Had a lovely couple of days at the site. Excellent location, the bus stop is just outside the site and frequent into Gloucester and Cheltenham. Site was very tidy, the shower block and facilities were very clean and spacious. We will definitely be back.

From the minute we arrived we were met with a welcoming and informative host, who made us feel so welcome. The campsite itself was very well laid out with plenty of space for our motorhome. The facilities were over and above with catering for all needs, easy access and spotlessly clean. We shall certainly be returning in the near future for another peaceful and relaxing break. Thank you all for making our short break so enjoyable.

Very friendly staff provided a warm welcome as we commenced our stay. Site is well laid out and we found the camper van pitches to be generous in size. The groundwork, hedges etc are well maintained and pleasing to look at. The wicker work sculptures, dotted around the site, add to and complement the general appearance. The site is located on a decent, frequent and reliable bus service either into Cheltenham or Gloucester. There is plenty of places and attractions to visit and the "welcome email" that arrived a few days in advance of our visit, highlights a multitude of 'things to do' in case you hadn't planned anything yourselves. The facilities are modern and very clean.

Thanks for taking the time to share such a great review Robert! We are pleased to know that you enjoyed your stay and the layout.

Had an excellent stay at a very well-located site halfway between Gloucester and Cheltenham. Pitch sizes are huge and well set-out. Toilets/showers very clean. Bus services are second to none, one every 15 minutes both-ways. Would stay here again even if it's just an overnight stop due to it's close proximity to the M5. Also liked watching the small planes going into the local airport. Great fun.

Lovely well kept adult only site. The toilets are very clean, as is the site itself. The price is very reasonable as well. Off site there is an Harvester pub & KFC within easy walking distance. The pitches are not the biggest but big enough for a van with an awning.

We had a lovely 2 night stay in Bluebell twin pod. Very cosy, clean and comfortable. Nice and private. A suggestion would be to highlight the need to bring own cutlery and plates, like it says for the bedding, which I did bring my own. There is an ASDA close by and we were able to get essentials from there. However, we did have 2 lovely cups that were already in the pod. Great toilet facilities close by. We enjoyed getting the no 94 bus to Cheltenham and Gloucester.

This campsite is immaculate with well manicured pitches. The toilet and shower blocks are modern and regularly cleaned. Good security as number plate recognition barriers on both entry and exit. Safe and quiet, considering it is quite close to a main road - don't let this put you off as it was a quiet oasis amid an urban area. Pub with reasonable food and a KFC within 5 minutes walk. Definitely well recommended from us.

We had a lovely week at Briarfield, tent location B in the centre of the site tucked in the top corner with plenty of space with electric hook-up. Sun from early morning shading over mid afternoon. Gravel path leading to the washing up station and shower block which was well maintained and clean. Glass/general waste/recycling bins were found round the back. We had typical British weather, which didn't hamper us as we made the most of the National Trust and English Heritage sites, along with a lovely walk around Puzzle Wood. Great for kids, but make sure you wear good walking boots or trainers due to uneven ground and a visit to Bourton-on-the-Water (download the parking app Pay by Phone and stand by the ticket machine by the public toilets to use the free Wi-Fi in the main car park, giving you flexibility to extend your stay) A short drive and you will find plenty of places to eat if you fancy a night off. Briarfield is located between Gloucester and Cheltenham and close to the M5 so you will hear the traffic but don't let this put you off - still a lovely little site.

Thank you so much for your detailed and wonderful feedback Alaine! We're thrilled to hear that you had a lovely week at Briarfield and enjoyed your stay in tent location B. It's great to know that you appreciated the spacious area with the electric hook-up, the early morning sun, and the shaded afternoons. We're glad you found the gravel path to the washing up station and shower block convenient and well-maintained. Our team works hard to keep everything clean and in top condition for our guests. Your tips about the local attractions and practical advice for fellow guests are fantastic! Puzzle Wood and Bourton-on-the-Water are indeed beautiful spots, and your suggestion about using the parking app and the free Wi-Fi will surely be helpful for future visitors. We're pleased to hear that you enjoyed exploring the National Trust and English Heritage sites despite the typical British weather. It's wonderful that you found plenty of dining options nearby for a night off from cooking. We appreciate your honest note about the traffic noise due to our proximity to the M5. We're glad it didn't deter you from enjoying our lovely little site. Thank you once again for your kind words and comprehensive review. We look forward to welcoming you back to Briarfield in the future! Best Wishes, The Briarfields Team.
