Date of Visit: September 2012 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: ThomoSki 18 reviews from this member

 The site was picked by friends for a meet up. We stayed for two nights (Sept 2012) over a weekend and thought it was a great site. Super location, well spaced pitches and appeared very well run.

Facilities were clean, only complaint (really nit picking) is that the water pressure was pretty poor for showers.

The walk into Adderbury was fine (once we'd figured out how to avoid walking along the road) and there was a good choice of well priced pubs.

Great spot for a weekend away.

 This is a really nice site, and although it can accommodate over 100 units it doesn't seem overcrowded (or at least it didn't when I visited)as it is split into different areas and privacy hedges are also in place. There are two toilet/shower blocks which is very handy as if one is being cleaned the other will still be available.

If you are a dog owner I've no doubt you've experienced sites with no dog walk, or ones the size of a postage stamp. Well this blows all others that I've visited out of the water. The site is on a 84 acre farm and the dog walk appears to use the whole of their boundaries, furthermore it is easily accessed from all parts of the site and really dog owners have no excuse not to be responsible as bins and bags are plentiful. (Unfortunately you just cannot account for some people though. )

The village of Adderbury is a 10 to 15 minute stroll from the site. This has four pubs, all of which were dog friendly.

I think the site is more geared to those wanting a quiet getaway rather than for those with children as I don't recall seeing a play area but this suited me just fine.

I would and will definitely return here. I've given the site 10/10 which I would have reduced to 9. 5 if possible only due to the slight hum of the M40 (which to be fair is not intrusive and would appear to depend on the wind direction).

I'm trying to plan when I can next return already.

Reviewer: Linda Morrison 13 reviews from this member

 Lovely site. We booked for four nights but extended by another two. Large site which feels smaller due to layout of smaller areas.

Very quiet even when busy over the weekend. Could do with more showers/toilets although we didn't encounter any problems.

Very clean and staff were friendly and helpful. Great site for visiting Cotswolds, Oxford, Stratford-upon-Avon and more.

Don't let previous reports of traffic noise put you off visiting this site - it is not intrusive and barely noticeable even in a tent. 


Date of Visit: August 2012 Unit:  Motorhome
Reviewer: Samwillis 25 reviews from this member

 A beautiful site with lots of different areas to camp. Plenty of room on pitches and taps, toilets, showers, chemical disposal very close by.

We took our jack russell who loves to walk and he loved it. There are miles of dog walks on the site alone, with one massive field where they can run free and plenty of walks around the fields with mown pathways with plenty of dog bins and free dog bags to clear up after yourself.

The village of Addersbury is just a mile walk away, and has 4 great pubs all with gardens/outside seating and reasonably priced food. The Bell is a really old traditional pub with Aunt Sally in the garden and the Red Lion does good deals on meals mid-week and has take away Fish and Chips.

The staff in the campsite reception are really helpful and knowledgeable about the local area and provided me with free walking maps for the village and surrounding countryside.

We only stayed 3 nights as we were in the area for the Cropredy Folk Festival (About 8 miles away - 2nd week in August) but next year we are definitely coming back and staying for a full week prior to the festival for a relaxing stay prior to the festivities.

One point to note there is no shop in the village so come prepared or the nearest shop is 3 miles away. Ok if you have a car but too far to walk although basic are sold in the campsite shop.

 Peaceful site, very friendly reception who were wonderfully flexible around our late arrival.

Surprisingly large as a site and excellent for dog owners as there are walks all round the five camping fields, strolls down by the river etc. Although a large site it had a real feeling of space, nothing felt hemmed in.

Traffic can be heard at night from the M40 but inside the van we couldn't really hear it, in a tent it would be different.

Although there was a rally on and the site was busy, it was quiet as darkness fell so a good night's sleep too.

No play area for kids but lots of space to run, scoot etc. Around and as it's at the end of a long private lane, they can roam relatively safely.

