Current Connections

We have several regular groups hiring our woodland, many of whom have been renting the space for years and who have made the BFS forest their home. Please check out their websites for info:

Woodland hire

The Bristol Forest School site can be enjoyed for a range of sessions. Our beautiful woodland is available to hire for one-off and repeated sessions.

  • A half-day is charged from £35 (up to four hours use of the woods).

  • A full day is charged from £50 (up to eight hours use of the woods).

  • A wheelbarrow of wood can be purchased for £10.

The area includes open space suitable for various activities and games, campfire/log circles, cob pizza ovens and compost toilets. For more details see Our Woodland.

Build your own

Our staff are highly skilled with a variety of unique specialisms – ranging from bush-craft experts and fireside storytellers to willow-weavers and bee-keepers. We also have experience working with children and adults in a range of settings. As such, we can accommodate all manner of nature-loving whims, for any occasion. Past events include Father’s Day in the Woods, private Holiday Forest School, specialised bonding days for adopted children, the Shift Bristol roundhouse build, a weekly outdoor ‘Men’s Club’ and Woodland Volunteer Days.

If you have an idea in mind, a skill you’d like to learn, or loved ones who deserve a treat – get in touch and we can plan your perfect day in the woods.
