 Contrary to the other posts for this site, we found it to be very clean and very tidy. The rules are just common sense and decency and if you live your life with the comfort of others in mind, you won't even notice that there are any rules.
The toilets are spotless as are all of the facilities and there is a curtain between the shower and where you get dried (a very simple concept that other campsites would be wise to follow). If you are travelling with small children you will be glad to know that there is also a bath in all of the toilet blocks.
There are only 2 things that I found wrong with this site: you have to drive though an industrial estate to get to it, and they have a code entry system to the toilet block - this was not easy to remember and very fiddly to enter.
All things considered, I would stay here again.

I would agree and disagree with some of the comments made.
Good points :
Good size pitches clearly laid out
Excellent hygiene all around the site
Beautiful location next to river - lots of greenery
Easy walking distance to town centre & Superm'kt
Not so good points :
Some areas have road noise from the A40
Toilet block door code is indeed a pain !
Although more expensive than some other sites, I believe that you get what you pay for, and this site is good value for money.

Great site clean, and no noisy kids ( The children that were there were well behaved!) Toilets were very clean. Site is very convenient to shops and to Ross. Staff very pleasant. Entrance to site is via an Industrial estate – that is the only downside to this site.

Having read previous reviews, I was really worried about what to expect. The Camp site is spotlessly clean, with good toilets, laundry and washing up areas. The toilets have a number coded lock which was a pain at times. There are no other facilities on site other than a basic play area for kids. The entrance is quite off putting but once inside it is a really lovely place. The traffic from the main road and the dogs at a nearby kennel can hardly be heard (we were in a tent).
My only gripe was the cost. I have never known a camp site charge for so many different things. Pitch £9 per night, electrics £3 per night, a per person charge of £3 per night for adults and a charge for children too. A £3 charge per night for an awning or day tent and a £3 per person per night charge for any visitors plus if visitors bring their car on site it's another £3 - absolutely absurd pricing policy and that is the only reason we wouldn't go again.
Location, despite being in a town was first class. Easy walking distance to a supermarket and good quality pubs nearby but nearly £20 a night for a tent pitch for 2 people with electrics and one dog is just not on. Sorry, I tried to open minded!

Arrived the second week of the school Easter holidays and we were practically the only people on the site, not very good for the kids to make friends but at £30 a night(pitch, awning, electric, 2 adults and 4 kids) who can blame people for staying away at such costs. Met by a friendly site manager who was very helpful, could not fault him.
Toilet/shower block lights were on a timer so if you showered too long or had to fill the bath, the lights went out before you were finished, also there was no heating in the toilet/shower block and considering the temperature was freezing a couple of nights, this made for uncomfortable trips to the loo or shower, seemed to be penny pinching to me.
The prices didnt appear to be aimed at families(no family deals), kids seem to be more of a hinderence to them with no ball games outside the play area, no bikes for kids, yet its ok for adults. The play area had no swings and seemed very basic.
Any visitors to us on the site had to watch their backs as the site has been well known to charge £3 for a visitor and £3 for a car, however, this did not happen and we had many visitors.
Other than that, the site is well maintained and clean with morrisons being a couple of minutes walk and the the rest of the town in easy access.
I give it a thumbs up to the location and cleanliness and a thumbs down to the prices, its unfriendliness to families and to inadequate heating(if any) and lighting in the toilet block.

Many thanks for such an excellent site. I can only give praise for the wonderful welcome that has been given to my husband and myself over and over for the last four years since finding this site. I must agree that the entrance to the site is off putting but applaud the owners and the wardens for their hospitality and
helpfulness once inside. Perhaps there should be a 'Whingers Only'caravan site where the intolerant can amuse each other. The rules and regulations are what makes this site such a prestigious place. The cleanliness is second to none. Litter you will never see,you wont get involved in a collision with a bicycle and as for peaceful fishing,even Matt Hayes would be satisfied. So all intolerant amuse each other elsewhere.

With reference to the negative views regarding the owners insistance on keeping to his rules. It is precisely the insistance that maintains the attraction of the site to people like myself who do not want to have other peoples kids, dogs, noise etc. etc. spoiling the peace and tranquility of their holiday. I am quite prepared to pay the premium for the privilege.
My advice to those that believe that the rules don't apply to them or their unruly offspring and are oblivious to the comfort of others is to go and stay in a field!

