Our Favourite Site

We have visited this site many times, always our go to site. This year we have made ourselves visit many other sites, all excellent but on returning back to Burford we both agree this remains our favourite. Starting with a lovely warm welcome at reception to generous sized pitches and spotless facilities, it was so good to be back. The wildlife park opposite is a great day out for both adults and children and the club is superb for cycling from, quiet country lanes and beautiful villages all with excellent watering holes. Love it!

A tale of two sites !!!

We were booked in to Cirencester Park from 9th to 16th July which was our 4th time of staying at this site. However, if you expect a warm welcome - forget it!! A staff member was extremely rude and when we spoke to the warden/assistant warden she said he would be very upset to hear this. Nothing about how upset my wife and I were. We asked to have a refund for the rest of our time as we didn't wish to stay any longer. That evening we located an alternative site at Burford and what a difference!!! The ladies on reception greeted us with genuine warmth The male wardens couldn't have been nicer and more helpful even in blistering heat trying to help me unhitch my car which had jammed to the caravan. When it couldn't be mended by them they arranged for an engineer to come the next day. For the remainder of our stay until Thursday they were brilliant - we could not recommend them enough - and that's what a holiday is all about - it's not just the facilities ( which were by the way excellent) - it's about the people. Cirencester is sadly lacking in this regard ( but we did meet a nice member of the team there) and we won't be going back. Burford - we can't wait to stay with you again next year. Many thanks!!

Weeds

This could be a lovely site but the pitches could do with some maintenance such as a bit of weeding, we had two foot weeds growing on the pitch. Also if your not lucky enough to have a pitch around the edge then prepared for inconsiderate people using your pitch as a short cut, on the up side the wardens are some of the most friendly we have ever met and the shower facilities are immaculate.

Brilliant Burford

Another enjoyable short (3days) stay at Burford with its many outstanding places to visit. We find the site always clean and well maintained the shower block etc again clean and accessible to all members irrespective of their mobility. As my wife falls into the category of being less mobile we requested a pitch reasonably close to the shower block and we were delighted with the location of the pitch. Unfortunately this delight was short lived due to the inconsiderate members who used ‘our’ pitch, and the adjacent one as their own personal short cut to the toilet block. Despite subtle and not so subtle hints it continued throughout our stay even to point where I was reversing the car onto the caravan and another caravanner walked between the car and caravan even though the car was moving! I understand that we only ‘rent’ the pitches for the duration of our stay but I have always believed that when walking around a club site you stuck to the pathways and did not walk across other peoples pitches. Am I in a minority in this belief? or just someone who is out of touch and wanting to hold on to good manners and show consideration for others? When we originally joined, the Caravan Club displayed signs around the sites requesting people not to cross other pitches. Although these signs are not displayed any more surely common sense and consideration for your fellow members should prevail and allow all to enjoy the peace and tranquillity that our hobby provides.

A fabulous site.

We stayed at Burford for 7 nights. This was our second visit. Everything was as we remembered. Only one golden retriever this time but little Harry was new to us and he stood wagging his tail when we arrived at reception. The staff are very kind, helpful and caring, they work very hard to keep the site as it should be. I must add they succeed. We visited the Cotswold Wildlife Park and used the site's reduced ticket price when booking in the reception. The CWP is well worth a visit. We really enjoyed our day there. Witney is a pretty village close by with a good selection of pubs and cafes. Nice shops and a very attractive main street. Cogges Farm is a must for Downton Abby fans, it was the setting for Willow Farm in the series. We did enjoy our visit there. Chastleton House and Garden (NT) is interesting as the house has not been renovated but is as it was when the Trust took it over. The gardens are large with some very old trees in the gardens. We also visited Moreton-in-Marsh and Oxford. I feel sure we will be visiting Burford again,

Great Time At Burford!

We stayed at Burford Caravan Club Site Sun 19th June - Sat 25th June 2022. We stayed here in 2013 too. The site is as we remembered it, a big clean fantastic site. Easy towing access in and out. Toilets clean, staff friendly and helpful. We had a trip to Windsor Castle booked which we did from here which was fantastic. The rest of the week we explored Bourton on the Water including the Motor Museum and The Model Village. We went to Witney, Chipping Norton, Moreton on the Marsh. On our final day we went to the Cotswold Wildlife Safari Park & Gardens which we bought from the Caravan Club Site shop on the day - discounted tickets for members. The Cotswold Wildlife Safari Park & Gardens was brilliant as was our whole week. We had fantastic warm sunny weather and when it did lightly rain near the end of the week we were either in our car driving or in bed asleep! Thank you to the staff at Burford for being so helpful, friendly and welcoming. Thank you to the Caravan Club site for making our week so enjoyable and comfortable. :)

Perfect Wardens

Arrived on site to be met by the most friendly assistant warden instructed to find pitch and return to office to pay. Our whole stay was enhanced by the sites wardens who took the time to talk to us and engaged above and beyond good service. (Gold Medal) The site was spotless and in an ideal location near the wild life park.

Beautiful Burford

Initially booked for 3 nights on the way to the south west ended up staying for 8 due to complete fridge failure on arrival and having to wait for engineer to come out to us. The wardens Anne, Martyn, Ricky and Catherine were exceptional in their help and support, every time we appeared in the office, which was frequently! We were met with a smile and further offers of help. The site itself is fabulous, almost park like, very spacious and peaceful...no grass cutting on a daily basis..bliss. Lovely to see considerate dog owners on this site too, thank you. Facilities very clean. Various food vans on site throughout the week, fish and chips were fantastic. Site in a great spot to visit numerous pretty Cotswold villages and the safari park is across the road from the site too. Will definitely visit again but will take bikes as lots of little lanes to explore. Thanks again to the wardens.

Great site

From initial check in to end of visit, we found the staff and wardens very pleasant, friendly and helpful. The site was really nice and it was great not to have lawn mowers going every day. Couldn't believe they were not used once during our weeks stay. Have been on other sites and its a daily thing. We had a great choice of pitches, plenty of space around us. and the grass pitch was level. Facilities were really clean. Fish and chip van, was great. Tasty fish and well cooked chips. There is also a separate mac n cheese van and pizza van on other nights but we didn't try these. Tickets from reception at discounted price from reception for the Wildlife park which was excellent. Will definitely come to this site again.

Peace, quiet and excellent wardens

We arrived here on Sunday 5th June after curtailing a stay at Chapel Lane club site due to bird scarers petrifying our dog. The site was almost empty and had a lovely calm feeling about it. The wardens were fantastic right from the get go, with lots of information and help. Spotless facilities loads of space and ever attentive wardens were fantastic From reduced tickets to wildlife park to fish and chip van on Tuesday everything was spot on. Special mentions to Cath and her husband for attention to detail and helpfulness Just what we neede
