  • Small village shop and pub within a mile
  • Play area, football, treehouse, games room and stone-baked pizzas
It might be a small site, but you'll find quite the heap to do for big folks and kids at and around Haywood Farm Caravan and Camping Park near Ross-on-Wye. First up there's the fishing within a couple of miles… And then there's the playground on site, in a scenic and spacious setting (check out the site pics) which also comes with a small pond, a five-a-side football pitch, a games room, indoor table tennis and – huzzah – a treehouse. Woodland walks are steps away from the site, as Haywood is close to Queens Wood on the edge of the Forest of Dean; and canoeing, kayaking, fishing, golf, horse riding, an indoor pool, mountain biking and tennis are all available in the surrounding countryside. Haywood is a family-run site a short drive from the M50, between Newent and Ross-on-Wye, and with a decent range of guest amenities including showers, a toilet block, disabled facilities, a washing-up area, chemical disposal and recycling. Ice pack freezing is also available for guests. Pubs, restaurants, shops and public transport are 10 minutes' walk away.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked: Our first camping adventure as a family with a 1 year old and a 3 year old. The site is really good had everything we needed. Friendly staff. Shop on site had the essentials. They also do pizzas although we didn't try them they were very popular. Showers were good. Kids enjoyed the Park area and the football pitch.

Powered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked: Absolutely loved our stay here, staff were very helpful and friendly, the site was in a good location and was one of the cleanest sites with have been to. The kids absolutely loved the park and games room. Pitches were a fair size. The shop was well stocked and a fair prize, the pizzas were spot on. We will definitely be going back.

Disliked: Only downside was that the pitches were quite close together, if you are going as a group this would be good benefit.

Powered concrete slab caravan site

Liked: Excellent facilities and amenities, all very clean and in perfect condition. The staff went above and beyond helpful and were always ready to answer questions or make my stay more comfortable. On top of all this, is the spacious and well laid out site overall and pitches in particular. Additionally the site is a five minute walk from Dymock Woods which is part of the Forest of Dean. If you want peace and quiet and the opportunity to wander aimlessly in stunning woodland then this is the site for you.

Disliked: Nothing!

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to send us a review, we really appreciate any feedback. We love the woods too!

Local attractions

Woodland walks are seconds from the farm and four golf courses are within a three-mile radius. Sports centres and swimming pools are a short drive away. The Malvern Hills and the Brecon Beacons are probably the most visited destinations around this part of the England/Wales border, but plenty of other popular picks are around, like canoeing on the River Wye, wandering around the town of Ross-on-Wye, or fishing on the local lakes. Pottering around the Forest of Dean is another decent day out: if you're going forestwards, take time to stop off at the ancient woodland site of Puzzlewood and then the Clearwell Caves, mined for thousands of years to extract iron ore and now set up as a mining museum. (It should also be pointed out, just because, that some Doctor Who episodes were filmed here.) Within driving distance, both Monmouth and Malvern towns are 20 minutes away, and the cities of Hereford and Gloucester within 25. For a properly rural day out, make haste for Newbridge Farm Park (15 minutes' drive) or Raglan Farm Park (40 minutes).
