  • Small dog-friendly site on the banks of the river Severn
  • Adjacent to the Severn Way and half an hour’s walk from the canal
  • Wildlife haven within walking distance of pubs and Frampton on Severn
Craving a peaceful time filled with wildlife watching, long walks and relaxing by the water? On the banks of the River Severn, Baldwin’s Brook Glamping in Gloucestershire fits the bill. This small site is a wildlife haven adjacent to the Severn Way, a long-distance trail which traces the river downstream. Birdwatching prospects are excellent here, and there’s plenty of peace if you’d rather sit and relax by a firepit or check out the stunning views and sunsets. The site is part of a working family farm with lots of livestock. From the farm, it’s a 45-minute walk to Frampton on Severn, which is home to the longest village green in England and the lively Frampton Country Fair (think funfair… and 400 stalls full of good stuff). Baldwin’s Brook Glamping is also half an hour’s walk away from the Cotswold Canal Trust Visitor Centre by The Gloucester and Sharpness Canal if you’d like to grab a spot on a boat trip or sip a coffee by the canal. When you'd rather have a chilled beer, two pubs are within half a mile of the site (only 10 minutes’ walk away). Strike up a conversation with a local about the next Severn Bore, the huge tidal wave which races for 25 miles from Awre to Gloucester down the estuary just a handful of times per year. If you feel you haven’t done quite enough walking yet, the 102-mile Cotswold Way can be tracked down about 15 to 20 minutes’ drive away from the site; it passes by Berkeley Castle, which is otherwise a 20-minute drive away.

Fully-serviced gravel and hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: What a lucky find this was. Small newly opened site with well drained fully serviced gravel touring pitches. If you want to step out of the rat race this is the place. Quiet, peaceful with a stunning view over the river Severn. There are two lovely glamping pods and three touring pitches, the site has minimal facilities at the moment (so you need to be self contained) but all you need for a chilled out time. It's situated between two pubs so what more could you ask for!! Lovely owners who were very helpful and chatty. We wish them good luck in their new venture.

Disliked: Nothing to dislike apart from the rain!!
