Pat & Brian invite you to relax unwind in our elegant Georgian House at the heart of the Royal Forest of Dean. Built in 1850, Edale House faces the cricket green in the village of Parkend. Once the home of Bill Tandy, author of 'A Doctor in the Forest', the house has been tastefully restored to provide a comfortable haven in an area of outstanding natural beauty and history.
Walkers and Cyclists welcome
The Forest of Dean is situated between the River Severn and River Wye, a place of natural beauty covering 35 square miles. One of the few remaining areas in England of ancient forests; it has 27,000 acres of Crown woodland. It was once a hunting ground for Norman Kings. Much of the timber was used to build the ships for the Royal Navy. To build Nelson's flagship "the Victory" required 3,500 trees! In 1938 Forest of Dean was designated a National Forest Park, the first in England.
