History

History of the GTRCP

Gloucester Tops Caravan Park is family owned and operated.

The Watson family were the first settlers in Gloucester Tops in 1881. Frank Watson (our grandfather) had the vision of the Caravan Park in the early 1970s and jumped through hoops with council to get the park opened and operational in the 1980s. Prior to the Caravan Park, the land was a swamp/farmland. Through the 1990's to 2022, both Cambell and Sue Watson ran the park, upgrading the facilities and the entire camp site to get the park where it is today. 

Today, the 5th generation of the Watson family, Jesse and Hannah Watson have taken over the ropes, and are the 3rd generation to operate the park. With Sue & Cambell still in the background, we are proud to say we are a family owned, and operated business.
