About Cat Grove
The woodland at Cat Grove is proper old-growth forest - the kind of place where you actually feel like you've stepped away from things rather than just popped round the corner. It's on the edge of Dursley, which makes it easy to access without needing a major expedition, and the trees here have clearly been left alone for decades. Walking through feels genuine; you're not on some manicured path with interpretive signs every thirty seconds.
What you get is woodland as it should be - dense canopy, decent shade, roots underfoot that keep you alert. The space works well for families with kids old enough to manage uneven ground; younger ones might find it a bit relentless after an hour or so. Dog walkers will rate it highly, and if you're after that quiet morning walk before breakfast, this delivers. It's not a destination in itself - you're looking at maybe ninety minutes maximum for a proper explore - but it's exactly the sort of thing that rounds out a day when you're based nearby.
Stay at Pepper Pot just 3.2 miles away or head to Wixoldbury Farm Glamping if you want something with more comfort, and Cat Grove becomes a natural addition to exploring the Cotswold edge. The woodland isn't famous or crowded, which is rather the point. Worth the detour if you're in the area and need something green and quiet.
