Welcome to Oakwood Vale Lodges
Tree Tops and Squirrel Lodge are beautifully situated with stunning views over the Forest of Dean. Surrounded by wildlife, you will see an abundance of birds, including many birds of prey soaring above you, whilst relaxing in the hot tub.
For walkers, a wealth of woodland walks guiding you through the forest, are right on your doorstep. You may catch a glimpse of the deer, bunnies, squirrels and even the wild boar! If you’re very lucky, you may even catch sight of The Gruffalo if you venture to Beechenhurst, just 5 miles away! The lodges are an absolute haven for fun seekers with one of the UK’s best cycle trails and downhill mountain bike courses, along with abseiling, caving and canoeing or paddleboarding on the River Wye.
Just 2 miles away, you can find the spectacular Clearwell Caves, providing 4500 years of history hidden below ground. A fun filled family favourite, is Perrygrove Railway and Tree Top Adventure, or you can explore the enchanted Puzzlewood, where scenes from Harry Potter, Dr Who and Star Wars (to name but a few) were filmed.
The lodges are perfectly situated with 3 country pubs, serving a wide variety of delicious and traditional dishes, all within a mile. The Market Town of Coleford, just under 2 miles away, has its imposing central Clock Tower and Georgian facades, offering lots of shopping opportunities providing local produce and unique gifts.

What Our Customers Say
LJSpenny
A perfect weekend getaway in the forest with beautiful views from the decking and lots of time spent relaxing in the hot tub. The lodge was very clean and well looked after and the added extras of a couple of Easter eggs was a lovely treat. We enjoyed the nearby sculpture trail and a gorgeous sunny day at Symmonds Yat. The dog loved having the forest on the door step too! Thank you Kelly

We have just stayed in squirrel lodge, and we absolutely loved it! Beautiful scenery, great location, lovely walks and only a few minutes drive to shops and pubs. Fantastic location if you want a relaxing break, and being dog friendly is a bonus. This is our second stay this year, will definitely be back soon. Thanks to Kelly for making our stay so perfect

The lodge is set in a great location, walks straight into the forest, which was perfect for our two springers. Our lodge was spotless when we arrived and the owner was prompt at responding to us. We will definitely be back as we had the best time, thank you
Beck L
The lodge was spotless and Kelly was more than willing to help out with any queries or questions! Beautiful views too, the hot tub was the best part of our stay, so relaxing. Dog friendly too so we could all have a holiday as a family without the worry of someone staying home to dog sit! Would definitely return. Thanks again Kelly x

Squirrel Lodge was tidy and homey with everything as advertised and we have a great stay for friend’s birthday weekend. Clearly a well kept property Plenty of wildlife to see and great view from outside on the deck/ while relaxing in the hot tub helped by the clear dry weather. Lovely and quiet and pretty walk into the forest next to the lodges. Also had great day out and boat trip in Symonds Yat East 20 min drive away and dinner at the Miners Sling which we walked to. Would stay again.

Comfortable and well-equipped cottage with an amazing view. We loved watching the birds in the morning and sitting in the hot tub to watch the sun go down. Loads to do in the area. Would definitely recommend!

Lodge was perfect …. the deck/hot tub look out over the treetops (hence the name I guess!) so loads of birds. Very peaceful, perfect for a break from life. Shower water pressure amazing! Good Wi-Fi. Nice walk straight into the forest.
