  • Small village shop and pub within a mile
  • Play area, football, treehouse, games room and stone-baked pizzas
It might be a small site, but you'll find quite the heap to do for big folks and kids at and around Haywood Farm Caravan and Camping Park near Ross-on-Wye. First up there's the fishing within a couple of miles… And then there's the playground on site, in a scenic and spacious setting (check out the site pics) which also comes with a small pond, a five-a-side football pitch, a games room, indoor table tennis and – huzzah! – a treehouse. Woodland walks are steps away from the site, as Haywood is close to Queens Wood on the edge of the Forest of Dean; and canoeing, kayaking, fishing, golf, horse riding, an indoor pool, mountain biking and tennis are all available in the surrounding countryside. Haywood is a family-run site a short drive from the M50, between Newent and Ross-on-Wye, and with a decent range of guest amenities including showers, a toilet block, disabled facilities, a washing-up area, chemical disposal and recycling. Gas cylinders and ice pack freezing are also available for guests. The site also won winners of the Tested by Tots Best Campsite award for 2022. Pubs, restaurants, shops and public transport are 10 minutes' walk away.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Very welcoming staff, facilities were superb plenty of hot water and spotlessly clean. Was in a beautiful area with lots of local walks. We caught a bus into Ross on Wye from just up the lane, could have used our passes but did not mind paying £2.00. There is a pub/restaurant ran by ex Gurkhas with a specialty Napanese food was excellent 👌 we will definitely be back to Haywood site and recommend to everyone to try it.

Local attractions

Woodland walks are seconds from the farm and four golf courses are within a three-mile radius. Sports centres and swimming pools are a short drive away. The Malvern Hills and the Brecon Beacons are probably the most visited destinations around this part of the England/Wales border, but plenty of other popular picks are around, like canoeing on the River Wye, wandering around the town of Ross-on-Wye, or fishing on the local lakes. The Haywood Farm Caravan and Camping Park team also firmly states that the nearby International Centre for Birds of Prey must be visited: it's the oldest birds of prey centre in the world and has lots of opps for seeing many sorts of raptors up close. Go: it's eggscellent. Pottering around the Forest of Dean is another decent day out: if you're going forestwards, take time to stop off at the ancient woodland site of Puzzlewood and then the Clearwell Caves, mined for thousands of years to extract iron ore and now set up as a mining museum. (It should also be pointed out, just because, that some Doctor Who episodes were filmed here.) Within driving distance, both Monmouth and Malvern towns are 20 minutes away, and the cities of Hereford and Gloucester within 25.
