Very simply the site is in a beautiful location, well presented and happy staff. Many things to do around the area and on our last visit we had superb weather to cap it all.

We recently stayed at this site over the May Bank Holiday weekend. The site was fully booked, but despite this, there wasn't a feeling of being squashed-in! There is plenty to do and see in the local area, in particular the nearby towns of Malvern, Tewksbury and Upton-upon-Severn are worth visiting. Myself, my Wife and two children thoroughly enjoy staying at this site. This was our second visit to this site, but won't be our last!

Good site, well kept, friendly staff

My husband and I just spent 3 nights at this site after visiting Upton Folk Festival. The site is well kept and the staff were friendly and helpful. Toilet/shower blocks were kept clean but are looking a bit tired and could maybe do with an upgrade. The site was not full so did not feel crowded, though I suspect it could when all the pitches are occupied. There are no dividing hedges between the pitches so you would be lined up in rows. The site was mostly peaceful but for the almost constant daytime noise of the tractor going round mowing. I realise this is a dilemma - people like neatly mowed grass and it will insist on growing so it has to be cut. It just seemed that every time I settled down in the sunshine with my lunch or a drink, the roar of the tractor would start up. It was nice when it stopped though. The bus service that is advertised is a great bonus. The site office lent us a bus timetable. You turn right out of the site entrance and the bus stop to Worcester is only 400 yards along the footpath on the right. If you want to travel in the direction of Tewkesbury you have to wait on the other side of the road in front of a house. There is no bus stop sign and it is confusing. The timetable on the Bus Stop on the Worcester side of the road states that buses to Worcester stop Adjacent to Blackmoor End Caravan Site and then says buses for Tewkesbury stop Opposite Blackmoor End Caravan Site. We were confused as to where we had to stand so went to wait opposite the site entrance. Needless to say, despite our waving arms, the bus went sailing past without stopping. Pity as we would have liked to have done that trip. The following day we had a great day out in Worcester visiting the Cathedral, Tudor House Museum and the Guild Hall - all free of charge to enter. The bus fare was £5.00 for me and my husband was able to use his bus pass. That was probably cheaper than a car park (not that motorhomes can park in Worcester anyway) so well worthwhile. Just remember that the bus stops are opposite each other even though there is no bus stop sign on the other side of the road.

Malvern Hills in April

This site has such potential and the new wardens - Jez and Heather - are friendly and helpful, and seem very keen to make improvements. The entrance road is shared with the Camping and Caravanning club-site and this road is in need of repair. The signage at the entrance to the road could also be improved. Coming from the direction of Hanley Swan, the only sign visible is the one to the Camping and Caravanning site. The site feels very spacious at this time of year, although I suspect that it will feel more crowded once the grass pitches are opened after the first May Day Bank Holiday weekend. Overall, a lovely site - well placed for visiting Tewkesbury, Ledbury and Worcester. We would very much like to return. It would be good to see some serviced pitches introduced.

Time for some TLC?

This is potentially a superb site. The location is lovely, it’s peaceful and there is a delightful sense of space. However, at the moment a gem it is not, though hidden it certainly is, if you arrive from the ‘wrong’ direction and don’t know that it actually adjoins the C&CC site. The ‘other’ club proudly announces its presence with a large and easily visible (from both directions) sign, but the Caravan & Motorhome Club seems to be rather coy about admitting it’s there. And then there’s the access roads which are full of potholes, and the hard standing pitches which look as if the last time they saw better days was when the old king died. The whole place has a tired and worn look to it. Hence the title of my review. Time, I think, for the club to put its hand in its pocket and make this site into the gem it deserves to be. Until it does, when I’m next in the area I shall take the first turning - into the C&CC site. That said, the welcome was warm and the wardens both friendly and helpful.

first caravan holiday

Our first ever trip with our first ever caravan. Fanatic welcome, very informative and understand that we were newbie. Great site and facilities, our young son loved the play area and the toured explorer trail. Great location and plenty to keep both parents and child happy. Will highly recommend and will be back.

Good site, excellent female staff, but beware of the Corporal.

Good site well worth a visit. The Ladies on reception were really nice and welcoming. Unfortunately our dog jumped out of the car whilst I was setting up and I hadn't noticed. The dog was never more than a few metres away. Later when I called at reception to collect the pass key a male member of staff, in front of others, deliberately tried to embarrass me regarding keeping my dog on a lead. Seeing a funny side he reminded me of the old films showing army corporals of the 1950s but a little courtesy whilst being told off would have been more appropriate and acceptable. As stated a good site but beware of doing anything wrong.

The Malvern Hills in the Snow

We visited this site in order to walk the length of the Malvern Hills, and what a surprise on the morning of our walk the winter snows had fallen carpeting the site in a blanket of white. It was such a wonderful surprise. We still did our walk on both the Sat and Sun of our trip. The site itself looked spectacular, and the site staff were out and about making sure that important area's were kept clear in order to avoid accidents etc. What a great trip, with so much to recommend.

March 2018 - Week of walking

We arrived Tuesday 20th; departing Saturday 24th March 2018. This is an excellent site with good clean facilities. It was quiet when we arrived and filled up a bit but was no more than half full when we left. it is less than 10 minutes drive to the parking for the hills and we were blessed with good weather to allow us to walk extensively along and around the ridges. On the one grey day we experienced, we ventured into Hereford to visit the city and the weeping window poppies display at the Cathedral (30 minutes drive away.) It is a large site with plenty of spaces both hardstanding and grass, there are plenty of facilities available across the site. The staff were brilliant and made it a very welcoming experience. We would definitely consider visiting this site again

From a Guide leader

We stayed here in October and had a lovely week. The site was quiet in the week but almost full at the weekend. The grass pitches had been closed for the end of season. I was disappointed to read the reviews from the members complaining about the Guide event taking place. As an ex Guider I know that the last thing we want to do as an organisation is upset people. I spoke to the wardens about it and was told it was one weekend and the event was between 9am and 4pm. The centre is Worcestershire Guiding centre and is a beautifully appointed place which is used by the organisation throughout the year I believe. (I have no connection with Worcestershire Guide Association). In the end its kids enjoying themselves instead of glued to screens all day. We enjoyed our stay especially the suicidal golden pheasant whose mission in life was to get as close to our Westie, Robbie as possible.
