What A Great Place To Stay

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

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.

Excellent CL

Stayed for 3 nights, very quiet and peaceful, open views and excellent dog walks straight from the site. Grass well mown and pitches clearly marked. Right on the edge of the village of Marsh Baldon which is a very pretty village. Owner of site very friendly and welcoming. Had a good meal at the Seven Stars in the village and an excellent Sunday lunch at the Coach and Horses at Chiselhampton while doing a circular walk. The Crazy Bear at Stadhampton is also walkable to and worth a visit - definitely crazy!! All in all, can highly recommend and we will certainly return.

Quiet country CL

When we initially arrived we were very concerned that all the pitches were taken. But Mr Wells quickly arrived and explained that due to a medical emergency one of the vans needed to stay longer than planned. We set up off grid for the night in a large space opposite the vans and by 9:30 the next morning we were on our allotted pitch. The site is well situated both for Oxford and for walking directly out onto Oxfordshire’s footpaths with two great pubs just a short walk away. We will certainly look to stay here again as it ticks all the boxes of a great site.

Fantastic CL

Fantastic CL and surroundings. Extremely well tended. Ron was very accommodating and we will definitely be returning. We have stayed at a lot of CLs in our time and this is one of the best. Thank you for a very pleasant stay.

A little gem of a site

A little gem of a site, easy access, good size pitches , firm and level ground. SO peaceful, with views across fields where we saw Muntjacs running around and also partridges coming up to the gate into next field ..Lovely walks just outside of gate entrance, along the Bridle paths into rolling fields and beautiful country views for miles. Perfect place and only 4 miles from our home !! Lovely welcome from the owner Mr Wells, and we will be returning very soon

Lovely peaceful site

Directions to the site were perfect. We arrived at 4pm and there were 3 other spots already taken but this didn't matter as there was plenty of room to set up. We spent a very pleasant 2 nights here, listening to owls at night at watching the stars and amazing moon. It's very handy for Oxford and Abingdon areas. We will be back.

Peaceful Site

Completely agree with all the other reviews. Recommended by friends who had moved to the village just a few weeks before. Very peaceful site. Lots of walks nearby. Pub within easy walking distance. A lovely find in a beautiful village setting.
