  • Peaceful family-run park two miles from Stratford-upon-Avon
  • Shop, off-licence, free hot showers and spotless facilities
  • Regular bus service from right outside the site
Settle yourselves down here, Shakespeare fans: Dodwell Park is just two miles from Shakespeare’s birthplace, Anne Hathaway’s cottage and all the bardly attractions of Stratford-upon-Avon. There’s peace, there’s quiet, there’s a countryside setting – and if all that still isn’t enough for a final attempt to get the kids (and dog) reading sonnets, you can culture-ise them by taking them along to nearby Warwick Castle for all sorts of horrible history. Sorted. Dodwell Park is a small family-run site where the amenities are kept to spotless standards, with free hot showers, dishwashing facilities and hairdryers to keep the barnet looking tiptop. A shop and off-licence is on site, and armfuls of leaflets are at the information stand with info on Stratford-upon-Avon and other local tourist attractions. Nearby are Cotswold villages with Shakespearely thatched inns, walks and cruises along the River Avon and the hills of the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Boating, fishing and old buildings are at Luddington village about three miles from Dodwell Park. Leaving the car behind to avoid hiking up car parking costs in Stratford? A regular bus service stops right outside the site.

What customers say

Great location for Stratford-upon-Avon, with a bus stop nearby. Staff are praised for friendliness and helpfulness. Campsites and facilities (showers, toilets) are very clean. Pitches are tidy but can be close together and sloped. Some facilities are a bit dated but clean and work well. Generally quiet, though some noise reports exist.

Powered gravel travel trailer campsite

Liked Friendly welcome
Nice pitches with reliable 10amp electrics
Great showers

Disliked We had pitch 18 which is about 20 metres from the shower block.
All three days here then we had our fellow holidaymakers strolling through the middle of our grass area to get to the facilities. Bit rude when we were eating alfresco.
Suggest anyone who likes their own space steer clear of pitch 18

Liked Nothing!

Disliked Had planned to stay for the weekend. The owner took out money , but we soon discovered after the arrival of police , that the site had travellers in some pitches.
Whilst this is not the fault of the owner, we felt we should have been advised of the situation before taking our money.
We asked for a refund , after deciding to leave early as could not relax . Originally the owner suggested he would consider a refund as he was involved with a court order to remove the travellers. He abruptly advised they had left without further correspondence or a refund

VERY DISSATISFIED with the owners handling of the situation in relation to customer satisfaction

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: We are happy to confirm that our unwelcome visitors were very promptly moved on by the police with the use of an eviction order. Everything was dealt with as quickly as possible and with minimum fuss. It's a shame for those who panicked and left early (hardly anybody fortunately), they missed out on a lovely weekend, we were full to the rafters with the beautiful weather!!

Visit was spoiled.

Liked Friendly welcome.

Disliked When we got back from town a car was blocking the access road to our pitch and would not move. Then we discovered that our hook up cable was missing. So we left to find alternative accommodation. Explains why the site was practically empty when so near to a very popular destination. A shame for the site. I won't say don't use this site but you should be aware which community you might be sharing it with. Another reviewer had a similar experience. Wish I had read that before booking.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Sorry that you had a bad experience - can't work out how this has happened, can't really help, as the review has been left anonymously, lacking courage to put their name!

The perfect place to camp if you want to explore Stratford-upon-Avon.

Liked That there was a bus service outside, even thou they only run hourly

Disliked The pitches are on a slight slope, but they say they are flat. The shop only opens for one hour a day 8.30-9.30. Showers are free but could do with updating. There is a hair dryer to use but it blows out slower than the hand dryer. There are no plugs for you to use your own on which was annoying.

Liked The staff are so welcoming as you arrive, pitches are big so you don’t feel on top of the people next to you and facilities are clean.

Disliked Shop is only open for an hour and a half in the morning and has limited stock.

Local attractions

To Stratford-upon-Avon first: see what the big deal is by catching a Royal Shakespeare Company play before a trip around town to the Shakespeare attractions; buy a Shakespeare Five House Pass to see Hall's Croft, Mary Arden's Farm, Nash's House and New Place and Shakespeare's Grave alongside Shakespeare’s Birthplace and Anne Hathaway’s Cottage. Many companies offer cruises along the Avon, but to save pennies take a trip on the old chain ferry for 20p, or stay on land and take the mile and a quarter route along the Avon for views of the Royal Shakespeare Theatre, Shakespeare’s burial place Holy Trinity Church and the Memorial Theatre Gardens. Scores of other walks can be had in the Cotswolds, the biggest Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in England, with miles’ worth of footpath and bridleways broken up by small villages and market towns. The Cotswold Way runs 102 miles south from Chipping Campden to Bath and passes many historical houses and churches. After Warwick Castle, families can have a day out at the Ragley Hall Estate to get lost in the 3D maze, or go to Kenilworth Castle with its kids' audio trail covering the history of the castle and the lovelorn Robert Dudley who built it in the 16th century to impress Queen Elizabeth I. Kids will probably also like the gizmos at Stratford’s MAD (Mechanical Art and Design) Museum, Hatton Farm Village at Warwick or driving you nuts around the world’s biggest collection of historic British cars at the Heritage Motor Centre, which has the Land Rover Experience, a nature path and a playground.
