There has been much heat generated online recently about the single track access road to the site, shared by users of the cricket and tennis clubs farther down the lane beyond the site. My experience was a good one: no problems when arriving and good observation when leaving avoided meeting a parcel delivery driver at 9.00am. However it is easy to see why it causes chaos at times. There are two blind corners, a couple of just-about-adequate passing places (for one unit to use) and immovable nasty looking stones to damage vehicles. Reading the interpretation board about this lane it is wonderful that a wildlife corridor has been created and I applaud the reason behind it, but with a little thought and some imaginative planning it would have been easy to make it a little wider and with better passing places. So the site itself: hard standing pitches are smaller than normal here and many van owners with awnings had to park their vehicles across the head of the pitch adjacent to the road. Some late arriving members had considerable trouble finding a vacant pitch on a full site and enlisted the help of wardens in their task. Several vans provide fast food, the burger van was particularly good, the fish and chip horse box van had the most greasy chips I’ve ever had and I didn’t try the South African offering, one member told me he didn’t like it. Cirencester is a modest walk away either through the estate (rumours a charge may be made in the future) or via the main road. The market was on one of the days I was there and it was a very pleasant destination to stroll around. I ate in The Crown one evening and the portion of food I received was enormous. £4.95 for a pint of lager. Access to Cotswold Airport is easy which suited me as I was flying from there on two days. There is a nice cafe at the airport although it is a quiet airport compared with Gloucester where the cafe there has direct sight of the apron and runway and is an interesting place to go if you like aviation. The warning email I received from the Caravan Club about booking and going elsewhere because of the noise from overnight building work was ignored by me and I think most other members and there was no noise that I heard. I was delighted to have missed the neighbouring college’s summer ball which on a previous occasion kept me awake all night. I hope you enjoy your stay here and have good luck with lane as I did.
