Family camping in
the Cotswolds

The Cotswolds hardly needs selling: England's largest Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, all honey-coloured villages, rolling wolds and film-set high streets. What is less well known is how good its family camping has become. Campsites here come with climbing walls, rare breed farm parks, pick-your-own orchards and village pubs that genuinely welcome muddy children.

Our Cotswold picks stretch from Cirencester's lakes up to Winchcombe's orchards. Camp beside Adam Henson's farm park, walk the Cotswold Way to a ruined abbey, or let the kids loose on the water at the Cotswold Water Park.
