A lovely peaceful place
Mansell Farm
We have just got back from 11 nights on this cl and found it nearly perfect. Just 3 pitches with electric and 2 without. Very easy access to water and emptying point, grey water into the hedgerow. The site is much changed from the pictures as the hedge by the field is now much higher than the caravans, which was a boon for us as it sheltered us from the high winds for the first few days of our stay, and made putting up the awning really easy. The whole area around is lovely with plenty to do. Being so far from any main road made it incredibly quiet, shame about the cow that decided to keep the whole area aware of its presence during the daytime. The only downsize for us was the 600yds of farm track to go down from the road to the site, not rutted or potholed just very very dusty. Mind you once down it the village was very close and the roads in the area gave fantastic easy access to anywhere you might want to go. We will be back.
Perfect for a quiet getaway
Mansell Farm
We booked a couple of days before as a stop over on our way home. Spent 2 nights on this lovely CL. 3 pitches with EHU and 2 without, all grass pitches. Bins (and recyling bin) and CDP point easy for all pitches. Space to walk dogs. Well away from main road so lovely and quiet, TV and mobile signal good. The village pub was friendly and did good food and beer and a easy walk from site, also a village shop which we didn't get around to going to. We would go again if in the area. An excellent site for the money and Kellie was a great with local knowlege.
One of the very best
Mansell Farm
We've just returned from a short break at this site. We chose it because of its proximity to Stratford as we had theatre tickets but it's one of the nicest sites we've ever stayed on. We had the pick of the three pitches with EHU as, surprisingly there were no other bookings and we had it to ourselves. All we could hear was the sound of the birds and Richard (the owner) bringing in the hay. We can thoroughly recommend Mansell Farm if you want somewhere that's peaceful and quiet but only a short distance from Stratford and the Cotswolds.
We'll definitely return.
If you want a peaceful sheltered site, look no further
Mansell Farm
We arrived at this lovely peaceful CL in the first week of July 2024 after several days of heavy rain. The farm track from the main road is good and not at all uneven if taken at a careful speed. The CL site is on well maintained grass and was dry when we arrived and we had no problems with siting our Motorhome on one of the three pitches with EHU.
The site is very peaceful and well sheltered from any prevailing winds behind the hedges which have grown substantially since the current photos were taken. Lots of wild birds and the occasional squirrel frequent the site and apparently deer also visit although we didn’t see any of the later.
We have been able to leave our MH on site and use public transport to visit nearby Cotswold villages as well as Stratford-Upon-Avon and local National Trust properties during our stay. Recommend using Google Maps or similar for guidance.
A thoroughly recommended CL and we will definitely stay here again if we are in the area.
