 My wife and I stayed at this site during April 15, and we found it clean tidy, large pitches, lovely toilet block, hot showers and very very helpful owners and staff. Unfortunately we had an accident in our car and had to leave early. The owners and staff could not have been more helpful during this awkward time. We will definitely go back later in the year.

Reviewer: Acampingwewillgo 8 reviews from this member

 We really enjoyed our stay at Cotswold View although we chose the wrong Easter week weather-wise! The pitches are nice and big and we were told we could position our caravan whichever way we wanted as long as the pitch marker was in the middle. We paid £5 for the barrier number card and £5 for the Wi-Fi card which is refunded when returning them.

The shop stocked everyday essentials and had warm croissants and bread in the morning, best to pre-order the night before.

The pitches are mainly level but some vans needed levelling blocks. We didn't use the facilities but did use the laundry room which had two large washing machines, one large tumble dryer and a sink for hand washing. The play areas for the kids are great with the addition of a new zip-wire which was very popular. There is also a couple of football nets which are situated away from the pitches so no worry of getting unwanted balls flying your way! It is a very friendly site and the staff were lovely and worked very hard at keeping everything tidy. The woodland walk is ideal for dogs and little kids and there are also some outside exercise machines along the walk which gave us a giggle and an excuse for some funny photos! The local areas are lovely and we visited Chipping Norton, Charlbury and of course Hubby wanted to go to the Hook Norton Brewery! I would best describe this site as a real family site because of the great playground facilities and the 'safe' feeling it has for the kids. We will certainly be returning soon.

Reviewer: Cryten 2 reviews from this member

 This is a wonderful site, the website does not do it justice. We (2 adults & 2 children, 5 & 2) stayed in a tent, whilst the farther in law, mother in law and brother in law stayed in a trailer tent, we all stayed for a 4 nights. When you arrive you have to paid £10 deposit for the entry and Wi-Fi, and they only accept cash for this, which could catch people out.

When we pitched up and tried to connect the hook up there was no electric. So I rang reception (didn't want to walk there as it was raining) and they had someone there in less than 5 minutes, and the problem was solved.

The whole site is kept very well, it is kept clean and tidy, the bins were emptied regular. The toilet/shower facilities were clean, but by wife did say there was a smell in the ladies, but I was later told that they had a blockage, but the other toilet block was fine. The playgrounds were great and the kids loved playing on them. The walks around the farm and woodlands were also lovely. The shop on site is small but does stock a good range of essentials, and the freshly cooked bread is superb, just remember to order it the day before. The staff were friendly and helpful, and asked several times about my son (has he was sick on the Saturday morning).

They have a chip van every Saturday evening, but get there early has we had to wait for nearly an hour before being served. I have been told that they are planning to build a restaurant, which would be a great addition to the site, hopefully it will have a bar to.

The one thing that was really good was that we enquired about staying for longer on the day we were leaving (as the weather was nice). They told us has long has the pitch is not booked, you can stay for day at no extra charge. We will definitely be returning to this site, probably later this year, has we all enjoyed our stay there.

 What a little gem! Myself, hubby and 5 year old twin daughters have just returned and have already booked up again for May school holidays.

Good bits:

- Fantastic play areas for children to play

- Great pitch sizes and some with hedge screens around

- Lots of toilets and showers which were spotlessly clean

- Wonderful views of the Cotswolds

- Lots of woodland and dog walking areas

- Football field with goal posts

- Zip slide (new) which the kids absolutely loved!

- Onsite shop stocking most of the essentials including cold beer!

- Clean, well laid out site

- Pre order your hot fresh bread for the morning

- Animals to keep the kids entertained (sheep, donkey, horses, etc)

Bad bits:

- Absolutely nothing we can think of!

We were about 20 minutes drive to Witney which had good shops, restaurants and cinema. 10 minutes drive to Chipping Norton which was pretty.

We are really looking forward to coming back in May :)

 We booked 3 nights on a fully serviced pitch at Cotswold View as we were visiting Blenheim Horse Trials. Excellent access to site. Very friendly welcome and there was a really good tourist information office. Wifi was included in the price and you need to deposit £10 for Wifi card and barrier pass which is returned when you depart.

We had a fully serviced pitch and were right next to the dog walk which was excellent (this is the best one we have come across and we were able to let our dog off lead for a good run). Our pitch had plenty of space and it was very easy to get set up.

There was a small shop on site for the necessities. Toilet and shower facilities very clean, but I think they could get a bit busy during high season. The site itself is extremely well cared for and most attractively laid out.

I also think that if you are camping, be prepared for the noise level as there are no wardens to enforce the quiet time.

We will definitely be going back.

Reviewer: Lubeelou 8 reviews from this member

 Just returned from 5 nights at this site and very impressed. The site is clean and tidy. Nicely located for visiting the cotswolds most towns within 10 miles. The only gripe I have is the showers are push activated and they don't stay on longer enough so you have to rest your shoulder on the button whilst showering. The cubicles are small but there are 2 bigger family / disabled cubicles with shower toilet and sink that are better to use. I would definitely go again.

 I'll keep this brief.

Positives for this site.

1. Location is perfect for everything Cotswold

2. The campsite's look is stunning, wonderful tree's and great walks a plenty

3. Charlbury (nearest village) perfect for pubs, eating and the useful Train station for getting around.

4. Price, very good value.

5. Exercise machines in the wooded walks, great fun well worth searching for.

Sorry but negatives.

