Hidden in the Forest of Dean, Clearwell Castle is about 45 minutes from Bristol, Cheltenham and Gloucester.

Overnight parking is available at the venue. The owners kindly ask that cars be collected by 11am the following morning.

The castle has disabled parking spaces as well as access into the castle. Please note that the disabled toilets are on the lower ground floor only, and access via wheelchair will require going outside as there is no lift in the main building.

If you require a taxi at the end of the night, you must pre-book!
