What customers say
This is a well-maintained, friendly campsite with excellent, clean facilities. Pitches are spacious, and the location is ideal for exploring the Forest of Dean, with easy access to local walks and Coleford town. Guests praise the helpful staff and on-site shop/cafe. Minor issues include a bumpy access road and occasional noise from other guests, though the site generally upholds a quiet atmosphere.

Bell tent
Liked Very spacious tent. Very clean and comfortable. Excellent facilities including 1 ring gas cooker, cutlery and dishes. The site itself is lovely and quiet, loads of walks nearby, including easy walk into Coleford. Lots of shops in Coleford if you need supplies.
Disliked Only 1 small pot for cooking. However excellent hardware shop in town where I bought a new frying pan!
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Oh no! I am really sorry about the lack of pots! The previous guest burnt the other and I had to throw it away - I meant to replace it but completely forgot. If you had popped to reception and let us know, we would have got a replacement. We will get that done!
Thanks for the great review. The tent would usually come with a BBQ too and log burner or firepit but we are advised against naked flame in the heat wave so have removed them. We do hope to welcome you back!
