This year we came back and nothing had changed, the road was worse, and the disabled toilet was still not accessible for a wheelchair.
And one big thing no wildlife! The area that had all the wild birds nesting now has a wooden hut with a high fence round it to rent out. Such a disappointment for the wildlife side of things :(.
And to top it off we didn’t realise on booking but the price had gone up by £86 on last year. With no sign on why the increase other than to build a shepherds hut, I get fees go up but that’s ridiculous.
Lovely area, peaceful and the night sky was beautiful. Located close to go ape and nature trail walks, also park in site which the kids enjoyed.
Will definitely come back next year.
The onsite food was lovely and a super touch.
The walk into Coleford was very easy and beautiful with some lovely little local shops.
I would recommend this site 100%, you will not regret it.
A special mention and a huge thank you to the owners, who were absolutely amazing when our car broke down. They went above and beyond to help us, and their kindness, support and understanding made a stressful situation so much easier. We’re incredibly grateful for everything they did for us — it really shows how much they care about their guests.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Greenacres Campsite to others. We’ll definitely be back! 😊
Upon arriving the staff were fantastic and very friendly. The pitch we had was very clean and tidy. The 10pm noise cutoff is perfect for having some nice downtime.
The location of the campsite is beautiful close enough to the town but far enough away to not hear the main road..
The amenities were also very clean and tidy. No faults whatsoever.
Would 100% recommend to anyone, locally or on holiday.
The price I paid for 1 night was perfect and very cheap.
This time in one of the Bell Tents.
The staff cannot do enough for you!
The young ladies in the shop make the best brews & coffee.
The facilities are spotless.
The campsite was decorated for a rally which we attended and they just went above and beyond.
None of the myriad of instruction signs I’ve seen recently at other larger sites - “do this” - “don’t do that” - just enough information for all visitors to be safe, and not feel like we are at school. Can you tell 100’s of instruction signs are a pet hate of mine? 😂
I can recommend the pizza night - preorder and collect on reception. Very well organised.
All in all, I loved it and will definitely be returning in 2027, for a longer stay.
Well done Greenacres Team 👍
The campsite itself is clean, tidy and very well looked after. The shower and toilet facilities were spotless, which always makes such a difference when camping. There is also a great on-site shop with a really good selection of essentials, and the food was excellent — perfect when you don’t fancy cooking in the morning.
The real highlight, though, was the staff. Everyone we met was incredibly friendly, welcoming and helpful. Nothing seemed too much trouble, and they really made us feel at home.
Overall, a lovely campsite with great facilities, a fantastic location and, most importantly, wonderful staff. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back!
It’s also great for families and is dog friendly, which is a big bonus. The campsite is close to Coleford, a lovely little town with a good selection of shops, pubs and plenty of places to eat.
This was our second visit to Greenacres, and we enjoyed it just as much as the first. We’ve already booked again for next year and are looking forward to coming back! 😊🏕️🐾
Would definitely recommend Greenacres for a relaxing break. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Awesome atmosphere
Clean as pitch
Good value for money
Very clean showers and toilets
Absolutely strict standards no noise policy after 11:00pm , because very well managed and friendly helpful behaviour from management team which we all respect to quiet time policy..
Plenty to do around the area which make it highly tractive camp site,
From arrival to departure Maureen and her lovely team make you feel so welcome. It’s a lovely peaceful location and an easy walk into the centre of Coleford.
This site has everything you need. A well stocked reception offering hot drinks and food and pizzas sold some nights as well as a visiting burger van.
Toilets and showers are spotlessly clean and well looked after. Pitches are large and a great play area for the kids.
Greenacres is located perfectly for the Wye Valley and South Wales.
A huge thanks to Maureen and her team for making our stay so lovely.

“Lovely site in a lovely area”
We only stayed overnight as the weather had turned very wet so we decided to head for home. Greenacres was a wonderful contrast to the very basic campsite we’d come from further south & we’ll definitely return next year. Despite the heavy rain the facilities were very clean & are of a high quality. The Forest of Dean is beautifully wooded with footpaths everywhere & we fancy canoeing along the river Wye too. No Wifi & the whole area seemed to be a bit of a mobile phone black hole though!

“Weekend for walking”
First time at Greenacres and thoroughly enjoyed the surroundings and walking through The Forest of Dean which was made even better by coming back to the site to sit around a fireplace on a lovely autumnal evening. Site was busy but quiet and well kept. Would highly recommend Greenacres.

“Wonderful campsite, a hidden gem”
Ideal campsite to explore Forest of Dean and surrounding area. Flat and spacious pitches for tents, electric hook-up, modern and clean facilities, quiet site. We loved our stay and will definitely return. COVID 19 precautions and extra cleaning helped make us feel safe during our stay.

“Lovely small friendly campsite”
Good clean facilities. Friendly staff. Very tidy and well looked after site. Good field space for games etc. Barbecue rental and wood available. Plenty of walks direct from site. Couple of decent pubs nearby.

“Great Location”
Great location, walks straight from the site into the forests or into town (The town is very functional but a little sad looking, this may be due to the current situation.) The sites facilities where very well managed and the best we have seen during the covid crisis and that includes club sites. The site was very dog friendly but I must say the 3 stiles we had to negotiate for the town walk and forest walk were NOT dog friendly and would be very difficult if our dog was any bigger, but this is probably no fault of the sites but of the owners of the land you walk through. Overall a very pleasant stay and great facilities, thank you.
