Marina Base Camp - camping site and stop over for motorhomes and camper vans

If your after posh and well manicured steer clear. If your after calm, tranquility and an amazing welcome this is a little gem of a site. Can't wait for out next visit.

This is a work in progress motorhome stopover with a toilet to use, water available, waste and Elsan emptying point. It is a small area next to the main business and behind an industrial estate. But, once parked up on the artificial grass you are in the most tranquil of settings right on the bank of the canal where you can watch the family of swans ducks and kingfishers all go about their business. No noise at all from the nearby industrial estate. Lovely walk down to lydney harbour and only a short walk to Lydney Town. Close to the main rail station and steam railway, you cant beat the sound of a steam train in the distance. Don't expect manicured grass or a huge camping field, its a small area next to the canal, plenty of space to put your awning up. With continued improvements this site can only get better, screening to businesses and better facilities are all planned.

We haven't stayed there since they made it an official site but did so on occasion before when we had work done on the motorhome and actually said at the time, we love having the motorhome serviced because this place is so peaceful. Lovely couple so wish them all the best with this project. Jamie & Yong.
