Great CL with lovely walks

Durham Leys Farm
This is a really nice CL, access is very easy, following the directions given and helped by the fact that the turn towards the village is within a 20mph speed limit, between the entrance and exit gates of Harcourt Arboretum (which is well worth a visit, especially in bluebell season). The site is a good sized paddock, flat and level and even after a full night of rain we and a large motorhome got off without issues. The pitches are clearly marked with EHU close by and water and tipping points were fine, with waste and recycling bins on the access driveway. There are a myriad of footpaths and bridleways surrounding the site and we did two lovely loop walks from the site. We also visited Greys Court NT and Waterperry Gardens, both about 30mins away and the arboretum, which you could walk to easily enough. Loads of wildlife around the site, kites, woodpecker and muntjac to name a few. Ron the owner drove over to meet us as we arrived and popped over again the next day and was very friendly. Nothing to fault at all and just what we want in a CL.

What A Great Place To Stay

Durham Leys Farm
As the title says, this is a great little CL in the Oxfordshire country side. The site is level, flat and quite sheltered. Ron is very friendly, knowledgeable about all sorts, amiable and chatty too, so you are made to feel welcome. We had a very windy start to the week but the weather got better the longer we stayed. Lots of national Trust Houses and places to visit and not more than an hours drive away and Oxford is easily accessible by the Park and Ride, a short journey away. The local pub in the village does excellent fish and chips (a bit pricey but well worth it) and other food too. Good atmosphere. In short, we shall definitely return to this little gem of a site. Great for a quiet week and the sheep are friendly too; they are great to watch, especially when the shepherd drops in to feed them !!. Martin and Susan, Caravanners.

We had another lovely peaceful stay on this cl. It was tranquil even on the August Bank Holiday weekend. Open views of fields, lovely walks from site with evening sunsets. Ron is very welcoming and helpful. He keeps the field in good order. We will definitely be back and would recommend this site if you want a peaceful stay in the Oxfordshire countryside with easy access to the city.

Lovely peaceful site

Durham Leys Farm
Great little spot. Simple, beautiful, peaceful... lovely village with a nice pub (and another nice pub a short drive away) and very close to Oxford. We have family nearby so this will definitely be the regular base we're looking for.
