  • Family-run site with on-site fishing and wild water swimming
  • Over 28 acres of landscaped grounds and a conservation area
  • Peaceful rural location, but near the M50; lakeside sauna on site
Although it's deep in the countryside of rural Herefordshire, Woodside Country Park is well-placed for all sorts of activities. It's just a 10-minute drive from Ledbury and the outskirts of the Malvern Hills National Landscape, and nice and close to the M50 for trips further afield. There's lots of country-themed stuff to do on site and all around too: this family-run park has coarse fishing and wild swimming on site, gentle walks, wildlife spotting and birdwatching – and all in 28 acres of prettily landscaped grounds and a conservation area designed to encourage wildflowers and wildlife. A fairy door trail leads around the park, a favourite for the kids. On top of that, there's a lovely lakeside woodfired sauna available for private hire or public sessions. Take a 15-minute walk along the Herefordshire Trail to reach a nearby winery and vineyard with over 750 years of history, where there are guided tours and tastings and the choice to do a self-guided tour. Guest facilities at Woodside Country Park include three shower and toilet blocks (including an accessible toilet and shower room in one field), washing-up facilities and a launderette.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked The space and tranquility together with the lake, the conservation area and the site’s location.
Also liked the free use of the fridge freezer.
Facilities kept clean and tidy.

Disliked The distance from the non-electric pitches to the facilities.
Not enough facilities if the majority of pitches were occupied.

Liked Friendly, helpful staff. Beautiful site with a lovely lake where dogs and people can swim in. Facilities were unisex but never had any issues, they were always clean. We would love to come back again.

Disliked Had a bit of difficulty finding the site as the postcode takes you further along the road and we didn't see the site from that direction.

Local attractions

Nearby Ledbury is a lovely little market town famed for its cobbled streets and black and white timber-framed buildings: look out for and take a snap of the Market House in the town centre. The town is at almost equal distance from the cathedral towns or 'Three Counties' of Gloucester, Hereford and Worcester and a day should surely be had at each: Gloucester for its Harry Potter-scened cathedral and many museums; Hereford for the Old House, Hereford Cider Museum and Hereford Cathedral's Mappa Mundi; and Worcester for its library The Hive and the Three Choirs Festival (Worcester Cathedral by night is a spectacular sight too). The countryside surrounding Woodside Country Park is known for its Herefordshire sights like hopyards, cider orchards and Hereford cattle, while walkers and cyclists come to this part of the land to hike or bike the Malvern Hills and the Forest of Dean.
