  • Dog-friendly site 10 minutes’ walk from Upton upon Severn
  • A five-minute drive from the edge of the Malvern Hills
  • Riverside land with fishing access; restaurants and marina in the town
Rows of black and white houses, a stunning riverside and pubs to please fond-of-food punters: that’s a small snapshot of Upton upon Severn, a riverside town just 10 minutes’ walk away from The Old Allotments. The snapshot for this lovely site is just as pleasing: dog-friendly pitches, riverside land where guests can fish and facilities which include toilets and showers, an Elsan point and a washing-up sink. With such a handy location so close to the town, riverside walks or cruising down the river on a hire boat could soon be on the horizon. Upton upon Severn has a great marina with a bar, restaurant and boat hire. There are supermarkets five minutes’ walk away from the site and pubs, eateries, takeaways, hairdressers and charity or gift shops further on. There’s also a tourist information shop in the town advertising the town’s events and festivals. This is a great place to visit the Malvern Hills too; the site is just five minutes’ drive away from the edge of the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and 10 minutes’ drive away from the Three Counties Showground.

Electric grass and earth touring pitch

Liked: The Old Allotments has to be one of our favourite campsites. It’s never over crowded. There’s plenty of room between pitches. Apple trees everywhere. Our dogs kept trying to eat them. (Dogs made welcome) There’s a key coded barrier making it a safe, secure site. It is located on a busy road, but honestly, unless you pitch by the toilet/shower block, there’s no traffic noise. Speaking of toilets and showers, they are basic but clean and perfectly adequate. Showers lovely and hot. There are lovely dog walks through the back of the site with stunning views of the River Severn. Beautiful. The surrounding villages of Upton and Great Malvern are lovely and there are plenty of pubs close by. We had a lovely meal in The Plough and Harrow. Gorgeous pub. This is our second visit, and we’ll certainly be back for more.

Disliked: Nothing at all to dislike. Except having to leave….

Electric grass and earth touring pitch

Liked: Facilities are really clean and finished to a high standard - always nice when the shower doesn’t just dribble bleakly!! We actually stayed during a torrential downpour - fortunately there’s a gravel track running throughout the camp field so you’re able to get out despite very soggy conditions. The pitches are large, well resourced and the sections are separated by hedges for privacy. There’s a Morrisons ten minute walk from the site for essentials, and some lovely countryside walks. We loved it.

Disliked: Nothing.
