Briarfields Touring Park

Liked This was my first time staying in one of the pods, and I absolutely loved it! It was a birthday gift to myself, and it was money very well spent.

The pod was cosy and comfortable, and I really enjoyed the peaceful walking routes around the park, as well as the easy stroll to the nearby retail park. It was the perfect place to relax and unwind.

I remembered Briarfields being really well kept from previous visits, and I'm happy to say the standards haven't dropped at all. I'll definitely be returning whenever life gets a bit hectic and I need to de-stress or simply treat myself again. Highly recommended!

Michael on reception a very warm, friendly chap.

Disliked Not being able to park car next to pod.

From the manager: Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Elizabeth.

We're absolutely delighted that you chose to celebrate your birthday with us, what a lovely gift to yourself! It means so much to hear that your first stay in one of our glamping pods was such a success and that you found it cosy, comfortable and the perfect place to relax and unwind.

It's especially lovely to know that Briarfields lived up to your memories from previous visits and that you feel our standards are as high as ever. We work incredibly hard to keep the park looking its best, so your kind comments are truly appreciated.

Thank you also for your lovely words about Michael. We'll be sure to pass them on, he'll be delighted to know his warm welcome helped make your stay even more enjoyable.

We appreciate your feedback about parking next to the pod. Unfortunately, the layout of the pod area doesn't allow for parking immediately beside them, but we're grateful you mentioned it and will always consider guest feedback as we continue to improve the park.

Thank you again for your recommendation and for sharing your birthday getaway with us. We look forward to welcoming you back whenever you need another chance to relax, recharge and treat yourself!

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to leave your review, Lindsay.

We're pleased to hear you enjoyed our location, facilities and the overall presentation of the park, and we're delighted that you'd choose to stay with us again.

We're sorry to hear that some aspects of your stay didn't quite meet your expectations. Our pitch sizes do vary across the park, with some offering more space than others, and we're always happy to recommend a larger pitch where availability allows if guests let us know their preferences when booking.

We're also sorry that you felt the hedges didn't provide enough privacy. The recent spell of exceptionally hot and dry weather has unfortunately taken its toll on some of our younger hedges despite our best efforts to keep them healthy, but we're continuing to nurture and replace them where needed so they'll continue to mature and provide even more privacy in the future.

Thank you too for your comments regarding the traffic and light aircraft noise. Our convenient location close to Cheltenham, Gloucester and the M5 does mean there can be some background noise during the day, but many guests find the easy access to local attractions and excellent transport links make it a worthwhile trade-off.

We really appreciate your balanced feedback and hope we'll have the opportunity to welcome you back to Briarfields again soon.

Liked Everything was great,Had everything we wanted just for a stop off mid journey.
Shame no food or drinks available, but we know it’s coming hopefully?

From the manager: Thank you so much for your lovely review, Dennis.

We're delighted to hear Briarfields had everything you needed for a comfortable stopover during your journey and that you enjoyed your stay with us.

Thank you also for mentioning the food and drink facilities. Fingers and toes crossed, we're hoping to open our new Orchard Bar & Kitchen later next month or in early September, and we can't wait to offer our guests somewhere to relax with a drink and a bite to eat after a day of travelling or exploring the area.

Thank you for your recommendation and for taking the time to leave your feedback. We hope to welcome you back to Briarfields again very soon.

Liked Very clean, well presented site with plenty of space around caravans /motorhomes.
Very clean and modern facilities, great showers. Great stop off for us travelling from Scarborough to Southampton. Great places to visit within a hours drive, including Didly Squat lol.
Would definately recommend if you're venturing around the Cotswolds.

Liked Great private pitches surrounded by hedging, well maintained grounds and spotlessly clean toilets and showers (loved having the radio played in there!) Perfect location for 1 night stay if travelling North or South along M5 (about a mile from M5 jn11) or multiple nights to explore Cheltenham, Gloucester and the beautiful Cotswolds with great public transport outside the front gate.
This was our 1st time staying at Briarfields, will definitely be returning.

Disliked Would have been handy to have had a 'convenience' store on site (though ASDA is only a 10min walk away) and possibly a bar to enjoy a drink.with fellow campers... but these are only Minor issues and not really 'Dislikes'

From the manager: Thank you so much for your fantastic review Chris.

We're also pleased our location worked so well for you, whether as a convenient stop just off the M5 or as a base for exploring Cheltenham, Gloucester and the beautiful Cotswolds using the excellent public transport right outside the park.

Thank you too for your suggestions. Fingers and toes crossed, we're hoping to open our new Orchard Bar & Kitchen later next month/early September, which we're sure will be a welcome addition for guests looking to relax with a drink or a bite to eat. After that, our next project is to create a small convenience shop in reception, so watch this space!

It was lovely to read that you're already planning a return visit with relatives. Thank you again for your recommendation and your kind words.
