What customers say

This clean, peaceful campsite offers spacious, scenic pitches with lakes and countryside views. Highly dog-friendly with secure areas and a pond. BBQ stands & on-site fridges/freezers available. Mostly excellent, but occasional shower temp issues & limited local amenities.

Danica T.

Powered grass and gravel travel trailer campsite

Liked The site is just beautiful, 3 lake/ponds, wide lawned areas, walks inbetween trees.
Facilities kept really clean, and multiple fresh water taps.
Lots of available toilets and showers so no queueing.
2 x fenced dog exercise areas for off lead play and 1x dog pond for swimming were perfect for our labrador.
Very flat pitch made set up of caravan easy.
Forest of Dean forest commission walks are easy to get to and brilliant scenery.

Disliked Showers are a push button that times out and needs to be pushed again, mid-shampooing this is a little frustrating... but a very minor thing.

Primitive grass and gravel travel trailer campsite

Liked Staff were lovely, campsite was clean, units were spacious, facilities were spotless and lovely location.

Disliked There isn’t a tidy oath to walk into Lyndley (not the campsites fault), it’s a busy road.

Local attractions

Forest Oak Farm is in a splendid spot for easy access to the Forest of Dean, the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the wider Gloucestershire, south Wales and south-west England areas. Adventurers can test their mettle on the high ropes course at Go Ape, five miles from base, and over at Puzzlewood, eight miles away, there's a walking trail that meanders through an ancient 14-acre forest filled with towering trees and rugged rock formations. At Clearwell Caves, right next door to Puzzlewood, explore its sprawling natural cave system and learn all about the forest's 4,500-year iron ore and ochre mining history. The Forest Of Dean, around half an hour's walk from the park, is full to the brim with woodland walks, cycle tracks, lakes and secluded valleys. Be sure to bring your binoculars, because the forest is home to wild boar and deer that can (and should) be admired from afar. The smashing Symonds Yat Rock is a mere 25-minute drive away from Forest Oak Farm and provides visitors with plenty of fun outdoorsy and sightseeing opps; take one of the many waymarked trails that link it with the River Wye and a number of circular walks into the surrounding forest, visit the ancient Iron Age hill fort and – if you're there between April and August – point your trusty binoculars towards the nearby cliffs to spot the peregrine falcons that nest and hunt around them. Canoeing, kayaking, paddleboarding and mountaineering are available around the village of Symonds Yat too.
