Travelling with children changes what you need from a hotel — more space, more flexibility, and somewhere that doesn’t feel like a compromise for any member of the family. Oakwood Hotel, just outside Gloucester in Twigworth, offers a comfortable, well-equipped base for families travelling from Upton upon Severn.
Our rooms are designed for comfort whether you’re booking as a couple, a family with young children, or a larger group needing more than one room. Full details are on our rooms page. Being on the outskirts of Gloucester also means easier parking and a calmer setting than a busy city-centre hotel — genuinely useful when you’re managing prams, luggage, and children all at once.
Oakwood’s location makes it a practical base for families visiting or based near Upton upon Severn, roughly 20 to 25 minutes away by car. Whether you’re here for a family visit, a short break, or simply want somewhere comfortable outside the busier parts of the city, our setting offers a proper retreat to come back to after a day out.
Mealtimes matter as much as the room itself when travelling with children, and our dining options are set up with that in mind. The Pub offers a relaxed atmosphere and a menu that works well for both adults and children — more detail is on our dining page. Breakfast is also available for hotel guests, a genuinely useful start to a busy day.
Family stays benefit from having somewhere to unwind outside the room itself, and Oakwood offers exactly that — The Drawing Room for a quieter coffee, and The Terrace when the weather allows, giving children room to move around without needing to leave the grounds.
If you need adjoining rooms or have specific requirements — a cot, an extra bed, ground floor access — mention these when you book. We’d also recommend booking ahead during school holidays and peak weekends.
