 We overnighted here on our way down to Devon, unfortunately we went in early July during that monsoon type weather.

After setting up we spent the night trying to sleep under the noise of hammering rain. The following morning we were woken by site wardens to be told that we had to be off the site inside one hour as flood water was on its way.

You can imagine the scenario about 100 vans all packing up like headless chickens and trying to get off site get refunds etc.

All that aside Tewkesbuy is a lovely site, all facilities are great as per Caravan Club standards with good pitches well laid out,

There is bags to do and see in the area as well.

Definitely go back again given the chance.

 Brilliant location with many interesting towns and villages an easy drive away. Tewkesbury itself is a really pretty town and is well worth a visit.

The CC standards have slipped a little for this site. Little or no hot water to toilet block taps in the mornings / broken toilet seat in handicapped toilet stall / damaged toilet block door - left damaged. The entrance gate was damaged whilst I was there and this caused a bit of confusion in the evenings when exit gate had to be used via a 'swipe key'.

Site suffers from local flooding and in the rain site tends to get very soggy easily.

I have used this site as a 'half-way' stop to Devon and Cornwall for many years but will find another stop in future.

 Used this site for a stopover, on the bank holiday fri night, the staff were friendly and helpful. Was told to pitch where we wanted and let them know which number we were on,

Unfortunately we had sited next to the footpath and was disturbed during the night by locals that had been drinking, also the pigeons were nesting in the trees and their cooing kept us awake,

Overall we were impressed with the site and it was only minutes into town or other walks.

Only downside we wanted a early start and the main gate was locked till 7. 30am.

 Just spent 2 nights at this lovely site.

The Town is a few minutes walk away and many pitches have a view of the Abbey which is especially beautiful.

The toilets blocks are clean and the grounds very well maintained.

You can pick your own pitch, which I believe you can at most other Caravan Club sites as well.

The staff seem friendly and welcoming. There was a small shop on site which was adequate given that the town centre is only a short walk from the site entrance.

A very nice and quiet site. We only live local to the site but it makes for a very restful weekend break.

 Stayed 2 nights. Site very central to town, easy walk. Near to abbey which is worth a visit.

As usual for a caravan club site it was extremely clean and tidy, quite regimented as to where you can park. There are 2 toilet/shower blocks so there is always one open at cleaning times.

Not sure if would be suitable for families with small children as there were a lot of older people staying here when we visited, it may be different in the summer.

Nothing on site for children but there is a park next door.

 We enjoyed our 3 days on this site, where we were told to pick our own pitch, we got one near to the toilets and recycling and had to listen to people putting bottles in at midnight. I would have liked to see the wardens giving more guidance to people selecting a pitch,

Due to reseeding some pitches were only suitable for small motorhomes, yet the owners of them often choose large pitches leaving people with larger outfits struggling to get onto a small pitch. We also suffered from noise from the 2 local clubs, one each side of the site.

But Tewkesbury is lovely, the abbey well worth a visit as are the Abbey tea rooms opposite the abbey but not part of the abbey. Don't try the river trip, it's short and once you have paid the crew do not say another word, a small commentary would have helped make this trip more enjoyable.

There is a large children's play area in the local park right next door.

We will return here

 Stayed for a weekend break with friends.

Convenient location- literally a few minutes walk to both the Abbey and the town itself.

The reception staff were very friendly, stocked some essential items and we particularly enjoyed the floral display at reception.

The toilets were clean and well lit. Laundry facilities plus a washing up area also.

Our pitches backed onto a path way which was very noisy on the Saturday night with people exiting a nearby pub.

It did keep me up but I put this down to the proximity of our pitch- if you are sited elsewhere on the site, I imaging it to be a lot quieter.

I would return to the site. Tewkesbury is a nice little own with some useful shops and cafes.

Reviewer: Mogs70 13 reviews from this member

 Very well situated close to all amenities- its an easy, level walk into town. Facilities are of the usual high Caravan Club standard. Lovely floral display at reception.

These big sites do tend to feel a bit 'car park' ish, but that's a small price to pay for the high standard and convenience.

We weren't impressed with the Bell either - try Theoc for tapas, especially the chorizo in red wine and the wild mushrooms in peppercorn sauce, both fabulous.

Some lovely pubs too, lots of real ale. Well worth a few days visit.

Reviewer: Piffy57 37 reviews from this member

 Fabulous site.

Wardens were brilliant and a credit to the CC.

Everything about the site is good. Location, facilities and space so that you can relax in peace.

Its in the shadow of the Abbey which is well worth a look.

Access is difficult down Gander lane and the art is to take your time.

Park for the dog to run about on next to the site and the shops are about five mins away

The local pub is the Bell and its poor with service and food.

We will definitely visit this site again

Reviewer: Treble 13 reviews from this member

 Stayed for nearly a week and thoroughly enjoyed it. Staff very helpful, facilities clean and pleasant. We found cycling around the area to be a pleasure with lots of cycle lanes. The boat trip up the river was a bit disappointing - short & no commentary.

There pitches are very varied in size/layout which is nicer than just row upon row. There are several areas within trees with a handful of pitches which is nice for being with friends.

Some of the 'side-on' pitches are long and narrow - and clearly suitable for an overnight stop where you can choose not to unhitch if you wish.
