Absolutely no complaints. The site is located just a stones throw from the M5 motorway. Trouble free check in with friendly informative staff. Directions to the pitch clear and easy. Facilities first class and spotlessly clean. Bus stops located outside the site entrance which made travelling to either Cheltenham or Gloucester very easy. A transport hub with access to other busses just a 15 minute walk away. Very well located for the popular spots in the Cotswolds. Whether you are planning a stay in the Cotswolds or just stopping off on a trip further down south this is the perfect site. I will be returning for sure.

Site's response

Dear Stan, Thank you so much for your glowing review. We’re delighted you enjoyed our convenient location, spotless facilities, and friendly team, and that the excellent transport links made exploring so easy. It’s wonderful to hear that you see Briarfields as the perfect base, whether for the Cotswolds or a stopover. We look forward to welcoming you back on your next visit! Warm Regards, The Briarfields Team

Sent an email with information on what to expect and what to do nearby a week before we where due. On arrival we was warmly greeted by our name. Information again on the local area given. Maps of Cheltenham and Gloucester was available. Bus stop to both places just outside. Standard of fittings was excellent, cleanliness of the site throughout and always a warm smile from the friendly staff.

Very clean facilities. Well maintained site. Great dog walking area. Good location and easy to find but there was noise from the main roads nearby. Wi-Fi did not work in our camping area.

Motorhome - Electric Hardstanding PitchesJul 2025

My friend and I attended a local festival and the site was brilliantly located for buses to the centre of Cheltenham for our connecting coach. The pitches are a perfect size and quite private. They're all within easy reach of the facilities. Speaking of facilities they were fantastically clean. The staff were great and happy to have a banter with you, always a big tick in my books. The information you get on arrival is brilliant no need to ask questions just get on and read the stuff. We're already planning our next stay.

Site's response

Dear Ann, Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re absolutely thrilled you and your friend had such a great time while attending the festival. It’s fantastic to hear that our location, facilities, and team all hit the mark for you! 😊 We put a lot of care into making the site welcoming and easy to enjoy, so your kind words really mean a lot. We’re already looking forward to welcoming you back for your next stay. All the Best, The Briarfields Team

Near to M5 and great stop off. Bus to Gloucester every 10 minutes and the docks and cathedral deserve a visit. The toilet blocks close at 11am till 1pm, which wasn't the best after we had our breakfast. We go for a shower 1 at a time so we can be with the dog and after getting up for work at 6am. I love the chilling morning without worrying about getting dressed and showered! The roads are a bit noisy but the site is so peaceful, apart from amazing planes landing over us! Will visit again.

Site's response

Dear Jennifer, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave your feedback. We’re really pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay and found the location ideal for exploring Gloucester. The cathedral and docks are definitely local favourites, and it’s great that you had the chance to visit. We appreciate your comments regarding the toilet block closing times. Cleanliness is very important to us and to our guests, and to ensure we maintain high standards, we do carry out essential cleaning between 11am and 1pm. However, the facilities aren’t closed for the entire two-hour period and we always keep the accessible washroom available for use during this time. Over the years, we’ve trialled various timings and have found this slot works best, as it falls between our 11am departure and 1pm arrival times, when the site is generally at its quietest. Despite the occasional road noise and overhead planes, we're glad you still found the site peaceful and it’s lovely to hear you’re planning to visit again. We look forward to welcoming you back soon for another relaxing stay! Best Wishes, The Briarfields Team

I never been glamping before and this a great place for my first time. The only two moans were the Internet kept going down and the pod got very hot at night but there was a heatwave. Otherwise it was great! I would stay here again.

Site's response

Dear Sarah, Thank you so much for your lovely review, we’re delighted to hear that your first glamping experience was a great one with us! 😊 We really appreciate your understanding about the heat – that heatwave certainly made itself known! And thank you for the feedback about the internet; we know how important a reliable connection is and we’re actively working on improvements. Warm Wishes, The Briarfields Team

Single Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesJun 2025

The site was easy to locate. Each of the pitch has its own enclosed pitch with hedges each side a place for caravan awning and grass area to sit and enough room to park the car. The shower/ toilet blocks are one of the cleanest we have ever had on a campsite. They are closed each day for a couple of hours so they can be cleaned thoroughly.

