Things to do & places to go

Wildlife

Fallow deer, wild boar, peregrine falcons, buzzards and the endangered forest white butterfly are just some of the things to see. And plant life is just as exciting, visit for the bluebells or to see the autumn colours.

Bird watching: as well as the peregrine falcons nesting at Symonds Yat Rock you may be lucky enough to see goshawks, osprey, red kites, kestrels, sparrowhawks and treecreepers. Barn owls hunt in the field behind the Lodge and you will hear and see the buzzards circling and ravens in the Forest. The RSPB man the Rock in spring and summer.
