1st time staying at this site. Used it as our base for visiting The Festival of the Horse at Gatcombe Park which is only a short easy drive away. Facilities where excellent. The staff very pleasant and our dogs where most impressed with the secure field they had for there use.
great location
cirencester has some wonderful events in its market place with regular craft fairs too in town hall, great eateries, pubs etc and so many dog friendly and great food, the park is lovely although some areas are now fenced off, clean and well maintained site

Great location and site
Site is large but well spaced, good choice of hard and grass pitches. Nice walk into Cirencester through Bathurst estate, it shuts at 5pm but walk in along road is easy. We used site vendor 'Pizza Alfresco' on the Thursday night, the pizzas are excellent and run by a friendly couple. There is a nice walk via Bathurst park to Stratton then into Cirencester. There always seems to be something going on in the market square. There was live music, beer and food on the Saturday night.
Fabulous stay.
Second time at this lovely site ,great walk into Cirencester via the Bath Hurst estate ,staff warm and friendly and great check in ,even though a big site very peaceful and pitches well laid out and very clean facilities ,will be back soon.
Cirencester Park Club Campsite
Stayed at this wonderful site a number of times and "Yes" have to agree with the other comments regarding the approach road, but if taken carefully shouldn't give too much of a problem. Once the site is reached it's really worth the slight inconvenience. It's a large site but never seems like it as all the pitches are arranged in their own little enclaves with ample room for all. The facilities are immaculate and the wardens do a fantastic job of ensuring they are kept to a very high standard. The only occasion I experienced anything that impacted on the cleanliness was when there was quite a mess in the "Gents" but in transpired that this was caused by some exuberant children, but even in this case the wardens attended to it promptly and without any fuss. Top marks to you guys. I personally don't think that enough people appreciate the tireless work these wardens do to make sure that their visitors have the best stay possible.
The other fantastic thing about this park is its location to Cirencester. You can easily walk into the beautiful Cotswold Town either through Bathurst Park, which I would highly recommend, or by road, and once you do eventually tear yourself away on most nights of the week Pop-Up Food Vendors are awaiting you on site. This is one of the best club sites I have stayed at
Stop over
Used as a one night stop over. Very pleasant greeting at reception and site very good standard although also very busy. Cirencester is walkable through the park and also via the footpaths on the road in a short time. Many different pubs/bars and restaurants to choose from.
Great park, shame the pre 1pm brigade ruin your exit
Spent 3 lovely days here, and also enjoyed the Cotswold Show right next door.
Cannot fault the site in any way, they even have different food vendors 6 days a week.
There was some loud music from a nearby building, I am guessing the college or agricultural university on Saturday night until around 12am, but not enough to prevent sleep.
The negative I have is with other members who arrive at this site pre 1pm (11:53) to be precise.
The gentleman parked his car and van on the entrance road to the site in a passing place, and caused absolute mayhem for any car, caravan or motor home trying to exit the site.
As previously reviewed, the approach to this site is narrow, and has large boulders placed along the road, so any passing has to take place using the passing places provided. Parking in one of these is making a difficult situation near impossible.
I mention this on my review to make other members who are booking here to be aware of the 1pm arrival time, as if you arrive earlier you run the risk of blocking the approach road, or causing damage to your or a members unit.
Shouty man
This is a lovely site, the entrance feels a bit scary with all the boulders lining the single track road but it does ensure you concentrate!
We stayed for two nights, enjoyed a lovely walk with our dogs into Cirencester via the Bathurst estate, really nice and so was the ice cream from a vendor on the estate drive.
Unfortunately when we arrived on the site we joined a queue of about 8 vehicles waiting patiently to enter, we had the encounter with a warden who yelled at the top of his voice " Disco move up". Well my wife was waiting in the car and ready to move when possible due to the line of vehicles waiting. As she had no where to go the yelling was unnecessary rudeness. Shouty man appeared in the panic of wardens to clear the queue, luckily another warden with logic identified the issue and directed my wife to the 'Keep Clear" lane to assist with the vehicle congestion. Not a nice welcome from shouty man. the ret of our stay was lovely and we did not see or hear of him again.
Great Site
Just had a two night stay on this visit but we will visit again. Easy walking access into Cirencester which is a lovely town. There is lots of walking in Cirencester Park itself too. Had expected some traffic noise but didn't notice it at all. Facilities all clean and stocked, rubbish emptied regularly. If you like to do Park Runs there is one a few minutes walk/run from the site.

Inconsiderate
We've been to this site a number of times unfortunately there are some members who consistently walk across your pitch whilst your having a meal or a conversation with friends
We've only had this issue at this site.
