Autumn Visit

We like visiting the Tewkesbury area and have stayed on the site several times. On this visit we chose a non awning multi-surface pitch but found the double pegging system awkward finding only a short space to step onto outside our entrance door but a large empty space on the other side. Euro Vans with doors on the opposite side fair better, it seems a strange use of space more suitable for a car and caravan but even then not very accommodating. Quick entry to site with the new prepaid booking system, given a site map on entry but not the usual local and emergency information.

Lovely site but TV reception not good on this visit

Stopped at the Abbey Club Site previous years with good TV reception but not this time. We were on pitch 84 fully serviced and previous visit other years we have used adjacent fully serviced pitches. This time the TV reception was terrible and most of the time just breaking up. Perhaps time for a site system like many others and it certainly costs enough. The staff are great and very helpful. Facilities are super clean and warm.

Pleasant Few Days with reservations

Just returned from the site after a 5 day stay. We have been members for 40 years and probably stayed on the site about 35 times starting in 1983 when it was just a field with a wooden hut for an office and two toilet blocks. In those days it was still a very busy site and very pleasant. Over the years there have been changes but not in our opinion for the better. I think it is a classic example of how the Club uses it as a profit centre and recognises it can make a lot of money if you pack the outfits in. It feels more like a parking lot than a nice caravan site. Toilet Block is superb now, but general maintenance needs more care. The grass around Pitch 76 has not been cut for some time. It is full of dandelions and the tree/bush vegetation is badly maintained. Needs more money spending to keep it looking nice as well as acting as a 'carbon catch'. Pitch 76 has LOUSY TELEVISION RECEPTION (shielded by toilet block). So paying £32.80 per night is NOT GOOD VALUE. Another example of how the club is using the 'club status' as a tax avoidance measure. When site was re-vamped it should have included TV on the bollards.

A favourite site

Tewkesbury is a beautiful and interesting place to visit. We've been many times, and the campsite is perfect. Friendly, helpful staff, spotless facilities. It's almost worth coming just for a really good shower!

Here again.

Easy to find and nice wide entrance. Good to pick pitch then pay.only need to climb steps once !! Grass which makes a nice change.poor access to good toilet block.one lot steps and one ramp.each end of the balcony. Water collects so care needed. Really inconsiderate couple 2 evenings sat outside with small yapping dog.I was just going to go over and comment when someone else did.good job or I might have told them what I thought of them and their dog !! Site handy for town and buses. Shrubbery looking mess in places.could do with a tidy up before it all starts growing again. As with all sites getting expensive .especially when we pay annual membership as well.

Revelation!

We have just spent a few days at this site, as our daughter was singing with her choir - visiting from Kings Lynn - in the Abbey. The site is just a few minutes walk from the abbey and the beautiful town of Tewkesbury. The site is only a few minutes from the M5, so is easy to get at, and I would guess is a great stopover site for those travelling to or from the west country. Although it was fully booked when we were there, the site still felt peaceful and quiet. The site is kept spotlessly clean and is regularly patrolled by wardens. The staff are without exception friendly and helpful. The facilities are very modern and clean and I was impressed by the plentiful hot water in the showers. Until recently, I hadn't set foot in a caravan since I was a child. Crikey, things have moved on! Cold, wet, miserable holidays on the Isle of Wight in grotty fixed caravans had, I thought, marked me for life - Tewkesbury Abbey Club Campsite has been a revelation.This caravanning lark's not so bad, after all!

Great location

What a lovely well kept site. We booked it as a stop over from travelling to Cornwall with 3 children and we only regretted not booking longer to stay there. The toilets were probably the cleanest of all the sites we've stayed on. There were some giant games for the children to play near reception which the children loved and a big public park and playing field just outside of the site . Lovely view of the Abbey on an evening. The wardens were very friendly and welcoming and we will definitely be coming back.

Excellent site in the heart of England handy for an overnight stop-over or longer break.

This well kept site in the shadow of Tewkesbury Abbey is ideal for walks through the lovely medieval town and along the river banks. The wardens are friendly and efficient and maintain the site well, with the famous flowers at the entrance.
