Introduction
Berkeley Forest House is a handsome Georgian manor house, attached to a Queen Anne residence. Set on a beautiful slightly raised site looking over undulating fields towards Mount Leinster and in the midst of 25 acres of parkland grazed with Jacob sheep and shaded with 200 year old beech trees, it is a haven of both serenity and creativity.
Here you can enjoy a relaxing and private holiday or at another time get actively involved with the creativity that imbues the house, garden and landscape by attending a workshop or study day.
The house is available for weekend and mid week stays and offers a beguiling experience, as it has been little altered only to provide for the needs of contemporary living. With a beautiful faded brick walled garden with a terrace, summer house and an outdoor fireplace, it is a delight throughout the day.
The Berkeley Forest Craft School will be offering residential and non-residential courses in Millinery, Felting, Embroidery, Tapestry weaving, Costume making and many other crafts. Places on the courses will be limited to ensure quality of attention. The first course will be on Millinery and will include a detailed tour of the 19th century Costume and Accessories Collection housed at Berkeley Forest, guided by Ann Bernstorff .
