Liked Found this site here on pitch up we originally booked for one night as a stopover on our way home to Yorkshire which was extended to two.The staff on reception are very polite, helpful and friendly we were allocated our pitch and given a site map which was marked out where our pitch was. The pitch was hard standing with gravel and grass very spacious with hedges either side giving it a degree of privacy, also it was very level I only had to adjust the jockey wheel to get it spot on. We were pitched very close to the toilet and shower block which was a bonus, the toilet block is very modern and some of the nicest and cleanest I've seen on a touring site. The showers are push button type and can be a bit tricky getting the temperature you want but once you've mastered that they're spot on. Initially I was concerned that there wouldn't be enough to service the whole site, the site was almost at capacity for the whole of our stay and I never had to qué once. All the other facilities are situated around the toilet block elsan, grey waste and fresh water waste are all next to the recycling waste and very tidy. To the rear of the block is a laundry room we never used that but it looks well equipped. The other side of the block is the pot washing station with large deep sinks and plenty of hot water. Overall the site is kept well manicured and clean we loved it so much our two night stay turned into a four night stay and we will definitely be returning in the future. A couple of things to note the site is in close proximity to the A40 and under the flight path of Gloucester airport so in daylight hours there is some noise but during the night this is greatly reduced and never bother us at all. Also if you're following your satnav it will tell you you have reached your destination while your on the A40 when you clearly haven't, study your maps and street view and you can't go wrong.

Liked Pitch was level and a decent size. Close proximity to the major towns in the area. Easy to access the M5 for travelling.

Disliked Site felt cramped, cars everywhere. No facilities worth talking about such as a shop, pub, restaurant or the like. Toilet/shower facilities whilst clean in need of updating to match the best sites. A lot of road noise and noise from the airport.

From the manager: Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry your stay didn’t meet your expectations. Many guests compliment our spacious pitches, convenient location, and modern washrooms, so we’re disappointed these didn’t suit you on this occasion.

For anyone visiting, there are two supermarkets (Asda and Aldi) along with a Harvester and Greene King just a 10/15 minute stroll away. Not forgetting the 24-hour bus service outside the gate to both Cheltenham and Gloucester.

We appreciate you choosing to stay with us and wish you all the best on your future travels.

Liked Adults only. We had a very warm welcome, everything was fully explained. The facilities were spotless, with piped music throughout. Pitches spacious and private, with hedges separating them. We really enjoyed our stay, having a Chinese takeaway delivered to the site.

Disliked Nothing.

Liked Lovely quiet site, really handy for a couple of local places to eat and Asda nearby for any items.

Lovely lady greeted me and gave me the site layout map with my pitch number on and wi-fi code. Lots of local information on the reception.

Site is secure with number plate recognition barriers.

Nice level pitch and very quiet despite what seemed to be a busy road at the back when I pulled in.

The shower and toilet block facilities were excellent and spotlessly clean.

Asda etc within walking distance, KFC and a couple of other shops.

A real credit to the owners and another site I would definitely visit again.

Thank you.

Disliked Nothing to dislike what a fantastic site this is.

Liked The site is only a couple of miles from the M5 which made the journey simpler. I was staying for a couple of nights to break my journey. Checking in was very easy and a much needed map was given. I loved the individual pitches that were hedged and ensured privacy. The facilities were very clean and easily accessible. I love Dorothy's Field which is an enclosed field for dogs.

Disliked The hum of the motorway is constant but wasn't a problem for me but may be for others if they need complete silence to sleep. I found it quite soporific! Dorothy's Field is very uneven and potentially could cause falls for dogs and owners so care should be taken.

From the manager: Thank you so much, Rosalind, for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review. We’re so pleased you enjoyed the easy check-in, the privacy of the pitches, and of course Dorothy’s Field for your dog.

You’re quite right to mention the uneven ground there. This is a new addition to the site this summer, and with the long dry spell since March, the lack of rain has caused deep cracks that we haven’t yet been able to roll out. As soon as the ground softens enough, getting Dorothy’s Field levelled is our top priority. In the meantime, we’ve placed signs around to remind visitors to take care.

We’re delighted you’d recommend us and hope to welcome you back again on another journey soon.
