There are loads of campsites around there mate, if you dont find one for some reason try Malvern. Malvern is gorgeous

+1 I know of caravan parks in Upton but not campsites. If you want a luxury capsite a few miles away there is the Malvern Camping & Caravan Club Site. I believe they accept non members. Decent showers, decent surfaces etc.

Worcester not Upton, but only about 10 miles down the road, site is on the river severn & has a pub at the hill above, you go up the steps about 100 ft.
Mixed tourers, statics & takes tents, small private park, very nice, easy to get to & short trip into town by bus etc.

Best of luck, OG

Guess you already know, but if not upton is not really a town, small village, about 10 pubs but only v. small supermarket few local shops, you would have to travel to Malvern or Worcester or Tewkesbury to get to anywhere meaningful ( no offence to Upton). Depends what you are looking for.
Upton, pubs grass & queit only.
Worcester/Malvern/Tewkesbury - shops, bars, rest. swimming pools etc.etc.etc.

PS only live in Worcester don't work for tourist board or anything.

I don't know Upton at all,
My 4 year old daughter is dancing in the upton folk festival with her Irish dancing troupe on Sunday the 3rd of May, so I thought we might make a camping trip out of it to save on the 200 mile round trip in one day
