Closer to the lodge there's loads of local attractions to keep you busy including Clearwell Castle and Caves, Puzzlewood where filming for Star Wars and Merlin has recently taken place, cycle hire for the many woodland tracks, adventurous woodland activities like GoApe and the endless woodland walks. If you fancy going slightly further afield there's the wilds of the Brecon Beacons National Park, Malvern Hills to visit and if you want to do some serious shopping there's the city of Gloucester 20 miles away.

Response from the owner So its been nearly 3 weeks since the last time you told us that you would send it back, since then no information, you ignored a text from Sue of a few days ago and when I contacted you yesterday for a reminder you became abusive. Your thoughts on the property have changed since you said "thanks for letting me stay at your beautful lodge" i wonder why that is? Please send back the item that your daughter took as you originally agreed. Thanks Rich

“Lovely accommodation, great location”

Reviewed 6 Aug 2021

The accommodation was on a lovely, secluded quiet site. Located near to plenty of local attractions. It was spacious, clean, well equipped and comfortable. Within a few minutes drive of a small town with a couple of supermarkets, a good selection of places to eat or get takeaway food. Would definitely stay again if we are ever back in the area.

Squirrel Lodge is very comfortable with everything one needs for an enjoyable holiday. It is very conveniently located for Forest walks and other activities and there are various eating places in reasonable proximity. The car parking space is convenient albeit rather short in length.