Only downside - toilet and shower block. Facilities appeared to be underwhelming for the number of campers present - three fields of tents and vans appeared to be catered for by three gents toilets, five shower cubicles and some clever timing was required to avoid a queue - ditto washing up facilities for the tent campers. It got quite muddy in the toilet block, more from the sheer number of users than lack of maintenance / cleaning. Piped music was an interesting novelty.

Nearby village picture postcard pretty, Banbury very nearby for supermarkets etc. Several couples near us ate at the Pickled Ploughman and were equally unimpressed but there are other pubs with food further into the village.

Price was £20 a night high season with electric which feels like good value for a site with these types of facilities and compares well to the club site fees. Overall a good experience - scope for improvement - more toilet / shower facilities.

 Lovely little park just outside of Banbury.

Ideally located to explore The Cotswolds.

Have been before and was as clean as always. Warm shower blocks, plenty of hot water!

Washing up area nice and tidy.

The site has a little shop that stocks all the essentials, including morning papers. The children loved going to the shop for ice creams and sweets.

We camped in the large 4 acre field, gently sloping pitches which didn't get boggy when the rain came. Only downside was the heavy rain, but nothing the owners can do about that!

Will be returning again next year.

Nothing for the children to do on site, but they have. Fun just running around! 


Date of Visit: July 2012 Unit:  Trailer Tent
Reviewer: Orchideya0 6 reviews from this member

 Wonderful site – absolutely love it. Would recommend to friends and want to go back as soon as we can.

Wardens were really friendly and helpful. Check In was simple. Site information was the best I have ever been given at a campsite. We were given a site map, history of the site and an information leaflet which was really helpful. The map was very good and we followed some of the walks.

The toilet / shower facilities were clean at all times, and even at the weekend we didn’t have to wait. The grass was kept well and the allocated pitch was a good size.

The information room was really helpful with loads of leaflets and ideas of what to do. The shop was well stocked and the ice creams very welcome! The little red tractor and train by reception were a particular favourite of our toddler. We could just about hear the motorway but not enough in way for it to intrude on our stay.

There are a couple of very minor things which could be slightly improved, but really isn’t that bad:-

The drive up to the site is quite long without many passing places, not a problem really but it could be if two caravans were to meet.

There wasn’t a family shower room facility so I had to juggle my toddler with me in the shower. Again its not a massive problem, but if there is any room for one in future plans for the site it would make a huge difference. If nothing else somewhere to lie a toddler / baby in the shower block would help. Also the actual facilities within the shower blocks will need replacing fairly soon I think. In one sink the silver coating was starting to come off around the plug, its fine but will need doing soon.

We tried the Red Lion in Adderbury, very nice food and a nice gentle walk from the campsite, we also walked around the Adderbury lakes which was very pleasant.

Very nice site, will recommend, will go back – thank you Bo Peep for a great a few days away!

Reviewer: Davewardz 6 reviews from this member

 Booked for the May bank holiday. My close and extended family (26 all together ) in several tents and my Pathfinder.

The staff were very helpful and obliging, they set aside an area that would cater for the odd cancellation, yet still allow for harmony with the other campers.

The site is on high land and slopes very gradually to allow good drainage.

The facilities were very modern and clean. Even had piped music.

Ample space for our large gathering to have a morning fitness workout (not all) and also play a game of rounders without doing damage to others. I guess the weather forecast kept people away but we really enjoyed ourselves.

Suppose the only adverse aspect would be the noise from nearby busy main highway, but if your tired enough you won't be too disturbed.

Little shop on site seemed fine, didn't need a pub (took one with us). Local attractions are plenty. Although the 'Fine Lady on a White Horse' was not to be found.

All in all. A good site. Highly recommended.

