Date of Visit: March 2012 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Jaygo 3 reviews from this member

 This campsite has been a consistent favourite of ours since the start of our caravanning some 18 years ago.

It is extremely well laid out with great shower blocks all very highly maintained by the Caravan Club wardens.

The location, as a striking distance for so many places within the beautiful Cotswolds makes it so very special for us.

My only criticism would be the approach road in over a very rough bumpy lane past some extremely scruffy college buildings. Not the C. Clubs fault and once through the gate all is wonderful.

Reviewer: Bodgerdog14 3 reviews from this member

 We spent Christmas at Ciencester Park and this was our second visit within a few months so I knew we could manoeuvre our twin axle caravan into the relatively narrow approach road.

The wardens (there seemed to be quite a team of them!) were very pleasant and helpful and should be congratulated for the high standard of cleanliness in the toilet and shower block as well as in the park itself - such a lot to look after! Super washing machines and driers.

Useful information in the cabin.

As long as you're pretty fit it's possible to walk into Cirencester via the park or along the roadside pavement - quite a long, steepish climb on the way back.

An interesting, attractive town, with a church steeped in history. The Corinium Museum - not to be missed with fabulously displayed Roman artefacts. In town you'll find plenty of places to rest your feet over a snack lunch!

Perhaps a few more water points would be helpful but maybe we're just lazy!

We do like this site very much and look forward to returning this summer.

Reviewer: Wigglebiggles 2 reviews from this member

 I have to say this is one of our favourite sites, it is spacious and well laid out with hardstanding pitches and grass pitches, there is a lovely large play area for children, and it is set to one side so that it does not disturb the majority of the site users.

The site is set well back from the main road, so lovey and peaceful at night. It is next to a college, but we did not hear any noise from it, and of course there is no one at the college on the weekends.

The grounds are kept in pristine condition by the very hard working wardens, who are so friendly and helpful, but this is what we have always found on Caravan Club sites.

As mentioned before it is an easy walk into the local town, Cirencester itself has lots of individual shops, and not just the usual chain stores.

The site is also well lit and one of the toilet/shower blocks was refurbished last year to a very high standard with very spacious showers, which you can control the temperature to suit yourself, unlike some sites we have been on.

There is also a separate area to dress/undress in each cubicle and a bench to put your clothes/towels on, and two free hairdryers in the main area where the sinks are.

We were very impressed. And if you are a Member of the Caravan Club the nightly fees are very reasonable compare to some of the private sites.

 This was our second visit to cirencester, the last one was nearly 10 years ago. We had a nice welcome from the wardens and pitched on the grassy area at the rear of the site near the dog walk and 2nd facilities block.

The facilities were excellent and always spotless, the site up to normal caravan club standards.

This is a busy site and fills up at weekends. You used to be able and still can (although informed not to) walk from the site directly into the park and into cirencester, along with many students who also use the direct access route. Its not clear why the earl of bathhurst has asked people not to use the route, we were obedient to start with and after watching all the locals using it, decided to take this shorter more scenic route into cirencester and avoid walking alongside the dual carriageway!

Talking of which, on quiet summer evenings, there is quite a bit of road noise at the site but this doesn't take away from its excellent location for cirencester with its lovely shops, cafes etc, the park, westonbirt arbroretum ( v dog friendly) and all the NT and other attractions in the cotswolds.

I am sure we will return to this very pleasant site. Last thought is that Information booth could be better stocked, more informing with local walks etc

 We stayed here for a Fri & Sat night. As has been said, it's the usual high CC standard and within a reasonably short walk into town. The site itself is quite large and strangely disorientating to 'navigate' around.

Our (grass) pitch was situated over on the far left-hand edge of the site and it gave us plenty of room, however walking back through the site, as has already mentioned, some of the 'central' pitches seemed very close together and quite small (if planning on staying on this site, it would be worth just checking on the CC website to view a map, so you know which areas to aim for).

We would certainly go back.

Date of Visit: August 2011 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Tamus 5 reviews from this member

 Lovely Caravan Club site, ideally located for walking into Town with plenty to see and do. Lots of eating areas, the Thai Restaurant was lovely. The toilet blocks were excellent, very clean and no problems at all with water pressure or temperature no matter if used in the morning or at night. The staff were friendly but were obviously kept busy keeping the site looking as good as it did. Will certainly be back although living in Scotland it will probably be next year - wish it was closer it would be great for short breaks!

Reviewer: Nancy14 2 reviews from this member

 Have just returned from a stay here and we had a lovely time there is lots to do in this area

Just in walking distance there is the town and a waitrose supermarket with a tesco just a little bit out of town.

It is a great town with lots of nice shops in the wider area there is so much to do the cotswold water park is a must for a great day out.

We had many nice days out and will return to this area sometime.

However think if this site is right for you as it is a very large site which is very open plan and a lot of lazy people wander across your pitch taking shortcuts to the toilet block with no thought for your privacy

As said before the information room is basic do your research before you go

Also there are some of the smallest pitches we have ever seen here

The toilet block was nice and no problem getting a shower

There is a good park alongside the site which was good for a walk

I would like to say the warden was good as per other sites but her welcome was non existent and a huge disappointment to the start of our holiday

However despite this we would like to return to this area

Reviewer: Flutterbye 11 reviews from this member

 Lovely site, short walk from town, amphitheatre, leisure centre and outdoor pool. Good play area and play field too. Dog walk area too. Quite a sloped site you'll probably need ramps and blocks. Facility block is best around, wardens helpful.

