  • Small family-run site on an organic cattle farm
  • Adjacent to the River Severn and close to the Severn Way
  • Community-owned village pub within walking distance
Set in a perry pear orchard on an organic cattle farm: that sounds almost poetic. As are the views from the spectacularly scenic little place of West End Farm Campsite, set in the horseshoe bend of the River Severn on the edge of the peaceful Gloucestershire village of Arlingham, and adjacent to the river with easy access to the footpaths of the Severn Way. A rather smashing pub is within easy walking distance too: the Red Lion freehouse (owned by the village, hurrah) with tiptop locally sourced food, real ale and regular events like quiz nights and folk nights – all just the ticket after a peaceful pedal or serene stroll along the river paths or region's quiet flat roads…? West End Farm has a toilet block and chemical disposal. Both barbecues and campfires are allowed on site.

What customers say

A small, quiet, peaceful spot in lovely countryside, perfect for a relaxing break. Spacious, private pitches. Great local pubs and farm cafe nearby. Basic but adequate facilities; some mention upkeep issues, others praise cleanliness. Good value.

Powered grass site

Liked Great location with great pub 6-7 mis walk, pitch size was not the largest but worked for us and enclosed by hedge.

There were farm smells, farm machine noise and flys however its a working farm as stated while booking and adds to the experience, if you don't like this don't book as some of the reviews are unfair.

Disliked Signs stating water pressure was intermittent, in our experience it was water or no water. Unable to wash up on several visits but got there in the end. Understand that the water is shared with the cattle farm however this could be easily resolved. The push button taps didn't help the issues as when water stopped they didn't shut and continued to run once water resumed.

On our first night no hot water however after contacting owners this was resolved.

No lock on the W/C however this was replaced on Sunday morning as we were leaving.

If water was continuous even at low pressure we would be happy to return.

Liked Perfect for families. Small, sweet, safe, clean. Beautiful area and site. Everything you need within reach. Amazing cafe round the corner- Farmers Yard.

Disliked Very limited running water in toilet/shower/sink block. A dribble coming from washing up station and impossible to have a shower. I think functional water in these areas is really important

Liked Beautiful location, lots of countryside and local villages to explore. It’s quiet and a small site, well spaced out.
The farms cafe is fantastic and the local pub is excellent (recommend booking)

Disliked Sadly the toilets, showers and washing up facilities weren’t very clean and water is intermittent. The owners did come and clean straight away when we messaged them. It would benefit from a deep clean and overall refresh.

Power optional gravel caravan site

Liked Very peaceful site. Large level , gravel pitch with plenty of grassed space around. Excellent pub a short distance away.

Disliked Sadly toilets let the site down. One had a broken lock, this one was cleanest. The other two contained a shower. The floors were dirty , partly due to the nature of the tiles. A real shame as otherwise a great site.

Local attractions

West End Farm Campsite's local village is Arlingham, also in the River Severn's horseshoe bend and just off Junction 13 of the M5. The area around the village is fab walking and cycling land, of public footpaths, riverside ambles and flat peaceful roads – all set among the first-class scenery of the England/Wales border area. (Don't know where to start? Ask at the Red Lion for details of their hare, salmon, cattle and skylark wanders.) A couple of miles from the farm is the Gloucester and Sharpness Canal, running between Sharpness and the old docks of Gloucester. It's a pleasant place to while away a few meandering hours, particularly around Patch Bridge, close to the Wildfowl Reserve at Slimbridge which has the world's biggest collection of captive wildfowl. Other local options are Berkeley and the Edward Jenner Museum, where the clever chap first figured out vaccination, and Berkeley Castle, where poor old Edward 2 met his grisly end. Gloucester Cathedral is nine miles from the site; a little further afield are the Norman castle of Goodrich and the Tudor National Trust-managed house of Newark Park.
