Date of Visit: July 2015 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Wellieboots 1 review from this member

 We have just returned from a 3 night stay with a caravan, 2 adults and 2 dogs. We had a tyre blow out on the caravan going to the site and the next day the drive shaft broke on our landrover so we were going to be unable to tow our caravan away. Each time we spoke to the campsite owners they were sympathetic and very helpful. They towed our caravan off the pitch and agreed to look after it until we could return with our car repaired, which gave us one less thing to worry about.

The site is quite small but the pitches are a really good size and easy to get the caravan on along with awning and large vehicle and still have room. It was quite busy when we were there but it did not feel crowded and it certainly was not noisy. It is located in beautiful countryside with lovely views and a walk straight from the site across fields.

The facilities were basic but clean. Two toilets and a shower for both ladies and gentlemen, showers were £1 and had plenty of hot water just had to be careful if somebody flushed the toilet as the water got hotter. There was no smell while we were there. Water was in the middle of the field and EHU at the back of the van.

Loved the donkeys.

We will definitely return.

Reviewer: Westfreds 1 review from this member

 My husband and I have just returned from a most enjoyable weekend in a tent at this campsite. We received a warm welcome, and were left to select our own pitch. At no point over the weekend did the site feel crowded. The facilities were clean: the ladies had 2 toilets and a shower with lovely hot water (£1 buys you 10 minutes in the shower); I assume the gents had the same.

There is a lovely open field for children (and adults) to play.

We spent most of the weekend on our bicycles, and it is quite an easy cycle to and from Oxford - the scenic route along the Thames is quite a bit longer than along the road, but well worth it and traffic free. (A road bike might struggle with the Thames Path in places. )

This campsite is certainly on our list of ones to return to.

Reviewer: Natmac 2 reviews from this member

 We've just returned from 1 night at Valley Farm. We wanted to go and sight see in Oxford and this site is perfectly located! The views from our caravan window were beautiful. We didn't explore the local area due to the time of year but want to go back soon when the weather is a bit warmer.

Lovely welcoming owners, toilets/shower are immaculate! We will definitely be returning.

For anyone wanting to explore Oxford this is a perfect base. 


Date of Visit: September 2014 Unit:  Campervan
Reviewer: Debstetlow 1 review from this member

 We were a family party visiting the site. We had been before in the spring in the rain and the owners had been very helpful and so we returned a second time. My dad was originally put off by the reviews but was pleasantly surprised on arrival. There was a caravan rally at the same time we were on the site and it didn't feel crowded. The toilets were fine and for us there was always toilet paper, although my dad did mention that the showers in the men's were not being wiped down after use (surely as campers we have to take some responsibility). There is a pathway through the rear of the campsite that leads to local village with a pub, the reservoir and nature walk, but it is not immediately obvious so others may have missed it. Moans: No cover on washing up area - have spoken to owner and this is being built this year. Slight smell on second visit - owner advised blocked sewer as they underestimated usage and new one being built over winter in readiness for the next busy season. The smell certainly was not there in the Spring.

This is a new developing campsite and the owners are continuing to listen and improve facilities. It is a nice campsite, relaxed with basic amenities - proper camping ! 


Date of Visit: September 2014 Unit:  Trailer Tent
Reviewer: Penelopehogg 1 review from this member

 This was the most relaxed we have been all year. A great end to our summer, and we were mainly lucky with the weather.

The atmosphere was informal and we felt very at home, the showers and loos were all properly serviced. I don't mind paying for the shower when you know it is going to work, which it did every time.

Good place for a holiday base - to go into Oxford, or visit Woodstock and Blenheim Palace (incredible, though expensive to get in).

This is a special place, very near the city, yet quiet campsite. Our children loved the owners pets to look at - there even seemed to be tame rabbits in the garden.

We will be back next year with more family, a great place to all meet up.

This is a new site, and the owners are ironing out a draining issue, which didn't bother us, and they were good and welcoming hosts.

 Great campsite, this is the second time I have stayed here this year. The toilets and showers are really good. We went this time for a friends 40th birthday with kids too and really enjoyed our stay. What I really like about this campsite is that you are left alone to enjoy yourself and you are aloud campfires (off the ground). We will be definitely going back when the weather warms up. Can't wait 


Date of Visit: August 2014 Unit:  Trailer Tent
Reviewer: JMBJWB 4 reviews from this member

 We stayed on the site for 4 nights. It has easy access to buses to Oxford, but unfortunately there is nothing walkable from the site. The site information claims eating and drinking places a mile away. This is not the case. The facilities were not up to the standards you expect on a Camping and Caravanning site. There were 2 ladies toilets, one without a toilet seat and toilet roll some days. The shower floor was very dirty and no available mop and bucket to clean it. The washing facilities are outside with no shelter or light and as it rained whilst we were there, washing up was very difficult. The site appeared run down with a dreadful stagnant water smell near to entrance.

We will not be returning.

Reviewer: SammyA 4 reviews from this member

 We spent two nights here and there were definite good bits and not so good bits.

The owner was welcoming, toilets/showers were clean and there was plenty of hot water (£1 for a shower seemed a bit steep though!).

It was the first weekend of the summer holidays when we stayed and there was quite a few people so I'm not sure why everyone was crammed into one field when there was another that remained empty, it would have been much more enjoyable if we had been able to have our own space a little more (not least because then the children camped next to us might not have played football right next to our tent when our youngest was sleeping)!

There was also a whiff sewerage that drifted across the site every so often (and seemed to get stronger round the bins/path to the toilets) we couldn't work out if the septic tank needed emptying or it was the elsan point but either way it was quite unpleasant.

Overall, not awful but not sure if we would come bac again.

Reviewer: Inneseaton 9 reviews from this member

 I have to say mixed feelings on this site. Location is great, close to Oxford, and some nice walks and days out in the area. Facilities are basic, although clearly are normally kept clean.

My gripes then - firstly, not the fault of the site owners, but there were a handful of really badly behaved kids on site. Running all over the place screaming and shouting at people and making a complete mess of the toilets, to the point that we couldn't use them (toilet rolls thrown in the toilets or rolled out all over the floor etc).

Secondly - the site claims to be dog friendly, which I would agree with, except for the fact that the owners dog clearly doesn't like other dogs! I understand that not all do, but one to be aware of as it is allowed to roam free around the entrance to the site.

Minor other points - the bins were overflowing and not emptied whilst we were there, the toilet roll, whilst cleaned up, was not replaced, and the washing up area was not very clean (thanks to inconsiderate campers again).

I get the impression we were just unlucky here, so will probably return (as the site is lovely) - our experience was ruined by our neighbours sadly.

We loved the donkeys!

Reviewer: Robbo19 6 reviews from this member

 This is the second time we have staged here. Nice site, good facilities. Helpful owner and very pleasant. The first time we stayed we were concerned that it was a family site (grumpy old man), but it was great to see all the children mixing together. And they were all so tired that we woke up in the morning before they did. Some traffic noise but nothing really noticeable. Highly recommended.
