 I spent one night here earlier this month, having cycled from Oxford.

The campsite is tucked away (locals 3 miles away did not know of its existence)on the edge of the Cotswolds.

Staff were very friendly, shower and toilet areas were clean and tidy and there is another indoor area for washing clothes and washing up.

As a touring cyclist, I paid £10 (I think it should have been a bit more, but due to the recent heavy rains, the ground was a bit soft / slightly waterlogged).

One thing to bear in mind - the nearest shops are a few miles away - not too bad if you are driving, but bad news if you cycle there and find nothing to eat or drink nearby (I did phone up a few days before and planned my route through Wooton-under-Edge).

If you are a very light sleeper, you may hear the M5 and rail-line.

 We have been regular visitors to hogstown for several years now, we have always found the site very clean and tidy. The grass is always immaculately cut and would put some larger more expensive campsites we have visited to shame. Shower block is always well kept and clean. Plenty of paper towels. They always give you a warm welcome. And any advice you may need about the area they are always happy to help. Washing up area is maintained well and equipped with washing machines and dryer. And books to borrow while you wait for your clothes!

The play area is perfect for the younger children and the safety aspect of the automatic password protected gate has got to be paramount for anyone with children and peace of mind.

Dogs are welcome and there are some lovely areas to walk locally. The free range chickens which wander around supply delicious eggs which can be purchased daily.

Also for anyone with a dog we have found a nice pub in Slimbridge called the Tudor arms which allows dogs in while you have a meal which is always good. We are looking forward to visiting Hogsdown again over the coming months

 This was a lovely site.

The reviews I had read were of chickens and the reason why we had chosen this one over others in the area and we had our first feathered friend helping to pitch the tent

It was the day of the royal wedding and we'd been told they would squeeze us in, but there was plenty of space.

The toilets were clean and enough loos so no queue's

There were 3 showers with push button which were lovely and warm (perfect temp for me)

There was an indoor pot wash but as only stopped overnight we didn't eat at camp. This room also housed the washing machine and drier.

The playground was quite nice and was suitable for primary and even middle school children.

One or two of the children weren't so nice, but a few girls were lovely and very supportive of my disabled daughter, which really made it worth while.

The owners were nice and friendly.

The site is secured by an electric gate that closes automatically behind you, and you are given the security code on arrival.

We had a drive out to find somewhere to eat and with it being a special day we found most places closed so ended up at Tesco's in Bristol.

There are some beautiful churches in the area and we had lunch in a local pub (local I mean within car driving distance)

It is close enough to the motorway to make it a worthy overnight stopping point as part of a long journey, but it isn't right on top of it that you can hear it. We did hear a train or two though as it isn't too far from a railway line.

I would recommend this place to those who are going to stay in the area.

 Only stayed here for one night after driving down from North Yorkshire and needed to be close to M5 motorway. We wanted somewhere near Bristol to visit relatives on our way to Devon but would definitely go back if staying in the area. Plenty of space, excellent facilities, lovely people (Jenny and Neville) and fresh eggs from free range chickens all around you!

Reviewer: Ash123 5 reviews from this member

 This site is friendly and quiet, we only stayed one night using it as a stopover on the way from Lancashire to Dorset. Would definitely use again. Conveniently near the M6 but not too near. The pitches allocated are massive. We were given a pitch around the slide/climbing frame as we had young children with us. The toilet block is clean. Cannot comment on the showers as not used. The kids loved seeing the hens around the site, which caused no problem. There is a gate operated by a code which made us feel secure.

 Just come back from 2 days here - and had a lovely time!

The motorway and trains not a problem at all - neither are the chickens.

Only a couple of people there on sat night and then had the whole field to ourselves last night. Showers and toilets fine.

Only 25 mins from where we live so we will return. A good simple campsite where you can sit back and forget about the world!

Reviewer: Gitta 21 reviews from this member

 Stayed there two nights as we were going to a wedding at Tortworth Court. Lovely site, nice and level for a motorhome. Lady running the site very friendly and helpful, assisted with getting us the name of a local taxi firm.

Great play area: our grandson would have loved it. Only comment is that shower block could do with a bit of an update but water was nice and hot and it was clean. The chickens, trains and motorway were not a problem. Would definitely stay there again.

Reviewer: Jill and sid 23 reviews from this member

 We spent last weekend at Hogsdown Farm and found it to be worthy winner of our campsite of the year. Flat pitches, great location with plenty to do in the area. The hot water was somewhat tepid and the chickens could be a problem on some of the fields. We found a corner of the small camping field to be ideal. Sure you can hear the M5 and passing trains, but just think waterfall. The lack of light pollution makes for a great night sky.

At £26 for a two night stay, 2 adults and one child was very reasonable. The kids seemed to enjoy the play area and the lady owner was helpful enough. There is a coded security gate and the deep pond is fenced off.

We visited Slimbridge and Dursley- Ye old Spot- best UK pub 2007 is worth a visit. We only scratched the surface. Would return. 


Date of Visit: July 2009 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Feezee 12 reviews from this member

 We'd only ever been to one other campsite with a touring caravan and we were given a reasonably warm welcome by the owner. She helped us park up on our grass pitch (there are hard pitches too) and talked through facilities etc.

The site is perfect if you have kids. Informal pitches without constraints of hedges etc and you can park up in view of a small play area/climbing frame for kids. We went with a toddler.

The roaming chickens were fine as long as you didn't feed them, and the whole coutry feel was lovely.

It rained nearly all day for one day of our weekend visit. This meant that although they had cut the grass they had not collected it and therefore damp soggy grass got everywhere. The shower/toilet blocks were clean apart from the damp grass all over the floor. And the fact that there was nowhere to stand that was clean and dry in the shower cubicle meant that there was grass everywhere and you never really got it off your feet/socks/toes/ shoes.

Otherwise, I would say that we enjoyed it and our toddler loved it! We will return - hoping that with better weather the approach to grass collection won't make that much difference.

Reviewer: Rich+sally 2 reviews from this member

 Relaxed campsite with country feel. Chickens join you for breakfast! Showers not very powerful and temperature sometimes very hot but generally clean and acceptable. Security good with electric gate requiring code for exit and entry. From the M5 travelling north, internet directions take you off on the services and through a private road - be aware. Overall we'll be returning very soon!
