  • 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.

Primitive grass campsite

Liked This is a small and peaceful site and was just what I’d hoped it would be. I thought I’d booked EHU, I hadn’t but the owner very kindly offered to provide us with it. The pitches were a good size and ours also had a privacy laurel hedge on either side. It was great for the dog as you’re able to let them off once you’re on the lane and we had a lovely early morning walk along the Severn estuary. The shower and toilets were clean. Apart from our neighbour who went off site and left their dog in their caravan to bark non stop (until they returned) the other dog owners were considerate. Lovely location. Didn’t get chance to visit the village pub which is literally five min walk from the site. Neither did we get to visit the coffee shop which is a 2 min walk. I’ll definitely return.

Disliked Neighbour who went out and left one of their dogs alone in the caravan to bark non stop until they returned.

Liked Small and quiet. Lovely setting. Good facilities, beautiful countryside. Lovely local pub a short walk away.

Disliked Could do with a few more bins, but then again, if we all took some home, it would help as I'm sure they have to pay extra for removal

Liked West End Farm is a relatively small site, but is spacious and has the facilities we require. It is situated on the edge of the village with easy access to fields and walks. It is ideal to walk our dog along tracks and next to the river. The countryside is full of wildlife and farm animals. It is a peaceful site but also within walking distance of the Pub.

Primitive grass campsite

Liked The site was well set out, each space was private to a degree with hedges either side.
There was a washing up station, showers and toilets.
It was quiet apart from noisy kids but otherwise was peaceful.

Disliked The toilets require more regular checks as someone had weed on the floor in one and it was a bit smelly.
Also no hand drying facilities for when using the loo but not the shower.

Power optional gravel travel trailer campsite

Liked The pitch was good, the amenities were Ok, the setting/village/pub very good. The area is great for walks - with or without dogs.

Disliked The "contactless" check-in arrangements probably works - avoids contact with hosts and their contact with the site ..hence the overlooked overfilled rubbish area!
Damn flies ..but that's not the site's fault!

Liked liked the pitches with hedges between

Disliked Unfortunately there was more to dislike than like - we had booked for 3 days on an electric pitch. We arrived to self check in and went to find an electric pitch - there weren’t any and had to pitch on a non electric pitch. The arrival instructions said to text details and they would get back to you with gate codes - we never did get a text back, we were hoping then to have a conversation about not having an electric pitch. The toilet block for the ladies did not have any loo roll in it or anywhere to dry hands. We left after staying less than 24 hours because we needed hook up. I like the idea of self check in but you would think owners would check you are ok and respond to a text

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 first-class mid-Wales scenery. (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.
