This was our first outing with our campervan and we could not have wished for a better introduction to our new lifestyle. We hope all future sites are as good as this is. Friendly owners, clean, spacious and hassle-free. We experienced all weathers and despite the heavy rain we requested an extra night on the spur of the moment. Julie was very accommodating so we extended our stay in the beautiful Cotswolds.
Excellent CL
Very well run and equipped site with friendly and helpful management. Ideal location for local walking and cycling and for visiting Cotswolds. Highly recommended.

Wonderful relaxing stay
We stayed here last month on an unusually hot and sunny weekend, it's such a restful site with beautiful countryside views on the outskirts of a pretty Cotswold village. The owner was very welcoming and friendly, as were our fellow campers. It's an easy walk along the roads from the site into Bibury, although the owner told us of the off road route we didn't try it. Spacious grass pitches have water and electric hook up. We had great fun at the Trout Farm, feeding the fish, there's plenty of space and tables there for a picnic and brick built BBQs can be rented but they were very popular so probably book up in advance. Will definitely return.

Beautiful farmland near the most beautiful village
A most welcoming CL with flat grassy areas, well spaced and with electricity and water at each site. A short walk to the village of Bibury, said to be the most beautiful in England. Excellent all round

Top class
Lovely warm welcome in a lovely countryside spot. Campervan my home, so brief stay not really a holiday (hence didn't explore local attractions, etc) but Orchard Lodge a top class staging post on my way north. Loved that water and electricity literally on your doorstep - all you need, experiencing in this Covid era we're onboard self-sufficient.

Great little cl. We were supposed to be there a couple of weeks before on the meadow site but weather was very wet and the owner kindly allowed us to postpone and move to the orchard as it had hardstanding if the weather persisted.
Fro the techies, 4g comes and goes as does the site wifi. Its useable but don't rely on it! Tv signal is good
Site is walking distance to Bibury with pubs and well worth a wander round including the fish farm. For the geocachers amongst us, a couple of really good circuits to be had. Also made good walks.
We will be back!
Perfect CL
We were delighted with a week spent at Orchard Meadow, there is nothing you could be negative about here. Spacious field with views, meticulously kept and easily accessed. Peter and Julie were very friendly and helpful but not intrusive. Covid precautions were in place, and each pitch is supplied with EHU and own water supply. Wifi is provided although on the furthest pitch from the house it was quite sketchy! Still, that wasn't a big issue and improvements are planned. Handy maps provided which we used for a fabulous walk into Bibury via a back route. We're fairly local so we know the area and can recommend the local scenery and attractions. We particularly recommend Cotswold Sculpture Park near Cirencester. We will certainly be back and can't recommend this site too highly.
A little Gem
What a beautiful well kept and well managed site. Julie and Peter were most welcoming and could not do enough to make sure we were happy and settled. Nothing was too much bother. We stayed in both the Orchard Lodge and the Meadow as we extended our stay. With plenty of space with only 5 pitches within the acre site it was truly tranquil. That is not to say there wasn't any road noise as there was a bit but it was country road noise that disappeared the more we relaxed. On the edge of Bibary Village where you can view the Arlington Cottages as featured in our passports, it is a short walk of 0.6 of a mile with a handy pub with lovely garden on the way. Julie and Peter also provided a couple of maps for short walks from the site. Cannot recommend these sites enough. We will definitely be back!

Tuely Lovely
We have now visited twice, and will definately visit again. Lovely spacious site with a warm welcome without feeling watched by the owners. There are lots of local attractions within easy reach, and you can walk to the local village. Definitely recommend.
Perfect CL!
What more can you ask of a site? Perfectly situated for exploring the Cotswolds.An extremely well kept and spacious field with water/ hook up for each pitch.Peaceful views of the countryside and minimal traffic on the adjacent road. Incredibly warm welcome from Peter with lots of useful information especially on local walks. Great meal at the local pub within walking distance.
Highly recommended.
