  • Family-run pub site between Worcestershire and Herefordshire
  • Tewkesbury and Upton-upon-Severn both within five miles
  • Locally-produced food served Tuesday to Saturday; carvery on Sunday
Once you’re all pitched up, you can head straight in for a pint or a wine – this park is rather handily tagged onto a cosy pub. The Hunters Inn, on the edge of Longdon village, is a handy four miles from the historic town of Tewkesbury around half an hour’s drive from Cheltenham, and also within easy reach of several of the area’s most famed historic attractions, including Tewkesbury Abbey, Gloucester Cathedral and Hartlebury Castle. The Malvern Hills are also a cinch to get to for walks and big bike rides, and the water meadow at Severn Ham, just outside Tewkesbury, is smashing for a bit of wildlife spotting and birdwatching. When you’re done with days of Worcestershire sightseeing, return back to base for a barbecue. However, if you’d rather have someone else do the cooking, then the pub serves some pretty great locally sourced food instead. There’s a nice sprinkling of entertainment here too: if you’re there for the pub’s monthly quiz, you can exercise some brain cells for a crack at winning the Hunters’ pub quiz crown.

Liked: I will say the pub was great food and staff.

Disliked: Sadly it was disappointing. Washrooms were freezing, ripped through our purchased £5 of electric in about 11 hours, wifi was unusable so we decided to sacrifice our non refundable second night.

Power optional concrete and grass caravan site

Liked: Good place. -5 degrees overnight so didn't get out much and the pub was closed for holidays.
BUT, most importantly, the landlord is from California (originally) so I sincerely hope all his relatives and friends are safe from the fires.

Power optional concrete and grass caravan site

Liked: The pitches are large, and our hardstanding pitch had grass behind and to the side. The site is also quiet, and the gates are kept locked, giving good security.

Disliked: The toilets, showers, wash up, and grey waste were all below par. Indeed, in the 4 nights we stayed, they weren't cleaned as far as I could tell, and the shower was definitely not cleaned. Neither was there any provision for self-cleaning - not even a mop and bucket. The elsan point is not really tucked away or protected from the other facilities and play area, and there was no hose to aid rinsing.
The location isn't great, and we didn't find the pub particularly lively or appealing.

Liked: Hardstanding and price. Next to pub restaurant.

Disliked: Mud but weather has been horrendous. Was not told the distance from the electric hook up to the pitch, luckily we had two leads in the caravan. We were the only caravan in there and was put the farthest away!!

Local attractions

Over in Tewkesbury, begin with an amble alongside the River Severn or opt for a boat trip along the Avon; then head to the town’s most famed landmark, the 900-year-old Tewkesbury Abbey, and have yourself a heritage wander around its walking trails. The Pepperpot in Upton is also a topping option as an historic highlight, as are Hartlebury Castle and the cathedrals at Worcester and Gloucester, all within easy driving distance. The area plays host to lots of festivals and events throughout the year too; if you’re in the area in July, make sure you check out Tewkesbury’s famed Medieval Festival, where thousands from all over get together for Europe’s biggest annual medieval reenactment: let the merriment commence and the mead flow forth. Elsewhere, this top Worcestershire spot is a most handy locale for outdoorsy and active adventures: there’s a golf course in Tewkesbury and several horse riding schools are in the area too, plus walking and cycling are popular around the Malvern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, a short drive away. Severn Ham is also a splendid place for a walk and a bit of wildlife watching: be sure to take a pair of binoculars or even just your camera phone, because you’ll likely want to snap all the critters and birdlife you’ll find around this wild water meadow.
