire pit, a camping stove plus plates, cutlery, cups, mugs and pans (you just need to take your towels). The view of the river was really nice and the facilities (bathroom, kitchen and showers very clean). The host was very friendly and attentive and gave us information about local attractions and places to eat (the Lyon Inn which is a 6min drive was lovely!). It is an off grid place so it is useful to take a portable power bank to recharge your phone, tablets, etc (but the host is happy to turn on the energy in the kitchen if you need). My young son really enjoyed the whole experience. We would highly recommend this place and we will definitely come back in the future!

    Absolutely fantastic! From day one of booking and us changing the requirements twice I can't give more praise for the hospitality of the host here. He sent us a personalised video for check in and came and made sure all was OK but left us to it also. Lots of good info given personally about the river and local area. Always on hand from before arrival right the way through to departure. If u want to be off grid for a bit in a beautiful setting we would 100% recommend and will definitely be back. Thank you for a great stay in a great location with great facilities 😉👍

    I suggested a safety aspect, having portable gas cookers/heaters in canvas glamping bell tents is potentially risky. A central place for portable hand-held fire extinguishers would add to safety. Also being close to the river, a lifebuoy situated nearby. Finding the site was somewhat time-consuming for us, non-locals (N.Ireland!). Even some locals were not aware of the site.

    The proprietor " Jay", was exceptional in his explanation of this comparatively new site alongside the river Severn. He has plans to expand the facilities and the potential is very exciting. However, we enjoyed what was in place already. Would recommend to anyone who likes somewhere a bit special and different.

    The setting was a lovely getaway very quiet and off the beaten track. Staff were so friendly and helpful and able to answer questions. Would recommend the Lyon pub fantastic food and service . The individual facilities were excellent fire pit, bbq, bench and camping facilities provided . The accommodation was very comfortable and spacious. Location was near to forest off Dean and where bikes can be hired to go and explore. Pedalbikeaway was very good the tracks were excellent. Highly recommend the River view and will definitely be returning
