  • 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 in lovely countryside with River Severn walks. Praised for quiet atmosphere, spacious level pitches, and clean facilities. Nearby pub & farm cafe popular. Some found facilities basic, noted minor cleanliness/noise issues (farm/wildlife), but overall positive with many returning.

Primitive grass campsite

Liked Nice small site nice walks and pub nearby

Disliked Came here last year as a so quiet. This time noise kids at 6am running about and dogs barking. Our dog was quiet as always . Toilets and showers were not very clean and no sigh of being cleaned over weekend . Washing up area pours over your feet when you empty plug . Would be a shame if the camp site gets neglected over the coffee shop

Primitive grass campsite

Liked Area and the site excellent location and cuisine at the Red Lion pub fantastic Also quiet with nature all around

Disliked Campsite facilities basic which is ok but not when they are not clean . Bins full. One shower room for male one for female and a shared toilet with no paper . More campers came in the night when we stayed glad we only stayed one night as would have waited some time to use facilities . When offering. Toilets and showers would expect these to be cleaned daily which theses obviously were not looked like hadn’t been cleaned for sometime !

Pass the church on your right and West End Farm is on the right in about 250 yards.

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.
