  • Small, friendly campsite on a family-run Gloucestershire farm
  • A 15-minute drive to Gloucester; 20 minutes to Cheltenham
  • Established site since 1946; easy access from the M5
There’s been a campsite at Gables Farm Touring and Camping since way back in 1946… and with a history like that, you can be sure the team here have learnt a thing or two along the way about what makes a good place to stay. The essence of this small, family-run Gloucestershire site is to keep things simple but well done. Bathroom facilities are bright, clean and spacious, with toilets and showers, and there’s also a washing-up area and chemical disposal point for guests to use. And because no good day ever started without a decent breakfast, you can also pick up fresh free-range eggs on site too. Of course, it helps that this is a rather fine location too: in the Severn Vale about 15 minutes’ drive from the centre of Gloucester, and close to the western edge of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The site is just off the A38 and with easy access from the M5 (both northbound and southbound), so getting out and about should be straightforward. Eats and drinks should be in good supply around here, too – if you don’t fancy the trip to Gloucester there are pubs in Whitminster (two minutes’ drive) and Frampton on Severn (10 minutes), or you could venture to the lovely town of Stroud (15 minutes).

What customers say

This well-kept, secure campground gets rave reviews for its spotless, modern washrooms. Guests love the friendly staff, roomy sites, and handy M5 access. While some note traffic noise from the nearby highway, most find it a non-issue. A top pick for quick stops or longer getaways.

Liked Friendly hosts, located just off the motorway so great for a stopover. Facilities excellent and well maintained.

Disliked Slightly small pitches and we had the pitch with the water right in the middle so everyone came through our pitch to fill up so there’s no privacy and the constant coming and going sent one of our dogs wild.

Liked Nice showers & toilet block - clean and quiet. Nice pitch too - easy to connect to electrics. Staff are helpful, and communication is good.

Disliked There is a constant hum from the M5 which is 2-300 yards away - not really intrisive.

Liked Lovely site. A great stop over if you want to visit Gloucester. Great facilities and very clean. Everyone really friendly.

Disliked We were in a small pitch near storage caravans but there was a lovely field. We were only one night so understand why we were pitched there. The field site was so much nicer.

Local attractions

Keen to experience a bit more of that farming life? Take the kids to Cattle Country Farm Park (15 minutes’ drive) for hands-on activities with the lambs, goats, pigs and rabbits plus all sorts of other fun things including miniature golf, a splash pool, a maize maze and a couple of play barns. Meanwhile, if you prefer open spaces and wildlife, head to WWT Slimbridge Wetland Centre (15 minutes) to see what kind of birds you can spot. Around these parts are also several smart rural estates – if you’ve got an eye for a fancy historic house, aim for 12th-century Berkeley Castle or the 19th-century Gothic splendour of Woodchester Mansion (both 20 minutes). Green-fingered guests may instead prefer a wander along the paths of Painswick Rococo Garden (20 minutes). Gloucester (15 minutes) and Cheltenham (20 minutes) are both worth a visit while you’re in the area – and in between the two is the Jet Age Museum (20 minutes), with a fab collection of vintage planes and other aviation memorabilia.
