RELAXED AND SPOTLESS SITE

What a fantastic site, location perfect for visiting all area of cotswolds. weather made it a perfect holiday. lots to see, also plenty of lovely places to eat, Sunday roast at the Plough in the village of Ford was expensive but well worth the money. Our highlight was to see the Wanderer caravan and its history on display at this site. We highly recommend staying here, wardens very friendly.

Great site which has recently been upgraded

Visited the site for the first time and the photos are out of date at present. The site looks so much better than the photos, all the hardstandings are on a Cotswold buff stone now, the service points are all renewed and immaculately clean, grassed areas are all mown and strimmed and hedges and shrubs well cared for. Wifi looks as if it’s been upgraded renewed and we had no problems with wifi. They site is a busy site and looks as if it’s been heavily invested in its upkeep. The new playground is fantastic which has been totally replaced with new modern play equipment. Very much recommend this site. PS the hard standings are very hard and a wooden mallet will be wasted.

Toilet block cleaning to suit visitors not staff

Great site within walking distance of Broadway (10 mins) a very pleasant village with great facilities. The cleaning times of the toilet blocks is scheduled mid afternoon which is when most people don't need them, a great idea which we wish would be taken up on every site. Easy access from the raid into Broadway. We will return some day.

Top Class

Our first visit to the Broadway site for 3 x nights 25th - 28th June. Worst thing about the site is that it is too popular! Staff great, pitches a good size and well maintained. Be warned, judging by our experience and others we observed, you need good quality hard ground pegs and a good hammer for pegging down. Road noise was noticeable but not intrusive. What did surprise us was the rifle shooting on a nearby range throughout Monday evening until after 21:00 which got a bit annoying. The site improvement works that have apparently been going since November were a little inconvenient but judging by the speed of work, they will still be ongoing next November! We loved Broadway and the convenience of being able to walk in and found the Budgeons store to be excellent. Will be back if and when we can get booked in as there are so many more places to visit in and around Broadway. Incidentally, we had no problem with the wifi signal during our stay.

Good Location For Visting Cotswolds

There has been quite a bit of work carried out since our visit last year. On check in the warden was so enthusiastic about the changes. Throughout our stay we found all the wardens very helpful and hard working. With the new hard standing gravel there was no problem in pegging out the awning. They are in the process of renewing the steps to the upper levels. Despite these improvements there are signs that investment is needed in refurbishing the toilets and showers. As an example in one of the gents showers a tile at the base is shattered which was clearly letting water in behind it. Also the plastic tile trim is broken in the shower basin which could easy cut a persons foot. This has to be balanced with the fact that the toilets and showers are kept very clean by the wardens. The site has a silver WiFi rating, but the WiFi on site was beyond terrible. Trying to log in was a nightmare when eventually the device would pick up the WiFi signal it would not log in. When I eventually managed to log in it kept constantly dropping the signal this was at all times of the day, evening and night so it was not due to excessive usage by others. For phone signals we managed just to get a 3G signal with Three. However with EE at times we couldn't get a good enough signal to make a phone call. I have contacted the Club and suggested that they install 3G and 4G mobile phone boosters at this and other sites - the cost of this is minimal. The very small dog exercise area is looking more like a rubbish dumping area. A lot of rubble has been put on the ground it looks very uncared for. If you want a reasonable dog walk turn left outside the main entrance, go under the bridge (take care as no pavement), then turn left along the footpath. Continue along the footpath till you reach a road (Childswickham Road) then turn left and after a few yards cross the road onto the continuation of the footpath. This will take you to the village of Childswickham with a nice pub (but they are extending it so building work in the beer garden in progress). It's easy to cut this short and walk through a Leedons Residential and Holiday Park and return back to the site on the road. Broadway Village is lovely and a walk up to Broadway Tower (and it cafe) is well worth the effort. This used to be a very quiet site but we have noticed an increase in traffic noise, motor cycles, on at the rear of the site from Childswickham Road. We may return but will be using this as a one/two night stop over site.

Recent trip

Just returned from this site in Broadway. Ground is well looked after, super pitches excellent, and staff great. However the showers and toilets need cleaned more frequently, twice out of 3 days the Gents facilities in the Goods Yard left a lot to be desired. If only they had mops available this would have helped and maybe make people clean up after them. Dog walk could do with being a bit larger. Good location easy walk into Broadway. Thanks to Warden who helped us with a water problem in our Motorhome

Dog walk is a joke, to many rules concerning dogs, no washing privacy cubicle in goods shed men's toilet facilities, doesn't seem to be a dog friendly site

A good site, great for Broadway & the Cotswolds

We stayed here for 3 nights in June 2017. It's a good site & all pitches are hardstanding, some with water on pitch. The site was full when we stayed but didn't feel noisy and no queuing for the showers.The shower block was clean and the usual club standard. A plus for us is that each pitch has T/V hook up on the bollard so you get crystal clear T/V. The lovely village of Broadway is a short 15 minute walk away which is flat with a good footpath, at Broadway there is an excellent Budgens supermarket where you can stock up with everything. One negative is the dog walk area which is nothing more than a small piece of scrub. Our pitch was away from the road, but those close to reception might get some road noise. There was no kids play area which didn't bother us. We will return to this site and can recommend it.

Comment from The Club

Many thanks for leaving a review and we are pleased you enjoyed your stay. We just wanted to let you know for future reference, there is a children's playground at Broadway which has recently been redeveloped. Thanks again for leaving a review and the site staff hope to greet you again on site in the future.

Excellent site... We will definitely return.

This site is one of the best we have stayed at. The pitches are of a good size, the whole site is clean organised and more importantly it is sited in one of the most scenic parts of the country. The facilities were excellent: eg showers, WC laundry and wash up area were immaculate and the staff were very helpful and professional. Being so close to picturesque Broadway was a bonus, we enjoyed a short stroll into the town. Well done all for maintaining such a great site - we can’t wait to return.

All is not so good!

Reviews are very easy to write when all seems well and some of these over complimentary comments do nothing to improve a site. In this case, do you like " Jumbo" speed ramps which now prolifirite on this site - rocking car and van - disturbing contents- all for " your safety". This phrase dominates the regimented regime on notices around the site or is it safety for the Club against any potential litigation? You decide ! We shall avoid in future. No doubt the self styled "Team" will say good riddance!

Comment from the Club

Thank you for your feedback and we just wanted to give further information on speed humps on Club Sites. The Club use speed humps on certain Club Sites as our sites are a combination of roads and pedestrian areas all using the same space which inevitably gives rise to risks to pedestrians and especially to children who think it is a safe environment in which to play. The Club has to take steps to minimise the risk of vehicle/pedestrian and vehicle/vehicle accidents for the safety of all and to meet its legal obligations. Speed humps are just one of the steps we take to reduce the risk, but they are perhaps the most obvious one. We use them for the same reason that the authorities use them on our roads – they are very effective in enforcing the speeds set to reduce the risk, and often terrible consequences, of accidents. On our sites, we set the speed limit at 5 mph for good reason - and we only install speed humps where our experience shows that drivers persistently exceed this limit.

At various times, we have tried every method for controlling speed on site, but unfortunately, no matter what we have tried, drivers still exceed the 5 mph limit. We know speed humps present some additional issues for caravans, but they remain the most effective method of slowing everyone who speeds down. If taken at the correct speed of 5 mph or less they should not cause any damage to a vehicle or caravan.
