The Beehive - self catering in the heart of the Forest of Dean

Welcome to the Beehive! A recently refurbished one bedroom self-contained annex in the heart of the Forest of Dean. The perfect base to relax after exploring the forest, or sitting with a drink on the patio, listening to the steam train in the distance. There is so much to do in the forest and the best part is that most of it is within walking or cycling distance! You're welcome to bring or hire bikes as we supply a lock and chains to keep them secure outside. Insta: beehiveintheforest The space The Beehive is a self contained annex attached to our home, you have everything you need to enjoy your time here, including full cooking facilities should you wish. We are very lucky in the village to have a great local pub, which serves local food and drink. Within a short walk or cycle to Parkend, we have two other great pubs, the Fountain and the Woodman, which we both highly recommend. A local post office also serves breakfast and lunch. A five minute drive away is Lydney, our local town which offers a multitude of food options, local shops and supermarkets along with multiple takeaways that will deliver to The Beehive. Within walking distance is a great cycle hire company and café (Dean Forest Cycles). It's a beautiful walk through the forest to collect them or a short drive. These can be securely stored at the Beehive with chains supplied and a metal gate to attach them too. Free on road parking available directly outside the property. Guest access You have complete private use of the space. The entrance is through a shared utility room. If you wish to use the washing machine or tumble drier, please let us know. Our honesty bar is also located here - be sure to check it out! Other things to note If you have any questions, comments, feedback, big or small, please let us know and we will be more than happy to help or resolve any issues.