Had good stay in the end. We pitched up our tent at the far end but then discovered we were just next door to very main road. Second day we moved lock stock and barrel near to the gate. Much quieter and a lovely site. Very nicely kept, albeit that there are lots of rules and notices to back this up.
A lovely mown field next to the lake and fed the ducks every morning.
We had to pay an extra £9 because grandad came to tea and grandma stayed the night. Seemed rather steep on top of the £15 per night. But worth it.
So, just don't look at the industrial estate on the way in, do all your shopping at the brand new Morrisons just down the road, make sure you are at the end near the play area, enjoy the facilities, don't break any of the rules and you will have a lovely time!

Well, what to say! It is so unfortunate that people only make their opinions known when they have something bad to say.
This is a top class site – as reflected by its 5 star rating. The majority of its visitors (like ourselves) return year on year which speaks volumes in itself.
The owners and wardens work extremely hard to maintain the facilities and surroundings to a high standard. This is a family run business, we are always greeted warmly and help is always on hand should you require it.
Fishing costs £6.50 for a day – hardly expensive for the use of a well maintained, well stocked lake!
There are site rules and thankfully, these are imposed. Children are not allowed to cycle on the site, but that is for obvious safety reasons. There are abundant cycle paths both in Ross town and the surrounding Forest of Dean.
The site does not accept large group bookings or commercial vans – again, personally I am glad these rules are enforced.
We recommend this site over and over and will continue to do so!

As with the other comments, dont let the entrance put you off, once inside it is an oasis of tranquility. First class site,s hower blocks spotless, pubs within a couple of minutes walk (Weatherspoons) and restaurants. We encountered no problems with anyone. GO AND ENJOY!

We were a bit worried about this site after reading some of the reviews. How wrong we were! After approaching through the industrial site, the contrast is outstanding. We were given a warm welcome at reception and chose a site close to the washroom area.
Washrooms are warm, clean and have every facility, including a bath. Although you are a five minute walk from Ross town centre, when you are on site all you can see are trees and mountains.
We were not conscious of dogs barking or traffic noise and thoroughly enjoyed our stay, in fact we are going back soon and can recommend it as an excellent site for tents, caravans and motohomes.

Well well well...
No ifs, no buts, no exceptions - this is THE place to go.
I'm not even going to say "if you like such and such..." because believe me, you have to love this place. It has everything.
We arrived under a heavy shower and the modern reception block gave us shelter. But it was the guys running the place who started the sun shining again - they're warm, knowledgeable and delighted to give you tips on any aspect of your holiday.
The site is embraced by nature. There's a beautiful little walk by a river on one side, and trees abound. One tip - don't do as we did and go park your van or tent towards the back of the far field, close to the toilet block; the kennels nearby, out of sight, would put earplugs out of business - a minor worry - we could have moved.
Aside from the rowdy canines, Broadmeadow's location simply, in my opinion, cannot be bettered. A short walk takes you into the town centre, full of nice pubs and amenities (go to the Chinese banquet opposite the Wetherspoons, I think that's the Mail Rooms, the Chinese, again, I think is the Canberra)) while only slightly further afield you'll find yourself in some of the sweetest countryside in the 'Counties.
Safeways is virtually next door, which is great, but the campsite revels in its seclusion. The industrial estate in which it is squarely placed isn't as you would imagine, it's quiet and in any case, Broadmeadow is shrouded from all that in its own little country park.

Don't let the location of this site put you off. You have to drive through an industrial estate, past the local tip and through a dusty coach repair yard!! but once through the barriers this is an oasis of peace and beauty.
Excellent showers/toilets etc and the staff are really friendly.
Easy walking distance to the lovely town of Ross and the local Safeway.
Only grumble was the malard duck "quack, quacking" under our van at 3am!! But thats what you get for camping next to a lovely lake.
Recommend it to anyone and will be going back next month as it is an ideal stopping point on the way to Wales.

My heart dropped following the signs through an industrial estate and dusty bus scrap yard, but the site itself was very smart and well presented. A great deal of time has been spent on this site and it is very smart. If you want a location a short walk from a town centre then this is ideal. Take ear plugs for the evening, the car noise is very evident, and some local guard dogs know how to wake you up.

As novices to camping it was reassuring to stay at this site with its excellent facilities and high standards of cleanliness. Only a short walk from the town centre and local supermarket. Only comment was the noise - I'm not sure whether there is a local kennels nearby but there was a lot of barking and howling during the night! Would definitely use again.
