July holidays in UK forest destinations

With summer in full swing, the forest comes alive with golden sunshine, long lazy days, and warm, starlit evenings. Whether you're soaking in the hot tub, dining outdoors on your decking, or exploring woodland trails, there’s no better time to reconnect with nature. Let the kids run wild, spot wildlife between the trees, or simply sit back and savour the peace. July is your chance to slow down, breathe deeply, and enjoy the summer the way it was meant to be.

Forest Holidays log cabins and lodges are located at 13 forest destinations around the UK. The best places to holiday in July include Cropton & Keldy in North Yorkshire, Glentress Forest near Edinburgh, and Strathyre in Ben Ledi.
