  • Peaceful family-run park two miles from Stratford-upon-Avon
  • Shop, off-licence, free hot showers and spotless facilities
  • Regular bus service from right outside the site
Settle yourselves down here, Shakespeare fans: Dodwell Park is just two miles from Shakespeare’s birthplace, Anne Hathaway’s cottage and all the bardly attractions of Stratford-upon-Avon. There’s peace, there’s quiet, there’s a countryside setting – and if all that still isn’t enough for a final attempt to get the kids (and dog) reading sonnets, you can culture-ise them by taking them along to nearby Warwick Castle for all sorts of horrible history. Sorted. Dodwell Park is a small family-run site where the amenities are kept to spotless standards, with free hot showers, dishwashing facilities and hairdryers to keep the barnet looking tiptop. A shop and off-licence is on site, and armfuls of leaflets are at the information stand with info on Stratford-upon-Avon and other local tourist attractions. Nearby are Cotswold villages with Shakespearely thatched inns, walks and cruises along the River Avon and the hills of the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Boating, fishing and old buildings are at Luddington village about three miles from Dodwell Park. Leaving the car behind to avoid hiking up car parking costs in Stratford? A regular bus service stops right outside the site.

What customers say

This campsite offers a convenient location with a bus stop right outside for easy access to Stratford-upon-Avon. Visitors praise the friendly and helpful staff, the cleanliness of the site, and the peaceful atmosphere. However, many reviews mention that the toilet and shower facilities are dated and could benefit from an upgrade, with some also noting issues with pitch levels and closeness.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked It was quite on the touring pitch. However, noisy occupant from the statics on the other side of the fence disturbed my peace and quiet.

Disliked Attention to refurbishment of the washing facilities, plus also the freshwater tap at the pitch

Electric gravel touring pitch

Liked Another lovely weekend away at dodwell park... lovely weather for october, and a gentle 30 minute stroll into Stratford for a meal and drinks... clean and tidy camping site, facilities are a little basic, but they are clean... we have noticed a couple of subtle changes/improvements like better hand dryers and proper shower controls and not push buttons every 60 seconds... and theyre clean. Dodwell is a well presented site, in a good location, just 1.5 miles out of stratford, and on a major bus route. Quiet and peaceful for relaxing and resting, and close enough to get amongst the hustle and bustle of the town life. We will definitely be back, already looking at possibly next month maybe for the Christmas lights switch on... give it a go, im sure you will enjoy, and return again.

Local attractions

To Stratford-upon-Avon first: see what the big deal is by catching a Royal Shakespeare Company play before a trip around town to the Shakespeare attractions; buy a Shakespeare Five House Pass to see Hall's Croft, Mary Arden's Farm, Nash's House and New Place and Shakespeare's Grave alongside Shakespeare’s Birthplace and Anne Hathaway’s Cottage. Many companies offer cruises along the Avon, but to save pennies take a trip on the old chain ferry for 20p, or stay on land and take the mile and a quarter route along the Avon for views of the Royal Shakespeare Theatre, Shakespeare’s burial place Holy Trinity Church and the Memorial Theatre Gardens. Scores of other walks can be had in the Cotswolds, the biggest Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in England, with miles’ worth of footpath and bridleways broken up by small villages and market towns. The Cotswold Way runs 102 miles south from Chipping Campden to Bath and passes many historical houses and churches. After Warwick Castle, families can have a day out at the Ragley Hall Estate to get lost in the 3D maze, or go to Kenilworth Castle with its kids' audio trail covering the history of the castle and the lovelorn Robert Dudley who built it in the 16th century to impress Queen Elizabeth I. Kids will probably also like the gizmos at Stratford’s MAD (Mechanical Art and Design) Museum, Hatton Farm Village at Warwick or driving you nuts around the world’s biggest collection of historic British cars at the Heritage Motor Centre, which has the Land Rover Experience, a nature path and a playground.
