Why stay here ...
Southwick Farm is situated approximately half way between Birmingham and Bristol (40 miles from each) and is located an easy 5 minutes drive from the M5 motorway (Junction 9). Our CL is an ideal place to break your journey when going North, South, East or West.
Southwick Farm is a peaceful site located on a family working farm in the Gloucestershire countryside. The site is located in a sheltered field with electrical hook-ups and space for awnings. Children and dogs are welcome at the site and a warm reception is always guaranteed. Ideal for visitors with motor homes.
Our site is an excellent base for exploring the surrounding area. Close by is the historic town of Tewkesbury with its wonderful Abbey. There is also a reenactment of the "Wars of the Roses" Battle of Tewkesbury which is held in July each year. The town provides a selection of shops, pubs, restaurants and a supermarket. Visitors can also enjoy a lovely walk along the river Severn.
The main bus route is just a short walk away with buses to Tewkesbury, Cheltenham and Gloucester and all the surrounding district.
The famous Cotswold Hills are a few minutes drive away offering stunning natural countryside and gorgeous Cotswold villages with a huge selection of eating places and a range of attractions too numerous to list. The famous spa town of Cheltenham with its famous Racecourse and Georgian architecture is 10 minutes away as is the county town of Gloucester with its Cathedral and famous redeveloped Docks. Tewkesbury is 1.5m north of the site, only a 30 minute walk.
This is an area to suit all tastes.

OK but...
Grassy site, good if few campers, but restricted by overhanging trees. 10 minute walk to buses to Tewkesbury (or Gloucester/Cheltenham). Site spoiled by occasional "drains" smell.

Peaceful and welcoming
We stayed on the site in our motorhome over May bank holiday. Very peaceful overnight. Very welcoming and helpful hosts. As the grassed areas were quite wet, we were given a hardstanding area next to a farm building that had an electric hook up. On the doorstep of Tewkesbury for... Show more

Great for Tewkesbury
We stayed over on a bank hol weekend, so working farm was quiet. Walked the shortcut through the hedgerows to Tewkesbury, with its Abbey, amazing old buildings, fantastic charity shops, yummy South African cafe, Riverside walks and obsession with the wars of the Roses, and its part in it. Then... Show more
