General
- Small and friendly site 100 yards from the River Severn
- Close to a riverside 15th-century inn
- A short walk from Tewkesbury via the pub's ferry
Take time out for a spot of fishing on the River Severn, followed by a drink in the 15th-century inn nearby, where the views are as tasty as the food and drink...
The Willows is a small, friendly site in a spectacular and hugely handy location: despite being encircled by lush scenery with the river (and separately owned pub) a mere hundred yards away, it’s a 50-minute walk into the lovely historic town of Tewkesbury (or 10 minutes when the pub's ferry is running).
You can pick up your freshwater fishing permit in the pub (as if you needed an excuse for a visit...).
Open from 01/03/2023 to 30/10/2023

Local attractions
Slotted into a slender strip of land at the meeting point of the Severn and Avon rivers, Tewkesbury hasn’t changed much over the centuries: black and white Tudor buildings overhang the narrow streets, and the 12th-century abbey has the highest Norman tower in England. There are town and country museums to explore, historic buildings like the Old Baptist Chapel, plus shops and entertainment aplenty.
The local countryside and riverbanks are great for ramblers and guests can find boat and bike hire, windsurfing and golf courses nearby. Also on your doorstep are the golden villages and verdant hills of the Cotswolds and attractive provincial towns and cities such as Cheltenham and Gloucester.
