Pepper pot cafe bar

  • Green and spacious park in Gloucestershire
  • Seven miles to Sharpness Canal and Slimbridge Wildfowl Trust
  • On-site café-bar serving breakfast, coffee and lunch
Greenery and space are on the menu at The Pepper Pot Caravan Park near Dursley in Gloucestershire, which is kept tiptop by its on-site and friendly wardens, who live in and are on hand for any advice or help needed by Pepper Potters during their stay. Facilities are well-maintained and in a purpose-built shower and loo block; an indoor washing-up area and a coin-operated washing machine are also on site. But one of the greatest bits about The Pepper Pot Caravan Park? The Pepper Pot Café Bar, a place to get your mitts on traditional breakfasts, fresh coffee, light lunches and children's meals every morning and afternoon. This is a very decent spot to use as a base for exploring Gloucestershire and its surrounds, particularly for those who like their wildlife or historic homes. Two golf clubs are within a quick drive, as is Berkeley Castle (10 minutes' drive away) and the Cattle Country Farm Park (five minutes' drive).

What customers say

This site is clean, well-kept, and welcoming, with praised spacious, level pitches with water hook-ups. Showers/toilets are spotless. The pub gets high marks for food/atmosphere. Easy M5 access, though some note traffic noise, found unobtrusive by most. Some mention limited kids'/dog amenities.

Powered gravel travel trailer campsite

Liked Lovely site, very friendly and helpful manager and excellent new toilet & shower block with first rate shower experience!The pitches are large and well spaced out, the site is clean and spacious for kids & dogs too. The on site pub serves very good food and had real ale which was good for me!
There is no drive-over grid for grey water disposal but there is a drain point (needs a long-ish hose) or you can drain on the pitch "as you go" if you don't use chemicals.

Disliked M5 motorway is next door and is noisy 24hrs a day. Not an issue daytime but we found it disturbing at night.

Liked Very well kept site and comfortable, well equipped caravan. Secure site and friendly staff. Relaxing place to stay.

Powered gravel travel trailer campsite

Liked Spacious pitch, very relaxed, helpful advice given from reception, small site no noise, easy access to everything and the pub is just next door. Very clean washing and toilet facilities, shower very spacious and a lovely temp. Don’t be put off that it’s next to the motorWay, yes you can hear the noise but it’s like white noise and helps you to get off to sleep. Didn’t spoil our stay at all.

Disliked It was quiet at the beginning of our stay, so not an issue at all but just wondered whether 2 toilets and 2 showers for each gender is enough. Toilet lights are on a timer and it scared my daughter when the lights went out, but it taught her to be quicker.