Site's response

Dear Jayne, Thank you so much for your kind review, we're delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us at Briarfields! It’s great to know that you found the site easy to locate and appreciated the layout of the pitches. We’ve designed them with comfort and space in mind, so it's lovely to hear that it worked well for you. We’re especially pleased that our shower and toilet blocks stood out to you, our team works hard every day to keep them spotless, and your kind words will certainly mean a lot to them. Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience. We’d be absolutely delighted to welcome you back whenever you’re next in the area. Warmest Regards, The Briarfields Team

Always nice to return to a site and find it better than it was previously, a good site re-invests to keep it up to date for customers, and Briarfields does not disappoint. The site is immaculately laid out, great pitches, friendly staff and top class facilities. Well worth a visit, excellent restaurants near by.

Lovely quiet site, goods for watching small planes come into land. Regular buses into Gloucester and Cheltenham, picking up outside campsite, we were lucky as could use OAPs bus pass. Could have stayed for longer!

Site's response

Thank you for your lovely review! We're so glad you enjoyed a peaceful break with us - and it’s great to hear you had fun watching the small planes come in! The bus links really are handy, and we're pleased you were able to make the most of them (OAP passes are a definite bonus!).

Single Axle Caravan - Fully Serviced Hardstanding Touring PitchesMay 2025

This was our second stay in in a fortnight. While the pitches aren't overly spacious - but neither are they restrictive - the site is beautifully maintained. There is just the one toilets and showers block for the whole site, but this doesn't appear to be a problem, and the site was almost at full capacity on our second stay. It would be good to have somewhere to eat on site, as the nearest eatery left much to be desired ,especially for those of us with a dog. Although we didn't use it, there are bus stops immediately outside the site entrance, with routes to many of the attractions in the area. We were initially aware of the small planes using the small local airfield, which appears to be restricted to main daytime only.

Site's response

Dear Gillian, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful and detailed review. It was a real pleasure to welcome you back for your second stay with us in such a short space of time! We’re so pleased you enjoyed the peaceful setting and appreciated the care we take in maintaining the site. We always strive to provide a relaxing and well-kept environment for our guests, so it’s lovely to hear that reflected in your feedback. Your comments about the facilities and location are much appreciated, and we completely understand your thoughts regarding onsite dining - this is something we’re actively considering for the future to make stays even more convenient, especially for guests with dogs. We're also glad the proximity to public transport was noted, as it's a great option for exploring without needing to drive. Thanks again for choosing to stay with us, and we hope to welcome you back again soon. Warm Regards, The Briarfields Team

Peaceful Holiday in Cheltenham

My sisters and I visited Briarfields Caravan Site seeking a peaceful holiday on a site which we could use as a base to visit the Cotswolds. We enjoy sightseeing & walking. We were very happy with our choice of caravan site. When we arrived, the man in reception was very friendly & welcoming as well as very efficient (I guess the vehicle number plate recognition system helps to indicate who has arrived). The site is well laid out & the pitches are well maintained. The toilet & shower facilities are very good and are cleaned regularly. We found the showers to be very good with plenty of hot water & a good flowrate. The site was very peaceful and we really enjoyed our stay. Thanks to all of the team that run the site.

Site's response

Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful review!

It's great to hear our team made you feel welcome right from the start, and we're pleased that the facilities, layout, and peaceful atmosphere all contributed to a relaxing holiday. We really appreciate your kind words, and we’ll be sure to pass on your thanks to the whole team. We’d love to welcome you back again in the future! Warm Regards, The Briarfields Team

Booked a 4 night stay to attend a rugby match. Chosen for proximity to Gloucester and was not disappointed. Easy to get to from M5. Supermarket with reasonably priced diesel located within walking distance. Friendly and helpful staff at reception. Great size pitch, had booked fully serviced and was very pleased. Did not use facilities but people I spoke to said how good they were. Good bus service outside gates to Cheltenham and Gloucester. Will certainly use again.

Thank you so much for your fantastic review Angela! We're delighted to hear you found us a "great find" and that the location worked so well for your trip to the rugby - we hope it was a great match! It's great to know the pitch met your expectations and that our team at reception made you feel welcome. Even though you didn’t use the facilities this time, we’re glad others gave them a thumbs-up. The local transport links and nearby amenities really do make things easy, and we're so pleased that added to your experience. We’d love to welcome you back again soon! The Briarfields Team
