Ex C&mC site - Bromyard
For those who liked this site, I past by this site yesterday and noticed it was open under new management. I searched the internet and came up with >this web site< which I think is it.

Interesting that they are planning toilet and shower facilities.

Just under £30 with EHU in Peak, which includes £5.50 a night for EHU for grass or hardstanding. And it looks as if they want all your money upfront?
There's an extra £1.68 (not included in that figure) per night for 'booking protection'. As stated there are no showers or toilets

Its a nice area to stay, National Trust property opposite and the Downs and woodland next door provide excellent walks and views. I only managed to stay there once because of size limits, there was just one pitch suitable for an 8 meter motorhome. 😥 For those who like their craft beer, the Wye Valley brewery is just 5 miles away on the road to Hereford at Stoke Lacy. They do tours.

We stayed there once and, tbh, I failed to see why others praised it so highly.🙁

We have used it a few times, it was a good “transit” stopover for us for 1,2,3 nights, particularly as the dog walking was so good just over the road, and it used to be a fixed price, very cheap Club Site. I think most we ever payed was £14, which included a hook up. We have done some NT properties in the area, so it was good for that.
Just looked on site, and a booking next week, HS+EHU works out at £12 with the £10 discount. Might just be the one night, others a bit dearer, haven’t gone too deep. But good to know it’s still alive and an option. And that you have the option on hook up.

@Fozzie It will be quite an investment so I imagine that it will cost more to stay there. From a members point of view we don't know why the site was closed. It seems its the same as other non facility sites held on a lease. Even if the lease had been extended was it by enough for the Club to make the necessary invesrment? Until we see what the new management actually do we won't know if the Club has missed an opportunity? We stayed there once and found it a nice little site handy for touring the area, it was when we had a caravan, so before the motorhome.

It was our kind of site, especially when we could catch the bus directly outside with our dog, but the bus company banned dogs on their buses, which made it a bit less attractive. Still good walks from it and we will certain consider using it again, if the price is right for us. Thanks @peedee for bringing it to our notice, as OH was wondering, just today, what had happened to it.

I only stayed here once and, looking back at my review, I had mixed feelings about it. I found many pitches to be too small and most of them uneven and I described the whole place as "tired" with a lot of mud around. Hopefully this has changed with a little investment.
I did not like the upper level, but settled in the lower level. I caught the bus one day to Worcester and one day to Hereford; without that option I probably would not stay there. I also mentioned that the walk to Brockhampton (NT) involved very significant gradients; I cycled there on roads, which is longer and was jolly hard work! I confess I have no recollection of that now, but that's what I wrote! I do remember doing a lot of walking in some lovely woods.
Despite apparent negatives, I concluded that I had an enjoyable four day stay at this pretty little site in attractive surrounding countryside. I'd definitely give it a try if I still had my van. 😥

It must have quite a while ago that you visited @Graydjames as the pitches had been enlarged and it certainly wasn't muddy. We have stopped quite a few times there and preferred the upper level, where it was easier to access the way onto the Brockhampton estate, as well as into the woods adjacent to the site.

Yes, you're right, it was in the spring of 2017. I did say that hopefully this has changed.
