What customers say

This small, well-maintained site is praised for its excellent location behind The Thames Head Inn, with many highlighting the pub's delicious, generous portions and friendly staff. Pitches are generally level and spacious, with EHU. While the site is convenient for exploring the Cotswolds and offers lovely walks, the sole combined toilet/shower facility is frequently mentioned as inadequate, particularly when the site is busy, and some note road noise. Despite this, many guests found it ideal for stopovers and intend to return.

Electric gravel touring pitch (large)

Liked Great pitches at the back of the Inn.. a short walk from the bar and great evening meals. This is our third stay and never been disappointed. The source of the Thames is about 20 to.30.mins away..Great price for a clean pitch.

Disliked Only one loo shower. Really missed s trick ss they do not do breakfasts for those on touring pitches. Would be great to have that option when booking. Paying in advance of course. There is some noise from road close by, but didnt wake us.

Kim W.

Electric gravel touring pitch (large)

Liked Pitches were level. Not a massive site, gravel pitches . Pub and food. Not a lot of ambience in the pub tbh. The young man waiting on tables was exceptionally polite and good at what he did. Thankyou to him for that. Meal portions were big.

Disliked No WiFi signal, no TV signal of any use. Little bit of road and train noise (didn't really cause any bother).

Local attractions

There are plenty of stately homes near The Thames Head Inn if you want to get a feel for the history of the area, with Newark Park, Sudeley Castle, Dyrham Park, Bowood House and Berkeley Castle all within 45 minutes’ drive of the site. TV addict? Visit Chavenage House, 15 minutes from Thames Head, which you may recognise as the Poldark family home of Trenwith from the eponymous BBC drama… If you’re more at home in the outdoors, explore some of the many gardens within 20 minutes of the site, rub elbows with the royals on a trip to Highgrove Gardens at the private residence of Charles and Camilla or, on a grander scale, stroll around the national arboretum at Westonbirt. Got kids trailing along? Get the best of both worlds at Cotswold Wildlife Park and Garden – meet the giraffes, lions and camels, then wander through the gardens at the Victorian manor house. If that’s not hitting the spot, take the kids to learn more about the Romans at Corinium Museum in Cirencester or give them Harry Potter vibes on the Swindon and Cricklade steam railway. If all of this sounds a little too sedate for you, never fear... Have a high-octane day at the Gloucestershire Rally School or test your mettle with a trip to Head for Heights – that adrenaline will be pumping in no time.
