  • Green and spacious park in Gloucestershire
  • On-site restaurant famous for its excellent food
  • Seven miles to Sharpness Canal and Slimbridge Wildfowl Trust
Greenery and space are on the menu at The Pepper Pot Caravan Park near Dursley in Gloucestershire, which is kept tiptop by its on-site and friendly wardens, who live in and are to hand for any advice or help needed by Pepper Potters during their stay. Facilities are well-maintained and in a purpose-built shower and loo block; an indoor washing-up area and a coin-operated washing machine are also on site. But the best part of The Pepper Pot? Its on-site bar and bistro, The Pepper Pot pub, with decently priced home-cooked meals using the best of local ingredients from local suppliers, such as salads, burgers and quality matured steaks. (If you think your little mover and shaker won't fancy a steak, they have plenty to pick from on the children's menu.)

What customers say

This is a well-maintained, clean, and friendly site, praised for its spacious, level pitches with water hook-ups. Facilities, including showers and toilets, are consistently described as spotless. The on-site pub receives high marks for its food and atmosphere. Its convenient location near the M5 is noted for both accessibility and potential traffic noise, which most guests found unobtrusive. While generally praised, some mention limited on-site amenities for children and dogs.

Joanne W.

Electric gravel touring pitch

Liked Spacious pitch, very relaxed, helpful advice given from reception, small site no noise, easy access to everything and the pub is just next door. Very clean washing and toilet facilities, shower very spacious and a lovely temp. Don’t be put off that it’s next to the motorWay, yes you can hear the noise but it’s like white noise and helps you to get off to sleep. Didn’t spoil our stay at all.

Disliked It was quiet at the beginning of our stay, so not an issue at all but just wondered whether 2 toilets and 2 showers for each gender is enough. Toilet lights are on a timer and it scared my daughter when the lights went out, but it taught her to be quicker.

Liked We had an enjoyable stay with our Dogs, there was a lovely Dog friendly field down the road and a great Pub for food and drinks - whats not to like!

Disliked The site is near the motorway so you get some road noise although it didnt stop us having a great nights sleep.

Recommend to friends Visit again

Electric gravel touring pitch

Liked Spacious pitch with a hedge so great separation from other vans. Very clean toilets/showers with plenty of hot water. Key coded gate so great security. Friendly staff who always took the time to chat and give you pointers of places to visit.

Disliked No dislikes but distant noise from Motorway and trains but got used to it and didnt spoil things at all.

Local attractions

The Pepper Pot Caravan Park is in a decent spot to use as a base for exploring Gloucestershire and its surrounds, particularly for those who like their wildlife or historic homes. Plenty of other activities and attractions can be found within ten miles. Two golf clubs are within a quick drive, the Stinchcombe Hill Golf Club two and a half miles away and the Cotswold Edge Golf Club within five. Also within a short drive are Berkeley Castle and the Vale of Berkeley (two and a half miles) and the Cattle Country Adventure Park (two miles) for yee-haw adventuring. Wildlife types have the River Severn Estuary and the Slimbridge Wildfowl Trust to explore within six and seven miles respectively, with more species to see at Oldown Country Park eight miles away; wildfowl and other critters along the nearby Gloucester to Sharpness Canal, and Dean Forest and the Wye Valley 11 miles from base. More into historic homes, local history or greenery? Take your Pepper Pot pick from the National Trust's Woodchester Mansion and park or Westbury Court Gardens (seven and 11 miles); Chavenage House and the National Arboretum at Westonbirt (both ten miles), or the National Waterways Museum at Gloucester Docks 16 miles away. The Pepper Pot team also recommends a punt at Chepstow Racecourse, 11 miles away; a look at the longest village green in England at Frampton On Severn nine and a half miles away, or a dip at Dursley Pool and Sports Centre within five and a half miles. For day trips, sink into some shopping and sightseeing at Bristol or spa city Bath.
