What customers say
This small, peaceful campsite offers beautiful, secluded settings with abundant wildlife and lovely lake views. Facilities include a communal kitchen/lounge area with essential appliances, and many guests appreciated personal touches like morning milk and hot water. Its location provides easy access to walking routes and the nearby village of Painswick.

Managers have noted plans to address washroom improvements.

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Fantastic site. Beautiful surroundings. Level pitches. Pretty fishing lake. Indoor kitchen area with sink, kettle, microwave and fridge. Good sized toilet and shower. Large sofa and tables, indoors. Plenty of picnic benches. Tall trees around the lake giving shade when needed. Very friendly and helpful owner.
Short stroll, up hill into the pretty village of Painswick with shop, cafés, chemist.
Ideal for those like me walking the Cotswold Way.

Liked Excellent large flat area for pitching the tent, easy access to drinking water, building with a kettle, microwave and sofas, chairs and tables from which I could watch the tortential rain falling on the lake whilst charging my phone. Walk to the site was downhill from the Cotswold Way which was good after a long hike (although you obviously have to walk back up it when leaving). Conveniently placed food shop and a cafe half way between the trail and the site.

Wonderfull Time.
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Spacious space, just before The season starts. I was there for one night only but its was well worth to be. Lots of walk trails around and fresh, morning breeze from the fields.
Disliked No dislikes. I do not know how about The peak season there.

Good showers, and handy barn rest room and kitchen.

Liked Lovely setting. Quiet and sheltered.
The host made the effort to check I was ok, despite the fact I had communicated/paid remotely, which was a welcome surprise.
Disliked Steep hill back into Painswick 😂😂😂

Basic, but needs signage and maybe a welcome!
Anonymous Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Location was great, small but enough space for a big 2 man tent.
Disliked Only one toilet/shower for the campsite which isn’t ideal. Nobody to meet us and show us where the facilities were, there is no signage and no indication that we could find and use the main room and kitchen etc. it’s expensive for 2 people and one tent for walk on campers.

From the manager: So sorry I didn’t greet you on your arrival.
There is one separate toilet and one toilet/shower room.
In my description of the site it tells you what is available for campers.
Enjoy the rest of trip.
Peaceful, good amenities, great location
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Great location. listening to the distant waterfall as you drift off to sleep was a real highlight. Despite being a working farm, it was surprisingly quiet, very peaceful, and probably the best campsite I’ve stayed at in Gloucestershire.
Hot running water and an instant hot shower were much appreciated, and the bathroom felt like a proper one you’d find in a house, which is a massive bonus at a campsite.
Really enjoyed my stay and would happily come back again.
I also got 40mb download and 10 upload on my Vodafone sim card, and on my EE sim card about the same, so phone signal was great on both networks.
Disliked Nothing

Friendly staff, quiet site
Anonymous Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked I loved the remote, quiet and secluded nature of this camping trip. The setting was beautiful and included a lake.
I loved that there was a kitchen with kettle - which made getting warm after some rain easier than warming in a tent alone! The location makes many walks and runs accessible very quickly.

Liked Its a really nice camping area and there is also a common room with a kettle and a microwave, so you dont need to mess around with a camping stove to have a cup of tea in the morning.
