Avon Camping

Location and tranquility

–

Such a lovely secluded field. You won’t be bothered by anybody and it is very relaxing. We had a little swim in the river which in October was of course freezing, but very refreshing and liberating. Highly recommend this site.
Tom the host is great and can’t do enough to make your stay enjoyable.

The site was clean and well maintained. The owner, Tom, visited and was a really nice, helpful man. A good personal touch without being intrusive. I’ll definitely visit again.

Location and attitude from the owner

The wife and I have just got into wild camping and wanted a campsite close to home so that we could test out our new kit and get the feel of camping without all the hassle. So, we booked a couple of nights at Avon Camping site and within a couple of hours we received a phone call from Tom the camp site owner. We explained that we wanted a quiet couple of days away from everything with very little disturbance. Tom informed us that at the weekends the campsite was busy, so suggested that we came in the week. This we did spending the Thursday and Friday at the site.
Now what we wanted was, peaceful countryside and a spot of fishing and that’s exactly what we got. The river Avon that runs alongside the camp site was beautiful and we saw all manner of wildlife. It rained quite a lot and the winds were strong and nearly constant, but if anything, this made our stay all the more enjoyable as it put our equipment through its paces.
Once the sun sent, all we could see in the darkness was log fires burning around the campsite and the stars above us, a magical experience. However, later that night some campers arrived late, set up in the dark and started playing music, although this didn’t bother use, as we were at the furthest end of the field. Next morning, Tom spoke to them and moved them further down the field where they could have fun without disturbing anyone else. There are few rules on this site, other than respecting other campers and the environment.
That’s what you get at Avon Camping, basic but clean facilities, that wild camping feel, and Tom, someone who goes out of his way to ensure that his customers really enjoy their stay, nothing was ever too much trouble.
We intend to go to Avon Camping again next season, and again mid-week in order to get our fix of peace and quiet in the Warwickshire countryside.

Nothing.

Was quite as was a weekday! But was lovely. Easy to find! Felt very safe. Was lovely for me and my friend, Clean Toilets / facilities .
We meet the owner Tom, who’s lovely&friendly! Made us feel welcome and not in any rush to leave.
Will defo be back!!

Was shocked to find that when we got to the spot, a quarter of the field was coned off and a very large party, adults and children, were going in and out of each others tents, not one of the party had face masks on when they were going in and out of the tents, I know that Avon camping had only been open for a month, but to let this happen was terrible, needless to say we will never go back there again. 😡

Open spacious site. Was able to pitch wherever. Basic but clean toilets, with plenty of paper and cleaning products. Permitted fired off the ground.

Bring your own water (but we were warned!!).

Liked the site and that you could pitch where you would like, left it to common sense to ensure you could maintain social distances. They only have a toilet block which was really clean. My type of camping 😀

No water tap

Loved the quite area it was located, nice size field not too over crowded, loved the river running round the whole feild. Very clean and tidy. Loved that we could have a campfire and bbq right by the tent and wasn’t so strict. The staff were very friendly and helpful if we needed anything

Nothing. Was up to what we expected
