Date of Visit: May 2025
Overall View
Green Pastures CL is situated on the outskirts of the village of Wormington, a short 5 minutes’ drive from the world-famous Broadway Village, gateway to the Cotswolds. Access is straightforward, please see arrival video HERE. The CL is to the rear of a working smallholding with horses and stables.
A comprehensive welcome leaflet is provided, and the owners are on hand to assist you if required. They are both very friendly and helpful – nothing is too much trouble.
Facilities
Each pitch has an EHU, this is metered, 10 units are provided at the start of your stay and this lasted all week.
A water tap is available in the CL field; grey water is permitted to be disposed of in the hedge line.
There is an exclusive use domestic shower and toilet/wash hand basin provided in the stable yard and are kept immaculately cleaned.
Dogs are permitted but must be kept on a lead at all times due to the horses. It is possible to exercise the dogs off site but note the road does not have a pavement. There are plenty of waymarked footpaths in the vicinity which you can use.
A dedicated CDP is situated in the yard along with waste disposal including recycling..
The site is family friendly, and children are welcome.
Mobile data/WiFi showed a strong 5G with EE. Vodafone showed above average with 4G and intermittent 5G. There is no site Wi-Fi.
TV signal was well above average using the vans onboard aerial.
Review of Site Pitch
The site is laid to grass and is level – I did not need ramps. You are free to choose where you pitch, provided you observe the 6m rule and do not block the views of fellow caravanners. You should note that all EHU points are on one side of the field – if you wish to park on the opposite side, nearer the open view and the horse paddocks, you will require an extension to the EHU lead. Grass was kept at a good level and awnings are permitted as long as carpets are regularly lifted.
Around and about
There is so much to do both in the immediate and further afield areas. that you are almost spoilt for choice, depending upon your interests and level of activity. I have chosen a small selection of places to visit/see and do. I would strongly advise you spend some time with either a guidebook or online, web addresses below and see what is on offer. www.cotswolds.info/
The village of Broadway has a lovely wide high street, with a range of independent and more familiar shops providing everything you would want. Diners will be spoilt for choice with a comprehensive range of pubs, hotel dining, restaurants, and cafes. You should note that if you select somewhere off the main high street, prices can be cheaper. The village is very dog friendly, and many establishments will welcome your dogs without problem. Children are also welcomed in most places. www.broadway-cotswold.uk
Now that the extension of the Gloucestershire and Warwickshire Railway to Broadway has been operating for some time now, it is an integral part of the village. There is parking adjacent, fee payable and takes no more than 5 minutes in the car from the CL. You actually pass under the railway on the way to the CL. You can hear the whistle from the train as it passes, if the wind is in the right direction. There is now building underway again to complete the Station restoration – building a waiting room on Platform 2. There are a variety of special events throughout the year – please see their website above.
This is a famous local landmark which overlooks the village at the top of the high street. It is possible to walk either uphill, (steep in places) or downhill from the village. There is plenty of parking available at the landmark, café, shops, and toilets. A bus does drop you off at the end of the lane to the attraction and is about a ¼ mile walk from the bus stop.
There is limited car parking – at charge next door to the Tower – here you will find a renovated barn serving delicious home cooked food and drinks. There is a small shop attached selling local gifts.
I have included this webpage as it is an area which can often be overlooked as people focus on the Cotswolds. The Vale of Evesham is a huge fruit growing area and, in the summer,, there are Plum Festivals held in the villages, and you can buy as much fruit and veg as you could wish to eat. The town of Evesham is the nearest to the site and has the usual out of centre retail park, featuring the usual mix of offerings. Fuel can also be obtained here at supermarket prices.
Here it is possible to walk along part of the River Avon and there are boat trips available during the appropriate seasons. A lovely park is adjacent which has parking and holds fun fairs at various times of the year.
Summary
Green Pastures CL is a superb site, it’s proximity to Broadway and the Cotswolds make it very attractive. I will certainly return again.
