What visitors say

Eleanor Isbitt

A great campsite with lots of space to camp. The bathroom facilities are well maintained. There are 2 taps for drinking water. Ruth was lovely and prepares your pre-ordered breakfast, she even made sure to remember my request for extra crispy bacon in my bap! The only reason I’m not giving a 5 stars is the amount of deep grooves in the ground, some nearly as big as a rabbit or pot holes which posed as a safety hazard and there were a few twisted ankles. Other than that, a lovely and well kept small campsite!

Initially booked as a last minute night away to break up the long journey to Cardiff for a concert. But what started as a convenient break in driving and traffic has resulted in us finding a new campsite to revisit! Can’t wait to return with the dogs and actually spend some quality time at this gem of a site. The owners are nothing short of amazing, we received the warmest of welcomes despite how late we arrived (and their 0430 alarm). Ruth made sure we had everything that we needed, and made sure that we set off the following morning with a hearty breakfast from the onsite breakfast cafe. Would 100% recommend!

We had one of our best annual camping trips with my family here. Ruth and her family are fantastic hosts. The breakfast rolls and café on site are a great addition and made it really convenient. I forgot to order firewood one night when we were a bit later back than expected and Ruth had already messaged me to say she'd put some out for me. She's on the ball and always on hand to help. Lovely clean site and very good facilities. All in all, every box ticked. Highly recommend. Thanks Ruth and family.

Had a wonderful 4 nights here. Surprisingly quiet and peaceful for half term. Absolutely loads of space on a large, flat field. Toilets and showers were excellent as were the kitchen facilities. Massive plus was being able to have a fire and BBQ. Walking distance down a mildly-perilous road to a nice pub, with a brewery and tap room slightly closer too. Great location on the edge of the Cotswolds, close to Tewkesbury and Cheltenham.
