  • Spacious family-owned site in the Cotswolds
  • Five minutes' drive from Cirencester and 25 from Cheltenham
  • A 15-minute drive from Bibury and the start of the Thames Path
A getaway full of fab scenery, peaceful wanders and historical streetscapes… and bringing the dog along for the journey? It’s a cinch at Mayfield Park, a family-friendly and family-owned Gloucestershire site five minutes’ drive from the market town of Cirencester and the pretty village of Bibury. This is a top spot to use as a base for explores of the spectacular Cotswolds. Overlooking the Churn valley, the site has easy access to plenty of local walks and scenic villages – just ask in reception for recommendations – and the long-distance Thames Path (so long it’ll take ramblers all the way to London) starts about 15 minutes’ drive away for lengthy treks. Exploring without needing to use feet or pedals is simple round here too: the bus route for Cirencester and Cheltenham passes the site and there’s a stop about 100 feet from the entrance; otherwise pile everyone into the car for the five-minute ride to Cirencester or the 25-minute canter to Cheltenham. Be sure to head back to the site in time to catch the sun setting over the fields, then settle in for an evening of barbecues as canine pals stretch out in the grass. Want a break from cooking? Sniff out one of the local pubs serving local eats to get a taste of Gloucestershire.

What customers say

Great staff, spotless facilities & Cotswolds access. Spacious pitches. Downsides: road noise, pitch slope issues, limited WiFi & need for more loos.

Non-electric grass pitch (sloping)

Liked Very well organised - the camp has everything that you may need (toilets, shower, water, WiFi and more). The space you are given is very generous and you have enough between the others.

Disliked Very loud road noise from the cars all day and night and we could hear it from our tent. Hopefully those in caravans were not so affected. Some of the pitches were on slopes but luckily ours wasn’t.

Non-electric grass pitch (sloping)

Liked Lovely park with very clean facilities all within a good distance. Park was spacious with 2 dogs areas and plenty of dog bins around. The people on the site were friendly and helpful.

Disliked The nearby A road was exceptionally loud, it almost echoed even more through the night and I didn’t find it quietened down at all either (although saying this, I would be happy to return, just with some earbuds). We stayed on the “sloped” pitch and although it does state it’s sloped , I didn’t quite expect so much. It wasn’t too bad except we did have to re organise the tent and bed pattern as I rolled off the bed multiple times whilst sleeping. So just bear in mind when pitching and sorting your tent/bed situation.

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked I liked the hard standing pitch and the water supply close. The showers were clean and warm

Disliked The fact the laundrette was out of order as that’s why I booked the site. Although getting fixed tomorrow. I’m also disappointed the shop was not there as needed essentials and said they had one on the map. Need to remove.

Aleksandra P.

Electric grass pitch (sloping)

Liked Very friendly staff, clean showers/toilets, friendly and safe atmosphere.

Disliked The noisy road nearby makes it very difficult to sleep, but that’s not a huge minus if you have earplugs. What made my sleep truly uncomfortable was the angle of the field. I have been sliding down on my mattress all night long. Maybe it doesn’t make a difference for a bigger tent with a foldable bed, but in a small tent you really feel it.

Non-electric grass pitch (sloping)

Liked Showers and WC were clean, even radio playing in the background,
Receptionists were really nice and explained everything,
Place with free Internet was very much appreciated

Disliked Rocky ground, not the greatest for a tent set up
Not getting to choose where you will stay at (but I also didn't ask if I could change the location)

Local attractions

With Cheltenham racecourse a mere 30 minutes’ drive away, this site is a prime pick for horsey types – but if the gee-gees don’t have the family galloping for joy, there are other four-legged, fleet and feathered options at the Cotswold Wildlife Park and Gardens, also half an hour from base. If the Cotswold Gardens grow enthusiasm for stately houses and grand designs, there’s plenty else hereabouts to entice: Chavenage House, Berkeley Castle, Bowood House, Sudeley Castle, Newark Park and Dyrham Park are all within an hour for old piles, and Westonbirt Arboretum and the gardens at Highgrove (Charlie and Camilla’s royal digs) are definitely worth a turn half an hour away. For more urban explores, start 15 minutes from the site in the scenic village of Bibury to have a poke around the Chedworth Roman Villa, travel on to Bourton-on-the-Water (20 minutes) for Birdland, a maze, a motoring museum and a model village, then take things up a notch in Cirencester, where there are Roman remains, museums, markets, parks and a manor house all waiting for visitors. Keep things soothingly low-key with a spin on the Swindon and Cricklade steam railway, 25 minutes away, or get a bit more active with watersports, paintball, fishing and horse riding at Cotswold Water Park or an adrenaline-fuelled day at the Gloucestershire Rally School, both within 20 minutes.
