What customers say
This campsite is praised for its friendly, helpful owners and excellent location, particularly for mountain biking and exploring the Forest of Dean. Visitors consistently highlight the cleanliness of the facilities, including showers and toilets. Many appreciate the spacious, flat pitches and the relaxed atmosphere. While generally well-received as a basic, good-value site, some guests noted the limited number of toilets and showers during peak times, and a lack of hot water for washing up. A few reviews mentioned occasional road noise and occasional issues with other guests' behaviour.

Lovely site waking distance to amenities with friendly owners.
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Not too overcrowded despite being a sunny bank holiday. Very close to the forest as well as coleford (shops & takeaways) both walking distance. Clean toilets.
Disliked Only two flushing toilets which did sometimes have a short queue, but there were also two portaloos and it was a busy bank holiday.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Great location for exploring the local area. The campsite was clean and well maintained. There are 2 toilets and 2 shower cubicles and an uncovered washing up area. There is also a small tuck shop with a freezer available for freezing your ice blocks. The owners were very helpful and regularly on spot.
Disliked I didn't like the proximity to the road as it is a fairly busy one, although hedging has been planted. So over the next few years it won't be so noticeable.

From the manager: Hi
Thanks for the great feedback back.
If you had asked we could have charged your power banks as we have electricity in the tuck shop which can be used by paying few pound to cover electricity.
Hope to see you guys again .
Many thanks .
Great campsite, friendly staff, but noisy at night
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked The facilities were fantastic for this type of campsite. The toilets were clean and the shower had plenty of hot water, there were also fire pits and logs available to purchase. It was within walking distance of the town and the staff were friendly.
Disliked Loud music and people arguing and shouting at eachother into the early hours of the morning meant we didn't really sleep much. There isn't an enforced quiet time, so expect some noise.

From the manager: Hi
Thank you for the lovely review.
I’m sorry you had to encounter other people being disruptive and causing you guys stress, unfortunately this is something I can’t police once I’m gone to bed if I don’t know about it when it’s happening.
We actually do have a noise curfew at 10pm which is a pity some of our fellow campers don’t adhere to it .
My apologies.
Nice little site, clean facilities
