What a wonderful, clean, friendly campsite - we highly recommend it! Lorraine and David were very welcoming and friendly. We stayed for two nights in our Campervan with awning (electric hook-up). As all the pitches are based around the edge of the field, our 2 year old loved playing football on the large centre grass area - where it was easy to keep an eye on him!
Compared to most campsites, toilets and shower block were immaculate - modern, clean, great showers (free) and hairdryers.
Excellent cafe on site which serves a fab full English breakfast and a great choice of evening meals. A professionally run cafe - the couple obviously have years of experience.
Forest of Dean (approx 3 mins drive away) has a fantastic family cycling route.
Absolutely fantastic site! We called and had such a warm response from Lorraine, everything was explained in detail and she made us feel very welcome.
We arrived just before 12, checked in and were able to pitch straight away. The lower hook up field is flat, but we were basic camping. Slight slope but nothing to worry about.
Loads of space for the children to play, we were directed to pitch around the edge and leave the middle area clear for games of cricket, frizbee etc.
Shower block is lovely, lots of space to keep clothes dry, perfect temperature and free! Free hairdriers too.
Baby goats in the next field kept our children and their new friends occupied for hours!
Lots of places to go and visit. We went to Symmonds Yat which was lovely.
Only downsides, lots of wasps and noisy house behind the middle field.
Really lovely site and good value for money. The tent fields are slopey and it's hard to find a completely level pitch. We'll be going back again but this time will pay the extra for an electric hook up pitch so we get a flat pitch.
The toilet block looked new and is really good with free hot showers, it's heated and has free hairdryers (although not hot enough for my frizzy hair) and is very clean - would be cleaner if campers cleaned up after themselves though!
Pitches are a free for all, ie you can choose where to pitch but as I said, limited level pitch choices.
The cafe on site is lovely, and the site keeps its 'real' camping charm as it's not like a campsite club house. We only had breakfast there on the last day - it's a bit pricey really; but the food in the evenings looked good. You can buy your milk there too.
There are only 2 washing up sinks so the usual queues. There is also a freezer for iceblocks which is essential - I've actually left mine there - oops.
It's in a great location for the Forest of Dean's attractions without being commercialised and over popular. There is a chemist, chippy and butcher in the village.
The site lets you have fires in your BBQs.
The site leaflet on check-in mentioned no music outside at all (all day) and no noise after 1030pm - but it was shame this wasn't policed or adhered to at the weekends.
Our 2 year old loved feeding the little goats who live next to the tent field living in an old caravan.
I have rated the facilities as 7/10 due to the slopes in the tent field and it would be nice to have a small play area and have the fields enclosed by gates to help control wild toddlers. Location as 9/10 as there was a bit of road noise and no really nice pub nearby,
Just spent 3 nights we - loved it - apart from packing up the tent in the pouring rain!
The shower block was warm and clean and there was plenty of hot water even when the site was fully booked. The cafe is excellent and well worth a visit,the food was good and reasonably priced.
We went with friends (4 adults, 2 children in the party) and found the large playing field great for the kids to run around, play and make friends in a safe environment. Lorraine and David were very friendly and helpful. The chip shop is the village is good, a bonus as the local pub does not serve food. We would recommend the site and will definitely return.
My daughter (aged 8) would like to comment - I think that the playing field and the goats were good fun when you were not going out anywhere.So I would highly recommend greenway farm
Just back from a 3 night stay with my 5 yr old daughter. What a great campsite, everyone very friendly and considerate. As we were meeting friends we were allowed to put our tents together. We were in the lower field with electric hookup and the middle of the field was given over to playing children. Had horrific rain one day but the field held up well.
The showers and toilets were immaculate and very clean, plenty of hot water and very roomy. The washing up hut had two simks, again plenty of hot water. The cafe was excellent, food wonderful, lattes out of this world! They do eat-in and takeaway.
Little paddock with two goats in that the children enjoyed feeding and a small poppy field alongside, other than that no playground. Well located for Monmouth, Ross, Gloucester and the surrounding areas so plenty to do on wet and dry days. The village of Drybrook was just a 3 min drive and had a chip shop, pharmacy and convenience store but there are plenty of options with Coleford and Cinderford close by with their supermarkets. All in all a great campsite, nothing bad to say about it.We will be returning.
Just returned from a three night stay at the end of July. Would thoroughly recommend it. They stick to their policy of going for 'under capacity' and only allowing camping round the edges of the fields. This means there's plenty of space in the middle for children to play without annoying anyone else, and you're not on top of other campers. Had no problem pitching two large family tents together.
Our kids played football, cricket and frisbee endlessly while on site, while others on our field played with bikes, kites and stomp rockets, and there was still room to spare. They all enjoyed offering titbits to the two goats.
