  • Small family-run site on an organic cattle farm
  • Adjacent to the River Severn and close to the Severn Way
  • Community-owned village pub within walking distance
Set in a perry pear orchard on an organic cattle farm: that sounds almost poetic. As are the views from the spectacularly scenic little place of West End Farm Campsite, set in the horseshoe bend of the River Severn on the edge of the peaceful Gloucestershire village of Arlingham, and adjacent to the river with easy access to the footpaths of the Severn Way. A rather smashing pub is within easy walking distance too: the Red Lion freehouse (owned by the village, hurrah) with tiptop locally sourced food, real ale and regular events like quiz nights and folk nights – all just the ticket after a peaceful pedal or serene stroll along the river paths or region's quiet flat roads…? West End Farm has a toilet block and chemical disposal. Both barbecues and campfires are allowed on site.

What customers say

Peaceful rural site with spacious, private pitches. Great for River Severn walks, with a village pub and on-site cafe nearby. Facilities are clean, though some mention water pressure/cleanliness issues. Easy self-check-in, good value.

Primitive grass campsite

Liked The location. The pitch sizes. The facilities. Everything you need for a tent stay. I’ve seen reviews regarding the smell at times, you’re on a farm, expect it. You can hear, see and smell animals… my kids love it. I’ve seen reviews about the facilities being dirty… they aren’t but expect grass on the floor. Very hard to keep on top of when campers are walking through a field to get to them. Needed an electric hookup extension, Tom provided it no questions asked. There’s a small park with a large sand bit down the road. A lovely farm cafe. Further on there’s a pub that serves great food. Just two roads away there’s a great river walk, with a new pub/garden about to open. Internet signal is poor for me here but we don’t mind that, we pre-download programmes for night time.

Local attractions

West End Farm Campsite's local village is Arlingham, also in the River Severn's horseshoe bend and just off Junction 13 of the M5. The area around the village is fab walking and cycling land, of public footpaths, riverside ambles and flat peaceful roads – all set among the first-class scenery of the England/Wales border area. (Don't know where to start? Ask at the Red Lion for details of their hare, salmon, cattle and skylark wanders.) A couple of miles from the farm is the Gloucester and Sharpness Canal, running between Sharpness and the old docks of Gloucester. It's a pleasant place to while away a few meandering hours, particularly around Patch Bridge, close to the Wildfowl Reserve at Slimbridge which has the world's biggest collection of captive wildfowl. Other local options are Berkeley and the Edward Jenner Museum, where the clever chap first figured out vaccination, and Berkeley Castle, where poor old Edward 2 met his grisly end. Gloucester Cathedral is nine miles from the site; a little further afield are the Norman castle of Goodrich and the Tudor National Trust-managed house of Newark Park.
