Riverside touring park on the Severn, four miles north of Gloucester

About The Red Lion Inn Caravan and Camping Park

The Red Lion Inn Caravan and Camping Park occupies a peaceful stretch of the River Severn at Wainlode Hill, just four miles north of Gloucester's cathedral and historic docks. Level grass pitches sit right on the waterside, giving an unexpectedly rural feel despite being so close to the city—handy for those wanting easy access to Gloucester Quays and the cathedral without pitching up in the urban sprawl itself.

The adjoining Red Lion pub saves on evening cooking duties, and riverside footpaths start directly from site, making it popular with dog owners. Open year-round for tents and touravan, it's one of the few local sites where you can genuinely wake to river views. Some visitors note the facilities can feel a little tired in places, but the trade-off is a genuinely scenic, no-fuss base that puts both countryside and city within easy striking distance.

We went here fishing and camping and was greeted with a friendly face with a man called Shane!! And the site was very clean as was the toilets and the showers I would definitely recommend my family and friends to go here as it’s such beautiful place to visit and people was very friendly to talk to outside the pub
