  • Small family-run site on an organic cattle farm
  • Adjacent to the River Severn and close to the Severn Way
  • Community-owned village pub within walking distance
Set in a perry pear orchard on an organic cattle farm: that sounds almost poetic. As are the views from the spectacularly scenic little place of West End Farm Campsite, set in the horseshoe bend of the River Severn on the edge of the peaceful Gloucestershire village of Arlingham, and adjacent to the river with easy access to the footpaths of the Severn Way. A rather smashing pub is within easy walking distance too: the Red Lion freehouse (owned by the village, hurrah) with tiptop locally sourced food, real ale and regular events like quiz nights and folk nights – all just the ticket after a peaceful pedal or serene stroll along the river paths or region's quiet flat roads…? West End Farm has a toilet block and chemical disposal. Both barbecues and campfires are allowed on site.

What customers say

This is a peaceful, rural campsite ideal for walkers and nature lovers, situated near the River Severn. Pitches are generally spacious and private, separated by hedges. The site offers a friendly atmosphere, with a nearby pub and farm cafe praised for their food. Facilities are basic but adequate for many, though some reviews mention inconsistent cleanliness and water pressure. Limited phone signal is a common observation.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked Great location, flat pitch and love the hedges between pitches.

Disliked Would have preferred if the grass was shorter - lost pegs in the long grass and the time of year meant heavy dew and very wet feet for dogs and humans!!
Also a bit strange that the path to the the toilet block goes over the corner of the pitch closest to the block.

Electric optional gravel touring pitch

Liked Nice clean straightforward small site. Plenty of room around pitches.
Nice location with family run cafe and coffee shop nearby serving excellent breakfasts as well as a variety of other options including cakes and all Manor of drinks.
Also a community run pub 5 minutes walk away, with a good selection of beers and wines, as well as some top notch food on offer.
Highly recommended.

Local attractions

West End Farm Campsite's local village is Arlingham, also in the River Severn's horseshoe bend and just off Junction 13 of the M5. The area around the village is fab walking and cycling land, of public footpaths, riverside ambles and flat peaceful roads – all set among the first-class scenery of the England/Wales border area. (Don't know where to start? Ask at the Red Lion for details of their hare, salmon, cattle and skylark wanders.) A couple of miles from the farm is the Gloucester and Sharpness Canal, running between Sharpness and the old docks of Gloucester. It's a pleasant place to while away a few meandering hours, particularly around Patch Bridge, close to the Wildfowl Reserve at Slimbridge which has the world's biggest collection of captive wildfowl. Other local options are Berkeley and the Edward Jenner Museum, where the clever chap first figured out vaccination, and Berkeley Castle, where poor old Edward 2 met his grisly end. Gloucester Cathedral is nine miles from the site; a little further afield are the Norman castle of Goodrich and the Tudor National Trust-managed house of Newark Park.
