  • Dog-friendly site 10 minutes’ walk from riverside Upton upon Severn
  • Malvern Hills five minutes’ drive, and Tewkesbury 15 minutes
  • Fishing on site; restaurants and marina nearby in Upton
Black-and-white houses, a stunning riverside, a packed schedule of festivals and pubs to please fond-of-food punters: that’s a snapshot of Upton upon Severn, a waterside town 10 minutes’ walk away from The Old Allotments in Worcestershire. The USPs for this low-key site are just as pleasing: dog-friendly pitches, fishing on the banks of the Severn and facilities that include toilets and showers, an Elsan point and a washing-up sink. With such a handy location so close to the town, riverside walks or cruising down the river on a hire boat could soon be on the horizon – Upton upon Severn has a busy marina with a bar, restaurant and boat hire. There are supermarkets five minutes’ walk from the site as well as pubs, eateries and takeaways a little further away. Regular events take place at the Three Counties Showground (10 minutes’ drive), and The Old Allotments is also a handy base for exploring the natural beauty of Malvern Hills National Landscape.

What customers say

Great, well-kept campsite with spacious, level grass sites. Easy walk to Upton-upon-Severn's pubs & shops. Basic but clean facilities with good hot showers. Some road noise, but mostly okay. Secure entry is a plus. Many keen to return.

Liked Loved this relaxed campsite, rustic clean toilets and hot showers.

Great location with easy walk to the town and marina.

Yes it is close to a road.....we actually pitched at the front of the campsite and the road noise didn't bother us. There were no cars in the evening.

Liked Lovely little campsite by the River Severn, short walk into Upton with great pubs.
Electric point and drinking water tap together which is great.
Individual shower units and separate toilets clean and tidy. Would definitely be coming back to this site.
We even managed to walk the whole of the Malvern hills!
Dog loved it as well 😊

Powered grass and earth caravan site

Liked Our 2nd visit to this site, which is in a convenient location for the town. It’s just a 5 minute walk to the independent Warners supermarket, which has an excellent selection of locally sourced goods. Just a bit further on in to the town, which has a great selection of places to eat and drink.
Site secure with gated entry. Pitches mostly flat with plenty of water taps. Wardens friendly and facilities were kept very clean during our stay.

Disliked Some road noise but fairly quiet at night.

Local attractions

Fancy a trip out? Before you set off, check in with the tourist office in Upton upon Severn, as the town has regular summer music festivals and events. You may also like to hire a barge to float down the River Severn, or bone up on local history at the town’s Tudor House Museum or Pepperpot Heritage Centre. As well as a number of half-timbered traditional pubs, Tewkesbury (15 minutes’ drive) is known for its splendid abbey with ornate stained-glass windows and tombs from the War of the Roses. There’s a medieval library in the Norman/Gothic cathedral at Worcester (half an hour), along with fine china exhibits at the Museum of Royal Worcester and local history displays in the City Art Gallery and Museum. Of course, the edge of the Malvern Hills National Landscape is only five minutes’ drive away for alfresco adventures on foot or by bike. You can scramble up to the Iron Age’s British Camp Hill Fort (15 minutes) for staggering views over Herefordshire and Worcestershire, or cycle the signposted network of bike trails across the region.
