We visited Bracelands Whitsun weekend 2007 with three children aged 2 to 8. The site had a lovely atmosphere and was in a beautiful woodland setting. All facilities were very clean despite the weather being fairly filthy! Plenty of hot water and minimal queues. The shop at neighbouring Christchurch was a bit too much of a walk to get there often with the little ones, so we resorted to driving up on one occasion, which is clearly not ideal - but it did have an excellent range. Staff throughout the site could not have been more charming and helpful. Loads to do in the surrounding area. Would definitely go again (but might try to get onto the Christchurch site if possible, simply to be closer to shop and play area).

I have been there twice in two years. The surroundings are amazing and the site itself too. It's very large, so it's difficult not to find a nice pitch. Customer service is fine and the shop is very decent. Toilets are not great, quite dirty I'd say and hot water is just boiling. They should do something about it asap. There is a room for washing up, very convenient. Visitors are usually polite and quiet at night. Walks in the forest are just such an experience!

Great weather and walking in forest trails, it's just a shame about the site facilities. Toilet block closest to our tent (serving around 40 pitches) only consisted of 4 toilets and sinks which were not cleaned over the period of our stay and outside there were only 2 sinks for washing up where you could only get cold water, no sign of any warm water. On taking a stroll up to toilet block by Reception - slightly larger with showers, by evening time on the Friday there was only one toilet "flushable" and throughout the rest of the stay there were 3 permanently out of action.

Site shop did seem to have a good stock of items and they also had a facility for refreezing ice packs, well so we thought. We were told to put our packs in a carrier bag with name on and hand over to shop staff and we would get ice packs in return (50p a block !! bit excessive). So between our group we put 7 blocks in on Friday night and had 7 back, good so far. Then in the morning when we went to get ours back (to replenish our cool boxes to keep that beer cool!) we were told that there weren't any there, so what had happened to ours?? Apparently you don't get yours back, it's only an exchange they do, so we were left with no ice blocks for the rest of our stay (as they had none left in the freezer anyway if we wanted to EXCHANGE anymore)

Also it was a bit excessive I think £5 a night to put a gazebo up!

We stayed at the Bracelands site on Fri 29/8/8 and Sat 30/8/8. On arrival we were told the site was full in a fairly blunt way. We proceeded to reception where we were greeted by June (who was friendly and funny and very very helpful) and we managed to get a spot (to be fair there was probably room for another fifty more tents).

As this was my 6-year-old's first time we were nervous about the location and facilities, but we were soon at ease; the toilets and showers were if anything better than needed. Although a good walk to the shop it was enjoyable in the fresh air and scenery of the forest.

The shop is expensive but no more than any other holiday location and there are shops just outside the camp if that concerned about the price.

We had a GREAT pitch right next to the woods with excellent views of the valley and sunset and there was loads of choice.

On the Saturday we walked through the Forest and went to Symonds Yat; it was lovely.

Despite the rain on the Sunday morning we enjoyed the visit and as a test run we were really pleased with the way it went and my son cannot wait to return. As long as you realise this is a campsite and not a holiday resort you will not be disappointed.

I would highly recommend the adventure to anyone.

We visited Bracelands on a lovely September weekend and I have to say it was lovely and relaxing, beautiful scenery, pleasant staff, only let down was that we missed chip shop nearby as we love our Friday fish and chip supper when we go away! They do have a chip van visit but wasn’t aware of one when we went, possibly high season only. We have a shower in our caravan but took advantage of the free hot showers which were fine but none of the hairdryers worked all weekend! Lovely walks through forest. Will be visiting again very shortly once season gets under way, lovely and convenient as we live in Hereford.about 45mins drive.
