  • 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 is a well-located campsite, ideal for visiting Stratford-upon-Avon with a bus stop just outside. Visitors praise the friendly and helpful staff, and many note the site's cleanliness, particularly the shower and toilet facilities. Pitches are generally described as clean and tidy, though some reviews mention they can be close together and sloping, with a need for levelling blocks. While some facilities are described as dated, they are consistently reported as clean and functional. The site is generally considered peaceful, though occasional reports of noise have been made.

 Paul S. 1 review

Electric gravel touring pitch

Liked Well located for an easy 45 minute roadside walk into Stratford town centre and a riverside/countryside walk back of around an hour. Peaceful setting well away from the road and good welcoming reception.

Disliked Whilst the toilet block was lovely and clean when we arrived it wasn’t cleaned during our 3 day stay and became quite dirty. Equally, the bins weren’t emptied during our stay and were overflowing. The pitches were rather small making manoeuvring caravans stressful!

Recommend to friends Visit again

Electric grass pitch

Liked Nice site, clean showers and toilets. Lots of bins and adequate water points.

Disliked We were pitched on the hill and our large tent sloped down a little. However the view from the hill was lovely. The opening times of the shop was VERY limited.

Electric gravel touring pitch

Liked The dog walking area and transport to Stratford upon Avon.

Disliked Lack of toilets and showers. People walking over the pitches. Children playing late into the evening around the toilet facilities. Sloping pitch. Plus nothing to do with the campsite, but anti social behaviour in Stratford upon Avon!

Electric gravel touring pitch

Liked Friendly welcome
Nice pitches with reliable 10amp electrics
Great showers

Disliked We had pitch 18 which is about 20 metres from the shower block.
All three days here then we had our fellow holidaymakers strolling through the middle of our grass area to get to the facilities. Bit rude when we were eating alfresco.
Suggest anyone who likes their own space steer clear of pitch 18

Electric grass pitch

Liked Nothing!

Disliked Had planned to stay for the weekend. The owner took out money , but we soon discovered after the arrival of police , that the site had travellers in some pitches.
Whilst this is not the fault of the owner, we felt we should have been advised of the situation before taking our money.
We asked for a refund , after deciding to leave early as could not relax . Originally the owner suggested he would consider a refund as he was involved with a court order to remove the travellers. He abruptly advised they had left without further correspondence or a refund

VERY DISSATISFIED with the owners handling of the situation in relation to customer satisfaction

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: We are happy to confirm that our unwelcome visitors were very promptly moved on by the police with the use of an eviction order. Everything was dealt with as quickly as possible and with minimum fuss. It's a shame for those who panicked and left early (hardly anybody fortunately), they missed out on a lovely weekend, we were full to the rafters with the beautiful weather!!

Visit was spoiled.

Electric gravel touring pitch

Liked Friendly welcome.

Disliked When we got back from town a car was blocking the access road to our pitch and would not move. Then we discovered that our hook up cable was missing. So we left to find alternative accommodation. Explains why the site was practically empty when so near to a very popular destination. A shame for the site. I won't say don't use this site but you should be aware which community you might be sharing it with. Another reviewer had a similar experience. Wish I had read that before booking.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Sorry that you had a bad experience - can't work out how this has happened, can't really help, as the review has been left anonymously, lacking courage to put their name!

The perfect place to camp if you want to explore Stratford-upon-Avon.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Pitches were spacious, the place was quiet and peaceful. The staff were extremely welcoming and friendly. Great sunset and night sky too, but I suppose this depends on the wether.

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.
