Lovely site, clean and quiet, plenty to do. Nice heated swimming pool, sauna, steam room and jacuzzi. Also had a good sized gym. The forest is a short walk away. Lovely and clean. Very nice hot meal in the restaurant, would definitely would go again.
An amazing campsite with a great vibe and so much so do

We stayed at Whitemead to celebrate my partner's 40th birthday. There were about 25 of us and every single person commented on what an amazing campsite it was with many saying it was the best they'd ever been to. There were activities for everyone of all ages and the kids had such a great time. We saw so many children enjoying the freedom to explore the camp site which felt safe and secure. We would love to return!
Great family weekend

Had a lovely long weekend break with family and friends. Site is in a beautiful location with lots of walks suitable for young children. The facilities on site are great and kept everyone entertained. Was a bit sceptical about pitching up on gravel but was fine and less bugs around than on a grass pitch. Would return. .
Great

We stayed on the meadow camp site which we couldn't fault. We really enjoyed our stay, there is one but! I booked this site so we could use the gym but it's not much of a gym, there were running machines, cross country machines and a couple of dumbbells and that's it. The fog walk was awesome.
Excellent campsite

Although we had a short stay, we found the site excellent. Great food every time we had a meal in the restaurant, brilliant helpful staff, great facilities and importantly to us, everything was very clean. Thank you for a great, relaxing break.

We had a lovely stay. The park is in a great location and the facilities were just what we were after. It was peaceful and quiet when we wanted it. Had nice walks and lovely pods. At night, there was entertainment and a lively bar when we wanted it too. Nice local pubs within walking distance. The food onsite was good and large portions. The pool and spa facilities were good. All the staff were really friendly and helpful. We had no change for the locker, so were loaned a £1 coin. We had no phone charger and this was also loaned.
Lovely place to stay

All staff here were very helpful and friendly. If you want a place to stay if you have children, or just as a couple, then I will highly recommend Whitemead. The facilities were great, as was the food, oh and the alcohol too. The walks around the Forest of Dean were excellent and the views amazing.
Very welcoming, clean and peaceful

Beautiful campsite, very clean and tidy facilities. Warm pool, which both my teenage and toddler children enjoyed. Food tasted delicious, with variety of gf and vegan options. Peaceful, no noise and staff very welcoming & friendly.
Great apart from Wi-Fi

Good site with great facilities for kids with a swimming pool and outdoor play, however there was scope for improvement. We found that the Wi-Fi signal was non-existent (when connected it didn't work and dropped out), and the phone signal was limited on Three and EE. This made it very difficult to do anything that required a phone or internet. This was super disappointing given we had hoped it would be great, to allow daytime play and evening work. The facilities weren't clean in the morning after the night before. I thought they offered a kids club - one of the reasons for booking, but there was no kids club and all kids activities required a parent to attend. We will return, but I hope they resolve these issues.
Really, really nice

Was our first time stopping at the park, and found it an excellent site. Camping pitches were well spaced and didn't feel cramped. Facilities on the site were far better than expected. Went for a lovely long walk round the surrounding forest. Will definitely be coming back!

Huge pitches and loads of space between caravans. Fabulous swimming pool. Direct access into the forest which is superb for dog walking, or even walking without a dog. Access into and out of the site is easy. Will definitely be returning.

This was our first time staying at Whitemead. We had a lovely time and will definitely be returning. The place was clean, with plenty to do there. Swimming pool, restaurant/bar, entertainment (including bingo). Showers are nice and hot as well. We had an electric pitch, for 2 adults, 1 child aged 9 and our small dog. The only downside was how muddy it was getting in and out of the tent. We knew this would be expected with having bad weather on the first day, but it was literally like a puddle, we couldn't really put our chairs up outside the tent because it was too bad. Could maybe do with some gravel or something to help, but other than that we had a great time.
Brilliant stay

Brilliant stay but would be nice for more choice of food without chips.