 Excellent site went for the easter weekend with the family clean toilets/shower facilities, big pitches & nicely laid out walks around the site only a 20 min walk into adderbury 3 lovely pubs the wardens were very helpful & there is an excellent information area where you can find various leaflets regarding attractions in the area we will be returning to this site again in the future. Only downside is there isnt any play areas for the kids but they played on there bikes & scooters so were kept busy

 We went to Bo Peeps for the first time this Easter. I am so pleased with the site, the toilets and showers were kept really clean, there is a little shop with all you need in it (including beers yeahhh!) The grounds are lovely and there are a couple of nice walks. The staff are really friendly and relaxed. There is a Sainsburys a couple of miles away which is great.

There's a long road into the site and the whole site is really well kept and maintained. Would definitely go back again as its nice, clean and friendly :-))

Reviewer: Bigian279 4 reviews from this member

 Had a great 8 night Easter break here, although the weather was 'patchy', we needed our heaters going all the time we were in the tent. We had a very 'lively' Easter Monday night and thought the tent was going to fly away, but it and we all survived intact.

Really pleased with the site, the staff were a delight, most helpful, friendly, relaxed and courteous.

There is nothing for the children to do other than to 'go feral', which ours did spending a lot of their time around and about the walkways and down by the river - they loved it.

Nice big and spacious pitches (we have a very large Tent) which never felt crowded. Super walks around the the perimeter of the farm especially along by the river.

Initially I thought the toilet & shower block we used was a bit small with only 3 showers, 2 urinals, 3 wc's and 5 basins (2 of which were 'privacy' in cubicles) but again it never got crowded. I suspect it would at a more busy time when there would be a lot more campers, as the caravanners tent to use their own faculties. The piped music was a nice touch although only on during the 'peak' weekend.

Most of the pitches sloped to some degree, those in the camping field considerably more than the rest. I'd say that there were a maximum of 25 pitches in the park that could be accurately as flat & level.

It was very well kept, neat and tidy. The motorway noise from the M40 was constant and intrusive.

The on site pay upfront site WiFi was expensive and although we were only about 20m from the 'booster aerial', was very poor in the end our friends asked for their money back.

On the whole we had a great time and will go back, when it's a bit warmer.

 Me and my wife has just come back from bo peep after spending the weekend there. If you want a nice quiet time especially at this time of year this is the site to go to.

If you are looking for somewhere to take the children then it is not unless they like bike riding or walking, as there is nothing there for them which is clearly stated.

Although if people look at the name of the site and probably think otherwise.

The site is very well looked after and the walks, especially if you have a dog, are very good and they also provide pooh bags at various points.

We also went to the plough which is only 20 min walk from the site and had a lovely Sunday dinner, they even let the dog in

Reviewer: Thekilpins 6 reviews from this member

 A superb site located on the edge of the Cotswolds. Very quiet location, with plenty to do within a reasonable drive/walk/cycle ride.

Nice pubs in the village, Fish & Chip van visits the site, close to Banbury for the supermarkets.

Plenty of space on site to pitch, and you can get onto the site really early.

We have been returning to this site for a few years now.

Onsite facilities are superb.

Have also taken guests here and they have returned year on year.

Also great for the younger kids, as loads of space to run around and play, although no play areas.

So far, the best place we've visited that's not near the beaches!

 Fantastic site!

Good access down tarmac drive. Reception very helpful on arrival, small shop with essential supplies in reception.

Spacious pitches, well spread out across site in different areas. Quiet even with high number of tents/caravans.

Wash rooms excellent, 2 blocks, very clean, showers hot. Small queues when busy but to be expected. Wash areas at end of toilet block clean and tidy with microwave available.

No play area but plenty of open spaces. Dog walks all around site, fantastic even without a dog! Information hut on site with local tourist information.

Would definitely stay again.

 Stayed for the August bank holiday with my wife, my son and his friend - both are 11year olds, we had to pay £3 per night each for them but there was no play area or any other things for them to do

The camping field where we stayed was uneven and we had to have the front of our tent on a rise as the ground was awful.

There were 2 shower blocks, 3 showers in the main one and 1 in the second, the place was nearly full and we had to queue every time.

Banbury was a nice little town with plenty off shops and things to do.
