Local Insight
Bay Prince of Wales Hotel is the perfect base for exploring the Cotswolds and the many other attractions it has to offer
- Berkeley Butterfly House
Be transported to another world where hundreds of butterflies dart around their tropical home. With forty-two different species at the farm, this is a great chance to see rare and imported species from as far a field as Japan and Indonesia. Visitors can observe their life cycle up-close through the display of caterpillars and chrysalises. Once outside this peaceful oasis, there is also a gift shop for that inevitable furry caterpillar.
Visit their website - Berkeley Castle
Built to withstand the Welsh in the twelfth century, Berkeley Castle has a turbulent past. The fortress and the Berkeley family, its lifelong owners, have witnessed countless historical events from the first American Thanksgiving back to the murder of King Edward II by red hot poker. Visitors are met with vivid stories of the past as they skirt round the dungeon, navigate the trip steps and admire Queen Elizabeth I’s bedspread. Outside are beautiful picnic grounds and the village’s Norman church.
Visit their website - Dean Forest Railway and Museum
Dean Forest Railway is a popular, family-friendly heritage railway situated in the heart of the Forest of Dean, giving visitors of all ages the chance to experience the atmosphere of a country railway. Both steam and diesel trains run as part of a regular timetable between Lydney Junction and Parkend, with normal tickets being valid for unlimited travel. Special events are held throughout the year, including popular Days Out With Thomas and Santa Specials, with a luxury dining train and hands-on branch line experience courses also available. The Dean Forest Railway Museum at Norchard is packed with local railway artefacts – giving visitors the chance to get an insight into how the railway used to look in yesteryear, as well as see vintage telephone exchange equipment.
Visit their website - Gloucester Folk Museum
Set in 500 year old Tudor timber-framed buildings, one of which was traditionally associated with the final night of the Protestant martyr, Bishop Hooper, the Folk Museum is a complex of rooms on different levels with a unique ambience that makes it a popular sight for locals and visitors. Behind the chocolate-box facade is a museum with a cottage garden to the rear which is both larger than seems possible, and constantly surprising. From treen (small wooden items), to the intriguing story of the river Severn fisheries, from historic costume to the life of the dairy; from the reconstructed Victorian classroom to the original pin factory - all of these plus hundreds of other elements of our local history are to be found here.