Most people seemed to settle into their own tents between 8 and 9 pm, and there was no disturbing noise after that.
Showers etc are wonderful - warm building, very clean, never saw anyone waiting, great design so clothes don't get wet (and no horrible shower curtains). Even the washing up hut was warm. And lots of people were using the free freezer in there to cool their wine bottles as well as re-freeze their packs.
Didn't use the cafe, but it said they could make up sandwiches and baguettes for your days out if you wanted.
Walked through the woods from the campsite for one day out, and went to Puzzlewood for the next - amazing place. We were sceptical, but it was brilliant. And Symonds Yat is awesome - especially in the evening when no one else is there (gates close at 9pm).
A great site with lovely views of the surrounding fields and hillside. There were two kid goats in the field beside us. The middle tent field is on a hill and therefore pitches aren't entirely level, but when we were there the grass was short, there were no demarcation lines - so we could pitch the tent how we wanted - and there was plenty of room to pitch the tent and to park the car. One warning to the noise-sensitive: we pitched at the highest point, and discovered there is a road hidden directly behind the high hedge which seems to carry a fair bit of traffic at times.
All the site staff were friendly and helpful. There is no shop on site, but the village is about ten minutes' walk away. We hadn't planned to use the cafe as we had our dog with us, but the weather prevented barbecues, so we decided to ask if they would allow a takeaway service. The cafe staff let us take meals from the cafe, on their own plates which we returned in the morning, and nothing seemed too much trouble. The food was fine and very reasonably priced - in total less than £20 for dinner for four adults - and there was plenty of choice on the evening menu, including two veggie options.
The site information sheet states that all dogs are on leads or staked beside tents so they don't pose a problem by wandering around, a rule which was adhered to. (This rule could also be made applicable to very young children - we had a few rather noisy stray ones wandering around our tent chatting and singing at 6am.!).
There is a 'no noise after 10.30pm' rule in force - this was pretty much followed to the letter. There is also a 'no outside music' rule, so the site was pleasantly quiet, just people chatting to each other and playing ball games in the centre of the field.
The shower block was always clean and tidy and there were plenty of showers, sinks and toilet cubicles. There is a washing-up hut with two large sinks; all nice and clean, lots of hot water, but the lighting is a bit on the dim side!
Locally, Drybrook (just down the road) is a small village with not an awful lot to see, but with some useful shops. Ross on Wye, about ten minutes' drive from the site, is well worth a visit for the river alone - drive down to the bottom of the hill in town where there is a small car park on the left - walk through it, follow the field round to the left, and eventually the path takes you to the right along the river Wye, where there is a long walk along wide green banks under ancient fir trees (large fir cones everywhere - great fun for kids and dogs!). There is a pub called The Hope & Anchor (recommended by one of the site staff) which serves reasonable lunches in a beautiful riverside setting. There are also some striking metal sculptures of flying swans on tall plinths along the walk.
Just returned from a 2 night stay at this clean and well organised site. We occupied two tent pitches on the lower field, both with EHU.
The pitches were well spaced and only occupying the perimeter of the field meant plenty of free space centrally, providing a good view and space to play the odd game of frizbee!
The facilities on-site were excellent. The shower/toilet block was modern and we never had to wait for a hot shower or toilet. Although we didn't use the cafe too much during our stay, it was clearly one of the best features of the site: friendly staff, clean and comfortable with a varied menu. Before leaving we had coffee and a bacon sandwich. Very good.
By far the most satisfying aspect of this site for us was the peaceful and quiet surroundings. We did not have children ourselves and really wanted a quiet break away from it all. There were lots of children enjoying themselves on the site but at no point was noise an issue, especially in the evening.
The only slight disappointment for us was the actual area: Forest of Dean. It is a little like stepping back in time but we knew this already as we live in Gloucestershire. Slightly lacking in terms of quality pubs, restaurants etc. We spent the day in Hereford with is better catered for. This aspect didn't bother us too much however, as really the trip was a trial run for our Summer trip to the Vendee in 3 weeks time.
All in all, a very good site which I would recommend to both couples and families with young children.
What a lovely clean well kept site. Very easy to bike into the Forest of Dean from the site which is a rel bonus. Owners very friendly and always there if you need anything. The 'GARDENER' or should I say owner is always around doing some type of work :-) Toilet blocks are all new and well light at night. Showers and hair dryer are both free.Plenty of room on tent pitch.The baby goats were a delight to watch. We will be returning with out a doubt:-)
Top notch site! Perfect location with brand new facilities, that have been built to a very high standard. Excellent showers and toilets, never had to queue once despite the campsite being full.
