We took up this same offer last summer and, IMHO, we were ripped off.
The accommodation is not, by my definition, 'glamping' - you are effectively sleeping on a very thin PE mat on a bit of hardboard in a shed.
You are also in the middle of nowhere with nothing - except the diving school - to do on site.

Deluxe cabin available only to persons aged 18 or over which means no children. Rubbish.

It's a Wowcher offer, so chances are you can't check availability and will end up having to pick a mid-week stay when you don't really want it.
And with unlimited number of people buying the offer, you can be sure that more than a handful will end up out of pocket.

Looks great, very tempted, unfortunately dogs only allowed in the basic wigwams which means communal facilities !

Not when talking, but there's usually at least one screamer or moaner each weekend so you're probably better off in a travelodge

These make me laugh. I've known people to stay in these yet laugh at us for having a touring caravan. These are so so basic in comparison yet people are happy to stay in effectively a heated shed!

Mind you, they should allow the kids in, be less whinging on flights spoiling everyone's trip

Pay £39 to drive for 3 1/2 hours so I can sleep in a shed? The one at the bottom of my garden is only 5 mins walks away and it's free too! :smile:

Is the Forest of Dean out of bounds for walking? Do they frisk you when you arrive and take away any reading matter?

Not if you have to take 5 year old autistic son with you.

It takes you 5 mins to walk to your shed?
Lucky you, mines a 10 minute drive away.

It should also be pointed out that this isn't really great for those with young children or the elderly as stated on their website, yet not on Wowcher. ..... "Please Note: Our Wigwam® Cabins are located close to a large quarry, where most of the site-based scuba diving takes place. Thus, children should be supervised at all times. Our site is not particularly child-friendly, and it might not be suitable for families with young children or the elderly"
