The Royal Forest of Dean – The Forest of Dean was a royal hunting preserve in Norman times and today, the forested hills and river valleys are still incredibly peaceful. | |
 Wander
through the Puzzle Wood near Coleford, or ride on a steam train,
the Dean Forest Railway (Lydney) or the Perrygrove Railway (Coleford). |
|||
| Cruise down the serene Symonds Yat River in the lazy summer afternoon. |
|||
| On
a more industrial note, explore Clearwell Caves, natural caverns
mined for iron ore since the Roman era. |

Gloucester Cathedral (Gloucester) – Gloucester Cathedral is Gothic architecture at its best and avid Harry Potter fans will recognize many exteriors from the movie (students of the King’s School next door were extras.) |

|
The House of the Tailor of Gloucester (Gloucester) – Beatrix Potter sketched this house for The Tailor of Gloucester. The house is absolutely charming, and you'll feel like you've stepped into in the story. |
