Forest of Dean Beechenhurst Reviews

We visited today and what an amazing place. The staff were so lovely especially the one instructor that helped me across a part I struggled with. He was very patient with me and very reassuring. Exceptional service he definitely made me feel safe. He also was very supportive and made me not give up. Thank you ☺️

Absolutely brilliant time doing the Treetop Adventure at Beechenhurst. All of the instructors were great, from beginning to end, but a special mention to Sam who very diligently operated the brake line on the zip wires for my son’s benefit and (I think) Sophia who gave instruction and encouragement at one point from the ground, thereby persuading my boy to complete a particularly challenging section of the course when he felt he wanted to turn back.

Go Ape at the Forest of Dean was such a thrilling experience! Alice & I did the full four courses on the treetop adventure and wow what a buzz! It’s great to feel alive when you get to do something out of your comfort zone! All the staff were incredibly helpful and had a well thought out system, everything ran so smoothly.
