Staff very friendly and helpful. It was really cold and the shower block was properly warm with lots of hot water. Also had a drying room for wet boots, coats etc, which was useful. Footpaths were very wet and slippery so we walked into St Briavels along the road. It's about a mile and it's a fast road with surprisingly a lot of traffic, hence the four stars for the location.

Lovely peaceful place

Lovely, peaceful campsite. Donna and Rob were very welcoming on arrival, and very helpful with places to visit in the area. Please be advised when arriving at the campsite, the sat nav (on iPhone) sends you 200 yds past the campsite to a right-hand turn, where it can be a little tricky to turn around if you're in a large vehicle. On your return, the sign for the campsite is quite small, dark and easily missed. Apart from that, it's a great site with all the amenities.

Very nice stay

Could be a great little site. Maintenance is clearly slipping as the men's toilet smelt really bad. Never cleaned any of the shower/toilet blocks during the entire time we were there, from what we saw. The showers were lukewarm at best and the washing up area was out of use due to a pipe that burst two weeks previously. Real shame, as a good daily clean of the blocks, a small bit of maintenance and some hot water would have made it perfect.

Little gem

We had a wonderful time. Our stay started off well when we had a lovely warm welcome from Donna and Rob. Nothing was too much trouble for them and always with a smile. Our pitch was good- they all are. Shower block was clean and tidy. Dog wash area around by the boot wash area- this was a good bonus (we have 2 dogs who love walking especially through mud!). Maybe a cheap shower head fitting would be a double bonus for this super facility. Nice dog walk around the outside of the site and lots of beautiful walks from the site. Walked to the village, went to the St George for lunch- was good. Ask the landlord about the ghosts! Village was very quiet but some interesting buildings. We will return - thanks 😁 xx

Great campsite!

Really good campsite in the Wye Valley area. We struggled to find many places open in the winter, so this was great. I would say it was slightly on the expensive side for what you get, and the time of year, but still felt it was a lot better than others and had everything we needed. The wardens on site were so lovely and friendly so a big thanks to them. Would stay again.

Great stay and lovely location

Excellent park and really friendly staff. The washroom block was immaculate. Only small fault, I found the shower a bit hot and cold. Great pub in the village of St. Braviels, with lovely food. Definitely go again.

Single Axle Caravan - Hardstanding Pitches (Optional Electric)Dec 2023

We had a lovely break in between Christmas and New year. What a lovely place! Upon arrival, we were greeted by the lovely Donna who was so friendly, warm and welcoming - presenting us with a bottle of prosecco for the festive season. What a thoughtful gesture and great touch. The wardens were both so helpful and could not do enough for us. Great site with many tourist places of interest and great food close by. Also, very peaceful and spotlessly clean with great pitches. Highly recommend and will definitely visit again. Symonds Yat is a fantastic place to visit too (only 15 mins drive) with stunning views and walks.

Excellent site, very clean and warm toilets, much needed on the cold nights. Good walk across fields to local pub, good dog walks from the site.

This was our very first experience of 'Van Life'. As novice campers, this site was perfect! The people who run it were so friendly and put us at ease when I explained we new to the camping scene. They are dog friendly too which was a must for us when booking. Would be lovely to stay in the summer months!

Great

A fabulous stay on a peaceful, clean and friendly site. Fabulous walk and waterfall just a short stroll away and not far from fabulous attractions for all the family. Highly recommended.
