  • Cosy Warwickshire farm site
  • A couple of minutes' drive from Twycross Zoo
  • Dogs and barbecues allowed
Slap, bang and exceedingly central: if you like to burrow deep into countryside for a good time and still be glitteringly close to towns, cities and well-known attractions, Gopsall Hall Farm is the place to be. A base for you and the kids – and the dogs – at Gopsall Hall Farm will put your holiday party a couple of minutes from Twycross Zoo and less than six miles from Bosworth Battlefield Heritage Centre and the National Forest. The city lights of Leicester are about 45 minutes’ drive to the east, Derby about an hour north, and the galleries and museums of busy Birmingham about half an hour away – just as well the set-up back at base is delectable… Each canvas glamping unit has electric hook-up and sleeps up to five humans and three dogs; bed linen is provided but please bring your own sleeping bags and towels. Barbecues are allowed on site, and each unit also comes with an outdoor firepit to use free of charge. No need to bring plates or utensils either: potter over to The Barn, a heated communal space with a small kitchen and dining area. The kitchen is only provided for bell tent guests, but those staying on the other pitches have access to luxury showers and hairdryers (better keep the barnet in tip(i)-top condition for all those nearby day trips).

No. 30 electric grass pitch

Liked: Nice open grass site, away from roads so it was nice and quiet. Toilet and shower facilities were well maintained. There's an onsite bar and a nice farm shop nearby if you want some meats. Pitches are well marked with plenty of room.

Disliked: There aren't many convenient shops near by, making a car quite necessary. not the campsite's fault, just be prepared.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Many thanks for the great review, we are hoping to stock some shop essentials from 2024 onsite so keep an eye out for updates. Thanks! :-)

No. 30 electric grass pitch

Liked: Toilet and showers excellent. This was our first trip camping in over 20 years and it was lovely to have a really good shower in a lovely and clean facility.

Disliked: Minor thing but would of been helpful to have information provided about local amenities such as shop pubs etc and when they opened and served food. Also the washing up area has a very strange step to sink which was a bit of a trip hazzard for me. The pitch up website also said local produce on sale on site. This is not accurate.

From the manager: Many thanks for the great review. Pleased to say we are working on all the enhancement areas. Hopefully you will come back and see. Thanks! :-)

No. 31 electric grass pitch

Liked: The whole place was beautiful but the toilets were exceptionally clean and very modern. The owners sent over a very detailed email to ensure our safe arrival and understanding of the area and rules of the campsite which was very helpful!

Disliked: I would of said the only downside was it is an operational farm and sometimes you could hear tractors late at night but otherwise little noise pollution and everything was so clean and tidy.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Many thanks for the great review. I think you stayed around harvest time so that could have been us or neighbouring farmers :-)

Bell tent

Liked: Bell tents and site

Disliked: Toilet and kitchen facilities lacking in fridge numbers and washing and showering considering numbers could be upto 35 in bell tents.Very reliant on barbecues which can’t be used in poor weather-only one cooker!

From the manager: Many thanks and great feedback. Pleased to say we have some upgrades in plan for the bell tent field :-)

Local attractions

To the zoo! Less than two miles from base, Twycross Zoo and World Primate Centre is the only place in the UK where visitors can gibber to all species of great ape among its thousand or so residents from 200 species. The zoo has a nature reserve and soft play area too to swing around in, and daily activities like keeper talks and animal feeds (wave at the meerkats when they pop up for supplies each morning and the penguins waddling around each afternoon). Twycross is at Atherstone, Gopsall Hall Farm’s local town on the border with Leicestershire – the Coventry Canal runs through town too to snap scenic shots along the towpath including ones of the Coventry Art Trail, public pieces put up here by local artists. Since Rick 3 was rediscovered in 2012 under a Leicestershire car park, interest in the possibly-bad king has skyrocketed, so make room for a day at Bosworth Battlefield Heritage Centre to find out all the up-to-date info. (Sadly, however, whether he did bump off his nephews in the Tower is still a matter of fierce academic debate). Townwise, Market Bosworth and Ashby-de-la-Zouch, possible adolescent home of one Mr Adrian Mole, Esq, are both within ten to 15 miles for additional day trips: make it midweek for the former as Bosworth’s Wednesday market has been running since the 13th century.
