Thame...in the heart of England

John and Allie, the owners, are most welcoming and this CL is flat, well drained, exceptionally well maintained, 5 minutes easy walk in to the town centre, borders the River Thame, and is such a find that on the one hand I want everyone to know about it, but on the other wanted to keep it such a secret that no one would book it ahead of me! Dog friendly. Mains hookup and water to each of the 5 pitches. Excellent walking and cycling country. Thame boasts some good eateries, too. We will return. 5 stars on all counts.

On the edge of Thame

Just returned from another 12 nights in this glorious location. An easy approach and a warm welcome from John, meant we were soon setup on our fully serviced pitch. Once through the electric gates, a new view opens up of a well kept grass area, the river at the back, free roaming chickens and bird song. It is a short walk into town and to either Waitrose or Sainsburys, and a good selection of shops, many being independent. We had a lovely meal in The Coffee House (near town hall), and there are a good selection of walks around the area, with maps available at the information point on the CL. Our visit coincided with the 10th anniversary of the death of Robin Gibb, who lived in the town and is buried in the local churchyard, and to mark the event the local museum and Robins wife Dwina have setup a display of some of his personal items, including bikes, awards and clothing, and lots of family photos. It is free admission and well worth a visit, and the museum staff are very welcoming and friendly. Out and about there are some lovely places to visit, Brill Windmill, Aylesbury, Haddenham Church and duck pond, and the Oxford P&R was fairly easy to use. (Don't use the obvious parking payment machines, but use the one machine near where you catch the bus from) which was £6.80 for parking and return bus to city centre (about 20 minute journey). This was our 2nd visit to this CL and certainly won't be our last.

Another lovely stay

We enjoyed our previous stay at this CL so much we decided to come back again but this time our friends came too in their motorhome. Having water and EHU on each pitch made setting up quick and easy and we were soon able to enjoy the peace and tranquility, only interrupted by the Church clock striking and the birds flying over head. Thame is a short walk away with plenty of shops to browse around and there was cricket being played on the field in front of the church. John and Alison are very friendly and this CL is one of our top 5. We will certainly be back.

A most enjoyable week in Thame area.

A warm welcome was received from John to his well maintained CL. Grass is cut regularly and is really like a lawn. 3 Pitches with running water. Quiet and pleasant outlook. CL is very close to town, 10 minutes walk, also Waitrose very close by. Plenty of local pubs and I believe 2 Italian restaurants in town. Market day is Tuesday. Waste disposal and Grey water facilities are a good standard. Site is protected by electric gates at all times. Could be sodden ground for motorhomes in very wet weather, otherwise solid. 5 loose and very friendly chickens on site which means that you do sometimes need to look where you are treading! Plenty of Red kites locally and we saw the local fox in the field 3 times.

Home from home

I could not rate this site anymore. It really felt like a home from home. Jon was extremely friendly and very willing to help/ find the right spot for us. The pictures to this site do not show it’s true beauty and how perfect the location is. From being on the edge of the river with a platoon down to it (perfect for those who have Kayaks) to being just on the edge of an active and historical town. Despite this, the site is tranquil and quiet making you forget how central you actually are. I cannot wait to go back and for longer next time!

Very enjoyable

We spent a week at this lovely place. Easy to find and very welcoming owners. Sites are spacious and each has own water (and blackberries). We enjoyed sitting by the river watching the goslings/moorhens/red kites and kingfisher after we'd done a day of sightseeing NT locations in the local area - lots to see and do. Thame is a lovely English town and is a good Midsomer Murder location with the village green, cricket pitch, church (and bells), with a Sainsbury ..... and a Waitrose both just 5 minutes away!!

A really great stopover

We stayed for one night whilst travelling east to west across the country. The site was easy to find a brilliantly situated for an evening meal. Thame has lots to offer, we ate at the Black Horse and had a lovely meal. There is a little noise from the road but not noticed once cosy inside the van. John was very welcoming and helpful with directions and suggestions. We’d definitely stay here again.

Delightful

This site is just as described. Well kept, peaceful, river running by, very short walk to shops including Waitrose! We were very sorry we had only booked a night but will go back.
