Superb toilet block and showers. Well run campsite.

 Beautiful clean, tidy site, minimal traffic noise - or noise of any sort! Nice dog walk on site, plus another walk at the back of the site, beyond the static holiday lodges.

This is a large flower meadow, with some paths carefully mown around the edge and through the middle - a lovely peaceful place to walk. Also, a fishing lake on site so water fowl wandering around.

Lots to see and do here in the Cotswolds, then return to the site for a restful evening - fish and chip van visits on a Friday evening!

Economical stay for a solo retiree camper, as a Club member.

Bad news: the site no longer refreezes ice packs. 'Health & Safety', I was told. I had to go out and buy a powered cool box to try to preserve my fresh food. Otherwise score would have been a universal 10/10

 We were allocated a hardstanding pitch by the very friendly and helpful staff member. (We had booked one. )

The site was busy due to Cheltenham races but quieter after they finished.

Pitches are large and very flat. Most overlooking a pretty lake. The grass pitches were not in use due to recent heavy rainfall.

We were asked to avoid driving on the grass for that reason.

There is a little road noise at times but not obtrusive.

Toilet facilities were spotless at all times, good hot showers.

WiFi was pretty good, phone and TV reception good too.

There is information about local walks and pubs by reception.

There is a good pub about a half mile away over fields via a footpath, but the paths were very soggy so we had a look but decided against it!

There is a children's play area and dog walk as well a room with TV for campers to use.

The site is ideally placed for visiting the Cotswolds and close to the M5.

The Gloucester Steam railway runs close by with nearest station at Broadway 5 Miles away. It goes to Cheltenham Race course

 Excellent site, easy to find, immaculately clean, dog friendly and well spaced pitches.

The site staff were all really helpful and nothing was too much trouble.

Shop was small but well stocked with essentials and had good opening hours.

Highly recommended place to stay.

 Really lovely friendly site, nothing is too much trouble for team.

The pitches are nicely spaced and very neat and tidy.

The washrooms toilets and dish wash area are all well appointed and kept spotless.

There’s young trees dotted about the site affording shade, and the stroll around the lake is delightful.

Loved it!

 First time at this site, tried 2021 to stay as a stop off on way to Cornwall but only none electric pitch available.

Was met by a friendly warden who took our name then went to get info about site, pitch number etc. Already paid a deposit so they took the rest of the money on day of arrival so no messing having to go into office.

Our pitch was towards the back of the site, which was spacious, clean & tidy & had good views of the hills.

We arrived after leaving Cornwall & the bad weather followed us to the Cotswolds, so put our awning up in the rain, a first for us, but after that 1st day the weather was nice, not hot but nice & warm & sunny. I used the laundry facilities the same day we arrived as we had been in Cornwall 9 days & wanted to wash the clothes we had worn, £4. 50 for the washer, £1 for 20 mins dryer.

The site was nice & quiet although a family site only saw 1 family while were there. There is 4 ready tents on site, some pitches are seasonal I think, then touring pitches mixed in.

There is a separate area where there is chalets think these are private so cannot get in as barrier to get through. There is a large dog walking area & a path at the side of the chalets where blueberries & sloes were growing, so had blueberries on my breakfast & brought the sloe's home to make gin.

Most of the other caravanners had a dog or 2, we don't but all the dogs were good could see them being taken for a walk except one campervan who let their 5 dogs use their pitch to do their business. No excuse, although they did pick up after them it was no accident as they walked them around the pitch until the dog decided where it wanted to do its business, they were just lazy & all the dogs (spaniels) & the 2 adults all slept in a campervan no bigger than an ice cream van, Cant see that was very healthy for all concerned.

There was a lovely old pub about 2 miles up the road called Ye Olde Hobnails Inn, the food was fab, we called on the Sunday later afternoon & they were still very busy, we called again the last night we were away & although it was quieter the food was still as good.

Winchcombe was about 4 miles away, parking in Back Lane was £1 all day, very good value for money.

We went to Cheltenham on the bus from Winchcombe, bus's were hourly from the Cenotaph.

There is plenty of walks around Winchcombe & I think from the site itself, there was walks already printed out for you to take.

All in all we loved the site & will go back when in the area again.

 First venture in our new caravan. Very welcoming wardens who were able to site us near friends even though we had booked separately and at the last minute.

Level pitch although we did seem to be on the windy side of the site.

Facilities spotless and although the site appeared full, they never were busy, apart from the occasional wait for a washing up space.

Reviewer: Kevinsheldon 36 reviews from this member

 Arrived Friday 24th without too many problems except we didn't see the site signposted till we arrived at the gate.

Extremely friendly wardens made pitching up a pleasure.

The hardstandings have all been resurfaced with cotswold chippings since we were last here and are in good order. Ours was absolutely level.

The site was full but all showers were empty when I went in. Glad to see they've ditched the idea of shower curtains. Improves the experience immensely.

We walked to the Gardener's Arms across a couple of fields. Fairly straightforward, however the farmer had ploughed up the path so progress was slower than it should have been.

We enjoyed our stay and will most likely return.

 We decided to stay at this campsite for just 2 nights in order to break up our journey home from another C&CC campsite further south.

Winchcombe C&CC site has easy access and pitches are well spaced, however on the far side of the lake the pitches are slightly sloping (where we were pitched) so levelling is necessary under one side of the unit. The immediate pitches and those at the top of the campsite are level so no issues regarding levelling at all.

The site is well maintained which the toilet block and showers are immaculate plus the site has plenty of night lights illuminated around the perimeter of the lake which is beneficial for evening dog walkers, however, there is a huge dog walking field accessible down a narrow public footpath adjacent to the hired lodges which are fenced off.

The only criticism we can say is that the TV reception was exceptionally poor in comparison to other C&CC sites we have visited and even only having received few channels (after several TV tuning attempts) some were severely breaking up which was a shame really.

It was somewhat disappointing as the two nights that we stayed, the weather was absolutely horrendous with stormy heavy showers with loud thunder claps during early hours of the morning which must have shocked just about every person on the campsite due to it's loud volume and intensity.

We would consider visiting the campsite again in the future but now having seen what the site is like we would prefer a flat pitch at the top of the field which is also nearer to the toilet block where the chemical disposal point is located.
