September 2005 We've just returned from a weekend here and it's been 7 years since our last stay (not really sure why we stopped visiting). This weekend was to visit the Malvern Autumn Country and Garden Show where we spent way too much.
The site was full of caravans with a few tents dotted around and was surprisingly quiet given how many units were pitched up.
If you've visited any caravan & camping / caravan club sites you'll know roughly what to expect, however the site has been overhauled since our last stay and the shower blocks are now spot on. Dishwashing is also inside, in a separate heated room. Unusually for a club site there's also plenty of room for the kids plus a large indoor activity room with table tennis & pool. Some hardstandings have been added - the plastic grid type that sinks into the ground. Be warned - nearly had a nasty fall stepping out of the 'van as our plastic step acted like a skating rink on it till we pegging it down.
Interesting to note there are still problems with flooding, we've been cancelled a few times due to this when we used to visit years ago!
The area is lovely - very flat but overlooked by the Malvern hills. Take a walk to the top and you can see unspoilt countryside for miles & miles in all directions. There are several villages/towns within a short radius of the site but plenty of things to see if you want to go further afield.
We will be returning!

July 2005 We spent three nights at this site and had a wonderful, relaxing time. The kids loved the recreation hall (pool, table tennis) and there was plenty of room around the play area for ball games so they weren't bored. Facilities were excellent and wardens were very welcoming and friendly. Small shop was useful selling essentials, including newspapers. Didn't sell milk however but nearby village (about 10mins walk) had excellent bakery - well worth trying.
Site was full but didn't feel crowded as it is well laid out. The wooded dog walk runs around the perimeter of the site and is very good. Plenty of wildlife to spot round about and lots in area to visit.

August 2005 This is a really nice site set in a lovely area- real walking country not much to do other than that. The facilities are really good with no queues for showers etc. Abundance of wildlife, the rabbits are lovely.My only moan is that the small shop needs to be open longer.

July 2005 We had a super weekend here: the staff were friendly and helpful, the site is beautifully kept and the shower-blocks first-rate. Although the site was quite full, we never felt crowded and it was very peaceful. We had numerous visits from a tame robin and saw lots of magpies, jays, squirrels and field mice. Many interesting visits in the area. Highly recommended.

March 2005 I to visited Easter weekend for five nights. My family and I arrived on the Saturday at 11.56 and we were told we would have to pay £5 for arriving early, as check in time is 12.00! I know there are rules, but this was just extreme staff jobsworth. When we were finally shown to our pitch we were placed in the middle of a small field area on a makeshift pitch, because there had been heavy rainfall.
Now then, the site has excellent facilities, great showers and toilets. However our electric along with everyone else’s on the site tripped out some 7 times for varying periods of 5-15 mins due to the sheer load of people on the site.
One further word of warning, when at this site it rained (as it does in the UK) this site flooded like I have never seen a site flood before! There were caravan and motor home pitches where stand up awnings and ordinary awnings had to be detached and left so the unit could be towed to dry land!! The once fine facilities then became unusable as the drains blocked. We then found ourselves being towed out and checking in to another site. Having said all this and trying to be unbiased, the operators of the site done there best to assist everyone during this time, (but constantly blamed the weather) like it never rains in the UK!! And I am sure that during the dry summer this site would probably be very nice.

March 2005 We went for the Easter Weekend. Site didn't get too full because some areas were a bit soggy so they didn't put anyone on those areas. Toilet blocks are spotless, showers push on/off type, only four in each block (2 blocks). Lots of wildlife, but not much of a view otherwise. Staff are friendly and helpful. Site in a good position for exploring the area.

August 2004 Beautifully kept site. Clean toilets and showers. Very helpful staff. This was our first time towing. When we were shown to our pitch (by a member of staff on a bicycle!), he unhitched the caravan for us and helped to strighten the van. Would definitely visit again.

July 2004 I thought this an excellent site and would thoroughly recommend it.
The staff are extremely friendly and helpful, the whole site and its facilities are spotlessly clean, the camping field has rules that you must be at least 6m from the next tent, so there is very little noise from the other tents.
The site is in a beautiful area, and Upton on Severn is a short distance away, a good distance for a family bike ride with all the facilities you will want - pubs , restaurants, supermarkets etc. And a lovely town too.
It is not perfect - it is on the expensive side (though very good value for money), and it did seem to be a bit noisy after 9.00 near the childrens' play area - I would avoid this if you can. An excellent site

June 2004 Although this is a club site, they welcome non-club members.
We understood quite quickly why the Camping and Caravnning Club call themselves "the friendly club". We were made to feel extremely welcome. All staff members were very friendly and it seemed as if it was important to them that we were happy.
The pitches are not marked but it is a club rule that you must have at least 6 metres between each unit on all sides which results in a large pitch. We were taken through the site by a staff member on a bicycle who said he would show us a few pitches and we could choose which one we preferred. We took the first one we were offered (a beautiful space under the trees). We thought that they made an effort to put families together and adults together, but that could have been coincidence.
The site is large and well tended. About half of it is set in the trees and the other half is in a large open field with a play area (although we didn't see any pitches too close to the play area!).
The amenities are to an extremely high standard and there are plenty of them.
There is a pub within walking distance but it has closed down as I write, don't know whether it will reopen or not. But there are plenty of pubs within a short drive or a longer walk (between 2 and 5 miles).
I would highly recommend this site. It's lovely.

May 2004 Took the four children along for the weekend. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel at home.
The facilities are exceptionally clean and the staff are willing to help at all times.
There is a small shop which sells the bare essentials. The site is well looked after, the water is hot and even though it was over half full there was no noise at all.
The pitch was only booked two days before travel because they were worried that the tent field would not be suitable due to heavy rain. No need to worry the pitch was grassy and no mud insight even after two days. It is clear they care about your camping experience. As I believe all Camping and Caravanning Club sites are.
The site is four miles from the local supermarket and shops. However after a long walk with the kids along the Malvern Hills to British Camp the kids slept a long time.
I would recommend this site to any campers. However I believe non members are charged a £4.75 surcharge ontop of the daily hire fee.
