Liked: Location was lovely and close to town and not far from puzzlewood too. Back to basics camping. Nice big field, horse and sheep neighbours. Friendly host who greeted us upon arrival. Secure toilet cubicles. Washing up area and drinking water tap all in the same location on the site so easy to get everything done.
Disliked: Shower space was tight but still manageable.

Liked: Peaceful spot with good mix of different ages/group types. The site is right off the road so we were really pleasantly surprised to find how quiet it was once you’re all set up. Quick to walk into Coleford and you’ll find The doghouse - really fantastic little micropub!
Disliked: Being the August bank holiday weekend the campsite was pretty much full and so there was a bit of a queue for showers/toilets during “peak hours” but nothing too bad!
