About Blacksmiths Arms
Blacksmiths Arms is a campground in Yorkley, on the edge of the Forest of Dean. Pitches are spacious and well-maintained, with views across the surrounding woodland. Facilities include heated showers and a washing-up area, kept to a high standard. The staff are known for being helpful with local advice.
The real draw here is the immediate access to the forest itself. Walks and cycle paths run directly from the site, so you can step out of your pitch into miles of woodland exploration without needing to drive anywhere. The Deanwood Holiday Cottages & Campsite is just a few minutes' walk away if you want to check out a neighbouring site. The location works well for anyone wanting to base themselves for outdoor activity in the Forest of Dean rather than treat camping as a sideline.
