 The site is set in a commercial area of the town which seems rather disconcerting, until you enter the site itself, which is well maintained, with excellent, clean facilities. You can even have a bath! The fishing lake is a very pretty area for a family walk and enjoy a sunny day. Morrisons supermarket is a 10 minute walk away which is handy for a last minute fried breakfast.

The pitches are adequate in size and the warden oversees that you are not encroaching on any other pitches.

The site is well managed but they are very strict on noise after 10 pm which is something to be aware of if you are staying with friends or family. There is a childs play area and the site is happy for well supervised children to use these areas to play ball. Although this is not allowed in the other areas of the site. We stay to canoe in the area and the site is well placed for exploring the surrounding area.

 In general a nice well kept site close by to Ross on Wye and its amenities.

The site was tidy and neat with good facilities and the staff were helpful.

However at £23 per night in low season we thought this was quite pricey. Ok it is a '5 *' site but this came with its own negatives - such as the biggest list of 'don't's' I have ever come across and everywhere there was do and don't signage. I think I counted about 8 in the shower blocks alone!

A nice site for being close to Ross but a bit too OTT for our more simple tastes.

 Reception: Warm reception from everyone, which always bodes well for a good weekend. This was our second visit to Broadmeadow.

Pitch: Hard standing, medium sized pitch (N0 90) with water and view over the lake.

Facilities: Two shower blocks, although the showers are push button, you get 30 seconds. Water is plentiful and very warm. Toilets are clean. Morrisons is 5 minute walk away.

Dog walk: There is a small walk around the lake.

Pubs: There are several pubs and restaurants in Ross on Wye. I recommend the Man of Ross which sells real ale and cider. It also has a wonderful view over the valley

Ross on Wye is a delightful town with lots of shops, pubs and restaurants. Easy access to other towns such as Hereford and Gloucester.

Local Transport: Bus stop is about 7 minutes walk in the town centre. £5 gets you a day tripper to Hereford, Coleford, Gloucester and other towns.

In summary, a really nice site with excellent facilities, no wonder it is so popular. The local town has everything you need

Reviewer: Carlsenior 17 reviews from this member

 On the plus side this is a very well maintained site in a good location for Ross-on-Wye, the pitches are well maintained and it is in very nice grounds with plenty of space for dog walking etc. The website states that this is a 'five star' campsite but in the opinion of my partner and myself it's more likely to be a good three star.

On the minus side, firstly you have to drive through what appears to be a bus depot come scrap yard to get into the site and if you want to walk into Ross you have to walk out the same way which isn't very appealing! there is a lot of traffic noise from the A40 which runs directly alongside the site, the toilet blocks were clean and tidy but not as clean as you'd expect for a five star site especially on the first night of the season, the shower cubicles could do with a good dose of bleach and there are no toilet brushes available so you walked into the last persons mess.

I would have expected a fully serviced pitch as the site is very expensive and if the extras on the BIG list of charges is added on it's very expensive! you even have to pay for a day visitor.

All in all it's a good site due to it's proximity to Ross but very expensive and not really child friendly.

 We telephoned the site on day of departure and they managed to squeeze us in

Excellent site was personally taken to pitch and told where everything was

Toilet block excellent lots of showers rooms with sink also a room with bath, sink and toilet ideal for young children

Hook up included in pitch price

Very friendly staff

Lovely fishing lakes which we will take advantage of on our next visit

Morrisons about a two minute walk

Town about 5 minutes with a large selection of places to eat and drink

 We were warmly welcomed by the reception staff. This site is handy for walking into Ross on Wye and exploring the town. We were a bit put off by the coach graveyard just before the entrance of the site, however the site itself was clean and well kept.

There was a very short time allowance on the push button showers, but there was plenty of hot water. There was no segregation of the many tents - they were put amongst the caravans and motorhomes.

There were good recycling facilities but the marking of the various types of recycling bins could have been improved. At £20 a night for two people we thought this site was expensive for what was provided.

Reviewer: Purple-elephant 1 review from this member

 First of all don't let the fact that you have to drive through a run down industrial estate / bus park put you off. Yes, if you're walking from morrisons then the walk takes you close to vehicles coming into and out of the site but then they should all be aware to drive slowly.

The site has barriers to prevent you entering and exiting the site, although these seemed to be kept up throughout the day.

The staff are efficient and to the point but are fairly friendly. Though don't think they will miss any possibility of get monies off you - think it's a bit of a cheek to be charged for a trailer that only contains the tent and kitchen stuff but then seems to be the trend now for some sites.

The site is flat but is completely open with only a few small trees dotted around.

Kids are only supposed to be allowed to play ball games at the end of the play area, which is situated at one end of the campsite, next to a small river but is right next to the exit road which can lead to a few worries with some of the people that seemed to be on the site during our visit. There were other grass areas more central that were suitable for playing but although the signs said no ball games would not have affected other campers.

The toilet blocks were clean and tidy all the times used and the single bath unit in both ladies and gents came in useful with the little ones.

