What customers say

Peaceful, clean spot for Cotswolds trips. Staff are friendly & attentive; facilities spotless. Cosy, comfy accommodation with nice extras. Some found it pricey for basics & noted shared bathroom quirks, but most loved it & will return.

No 5 camping pod

Liked Cabin was clean, BBQ from night before wasn't emptied or cleaned.
Location was really quiet, exactly what we wanted.
Good supply of cups, tea and coffee in the cabin.
Toilets clean and stocked up.

Disliked Bit confusing where to go, as site is a residential and pods aren't signposted.
Family of 4 hogging both bathrooms on Saturday and Sunday and using firepit area until late with music on phone.
So mainly others spoiling the site for you.
Beds in the cabin for the price felt a bit off.

Rachel J.

The Shire House microlodge

Liked Lovely surroundings to walk . Nice and clean accommodation. Friendly staff

Disliked Did not ike the rubber topped mattress . Very close to the road which is busy . Very awkward especially first thing when we woke up if you need the toilet and the two rooms are being used for showering . There needs to be separate toilets. 2 wet rooms for the 9 that can stay there is not enough . Darker blinds would also be nice as the ones there are sea through when the sun comes up .

Local attractions

Fancy getting out into the great outdoors? Cyclists and walkers can head for the Cotswold Way (five minutes’ walk), follow the sculpture trails in the Forest of Dean and ramble through soft-stone Cotswolds villages like Broadway (both 35 minutes’ drive) or Bourton-on-the-Water (20 minutes). The kids will likely love you forever if you take them to Cotswold Farm Park (20 minutes) to cuddle donkeys and see rare-breed sheep as featured on TV, while you can chuff along a narrow-gauge mini-railway to spot rhinos and giraffes at Cotswold Wildlife Park and Gardens (half an hour). As well as all the rural goings-on, there are several interesting towns and cities to discover. The glampsite is midway between Gloucester, with its historic docks on the River Severn, and Regency-style Cheltenham (both 15 minutes), where you can cruise indie shops for cool clothes or book tickets for events at the year-round roster of literary and arts festivals. There’s some serious shopping to do at Designer Outlet Swindon (35 minutes) too, and the Roman ruins and Thermae Spa make Bath (an hour) a fascinating city in which to pass the day.
