  • 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.

Electric grass pitch

Liked The friendly people on the food van

Disliked Everything else. We informed them we would arrive between 4 and 5, got there about ten to, no-one there so rang the 3 different numbers we had for them, no answer on any and still waiting for call back. Sat for around 20 mins then men on food van just said go round and pitch up, pay tomorrow. The pitches are not marked out well at all but found a spot on electric grass pitch as ordered. Trees and bushes around site had obviously been chopped back, not sure what they used but they were butchered and branches just left in trees, danger of falling, then piles of leaves just left around. Very unkempt site. I use a mobility scooter and the thick yellow stone/gravel made it impossible to move around. My husband had to walk behind me and push. On website it says toilets recently refurbished, must be old site. The toilets are a disgrace, the disabled toilet was filthy, toilet roll holder off the wall, no toilet roll to be be seen, my husband said the men's toilets stunk, each of the toilets were filthy covered in cobwebs and no toilet roll in any. Good job I have a porta potti in van for emergencies, had to use for rest of time there.. definitely a site to be avoided, it's a shame because earlier reviews were good. Seems to have gone downhill lately.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch (no awning)

Liked Nice, helpful, relaxed managers of the site.Flat pitches and easy access to bus service right outside the site. Clean showers and toilets.

Disliked Noise and choice of extremely loud language coming from close by us from, what appeared to be, residential static vans. Most of which seemed to happen whilst they were digging a hole?
Quite pleased we hadn't booked more than a couple of nights.

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.
