  • Adults-only site surrounded by Worcestershire countryside
  • Droitwich Spa 20 minutes’ drive; Worcester 25 minutes
  • Well-behaved dogs welcome; just over a mile from the nearest pub
Located halfway between Worcester and Redditch (25 minutes’ drive to either), Church Meadow Campsite is a small, peaceful site surrounded by arable fields and splendid Worcestershire countryside. ‘Peaceful’ is very much the operative word here – not only because this rural spot is blissfully quiet, with just a soundtrack of wildlife and the occasional neigh from the horses that live nearby, but also because Church Meadow caters exclusively to adults. (Though well-behaved dogs are also welcome.) Well-maintained facilities on site include toilets and showers. The site is in the sleepy village of Dormston, which is home to a pretty, historic church. A carp fishing lake and a traditional pub serving food (including a full English breakfast) are both just over a mile away (a five-minute drive or a 25-minute walk), while other amenities, including spots to pick up groceries, are on hand in nearby Inkberrow (five minutes). This part of the country isn’t short on stunning scenery, whether you fancy jaunts to National Trust properties like Hanbury Hall (15 minutes), the historic town of Droitwich Spa (20 minutes) or heritage villages like Broadway (30 minutes), at the northern end of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Church Meadow is also easy to reach, being just a few miles from the M5.

Power optional cement/asphalt and grass campsite

Liked: Peace and quiet, dark skies. Very basic site (this is good) with lots of footpaths in the area.

Disliked: The road through the site is a bit too narrow meaning that to get onto our pitch we had no choice but to drive across the grass at the corner of the pitch (6m long motorhome). Due to all the recent rain, the grass was very muddy and we almost got stuck.

Power optional cement/asphalt and grass campsite

Liked: Beautiful peaceful position. One of the quietest and most peaceful sites we've ever been to. Small site and adult only. Dog friendly and within walking distance of a pub with lots of other wonderful food places a short drive away. Lots of seasonal rain meant grass was quite muddy but gravel pitches and just take wellies or walking boots

Disliked: Nothing

Power optional cement/asphalt and grass campsite

Liked: Nothing

Disliked: The camp site. On arrival the main gate was locked so we rang the contact number to be told that the site was closed between October and March! Funny how did we manage to make a booking then? After checking the bookings the owner gave us the code to the lock and we went through the gate. The place looked destitute. There was not a sole around and the few caravans that were there looked almost abandoned. The ‘hard standing/gravel pitches’ were mere pea shingle patches thrown onto boggy muddy grass. The pitches didn’t appear wide enough for the caravan let alone anywhere to safely park the car. We always take our dog with us and it would have been a nightmare taking him for his exercise in the bog pit and to keep him clean. There were 6 pitches then a fenced off area with more pitches, even though I use the term pitches very loosely. I looked at my husband, he looked at me and almost simultaneously said ‘no, not staying here’. The ground was so sodden we were concerned that we would sink into it and not be able to get out. We’d paid £50 for this privilege and decided it really wasn’t worth it. We’ve stayed in much much better camp sites for less money. The random large animal figures dotted around were hideous and the whole site needs a good revamp. How they are allowed to charge people to risk their caravans and cars safely there is questionable. They’re also a certified camping and caravan site (or so their board says) but I’m confused as to how they would achieve this accolade. I’m sure during the summer months it might be an ‘ok’ site but to advertise hard standing/gravel pitches is a joke. We didn’t even get out the car, mainly because the ground was so muddy, we quickly booked onto another site and left.

Local attractions

At the White Cottage Garden (five minutes’ drive) every season bring a riot of colour – from spring daffodils and summer peonies, to autumn dahlias and red maple trees. Morton Hall Gardens (10 minutes) include an orchard and a rockery; the grounds are also known for their expansive views over the Vale of Evesham. The pretty historic town of Droitwich Spa (20 minutes) has an open-air lido for summer swims, plus boat trips along the Birmingham Worcester Canal. The Heritage Trail walk starts from the Droitwich Heritage & Information Centre, which houses a museum on the town’s brine streams and salt production. Facing the River Severn, the medieval cathedral in Worcester has a spectacular Gothic vaulted ceiling. Not far from here, the Museum of Royal Worcester illustrates the history of the renowned local porcelain, while paintings (including a Canaletto) and displays about the Worcestershire Regiment fill the Worcester City Art Gallery and Museum.
