Located within the three counties showground at the foot of the malvern hills

  • Large and well-located site in the foothills of the Malvern Hills
  • Five minutes' drive from Great Malvern and 25 minutes from Worcester
  • A mile and a half from a golf club and brewery
Roll up, roll up – come and admire this splendid site set against a backdrop of the Malvern Hills… As its name suggests, Three Counties Showground Campsite stretches over three counties: Worcestershire, Gloucestershire and Herefordshire. It's a couple of minutes' drive from the A449, making it as simple as can be to get out to the footpaths and bridleways that link up the many scenic parts of the Malvern Hills. What's happening on site will depend largely on when you come – the showground's a popular venue for food festivals, county fairs, flower shows and the like, so check to see if there's anything that takes your fancy while booking in. (Please note your pitch booking does not give you access to any events – these need to be booked separately at the showground's own website). This family-friendly spot has toilets (including accessible ones) and free wifi so you can stay in touch while away on hol, and four-legged companions can join you on stays here. Barbecues are allowed (off the ground, please, so it can stay in show-worthy shape). There are lots of other food options in the local area, like the supermarkets and pubs in Great Malvern (five minutes’ drive) or the food stalls that spring up when a show’s in town.

What customers say

Spacious, level pitches with stunning Malvern Hills views. Staff, especially Warden George, are consistently praised as friendly and helpful. Facilities are generally clean and adequate, with recent upgrades. Great location for exploring the hills and Showground. Some road noise and basic facilities noted, but peaceful atmosphere is a plus.

Teddy S.

Primitive grass campsite

Liked Very simple, very easy, convenient for the show on Sunday and the show ground. George the warden was very very nice and welcoming.
Added bonus local fish & chip shop delivers to the camp grounds.

Disliked It was very quiet / empty feel they could do a better price per night especially with not booking EHU I feel that would draw more people in.
Washrooms a little outdated could do with modernising , if I was busy I think washrooms could be pushed to service every one.

Jack R.

Primitive grass campsite

Liked Campsite is in a fantastic location. There is a public footpath that takes you into Malvern town centre in about 40 minutes. You also get great views of the hills from the site.
Great access to the showground if this is something you need.
Facilities on site are good

Disliked If the caretaker is not present when you arrive, it can be a bit confusing to gain access to the site as it is locked behind a barrier.
The ground can be hard in places (although perhaps expected during the later months of the year) which means it can make pitching a tent slightly difficult.

Primitive grass campsite

Liked The camp site facilities were clean and easily accessible. The available pitch locations were all great with the site being clean and well maintained.

Disliked We had a few issues checking in, upon arrival to the site we approached the barrier to enter and no one was around to let us in, we ventured out of the car to the near by building and still no one was around, we then went further into the show grounds and spoke to a staff member who informed us that "they weren't sure if camping was on this weekend" so we called the phone number provided and someone came to meet us at the barrier to the campsite.

Liked We had a warm welcome when we arrived on site. Had a pick of where to pitch as it’s October and naturally going to be more quiet. The toilet and shower block was basic but was clean. Close to water and electric. Had WiFi which is always good .I would certainly return

Local attractions

Small fry and grownups looking to splash around are five minutes' drive from a local leisure centre, where there's a wave machine, a full-size 25-metre pool and a waterslide. Other options on your doorstep include the well-regarded 18-hole Worcestershire Golf Club (five minutes' drive) and the Lakehouse Brewery, where you can pick up a box of local ales, book yourself onto a tour or stay for the whole day and brew your own batch. The marvels of the Malvern Hills – the highest bits of which are visible across the site – are also close at hand, with hikes up the Worcestershire Beacon (five minutes' drive then a half-hour walk) and the six-mile lap of the Eastnor Estate (15 minutes) being two popular picks. The architecturally inclined may well wish to make a pilgrimage to gorgeous Tewkesbury Abbey (20 minutes) or Worcester Cathedral (25 minutes) while they're here, or to the Brockhampton Estate (half an hour) for strolls around superb secular structures and 700 acres of woodland.
