  • Simple site with grass pitches a five-minute drive from Bromyard
  • Hereford and Ludlow half an hour’s drive; Worcester 35 minutes
  • Fly-fishing lake; café open seven days a week; dog-friendly site
If you’re looking for a spot that will keep the entire family happy – whether they’re into fishing, hiking or fine dining – please consider Kingfisher Trout Lake Camping. This long-established family-run site with spacious grass pitches sits a five-minute drive from the town of Bromyard, in rural Herefordshire. Unsurprisingly, the big news here is the presence of a gorgeously landscaped lake that’s just the ticket for a spot of fly fishing. What’s more, should your long-suffering partner wonder what the big attraction of angling is, they might be able to finally find out thanks to an on-site tutor who can show them the basics of casting. Even if they’re not hooked (geddit?), they get to experience the beauty of the lake and its residents, which include kingfishers, ducks and dragonflies. Please remember to keep your dog on a lead when wandering along the water’s edge. In terms of amenities, the site is on the basic side: there is a toilet block and facilities for ice-pack freezing, chemical disposal and recycling. There is, however, a rather handy café that’s open daily (until 3pm), where you might be able to sample full English breakfasts, light lunches and homemade cakes, plus a range of hot and cold drinks. Those who are after a more sophisticated dining experience head to Ludlow (half an hour’s drive), in Shropshire, which is renowned for its Michelin-starred restaurants and gastropubs.

Primitive grass and earth travel trailer campsite

Liked: We had a very peaceful three nights in our motorhome, the pitch area is at the top of a grassed field which is level and mowed. There are filling and emptying facilities nearby which are perfectly adequate. The location itself is very picturesque and the cafe served lovely ice cream and milk shakes amongst other delights. We will definitely return when we are in the area again, thank you.

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to provide this review. I’m not sure if you read the site information when you booked or saw all the positive reviews and booked based on those, but we have ensured an accurate distribution of our facilities and made it very clear we are a basic site. That’s why we have very reasonable charges. What were you expecting for £12 a night, but I’m yet to meet anyone who doesn’t think that is value for money. I don’t know if you happened to stay with us on an exceptionally busy night, but that ‘busy’ road provides access to a handful of properties and as a public highway we have no control over who uses it, but no one has ever even commented on it, let alone complained!
A note for anyone reading this review the campsite is elevated from the road (from the campsite you would see over a cars roof) and has an established thick hedge on the boundary.

Excellent

Primitive grass and earth travel trailer campsite

Liked: Beautiful lake and very peaceful site. Currently no electric hook up but Christine (site owner) informs me they have plans to install some next year. Christine also runs the on site cafe, which is for campers, trout fishermen and anyone else. Breakfast was superb. Thank you for your fabulous customer service and wicked sense of humour. Will certainly be back.

Local attractions

The Time Machine (five minutes’ drive), in Bromyard, ought to appeal to all fans of ‘Doctor Who’, whether their favourite Doctor is Tom Baker or Ncuti Gatwa. Displays include Daleks, Cybermen and original costumes from the popular TV series, plus puppets from ‘Thunderbirds’ and ‘Star Wars’-related exhibits. A lively city full of independent shops and cafés, Hereford (half an hour) is known for its splendid cathedral, which houses the Mappa Mundi and a rare example of a chained library dating from the 17th century. The half-timbered Black and White House Museum displays a collection of Jacobean-era items. The cathedral in Worcester (35 minutes) is also well worth a visit, with its colourful stained-glass windows and the tomb of the 13th-century Plantagenet ruler King John. After the cathedral, take a short stroll along the River Severn to the Museum of Royal Worcester, where you can admire exquisite locally produced porcelain.
