We have visited this site on many occasions previously but never experienced closure due to flooding. The staff members could not have been more helpful, working in the small hours to check & ensure the safety of campsite guests Despite our visit having been unavoidably cut short, we thoroughly enjoyed the time we had Our refund was processed swiftly & efficiently The Abbey is a wonderful place to visit & highly recommended.

Great site in a great location. Poor WiFi.

This site is in an outstanding location. 2 minute walk to the town centre and right next to Tewkesbury Abbey. Also close to a huge field, great for dogs. The toilet/shower block is excellent, very clean and plenty of showers and loos. Closed for cleaning during the afternoon which in my opinion is much better than the more usual morning closing times at many other sites. Pitches are a good size. The negative of this site (which, to be fair applies to every other club site we’ve stayed at over the last 12 months) is the poor WiFi. We have paid for the premium WiFi plan but we had very unstable, intermittent access to the internet. We were only on site for one night so the poor WiFi didn’t present too much of a problem but it would have been a significant issue for us had our stay been for longer because we rely on WiFi access. The club really needs to address the WiFi problems, despite the upgrade WiFi access is still poor.

Practically in the town centre

Really spotless site and facilities. Beautiful flowers by reception. I did drive around a few times before finding my pitch even though reception staff had advised the map was a bit misleading - it may have been easier if there was another pair of eyes (I camped by myself). Despite the site being quite busy the facilities were never cramped and it was really quiet at night. Fantastic to be able to walk into town within a few minutes. Sadly missed the river trips as they aren’t available Mon and Tues at this time of year. Amazing to hear peregrines in the sunny evening, apparently they had nested on the Abbey.

Best site I’ve stayed on

This has been the best site that I’ve stayed on this year. Booked for one night but stayed for three. The staff were very helpful and nothing was too much trouble for them. There were easy walks to do from the campsite and the shops were just a couple of minutes from the site. The Abbey was just next door so a lot of history to digest all in all a wonderful pace to stay I will definitely be going back there.

Excellent stop over site - wished we'd have stayed longer!

Stayed here many times in the past but not since their refurb. Great welcome, lovely wardens and such a pretty, clean and tidy site. Loving the new hardstandings, large and clean. New shower/toilet block and it's 5*. Bins & recycling near entrance and plenty of water points around the site. We stayed with friends (their first time) and they loved it too. Easy walk into town and lots to see and do in and around Tewkesbury. Sadly we only had one night on our way up to Snowdonia but we will definitely be back. Not cheap but you know what you get with the CAMC.

We will be back!

Our first visit here, but what a great site! The location within 5 minutes walk of the town is unequalled and there are riverside walks very nearby. All of the facilities are raised well above the ground due to the frequent floods and the electricity posts are really tall too giving the whole site a very different "feel!" The facilities block is very modern and well maintained and the whole site is well cared for. In the evening Tewkesbury Abbey Church is illuminated and looks over the site; in the daytime it welcomes all visitors, so open- minded even our dog was allowed to go around inside the magnificent building with us. A good cafe too. Lots of very old buildings and interesting shops in the town, plenty of pubs, bars and restaurants too if you wish to use them.

Great location and facilities

The site is flat, well-maintained, and laid out. It's easy to get around and to access the MoHo Service Point - which is very good. The showers, toilets, washing up and cassette waste facilities are centrally located and only a short walk from any pitch. They are very clean and spacious. Hairdryers provided. Good accessible facilities too. The staff are friendly and welcoming. The reception has an info room with bus timetables and local attractions. There are a few essential items on sale in the Reception Area. Check in and out was easy. Location is perfect for Tewkesbury town. The site is a stone's throw from the Abbey and from there to the town centre which has all the shops, cafes and restaurants you might want. The Abbey is small but very lovely. The Abbey bells are beautiful (extended peals twice on Sundays :o))) but not too early. No gripes with the CAMC set up or staff but I do wish some guests would switch off their engines while checking in instead of letting them idle! It's not necessary and if you're on pitches 5,6 etc as we were, it could get pretty unpleasant. There is a planet to save!

Spotless and great location

Great location, not far off the motorway - ideal as a stopover for our trips between Yorkshire and the south west. Facilities are spotless, the best we have used on a site - new toilets and showers - warm, big cubicles and a water saving flush system - great idea. Lovely floral display at reception and the grounds are pristine. A pleasant shaped site surrounded by trees, next to the Abbey and the cricket ground and 4 mins to the town/river etc. Definitely reccommend.

Excellent location

Spent 2 nights at Tewkesbury returning to Lancashire from Dorset. Nice welcome from the site staff who marked up the map with the available pitches of the type we'd booked, which made the choice a lot easier. Opted for a pitch near the exit, which was more spacious than others on the site. Toilet block is large and very modern, feels like the site is possibly on the large side for only one toilet block, but realise that we had pitched about as far away as it's possible to be! The water saving considerations that are in place meant that the showers had a little less water than other sites we've stopped on, but wasn't a problem. Proximity to Tewkesbury was great, it's a fantastic little town with a lot going on, plenty of pubs, restaurants, shops, and a nice walk along the river too. Having the park on the site boundary is really good for dog walks each day. We also did part of the battle trail, which is worth doing.

This is one of the few Club sites that we would return to. We currently have a list of only two - Tewkesbury & Abbey Woods. Location, Location, Location - that's what makes it so special. The site is nestled nearby to the lovely Tewkesbury Abbey and is only a few minutes walk into the bustling town. Pubs, cafes, shops all in abundance. We stayed for three nights and really enjoyed it. Pitch 136. The sun sets (in August) just past the tower of the Abbey.
