Superb location in the park and near Cirencester, but pitches not ideal

The location within Cirencester Park gives free access to this very large delightful estate, yet it is only a 15 minute walk into vibrant and upmarket Cirencester. The town centre 'superstore' is Waitrose, and the markets outside the church are the most impressive we have ever visited. The Corinium Museum was wonderful, with so many Roman and earlier artefacts, including large mosaics, all discovered in the local area. We also enjoyed walking in the Abbey Grounds. The site itself is large, and maintained to a good standard. The main dissatisfaction for us was the shape of the hardstanding pitches, too narrow to park a car beside the caravan, let alone put up an awning, which we didn't. It meant parking the car across the front of the pitch, difficult if there was a pitch directly opposite, also with a car in front.. Also all the pitches we could see were quite sloping by club site standards, so every outfit needed levelling blocks. Comments have been made about the narrow approach road with its boulders; I guess there may be tensions between the Club and the College, who have planted wildlife borders along it. As well as really enjoying Cirencester, we spent some time in Stroud, which provides a very interesting contrast to Cirencester, and paid a short visit to Minchinhampton.
