 Just spent the Bank Holiday weekend here and can’t praise the site enough, 10/10. Helpful staff, brilliant food and service in the cafe. Spotless shower and toilet block. Please note that the site does have a chemical toilet facility which is not listed above. Will definitely be returning.

 Great site. We were rather surprised by the number of families in incredibly large tents staying here as there wasn't really any facilities for the kids. There are a couple of goats & several large fields for the children to run around, playing football ect, but that was it. (Not a problem for us)

The site is on a slight hill which meant there was a bit of slipping down the tent in the night. That said, the site was immaculate. We were there for 5 nights & the grass was cut 3 times. The site was large enough that the owners were able to rotate the pitches, meaning the grass was able to green up.

The toilets were amongst the best camp shower block I have seen. (I only saw the ladies)

Wifi was ridiculously slow & only available outside the shop. (This is typical for the Forest though). This was ok for us as we were only checking the news & the weather, but there were lots of youngsters with slow tablets.

The shop was very basic. They sold amazing croissants and pain au chocolat which need to be booked the day before. The lady in the shop was incredibly helpful.

Drybrook is a small village. The Co-op is well stocked. We were told it was an easy walk, but we chose to stop off on the way back from our days out.

 Bank holiday weekend and following week. Small pitches, packed in to field that, although was told was flat, sloped sideways and downwards. No loo roll in any of Ladies toilets when first visited Friday 8pm until 8am Saturday.

Yes, nice to order croissants and fresh baguettes, but when we first wanted to have lunch on our departure day they didn't have any of what we wanted on the menu! We just left.

Handy location for Ross and Gloucester and site seeing.

 We have just returned from a wonderful stay at this campsite, I booked a couple of weeks before and was kindly given an excellent pitch (the owners in fact) we would like to say how lovely Glenys and Derrick were, very friendly and helpful throughout our stay, the site was immaculate, toilet and showers great and a lovely shop which sold the essentials. We would like to say a big thank you to Derrick who helped us to start our car on the day we left as we had a flat battery. We will definitely return as it's in a great position for the Forest and the Wye Valley, one of the best campsites we have stayed on, thanks again!

 Facilities that set the standard for everyone else.

We have stayed here before and thought that the facilities were excellent. Since then they are even better. Warm and clean shower block with space to put clothes and even a chair in each shower cubical. Hair dryers for both male and female. Washing up space inside in the dry with 6 sinks. The hole site was clean and tidy.

Fresh bread can be ordered from the site cafe along with a cooked breakfast if you want it. Where you can talk to the very friendly site owner & wardens.

If you are in a small tent then the facilities make a site and this is one of the very best sites we have stayed at.

Locally there are shops and a chip shop in the town (10 min walk) and more in the local centre at Cinderford. Excellent tourist activities in the forest of dean and some good walking very local to the site along with many National Trust places to see if it rains.

Note to walkers the Gloucester trail is pretty overgrown on the bits we walked.

If we could give the site facilities a score of 12/10 we probably would.

 A very family friendly site, beautifully kept, 1 large field for caravans and one for camping, and a smaller camp field that seemed to attract the small camper vans.

I really could not fault this site at all.

Toilets and showers plentiful, clean and stocked.

Toddler shower available with movable shower head, plus a disabled shower room.

Laundry room with 2 freezers for ice packs.

The best by far; according to my Children was the availability of the bakery! order by 6pm Croissants, pain-au-chocolate etc collect from 9 am the next morning perfect!

Families playing games in the middle of the large field, no problem with noise or anti social behaviour.

The site accepts dogs which have to be under control at all times, this was adhered to.

We had breakfast in the cafe on one occasion, lovely and reasonable priced.

No playground as such, but not needed such room was available to play games and on bikes etc.

If a rainy day greets you I would recommend the old cinema in Cinderford £2. 50 for all tickets! very quaint.

Would recommend and also stay again if happen to be in that beautiful, inspiring part of England.

We partook in cycling, walking and canoeing, all very local to the site.

Reviewer: Ifyouknowyourhistor 2 reviews from this member

 Made to feel very uncomfortable following initial warm welcome, as we listened to some low volume music whilst setting up tent but staff member who advised strictly no music or even radio -at any time of day or evening- end of story! What?! Site did not sell itself as a super quiet site so this was a real surprise. But we were respectful to their wish.

But had not expected to have a silent holiday, when music is one of life's joys.

We stayed for two weeks but received one of the smallest area pitches on the site. Also situated by the goats which of attracted early morning kids. This did not delight our teen who of course was woken from his slumber early on many days and the sites kids (incl ours) loved to feed the goats at every opportunity. The small size the pitch meant goats and kids in super close vicinity to the tent, tripping over guy ropes and constant kid noise. Whilst the manager was happy for us to move the whole palava of it was too much for my wife and so we stayed put. Turned out we were one of the long stay parties and despite us having a long standing booking the site putting us in a pokey pitch was thoughtless planning by the site.

Having been there for a week we were suddenly instructed the our windbreak guy ropes were a fire hazard for the next pitch as the were approx 1ft over the boundary of our neighbour. We obliged to move it but really? Nit picking.

We had to back our car into a tiny slot, short of parking right in frint of the tent and having no outward view at all where others had far more room.

Really the very restrictive rules damped the atmosphere and whilst we've been members of the camping and caravan club who have plenty these were strictly enforced.

Other campers were friendly though and site grounds were well maintained. Men's showers and toilets pretty clean. Women's had some maintenance issues but clean.

No kids play park on the site but green space in the middle sections for them to play. Providing you didn't ride your bike faster than walking pace!

The local town was a short drive or bike ride. Downhill there or up hill back but we really only used if for the co-op and a one time visit to the locals pub. There is a social club too but it was very local rugby club esq. And not our bag.

The Forest of Dean was great, and we all loved Puzzlewood dispite the other 'Puzzlewood' attractions being a bit over sold. Kayaks at Symonds Yat and the Yat were great. Local towns were a bit run down but had potential for positive rejuvenation. The Hostilery pub was great for food, as was inn on the Wye. Also the pub opposite Tintern Abbey.

We wouldn't go again to this site due to the overly strictly nature and short temperament of a staff member, although we never challenged any of the demands. Maybe a reminder that you're there on holiday to relax and enjoy yourself would help remind the actual purpose of the site.

The site sells itself showing only one field, which I guess is their showcase spacious field on their pics. But we were not in this one. Disappointing there were no nice views to look out onto from the site esp. As there are plenty in the general area.

 A great site for families, the staff are very friendly and make you feel welcome. The showers and toilets are spotless, one drawback however was the push button delay, the time the showers run for between presses was very short! The cafe was very welcome and the shop was well stocked if not a little expensive.

The site is very well kept, some of the pitches are slightly sloping but nothing too bad, we were pitched with other families and our kids made friends.

A fantastic site that we will definitely visit again and would recommend without reservation to anybody looking for a site in this area.

 Just got home from a 4 day break on this site with my wife and 2 young children. On arriving we were greeted, shown are pitch and asked if we wanted any help setting up. No fussy rules, as long as you're between the markers, you can set up as you like.

We were pitched on the lower field and all vans were around the edge of the field leaving plenty of room for the kids to play and meet each other enjoying games and making friends.

The site and all facilities were clean and tidy, staff were very friendly and we used the cafe and take away, good value for money and you can also order fresh bread or pastries for delivery next morning. There's also a small farm area with ducks, pig, goat which is near some pitches on the larger field. We walked our dog every morning in the forest, out of the site turn right and about 150 meters up the road. The only down side was a bit of traffic noise from the main road. All in all a great site and we will return.
