A note from the site themselves...

Historically, the campsite was only available during events held on the showground. Then Covid hit, and events were pretty much not a thing.

Like other organisations, the showground had to look for other ways of staying afloat. And like many organisations, with air travel restricted, it was decided to offer the campsite on a more regular basis.

Thankfully, the showground can host dozens of events again, some small, some large, but we realised there is a demand for somewhere to stay in the Malvern Hills National Landscape (formerly an AONB). So, while it's not a long history, it's become an integral part of the showground.

Three Counties Showground Campsite is ideal for...
