 Very nice site. Lovely welcome from Liz the owner. Good pub, with a nice atmosphere.
Easy walk into Upton on Severn, not much difference between walking the main road and cutting through the fields. Everyone on site seemed friendly.
Will definitely visit again.

An excellent site at bag of a lovely pub with great manager with great staff. Toilets and showers lovely and clean.
Only issue were some inconsiderate dog owners but it's understandable they can't be monitored all the time. Definitely go again soon.
Fees are good, £10 and £15 with hook up. Full marks.

We have just stayed at the Drum & Monkey for a few nights after reading their good reviews. Sorry to say we were not very impressed with site. Very uneven ground.
Grass had just been cut so the grass was every where, all through awning and in van. As for the toilet block, please take flip flops if you intend to use the showers, as hard plastic: what ever it was hurts the bottom of your feet.
Chemical waste area was very poor, it was in the hedge row, as was one of the drinking water taps. Nobody controlled their dogs either, all let loose to do what ever.

I stayed at this site over the bank holiday weekend.
Our little group of campers could corral nicely, without being ordered to be on specific pitches (ala caravan club stalag). Those of our group that needed hookup, got it. We were near to the 'new' toilet/shower block. I was paying £10/night for my tent, with free use of showers and wash-up area.
The camping area is at the rear of the pub, with easy access for me and my Outwell Fusion 300, up to Big Marks' american mansion on wheels and Guzzis' Airstream caravan.
The pub and site is run by one lady, so she isn't always there to give you warm welcome. However, the pub has great ales and cyder. They also do fantastic meals. Can't wait to go there again.

This site is a great one to stay at, Liz and her staff plus the locals gave all of us a very warm welcome on each visit to the pub. We were a group of three couples all in touring vans and we had a weeks stay.
The site was not crowded and we had a pleasant time exploring the area. We did see couples with children who also seemed to be enjoying the site.
The food served at the pub was great so good in fact we invited more friends to join us one evening for a meal, they are now spreading the word in their area.
Upton on Severn is interesting with more quaint establishments and nice walks along the river, so something for everyone's taste, we would certainly go back.

We booked this site last minute all other local sites were full. The site is behind the drum and monkey pub, easy to find from J 8 on the M5. The instruction board advises prospective campers to call at the pub before pitching, as the pub is only open 12-2. 30 and 6-11 campers need to arrive during these times.
There is a hard standing area behind a building or the open grass site with open views. Only the grass area has EHU. The grass is uneven and leveling blocks will be needed. The toilet block appears fairly new it is fairly clean and basic. The washing up sink is out in the open behind the toilet block. The 6 hook up points are around the edge of the grass area. The water, waste and elsan point are also at the edge of the grass area.
There is a small local road to one side of the field but road noise is not intrusive.
Upton on Severn is a short drive away with bus services to Tewksbury, Worcester and Malvern. There are two small supermarkets, lots of antique shops, riverside cafes and pubs. The site is also convenient for the three counties showground.
The pub serves a typical pub menu.

This was our fourth time visiting the drum and monkey. The new toilet block is a welcome addition, very clean, efficient lighting and background music.
The all grassed site is a little lumpy but well tended and we had no problems with our van. Liz the landlady is a star and the food etc in the pub is wonderful. The site is quiet, just 10 to 15 minute walk to the actual town.
I would definitely recommend this site nice clean and quiet. We are booking again for April and it will definitely not be our last visit this year.

This has to be one of the best of the best sites ever.
Toilets / Showers spotless. They even have clean fresh towels hanging up to dry yourself yes I have never seen this before. Also the heating and radio come on when you enter and water is nice and hot and to top it all the showers are free
The pub itself is also great and the food to die for. To be honest if your in the area and you go else where your a fool

We arrived at the site and were warmly welcomed by barman Paul, who was friendly and informed us where everything was. We were told to pitch where we liked. He told us that if we fancied eating at the pub we could pre-book and he let us take the menu back to the caravan to peruse at our leisure.
Paul also allowed me to pop into the pub for 10 minutes in the afternoon to use the pubs internet connection even though I was not purchasing a drink. Good customer service.
That night, after our friends arrived on site to join us, we went to the pub for a meal. Our friends paid for our meal as a wedding gift, as we had just got married recently and they paid for the best meal we ever had!
The food was delicious, the quality of the food was superb, the portions were just right. The rest of the menu was modestly priced and full of variety.
The waitress service had a personal touch as the lovely barmaid Jules made us feel very special and nothing was too much trouble.
Our group returned to the pub the following night for a drink and we were served by the Landlady, who was very friendly and fun, and ending up sitting with us for late drinks. We had a great night.
After our friends left the site, we returned to the pub on the 4th night of our stay for another meal. We had the same food again as we loved our first meal so much. It was again, just as nice, and Liz the landlady, was a great waitress!
The site is a great base to go and visit local areas. During the day, we visited Upton, Ledbury, Tewkesbury and Gloucester whilst we were there.
The site is easily accessed and whilst on the main road it is just out of the village enough to be quiet and peaceful.
Because we were self contained we did not need to use the shower block so we cannot comment on these facilities.
It seemed as though we spent a lot of our time interacting with the staff/landlady at the Drum & Monkey and we have never felt such a warm welcome at a site we have been to before.
If we lived locally we would be in this pub every week, but as visitors to the area, we will have to resign ourselves to going everytime we visit the area. We will definitely be returning to this site again.
Thanks for a great time - See you in 2016 - Crate and Elaine Carter

Found this site in the Caravan Club 'New Sites' section. The site is lovely - a grassed flat field adjacent to the Drum and Monkey pub. The toilets and shower block were not finished but looked really nice and we were advised they should be ready within days. Beware there are a few lumps and bumps in the grass and care should be taken when siting your caravan.
The pub is a delightful traditional 'olde worlde' building, having been originally established in the 17th Century. The landlady and staff are really friendly and welcoming. The food is delicious and very reasonably priced.
The site is very close to the lovely town of Upton on Severn with its lovely shops, restaurants, etc. Worcester, Gloucester and Tewksbury are all within easy travelling distance and for those who enjoy walking the Malvern foothills are close by. We will definitely be staying here again.