Cirencester is a lovely town, lots of coffee shops and individual shops too. We spend a couple of hours at the roman museum there, discount through the 'Great Days Out' CC scheme.

All in all a great site for most people, so much so that we're going back again in 2 weeks time for Bank Hol, as it's only 1. 5hrs from our home.

Reviewer: Mogs70 15 reviews from this member

 This is a very big site - but we didn't realise that at first, its well laid out.

The shower block is one of the best I can remember in 24 years of touring but for one thing - the water pressure wont knock you over!- but lots of warm water, roomy cubicles and plenty of hooks - simple pleasures, amazingly rare when touring.

It's about a 15 minute (and boring) walk into town, where there are plenty of cafes, individual shops (a rarity), a bit of history, pleasant pubs (try the Twelve Bells) and some friendly folk.

Cotswold airport (Kemble) worth a look on the way past if you like your aircraft.

Westonbirt is a short car trip away and had a woodcraft weekend over the bank holiday - £12, expensive, but interesting. 


Date of Visit: July 2011 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Gj shemilt 1 review from this member

 This is one of the nicest sites we have been on, although over 200 caravans /motor homes you never felt overcrowded the toilet block was always very clean and with 10 showers even when the site was full you never had to wait. There is always a toilet open even when they are cleaning.

You may possibly need a long lead to connect up to the hook up. You will also need a long Ariel lead but they do sell them on site

The wardens were pleasant, friendly and very helpful. Children/dogs didn't cause any problems and the site was peaceful & quiet for the whole 2 weeks we were there.

Plenty of places to visit Cotswold Farm not far from the site about 20miles is a must if you have children and lots for them to do.

Bourton-on-the-Water, Stow-on-the-Wold. The open air swimming pool at Cirencester are good places to visit.

Cirencester has lots of good shops, plus for food there is a Tesco super store, Waitrose, and a Lidl.

There is a very good fish and chip shop near to the camp site on the road to the Amphitheatre plus chemist and a Tesco Metro

We will definitely be back

Reviewer: Suenmike 2 reviews from this member

 One of the nicest Caravan Club Sites we have stayed at. The pitches are a good size and you have a choice of grass or hardstanding.

There is a great dog walk and the site is convenient to Cirencester town and its excellent shops.

The wardens are helpful especially as we stayed in deep snow in January and they made it as easy as possible pitch our caravan. We went back in March and enjoyed our stay even more.

Cirencester is convenient to Westonbirt Arboretum (the most dog friendly place we have ever visited) and also the Swindon Designer Outlet Centre.

We normally use Adult only sites but the children here were exceptionally quiet and well-behaved.

Reviewer: Stevoplumbo 3 reviews from this member

 What a great site to visit Cirencester. About 1 mile from the town centre and a lovely walk through the park. Great new facilities, I have never been on a site with so many showers/loos, all bright and clean with easy access for all, it even has loos for use whilst the main blocks are being serviced. Cirencester is a lovely town with stacks of history and culture, well worth a visit. A quality supermarket is a fifteen minute walk from site. My first visit and we are looking forward to another visit in the summer 


Date of Visit: October 2010 Unit:  Campervan

Reviewer: Dot P 792 reviews from this member

 Enormous CC site just outside Cirencester - approx 200 total pitches. We arrived and were told they could fit us in that night - but not the next as they were fully booked for half term, From that we assume its a very popular site to have over 130 units in October (grass standing were closed).

As usual toilets / showers very clean. A little odd to see the shower blocks 'taped off' with red tape to ensure the only way in was to walk around the roads - if you are on the road behind its a fair walk to go around the roads at night to the toilet. Assume to stop people walking in damp grass and then into the facilities?

We found Waitrose approx 1 mile from the site - lovely supermarket with fabulous fresh cakes and breads.

We paid £13 for one night which was very reasonable and we would have probably stayed longer had space been available.

 I loved this site. Having just come from Willingcott in N. Devon, the facilities here were wonderful. The site looks lovely, has a great situation, 10 mins walk from Cirencester (which is really really lovely-loads to do, beautiful buildings, interesting shops).

Great Indian restaurant (also takeaway), the Vindaloo (it gets 4/5 stars for food hygiene, too). There are 2 toilet blocks, one newer than the other. In the new one there were ten showers!

I would not hesitate to recommend this to anyone, and will most definitely go back.

Reviewer: Kernow Camper 265 reviews from this member

 We had not stayed at Cirencester Park for over 10 years and how it has changed - for the better!

It's a lovely big site but still has a nice feel. You reach it down a bumpy road and past Cirencester College, look out for stray students with iPods walking in the road!

Quick and efficient booking in. You choose your own pitch and when you let the wardens know where you are you are issued with a barrier card to gain entry and exit.

The new toilet block is lovely, as it would be, with plenty of toilets, showers and privacy cubicles. The 2nd, older, block is also great and is kept spotless. Some of the pitches are a fair walk from each block though. The information hut didn't seem to have much information in it!

You can no longer access Cirencester Park (the grounds) from the site but can from the road leading to the town. The town is a 20-30 min walk from the site and is a lot bigger than we remembered! Plenty of shops and eating places in town and some of the pubs are doggie friendly. There is a Waitrose on the outskirts of town or a Tesco Express in town. The Abbey Grounds and Lake are worth a wander around.

The only thing that may put us off going back was the closeness of the College to the site and the swarms of kids/students around the site all day long.
