Great Site

Bourton-on-the-Water Club Campsite
Visited this site for 7 nights from 17/6/24. Very easy to find and very handy for the M5. We had booked a hardstanding pitch with awning. The pitch was a good size. The site is very well kept and the managers very friendly. The is a good dog walk on site but you can walk through a field to a bridleway and walk for quite a while.

This site is well kept but disappointed with pitch

Bourton-on-the-Water Club Campsite

This site is very well kept and the staff running it are fine. It is just their policy of where you have to pitch your van; you are not allowed to select your pitch. If you have a small van 6.5 meters or less you are allocated a pitch and we were under trees, and there was a bank at the back. I couldn't get round my van at the back otherwise the tow ball would be in the road. They save the larger sunnier pitches for the larger vans and that area has the most sun but where we were pitched after 3.30pm in the afternoon there was no sun at all. It is a small site but members shouldn't be penalised just because they consider you have a small van. All the grass pitches with hook-up are the same price.

Comment from the Club:

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We want to assure you that we do not have a policy of reserving the more desirable pitches for longer units. Our aim is to provide all members with a pleasant and enjoyable experience at our campsites. Most of the time, members are free to choose their pitch regardless of the size of their unit. However, during extremely busy periods on this Club Campsite, such as Bank Holiday weekends, the site staff sometimes need to allocate pitches more precisely to ensure they can accommodate everyone. Given that there are 10 grass pitches that are 7 meters or under, they do need to place smaller vans on these pitches when operating at full capacity.

We hope this clarifies our process and we look forward to welcoming you back for another enjoyable stay soon.

Very nice camping

Bourton-on-the-Water Club Campsite
First time when we are trying a camping with no showers, toilets etc. I have to admit that I booked this camping without checking very well the facilities :). But I'm not sorry for that,. because the camping is very clean, quite and in a good location. You need the care to visit Bourton on the Water, there is a bus I think but we didn't want to check the times so we used the car. Also to walk is like 5 miles and there is no walking path, and the road is quite busy, so not very safe. Definitely is a location to go there again for a weekend, if you want to relax and be in a quite place. Also to walk the dog, a lot of walking path after you are out from the camping, around the fields. Initially I thought that it's only a small path, but following the maps from camping, you have plenty of path to walk the dog.

Spoilt only by inconsiderate dog owners

Bourton-on-the-Water Club Campsite
Such a lovely welcome awaits visitors at this beautiful small site. The managers are so helpful, before and after arrival and during our stay. A quiet site There are no washing or toilet facilities. Which is ok but had there been a pot washing area that would be a big improvement - nothing fancy is needed. (Had there been pot washing facility I would have rated 5/5 for all sections.) The site is very clean and tidy and clearly the managers put a lot of work into the site to make it welcoming. It is within easy reach of M5 J11a on good roads, and the entrance to the site is good, single track with a passing place, hence no arrivals before 1pm. There is a large lay-by just past the campsite going towards Boughton 0TW on the right if you do arrive before 1pm. Good base for exploring the area. No shop on site, but stores within a short drive.
