The site owners pride themselves on cleanliness, service and security and are always on hand should you need anything. Dogs are welcome.

A great spot, peaceful and quiet overnight. An excellent pub 5 minutes walk away and some lovely walks over the Common on the doorstep. The showers and toilets were very clean and well maintained. Friendly owners, always on hand for advice.

Top notch facilities. The site was well drained, we stayed after some heavy rain. The site was very quiet, a lovely area, with lots of walks with some steep drops. The village has everything you might need, 2 cafes, a chemist, a post office, general shops and pubs etc. I would stay there again and would recommend.

Things to do on site and in the Stroud area
Feast your eyes on the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty! Just 10 minutes from base there is a gorgeous National Trust area where you can gaze out over five valleys. Whether you want to get your (bike) wheels in a spin, hike off into the horizon, or try your hand at horse riding, it's all right here.
If you're feeling particularly brave, you can even go hang gliding over the green beneath you!
And the perfect end to any of these adventures has to be a cosy seat in one of many traditional country pubs with a warm welcome and even warmer food.
A drive further afield around the Cotswolds will take you to some incredible beauty spots such as the stunning Roman Baths in Bath, stately Blenheim Palace and the Cotswold Farm Park.
