First Visit to Cirencester Park

1st visit to Cirencester Park Initially arriving at the site we were greeted by a warden and directed to a place in the queue for check in. We were given comprehensive information and invited to choose a pitch following the route marked on the map. Having looked at the hard standing pitches, noting how close they seemed to be to each other and how crowded the area was with awnings and cars we ventured to the grass areas. This area suited and we pitched our motorhome with relative ease the site being flat. This CCS is one of the largest we have encountered on our stays, we would not want to visit here in the school holidays feeling that it would be over crowded and busy. (A rough calculation could find the site holding in excess of 800 or more people in the height of summer). Then add the dogs as well, this being a very popular choice to come and most owners seeming to have 2 or more per outfit at the time of our visit. The site is in an extensive private estate owned by the Earl of Bathurst and is clearly well cared for and very private. The whole area is beautiful and the walk into Cirencester is a delight, being able to stroll through the peaceful grounds between 8am and 5pm each day. Alternative route is via road outside of these hours or if using a car, cycle or wanting to walk that way instead. (Either way,will take about 30 minutes walking.) We visited this site on our way from the Midlands to the West Country and there is clearly a lot to see and do in the area. The Wardens have a huge task in the up keep of this site as it is large, the 2 facilities blocks are of the usual standard expected, however there was a problem with there not being any flow of water through the showers in the 2nd block during our stay.This was rectified, although water flow remained poor in my opinion. It is likely we shall make a return visit as the site is en route and convenient for our purpose. The fish and chip van called as advertised on Saturday from 5pm, not the best we have tasted but acceptable. Probably wouldn't bother with again. All in all a pleasant trip.