The gripe I have is that the pitches, whilst I'm sure are 'standard size', they are a lot smaller that other sites visited, as you have to squeeze the car onto the pitch as the site roadways are narrow.

Normally I would say that you get what you pay for but this time I was left wanting more for my money.

Reviewer: AngM 1 review from this member

 The access to this site through an industrial estate & coach park is thankfully very far removed from this well maintained campsite. Having Morrisons so close by is very useful, and the walk to the lovely town & pubs of Ross is no more then 10 minutes.

The toilet/ shower facilities are kept clean and the place is very well looked after.

We went in a group of 8 families, all the kids took their bikes - very much a part of every camping trip we have ever made - but we were immediately told that bikes could not be ridden on any part of this site. The football/ cricket game that has also become part of our camping culture could not take place either as ball games were restricted to a very small area.

There is a children's play area - it is very small and did not keep the kids occupied for long. On the plus side they enjoyed the fishing lake.

Wrongly or rightly we got the impression that this site is not for children - at least not children of the age group between 5-15 as were ours. It is ideal for couples with very young children or couples without children just wishing for peace and quiet.

The site rules are extensive and although they do appear on the website, the rule relating to bikes should appear on the homepage as this is a big factor for many families (evidenced by the amount of families turning up to the site with bikes).

 After driving through the industrial site at the side of Morristons you come across a large open site, plenty of space, well kept and clean facilities.

Park for the children. Site was half full when we were there but still lovely and quiet we didn't hear motorway traffic. Friendly staff, willing to put us next to two groups of friends.

Very close to Ross on Wye town centre, morristons supermarket 2 mins walk, town centre 7 mins away. Rose and crown public house does lovely bar food down by the river front.

Will definitely return to this site

 After driving through an industrial estate we was surprised to find a lovely clean and well kept site. The wardens are very friendly and helpful.

The showers and toilets are very clean and tidy.

A large morrissons is directly outside the site and a 10 minute walk into the town of Ross on wye which has some nice little shops and plenty of pubs and cafe,s.

Wetherspoon in the town also very nice.

Other people have commented on the traffic noise from the A40 but I can honestly say we heard no traffic noise.

The site is pricey as we have paid this and had a club house and pool but saying that we will definitely return.

 A lovely open park with beautiful surroundings,once you have driven through a bus park (??) with walks around the lake and ducks to feed. Reception welcome was good, and the park is secure and we felt safe.

The nearby motorway was not too noisy on the night we there. All facilities very clean and well maintained, but the shower has a push button operation (as most do) which only lasts for 10 seconds.

This is not long enough, a minimum of 1 minute for a shower would be desirable. Also the water was not nearly hot enough. It is a little more expensive than some.

Very close to the town of Ross on Wye which is a beautiful little town full of history, and full of lovely restaurants.

Reviewer: Librarian 2 reviews from this member

 This site is well maintained, clean and handy for the town centre.

However it's a bit like staying in an army camp. Never have I seen so many signs and instructions. The ladies shower block alone has 8 different signs on the walls if you include the one on the door, if that's not enough some of these signs are duplicated.

Also it may be handy for town but it's also handy for the odd thief as we were burgled twice! This is the only site I have stayed on where it was not safe to leave things in the awning.

Our friends daughter and partner were not allowed to visit us because their vehicle is a company vehicle, he was told to leave his vehicle in the town which he didn't want to do because of it's valuable contents. I appreciate the rules say no commercial vehicles are allowed but they had no intention of staying for long and what would the reaction have been if he had come to repair our caravan. Overall a very nice site spoilt by being too regimented.

Never again!

Reviewer: Vango_42 3 reviews from this member

 Having read some good and even glowing reviews from others about this site we were really disappointed: the site is right by the A40 and lacks any kind of effective sound-proofing barrier between the traffic and the campsite.

We were awake till 1. 00 am, when the traffic noise finally stopped. Until picking up again about 7. 00 am the next morning.

Yes, the toilets are clean and yes the site is well-run and yes it is handy for Ross but none of these made up for the traffic noise.

Reviewer: BORCIC 5 reviews from this member

 Lovely site 10 minute walk from Ross, friendly wardens, showers/toilets were spotless. Even had a bath.

Nice wetherspoons in town. Morrisons next to site, though when we were there was a lot of building work going on.

You have to go through industrial estate to get to site,

Very small dog walk and couldn't let dogs off lead even in dog walk because of ducks.

Was quite expensive and charged £1.50 for each dog.

Childrens play area at edge of site.

We were only there for 1 night on our way to Devon but would definitely return

Reviewer: Knocker1946 1 review from this member

 Nice tidy beautifully well laid out site close to a nice pleasant town Ross on wye with very helpful accommodating wardens. They were a little uncomfortable having to ask for extra money for things like £3.00 per night per car for a car being towed by a motor home when as every knows no extra charge is made for a car towing a caravan which I must say both take same amount of room on a pitch. This is a first for me I hope it is not the start of a trend to get more money out of us motorhomers. Other than that it's a well run site.
