Cheltenham Festival is one of the most acclaimed events on the UK’s National Hunt racing calendar – which explains why more than 250,000 people attend each year. The four-day affair is where you’ll find some of the world’s most esteemed horses and jockeys competing across 28 races. And the vibrant atmosphere at the on-site bars and restaurants doesn’t hurt, either.
Hold your horses before booking a hotel or B&B in town – there are plenty of countryside campsites near Cheltenham Festival. After watching the races, return to a relaxed park in a rural Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty like the nearby Cotswolds or Malvern Hills.
Campsites near Cheltenham Festival range from luxurious glamping parks to laidback options. If it’s the latter you’re after, look out for pitches on animal-filled farms, right next to centuries-old inns or by meandering rivers.
