One of our favourites

Highmeadow Farm
Just back from another stay at Highmeadow Farm. Last time we went it was late summer. Eileen said we should come back in the Spring to see the lambs, so we did. To repeat my last review, the site is easy to access, the owners are lovely, with lots of advice if needed. The field slopes gently, no problem getting level, there's electric, water, chemical loo disposal and recycling; what more could you want in a CL? Plenty of walks around, either on footpaths or quiet lanes, lots of wildlife to be seen and nice scenery. One of our favourites.

Tranquility

Highmeadow Farm
If you want to get away from everything and emerse yourself in beautiful countryside this is the place, the night sky on a clear night is fantastic, in the morning getting woken up only by the sheep as they wander from the woods into the fields. A great site well worth visiting, maybe get family with us next time staying at the self catering accommodation, thanks Eileen and John. John & Paula

Lovely Peaceful Site

Highmeadow Farm
Wonderful peaceful dog friendly site with plenty of space surrounded by rolling hills and lots of sheep. The site slopes in places but we had no problem levelling up and we were able to pitch where we wanted to. The site has electric hook up, fresh water and waste disposal but no showers which wasn't a problem as we had one onboard our caravan. There isn't a pot wash area but they do have recycling facilities. Eileen the owner is really friendly and happily extended our stay. Make sure you have a chat with farmer John he has lots of stories to tell. We will definitely return one day. 🙂

Helpful and friendly hosts

Highmeadow Farm
Just returned home having spent 9 nights at this beautiful scenic and tranquil site with stunning views around and easy set up. We have been using CLs for over 20 years now and John and Eileen were by far the best hosts we have had the fortune to stay with. They were so very helpful and friendly right from the start when we arrived with our car troubles. Nothing was too much trouble. Thank you John and Eileen for making our stay so enjoyable.

Tranquil and welcoming

Highmeadow Farm
We have just returned from a wonderful 2 week stay on this tranquil site in a beautiful location. On our arrival we were made very welcome by Eileen and John and we soon realised what a gem this site is. The site itself is very spacious and well maintained. It is in a wonderful location within easy walks to Coleford, a charming market town, and to the village of Newland with its medieval church (the Cathedral of the Forest) and local pub. The Forest of Dean is very dog friendly and there are numerous beauty spots or places of interest very close by, such as Symonds Yat, Goodrich Castle and Tintern Abbey. We felt that we had only scratched the surface of this area and look forward to returning to see more. We would have no hesitation in also returning to this site. Only one very minor point would be the slightly tricky waste disposal point - but this would in no way prevent us from returning to this site. Thanks again to our hosts - we had a great time.
