Court Farm Camping

You can pitch a tent or park a touring caravan in the kind of open space you'd naturally expect on a working farm. The real advantage of staying here is the access it gives you. Gloucester is within easy reach, and it's worth a day trip for its impressive cathedral and the Docks area, which has been redeveloped into a genuinely lively destination with plenty to explore. Cheltenham is equally close but feels quite different—Regency architecture, cultural events, antique shops, and good restaurants give it a more refined atmosphere. If you prefer countryside to urban exploring, the northern Cotswolds hills essentially begin on your doorstep, with plenty of walking and cycling routes threading through the region. You can also drive the quiet lanes between smaller villages to discover the area's calmer side. Many visitors find this campsite works best as an evening retreat rather than a place where you'd want to stay put all day. You venture out to explore during daylight hours, then return to somewhere peaceful when night falls—which is exactly what a good base camp should do.
