What customers say
This is a compact, friendly campsite praised for its excellent Indian food at the on-site pub. Pitches are generally well-sized and the location is ideal for walking the Malvern Hills. Facilities are basic but functional, with 24-hour access to toilets and showers, though some guests noted a need for updating and better maintenance. Staff are consistently described as welcoming and helpful. The site is noted for being quiet and good value for short stays, though some found it expensive for longer visits.

Relaxing, peaceful site with friendly staff.
Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked The pitch was hardstanding with electric in a little corner of it's own on the site. Surrounded by trees and plenty big enough for our campervan. Peaceful and relaxing with the added bonus of a friendly,relaxed pub.
Disliked We could not find anything to dislike.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Great Pitch next to Pub with AMAZING curry.
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Easy to find location once I went in to the pub to 'check in'. Had good facilities in the pub which can be accessed 24/7. Nice flat pitch next to hedgerow and some trees so good shelter. The pub owners were so lovely and the food is AMAZING! Highly recommend forgetting a dinner ingredient so you have to dine in the pub like I did! Dog friendly, safe and secure.
Disliked The pitch is close to a road which meant it was not as peaceful, but thankfully there is not much traffic at night so my sleep was not affected! Also the sight does need the hedges trimmed and litter picked up to make it a bit tidier.

Expensive for a small site but if you have your own facilities it’s ok
Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked Access to pub and village for steam rally with nice surroundings and views.
Disliked Needs updating, chemical loo and wash area are old and very unhygienic , covered by brambles. Expensive for a small site, only one shower working and loos messy which were located in the pub. Water on site hidden by an old tree and Han standing was uneven. No WIFI on site on in pub.

Would happily stay again for wellend steam fair
Electric grass tent pitch
Liked Small quiet pitch site for all types. Loos and shower available (push button normal electric shower)
Stayied here as close to wellend steam fair to bike in each day. Worked well.
Everyone was friendly.
Disliked Think one shower was out of order, and the outside sink area could be improved.
Cold tap didn't work.
Also struggled to locate pitch, new pitch board, would be good. As looked at old pictures on pitch up website.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked The pub, the landlord and food was brilliant! Keep it up 🍺
We used it somewhere to sleep and shower in our caravan as we was at the rally all weekend.
Disliked Dated!! The whole site needs a lot TLC. It’s a shame that it’s been left and no care what so ever!
It’s in unfair on landlord who doesn’t know what’s going on he has nothing todo with the site.
Trees need cutting back drastically we couldn’t even fit on the hard standing pitch as trees was overhanging! The main entrance to site off car park is so overgrown too. The grass hasn’t been cut in months! Good job we dint have no rain as think all the electric would have tripped! See photo. If can’t find your hook up most likely it’s in the overgrowth. Same as the fresh water tap!!
Not safe at all. There has been no one on site to check you in, would be good idea to put few signs up telling you where pitches our where toilets, clean water, showers etc.
