Cotswolds Camping

Liked Came away for two nights with my fiancée over the weekend.

Pitch was great for us, situated away from the busier parts and nestled in a corner, our neighbours were a large family who were no trouble at all and respected the site rules.

For the price of the stay, the facilities were really good, the site was well maintained and tidy compared to a lot of sites we have been to.
The bar/cafe was lovely and had a great atmosphere with the live artist and to add to that, everything was decently priced, the staff were friendly and very welcoming.


We would gladly return in the future.

Disliked A couple of downsides I would like to mention (which is not a reflection on the site nor their team) was the campers based in the Private Field, which was set right in the centre of the site, which appeared to be a group booking by what can only be described as a Sunday league football crowd - Which lasted beyond the noise curfew on the Friday and started immediately with the sun on Saturday morning. Not to mention the reckless Bike riding by this group which seemed to stick to the main route in and out of the site, constantly.

We generally camp with our large family which does include young children but always ensure we stick to camp rules regarding noise and disturbances.

We did speak with other campers who highlighted this problem also so we were not the only ones affected by this.

I do respect and appreciate the hard work of the staff who I witnessed handling a complaint from a camper regarding the aforementioned group and also speaking to the offenders regarding this.

Liked Everything

Disliked Nothing

Liked Centralized amenities and overall cleanliness of the site and facilities.

Disliked Children and young adults hammering around the site on their bikes.

Liked Excellent site. Very clean and tidy, staff were brilliant and helpful. It helped that dogs were allowed

From the manager: Thanks so much for your review Ian. It’s really appreciated when we get positive feedback. We do strive to make this an amazing campsite and never rest on our laurels. Next year we’re hoping to add a woodland cinema and campsite ice cream van. Thanks again

Liked Great amenities.

Disliked We actually left after only 20 minutes of arrival.😔
The campsite was heaving! Everyone was crammed in.
The pitch was slanted and we were not accommodated when we asked to move, even though there were empty spaces.
It was very loud, children running everywhere, dogs barking and overall, just not for us.
Wouldn't recommend for anyone wanting a peaceful or relaxing experience but probably great for young families travelling with other friends who are happy with and wanting an extremely sociable break.

From the manager: This is upsetting to hear, we accommodate all types of bookings, people , pitches and more. We’ve added on our website in several places including on the booking application that you can request a specific pitch referring to our site map, you can also put in specific requests such as “flat pitch” or “quiet pitch”. We don’t hide the fact that we accept children, familes , groups and dogs. Apart from one day in our entire season every single booking has respected our noise curfew time of 10.30pm , again this is given to our customers before they book and after they book. We also mention that all of our pitches are pre allocated, so although when you arrived you may have seen empty pitches more suited to your requirements these would of been reserved for customers who have informed us of specific requirements. I think having all of this knowledge to hand whilst still booking and then leaving us a 1 star review is a little unfair, we’re working so hard in making this an amazing campsite but every customer is entitled to their opinion and we welcome all honest reviews as it gives us suggestions and ideas of excelling. Going off your review I think we will ask pitchup to add more information to their listing.

Liked I would definitely recommend Cotswold Camping. Staff are helpful and firendly. Lovely pitches. Great for familes with young and older children, also great for Couples.

Ideal location to explore the Cotswolds. Lovely onsite Cafe/bar, Art Gallery to visit. The Cauldron Cafe also offers a unique afternoon tea experience (booked in advance)

Disliked You do need to take your own toilet roll. The shop is only open at certain times or when you call the office

Liked Well laid out park, easy access to electric. Great location. Clean shower and toilet.

Disliked For a site as big as it was, you would have thought there would be more showers.
