Pepper pot cafe bar

  • Green and spacious park in Gloucestershire
  • Seven miles to Sharpness Canal and Slimbridge Wildfowl Trust
  • On-site café-bar serving breakfast, coffee and lunch
Greenery and space are on the menu at The Pepper Pot Caravan Park near Dursley in Gloucestershire, which is kept tiptop by its on-site and friendly wardens, who live in and are on hand for any advice or help needed by Pepper Potters during their stay. Facilities are well-maintained and in a purpose-built shower and loo block; an indoor washing-up area and a coin-operated washing machine are also on site. But one of the greatest bits about The Pepper Pot Caravan Park? The Pepper Pot Café Bar, a place to get your mitts on traditional breakfasts, fresh coffee, light lunches and children's meals every morning and afternoon. This is a very decent spot to use as a base for exploring Gloucestershire and its surrounds, particularly for those who like their wildlife or historic homes. Two golf clubs are within a quick drive, as is Berkeley Castle (10 minutes' drive away) and the Cattle Country Farm Park (five minutes' drive).

What customers say

A friendly, spotless site with helpful staff (Nikki gets a shout-out!). Spacious pitches with water. The Pepper Pot pub is a bonus. M5/railway noise is noted but usually manageable. Best for caravans/motorhomes.

Liked Nice site, liked the pitches.
Shower block and toilets were clean, except for lazy punters who couldn’t use the bin properly.
Pitches were of adequate size, and had own water supply.

Disliked There was a bit of road noise as close to motorway.
A little bit of hedge trimming and tidying would make a vast improvement.

Liked Pitches were a nice size

Disliked Dog poo around the front of our pitch where people walked.
Dirty toilets
.
Google and pitch up directions took us to a service road on the services, rang the site and the lady was very unhelpful and challenged of we were reading Google maps properly!
Very unhelpful and frankly rude staff.
Left a day early due to what was mentioned.

Liked Small site easily accessed from the M5. Good sized pitch. Clean showers and toilets. Had all the facilities we needed.

Disliked Showers had no temperature control and given the weather was very hot I'd have preferred a cooler shower.
Our pitch was next to the entrance and the cctv beeps! We thought it was one of our alarms and took out all the batteries. Very annoying.

Liked The whole campsite was lovely.

Disliked Only problem was that the pub is now a "Bistro Cafe" and closes at 5pm - thus no evening meals.
