Kind words
from our guests.

Our third visit here, love it. We venture off straight into the forest, walking or biking and explore different tracks each time. The owners Mark/Bev even allowed me to ride with them for their weekly fix, good couple of hours of sheer fun, what hosts they couldn’t be more helpful throughout our entire stay. We’ll be back for sure!

Lovely little site. Only 10 pitches, nicely spaced and right next to the forest. Owner, Bev, is delightful and super helpful. Small shower block with all you need. Grounds beautifully kept. Just ha a week there and have already booked for next year.

Just had 2 nights at this fab little motorhome site. Spacious pitches, wonderful views and plenty of walks from the site. Facilities spotless and Bev the owner is very welcoming, friendly and exceptionally helpful. Couldn’t fault anything so will definitely be back. Thank you Bev

Our 3rd trip this year (April, August and October) to this beautiful peaceful site in the Forest of Dean. Hawthorne Cottage is our jewel in the crown […] This 10 pitch site is a perfect spot to unwind, listen to birdsong, put your feet up, and enjoy the view! Very generous spaced out pitches and good toilet and shower facilities. All topped off with a very friendly owner/manager Bev who is an absolute delight to know and can't do enough for you. We're so looking forward to visiting again next year.

This peaceful haven set in the Forest of Dean is pure perfection for us for many reasons. Being only 10 adult only pitches, all that can be heard is bird song and the trees rustling in the breeze. An abundance of walks/cycle routes direct from the site. If you want to travel further afield a short car journey takes you to so many beautiful places such as Westbury Court Gardens (National Trust) Symonds Yat, Monmouth and the banks of the River Severn. Thanks to Bev the site manager for being a breath of fresh air and taking time to chat to everyone. […]

Perfect for chilling & loads of walking from the site, plenty to see in & around the area, the site is 1st class, thank you Bev

What a perfect campsite! Just back from a quiet couple of days right next to the Forest. Idyllic and quiet! Pitches all well spaced and private and the facilities spotless. Bev is so friendly with lots of info on what to do and see in the area. We shall definitely be back. A lucky find.

Stayed 7 nights.. lovely quiet site.. owners so helpful with walks and local information... has everything you need to a relaxing getaway... would definitely stay again x thank you

A jewel in the heart of the Forest of Dean. From the site, you can walk and cycle straight into the heart of the forest. A short distance from the tranquil Cannop ponds, canoe or walk along the Wye river and climb up to Symmonds Yat. Spacious pitches, free wi-fi and exceptional customer service from the owner make it a memorable location that you want to return again to see the seasons change in this lovely site.

A lovely quiet and peaceful place right next to the forest with lots of walks straight from the campsite. The site is well spaced out and the facilities are spotless and clean. Bev was a lovely host and we can't wait to return

First time at a small camp site for adults only and an experience I'll be seeking to repeat. 10 pitches only and generously spaced. WC and Shower facilities kept spotlessly clean […] Owners very helpful with maps and area info provided on arrival. Tucked away. Absolutely loved it.

Bev is such a lovely lady. Nothing is too much trouble and always has a smile on her face. Site is beautiful, small 10 spaces in all, one shower but never had a problem with it not being available. Lovely dog walk few mins from site. Such a lovely part of the country if you like walking. Plenty if pubs near by with lovely views

Had a wonderful stay here. Bev has thought of everything & never stops. She is there all the time to help with anything. The spacious pitches are well set out with lovely views. Next time we will not leave it until the last minute to book so we can stay longer..

Great stay here for 28 nights. Lots in the area to do and walks from the site. Friendly owner and clean facilities. Would recommend to anyone wanting a quiet site

We enjoyed our one week stay at this quiet, rural site which is alongside part of the Forest of Dean from which you can enjoy walks in the forest without needing to drive at all. […] There are hook up points and satellite TV connectivity available to the pitches. Bev the site manager is particularly helpful.

We stayed at Hawthorne Cottage caravan site for 5 nights at the beginning of February, could have stayed longer! Great site of 10 well spaced out pitches. Set in a very peaceful location on the edge of the Forest of Dean. […] There are numerous walks from the site, through the forest and old railway tracks, great for both walking and cycling. A short drive will take you to beautiful Monmouth with an array of shops and cafes. Also close by is Symonds Yat with a magnificent viewing platform overlooking the picturesque Wye valley and again plentiful walking trails to discover here too. We loved it that much we have booked up to revisit in August.

This site is a lovely little gem. Very quite and great for walking your dog off site into the wooded area behind the site. Bev made us very welcome, she helped to get the TV on for my hubby to watch the football. There was nothing too much for her. She is a very hard working lady and will always help out where she can. The site is kept lovely and clean. What more can you ask

Just got home after a brilliant week at this lovely little site, it's right next to the forest so great for exploring all day with 3 border collies and so peaceful at night, will definitely be going back

Great site, owners are wonderful, the pitches very generous, there are fantastic walks right off the entrance to the site. So peaceful and the wildlife great. Whether you just want to sit and unwind, leisurely walks with the dog you couldn't stay anywhere better. Can't wait to come back and haven't even left yet.

A lovely place to stay. Already booked for next year. So peaceful.
