  • Small family-friendly tree-filled site four miles north of Gloucester
  • A 15-minute drive from the Cotswolds and Tewkesbury
  • Bus stop outside to visit Gloucester or Cheltenham and pubs nearby
Settle in at this small but mighty fine place just north of Gloucester and prep for a nice mix of sightseeing and adventures in the Cotswolds National Landscape 15 minutes’ drive to the east. There’s a story behind how Gloucester Camping at Court Farm came to be. After staying at a small campsite in what they describe as an empty, unwelcome field for a week in 2010, the now-owners decided to inject some life into space. They stayed a bit longer than anticipated and used the blank canvas to plant a few hundred 12-inch trees. Now, years later, the location reflects a site that their mums and dads would have liked to stay on when they were kids: a small, homely site with spacious pitches and heaps of greenery to rest and relax in full. The trees are still being nurtured by the same owners, and the profits go back to the property owners as agreed 10 years ago. Facilities now include showers and toilets. The location’s pretty excellent too, four miles north of the centre of Gloucester, with pubs, shops and restaurants about five minutes’ drive away. The 71 bus service from right outside the site’s gate goes to both Gloucester and Cheltenham (a further nine miles out). If you’re on a journey from the north to the west country, the A38 is just five miles south and the M5 is three miles away too (10 minutes’ drive). So, if you wish to break a longer journey up with a pitstop in Gloucester, this is the place to do so. A full holiday can easily be had here though, what with days out at the Stonelea Riding Centre (20 minutes’ drive) and Rodway Hill Golf Club (20 minutes) so close by.

What customers say

This campsite offers a peaceful and well-maintained environment with friendly staff and a convenient location close to Gloucester via public transport. Pitches are generally spacious and level, with clean facilities. However, some visitors have noted issues with hygiene, bin management, and dated ablution blocks. Some also mentioned noise from traffic and ongoing site works. The site's location and general atmosphere are often praised, though improvements to maintenance and facilities would enhance the overall experience.

Disliked WORST HYGIENE EVER!!!

The hygiene is the worst I have ever experienced. We stayed 7 nights and the bathroom was only cleaned twice. The scum build up in the showers behind the glass screen is discussing and is a build up of weeks of poor cleaning. The urinal is leaking in the mens loo and seeping into the cubical so there is no way to go to the toilet without getting your feet wet from dirty water.


The staff were more concerned with taking cigarette brakes then cleaning the communal areas.

The cleaning in process sign with a brush was left outside the mens loo for 4 days with no progress.

We ended up finding alternative places to shower.

The bins were overflowing and the lack of care to keep the site clean was apparent. There were dog poo bags left in the drinking water area.

Local attractions

While you’re so close to Gloucester, a day of sightseeing may be one of the first things up on your itinerary. There’s Gloucester Cathedral (15 minutes' drive) and the Gloucester Docks (15 minutes) for a good dose of history and Gloucester Rugby Club in Kingsholm (10 minutes) for sporting events. Or you may wish to dine by the docks – perhaps starting with brunch after finishing with sunrise yoga on a paddleboard. Tewkesbury (15 minutes) is a historic riverside destination with medieval streets and river boat trips for more peaceful days out. Or you may prefer to board the Gloucestershire Warwickshire Steam Railway (half an hour) and extend your expedition with a steam train journey. Otherwise, stick around Cheltenham (20 minutes) to catch the racecourse, fine art museum and Victorian Everyman Theatre. Stow-on-the-Wold (45 minutes) and Bourton-on-the-Water (40 minutes) are other destinations to add to your Cotswolds-based relaxation itinerary.
