  • Quiet Gloucestershire farm site among 64 acres of orchards
  • A 15-minute drive to Gloucester; 20 minutes to Forest of Dean
  • On the banks of the River Severn, with riverside pub 10 minutes' walk
As locations for a Gloucestershire break go, this is a particularly fine one. Broadway Farm Camping is part of a quiet sheep farm on the banks of the River Severn, with 64 fabulous acres of ancient orchards full of mature apple, plum, cherry and pear trees. All of that makes this a pretty fabulous place to spend some time – and the owners Andrew and Debra agree, so they’re doing their best to preserve the natural environment, installing wildling projects and working to conserve biodiversity and wildlife habitats on site. They’ve also signed up to the Greener Camping Club, so you’ll need to be a member to stay here. A year-long membership is automatically included in the cost of your stay, so if you're already a member make sure to tick the relevant extra box for your discount. This is a lovely area for walking, and you’ll be welcome to start your explorations with a stroll around the farm’s grounds. Beyond that you can head out onto the Severn Way for riverside rambles long or short – either way, you’ll no doubt have earned a drink at the Severn Bore Inn, a 10-minute walk from the farm. Both the Forest of Dean and the Wye Valley National Landscape are a short drive away too, for more walks among splendid scenery (and yes, your dog is welcome to join you for those walks and a stay here…). Facilities on the farm are simple but nicely done – you’ll have access to a fridge-freezer, a washing machine and dryer, a compost toilet and an amenities block with two toilets, two showers and three washing-up sinks. Shops are 15 minutes’ drive away in Cinderford.

What customers say

A wonderfully natural campsite nestled in orchards by the River Severn, offering lovely walks and proximity to the Forest of Dean. Campers praise the large, private pitches, friendly and welcoming owners, and excellent value, especially with The Greener Camping Club. Basic but clean facilities include hot showers, and fire pits with logs are provided. Some road noise is noted, but can be mitigated by choosing pitches further from the road or in the second field. A beautiful, peaceful escape for nature lovers.

Liked Peaceful site, not overcrowded, lovely large pitches, offering shade which was a must during my stay in the middle of a heatwave ! 🥵

Facilities were good, especially the showers, nice change to have a decent shower on a campsite! Location is excellent, public transport at the end of the road, and a pub 10 mins walk away.

All in all throughly enjoyed my stay and will definitely be back.

Liked I Love this Natural site and lovely owners. By the River Severn - lovely walks, Forest of Dean close. In an orchard. A toilet in the field to save walking to the toilets near the entrance.

Rustic showers - hot water!

Disliked Road noise but go further up the field it is just in the distance and not heard in my van at all.

Liked I Love it here! Green and natural on their orchards and right by the River Severn- lovely walks.

I have been 4 times and will go again!

Basic but clean facilities.

Lovely owners and Brilliant price once you have joined the The Greener Camping Club ( £12 a year included in the first stays fee and well worth it- lovely natural sites in the UK)

It is normally quiet but this time I went and their were a big group of families who very inconsiderate and noisey.

Disliked Just the noisey group!

Local attractions

A walk along the Severn Way is a must, of course – especially if you happen to be here around the time of the Severn Bore, an intriguing natural tidal surge that also attracts surfers and kayakers keen to try something a bit different. There are also loads of great walks and things to see over in the Wye Valley National Landscape – a few favourites are Clearwell Caves (half an hour), Puzzle Wood (half an hour) and Tintern Abbey (45 minutes). You may also like to try canoeing from Symonds Yat (35 minutes) or visiting the Forest of Dean (20 minutes) for bike rides, a Go Ape course and a colourful sculpture trail. Heading the other way, you could spend some time in Gloucester (15 minutes), visiting the cathedral and National Waterways Museum or joining spooky tours at Gloucester Prison Events. A little way outside the city, there are more attractions like the Jet Age Museum (20 minutes) and Painswick Rococo Garden (25 minutes).