The on-site Greenway Cafe is a huge benefit serving good quality food at reasonable prices.
Lorraine the owner is extremely helpful, on-site all the time to deal with any queries and nothing is too much trouble.
The site is perfectly safe for children of all ages and my 2 kids (aged 7 & 4) had a great time making friends, leaving the adults to enjoy a well earned rest!
Symonds Yat a must if you have a day out and we enjoyed an afternoon at Puzzlewood.
Probably best to book in advance for peak times, this site is popular!
We visited Greenway Farm Camping Site in Drybrook this week with a large party of 10 tents / caravans / campervans. The site owners were extremely accommodating and we all had an absolutely fabulous time, especially the children.
The pitches were spacious and facilities excellent, with the additional benefit of an on-site cafe which offered good home-cooked food / drinks at very reasonable prices. There was no shop on-site but this did not matter as the cafe sold milk and the local shop was a short drive (or 10 minute walk) away. The shower/toilet block appeared new and was very clean and warm (with hairdryers too). There was also a washing-up hut which we did not make use of.
The site itself is perfectly situated close to the Forest of Dean, Ross On Wye and beautiful Symonds Yat. The local walks are very enjoyable and there are local companies offering canoes for rent along the River Wye.
All in all, a fantastic stay for us and I would certainly recommend this site to anyone wanting to visit this beautiful part of the country.
Our favourite campsite so far. Pitched wherever we fancied so set up in the top field with beautiful view along the valley with horses to watch as we drank beer and basked in the sun. Very smart washing up hut. Lovely new ladies facilities opened up on our fist night. Very spacious showers with a chair and plenty of hooks to keep your stuff off the floor - no queuing at all and it was Easter weekend. Really friendly staff - on site, in reception and in the cafe. We ate at the cafe one evening, the food was yummy and very reasonably priced. Had to try the lemon cake the next day and that was superb too! Reception sold firelogs which at first glance seemed inadequate but do not be fooled, they burned beautifully for more than the 3 hours that were promised on the packaging. A s described, Greenway is perfectly located for Ross, Momouth and the Forest. Definitely on the list for a return visit - soon.
We had a really pleasant 2 night stay. There are 2 camping fields and 1 for caravans with electric hook ups. It had been raining for the previous 2 days, but the fields were well drained and the weather was not a problem.
We spoke to the guy who runs the site, lovely man, very friendly and helpful, told us all about the local area and places to visit. He also told us not to rush off on our last day which allowed us to squeeze in another day trip instead of having to pack everything up before 11am! (Not sure if this would be viable when they are busy though!) This was the perfect end to our weekend away as we have been to a lot of places where the owner is practically pushing you off the field come 11am!
The owner had just finished the new shower block in time for Easter, there are about 5 or 6 showers in the women's block which are lovely and also partitioned off with hooks and a chair so that your clothes don't get soaked, also has 2 free hairdryers, much to the relief of my teenage daughter and her friend! Can't say about the men's block, but hubby didn't complain so I am sure they were just as nice!
The cafe provided a lovely breakfast,(9-11am, it was nice not to have to cook for one morning), and also a menu of baguettes, sandwiches and hot food after 11am.
All in all a really nice campsite and good base to explore the surrounding area. I will be recommending this site to friends and will definitely be back in the summer!
We - 2 families, 4 adults 3 kids (11-13) just had a fantastic weekend at this site. We had 2 spacious pitches with EHU in a corner of the field so we had a little extra room for our day tent. Although the site appeared full this didn't hinder us in any way as there was still plenty of room for the kids to play football and cricket without bothering anyone else.
The site is set in picturesque surroundings and we would definitely recommend it to other campers who would like somewhere quiet to stay. We only met one of the owners - he was a really friendly bloke who suggested places of interest locally for us to visit. He also told us about the local chippy and pub which were both very good.
There were only 2 showers and 2 toilets in the main block, (another 2 toilets in one of the 3 fields that you could camp in) and although they were in constant use first thing in the morning we only had to wait a few minutes before one became available, they were kept very clean though considering we had rain for most of the weekend. We were told by the owner that a new toilet block, a shop and a launderette was in the process of being built.
The cafe on the site was very good too and the staff in there were very friendly
One last thing which was a lovely personal touch was that the owner came and asked us if we'd had a good time while on his site and wished us all the best - if we camp in the Forest of Dean again this is where it will be!
We spent a weekend last month - the site is spacious, although got crowded while we were there. The owners are very welcoming and the cafe and food was a great boon to us in a small tent! The only downside was that although the toilet / shower block was new, there was no ventilation and within about 30 mins of morning usage, the floor was soaked and very slippery and two showers for each gender (2 for women, 2 for men).
