Our Campsite
Our Campsite is located in the pretty village of Awre, 1.5 miles off the A48 Gloucester to Chepstow road, which serves the very popular tourist destinations of the Wye Valley and Forest of Dean.
Our campsite is dog free - we regret that due to the proximity to farmland and farm animals, no dogs are allowed on site.
Awre is an ancient village listed in the Domesday book, once a royal hunting ground of the King and moulded over the years by industries such as salt, paper, fishing and farming.
There is an active church dating back to the early 13th Century and a traditional cider maker with a shop that is open for visitors.
Access to the Severn Way is within 0.5 miles, where visitors can watch the Severn Bore from the riverbank or join the river walk.

YOUR HOSTS
Robin and Joanne Greening welcome you to their caravan site.
Joanne was born and grew up on Guy Hall Farm in the village of Awre, returning to live there with Robin in 1996.
We have many happy memories from 18 years of camping and caravan holidays with our growing family and it has always been our dream to own and run a caravan site for others to enjoy.
The site is located next to the family farm where chickens, guinea fowl, sheep and cattle forage in nearby fields.
We look forward to meeting you and hope you create your own happy memories for years to come.
