Furnished glamping with alpacas on a quiet farm in the Forest of Dean
A 10-minute drive from Cannop; 15 minutes from Wye Valley
Resident alpacas; cycling and walking trails to follow close by

It might be that you’re looking towards the Forest of Dean for a cycling break or to spot deer and wild boar along your hikes. Or perhaps you're more excited for watersports in the Wye Valley. Whatever your calling, Harrow Hill Glamping in Gloucestershire is a family-friendly site well-situated for it all, in a scenic setting on the edge of the ancient forest in Drybrook. A few creatures already call this place home. The quiet smallholding has a group of resident alpacas and passing wildlife makes an appearance, from rabbits in the field to squirrels in the trees and buzzards overhead. Keen to clock in some steps? Handily, you’ll be able to set out on foot directly from the site. There’s a gentle walk around the nearby hill, a favourite haunt for deer, buzzards and wild boar. As for those of you who like to pedal some way, there are many cycling trails around the Forest of Dean that are easy to pick up – no need to drive, just join one of the branches near the site. Of course, you’ll need some fuel in you first. For your food shop or a meal out, there are lots of restaurants, pubs, cafés and shops in and around Cinderford, five minutes’ drive away. To help with your prep, the site has a full camp kitchen with gas hobs and an oven, pots and pans, plates, bowls, cutlery and a washing-up point. Other facilities include a dedicated portable toilet per tent with warm water and shared shower facilities.

Local attractions

Keeping up with passing wildlife or racing with the rest of your gang isn’t too tricky along Cannop’s mountain biking trails (10 minutes). In Whitecliff (15 minutes), you’ll have the option of kicking up some more dust on the off-road trails; expert 4x4 driving tuition is also available. Trails are the thing of the Malvern Hills (50 minutes) too, although these are more suited to hiking and cycling (or sticking to the sky for those paragliding pros). The Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (15 minutes) is another place for making the most of earth's big backyard, with more trails and watersports including paddleboarding… a real balance challenge. Alternatively, head to Puzzle Wood (15 minutes) to wander through the trees. Goodrich Castle (15 minutes) will tend to your curious side, as it’s one of a few local historical sites, including Gloucester’s (half an hour) Victorian docks (a place for more watersports) and cathedral.

Woodpecker bell tent (four person)

Liked: We have just got home from a weekend at harrow hill and it was beautiful. The hosts Susan & Mark were very welcoming nothing was too much for them. The alpacas are beautiful & very friendly, infact our son made a new friend called Leo the alpaca. No wi-fi but that wasn’t a problem at all as we wanted a weekend to switch off. If we are ever in the area again we will definitely be staying at Harrow Hill. Thank you once again Susan & Mark.

Disliked: Nothing

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your review, we are glad you had an enjoyable stay and your son enjoyed the alpacas. We look forward to seeing you again

Excellent site. Mark and Susan are very friendly and accommodating!

Buzzard bell tent (six person)

Liked: Wow just had 2 nights away here and loved every minute! Welcomed by friendly owners who gave us a tour and to meet the Alpacas. So peaceful and relaxing atmosphere and enough space to have a BBQ, play games, chat to the Alpacas and have a peaceful night's sleep. My 8 and 10 year old girls really loved waking up to seeing the Alpacas from our tent and chatting with the Owers finding out lots of facts about them! We'll be back! Tents were so comfy and they'll be everything you'd possibly need. THANK YOU FOR A WONDERFUL STAY.

From the manager: Thank you for your review, we are pleased you had such wonderful time and that our Alpacas provided such a great start to the day. We look forward to welcoming you again. Thanks again Harrow Hill Glamping
