General
- Forest of Dean pitches on the banks of the River Severn
- A 20-minute drive to Puzzlewood; half an hour to Symonds Yat
- Dog-friendly café on site for breakfast and lunch seven days a week
What a location this is for an open-air stay… book a break here and you can wake up to stunning views over the River Severn before strolling over to the on-site café to get your day off to a tasty start with a cooked breakfast (or just a bacon bap and a coffee if that’s more your style…)
Silver Fox Café and Camping is in a prime position here, right on the riverbank within the Forest of Dean, and with the Gloucestershire village of Newnham about half a mile away for shops and other essentials. The A48 is handily just outside too, so you’ll be able to get out and about easily enough for activities and days out (and there are a couple of pubs close by too for a little drink once you’ve made it back).
There’s a great atmosphere at this family-run site, and it’s small enough to be able to offer a real personal service to all guests. Dogs are welcome both on site and in the café, and there’s plenty of space to spread out a little bit on the pitches. Amenities are sorted with a shower and toilet block on site.
Surely the biggest draw here though is the café, which is open seven days a week to serve up a range of breakfasts, lunches and hot and cold drinks – plus a carvery for Sunday lunch too.
Open from 30/06/2023 to 28/08/2023