1. Shower blocks are so dated, and for us not that clean!

2. One member of staff (male) totally ignored me when I was trying to help him!

3. On leaving we had two new groups of campers queuing for our pitch, even though we still had over an hour before we we're due to leave! A shame as the majority of the pitches were empty on the site. We mentioned this to the owner who in fairness did say sorry, but still this spoiled the end of our stay!

To sum up more good than bad, but the bad did sour our stay slightly.

Would we go again? Maybe?

But try it because we may just have been unlucky!

Reviewer: Cczmark 5 reviews from this member

 We booked Fri & Sat on a very warm weekend in early Sept.

Site is very spacious with its own wood and lovely dog walking. General impression is very pleasant. The shower block is definitely due for a refurb, cleanliness was ok though and didn't put us off. Easy enough to get to.

However the main problem for us was the very large amount of kids running around & shouting until at least midnight, so if there is a curfew it is not being enforced. Seems to be a common theme reading other reviews. We decided not to stay the following night due to the noise, even though we had prepaid.

Nearby pub The Crown Inn, Church Enstone - we had a superb meal - most restaurants would struggle to match the quality and service.

In summary; great for families or groups but if you want relaxation then maybe it's not for you. Would possibly go back but only off-season or midweek.

Reviewer: Timothy H 1 review from this member

 Good central location, Tew worth a visit and have a meal in the pub

Toilets and showers adequate

Site nice and flat

Good size pitches

Small shop

Unfortunately no one prepared to deal with loud, foul mouthed drunks partying until gone 2am for two nights in a row over a weekend when the site had a large amount of families camping. And yet this is sold as a family site, it's a big shame.

Reviewer: Mrsuperbock 1 review from this member

 We booked two pitches at Cotswold View for a long weekend.

A great location not far from the local village and lots of attractions with 10-20 minutes drive. We visited Burford, Chipping Norton and Blenheim Palace.

We were on a field with about a dozen other tents although we had a fair amount of space to ourselves. We were about 20 seconds walk from 2 separate toilet/shower blocks which were both clean with good facilities.

Plenty of good facilities on the site with a well stocked shop. We had kids with us and there were lots of things for them to do including a woodland walk around the farm and animals to see.

Positives were: good clean facilities, friendly staff, great site with lots of things to do, good location

Negatives: No active wardens around, so when neighbouring tents stayed up till 1:30am chatting noisily outside their tents there wasn't anyone enforcing the 'quiet time' rules

Reviewer: Bowden769 1 review from this member

 Stayed here a on 16th May 9 (had a heat wave!) Site has a nice long driveway up to the site. We recently brought a new tent so this was our first pitch with it, took us a while but we did it! Any way we checked in and was told our pitch number. Drove down to the pitch which was very big in the last field. There was a little wood with a lovely walk around the outside of the site. We had our puppy with so he enjoyed that. Toilet & shower block was very clean and tidy, also had a washing machining and tumble drier area also very clean.

There is a little shop on site which did lovely hot croissants to order as well as newspapers ect.

Very well priced too. We would definitely stay there again.

Reviewer: Fee Fi Fo 8 reviews from this member

 This is a pleasant site with a family feel. When we asked to change pitch from the one allocated they were really obliging. Some pitches are better than others though and some are on quite a slope. The facilities were clean but there were problems with the showers. They were really fierce and not very warm, later in the week they seemed to have been mended but still very powerful. I would not have wanted to shower young children in there. The cubicles are very small, but there are separate wash hand basin areas for changing.

The site is well-placed for visiting Bourton on the Water, Stow on the Wold, Oxford etc. Charlbury is on the main line to Paddington and 1 hour 20 mins train ride is achievable for a trip to London.

There are 2 good sized parks and a woodland trail as well as some farm animals and some football goals. The site wifi for which you pay a refundable deposit worked ok in our part of the site although the password only allowed one user to browse at a time.

Reviewer: Sue Dutt 1 review from this member

 I selected this site for our first camp based on the good reviews that others had written and I'm glad I did.

It's a well maintained site, suitable for families. The shop sells lovely fresh bread and a range of basic provisions (eggs, bacon, milk, tinned foods etc)

The pitches are a good size with electric hook-up. Most importantly clean toilets & showers with plenty of hot water! Overall there is a feeling of space - I was there for bank holiday weekend and there was no feeling of being overcrowded.

There is a small games room with a few table games - 40p a game seems like a good deal to me.

For us the town of Charlbury was a little too far. There is a shortcut through the woods which is a 15-20 minute walk. We wanted to get a taxi so that we could have a meal there but they are local guys who weren't working the bank holiday, so had no choice but to walk. There are 4 pubs in Charlbury - we ate in the Bull which was very reasonably priced and serves the best New Zealand Sauvignon blank I've ever tasted.

The location is great for exploring the area.

I wouldn't visit the site again because of the walk to town but otherwise I think it's a great site.

Reviewer: Oldbuckenham 4 reviews from this member

 Excellent site for exploring West Oxfordshire and the Cotswolds. Facilities and site well maintained and kept clean, free wifi, mixture of pitches. Toilet blocks need some upgrading but were clean and working. Staff all very pleasant. Many return visitors which is a good sign. Excellent dog walk and Farm Trail. Good pub in Church Enstone. Not all pitches level. Shop stocks the basics but also offers ordering of newspapers and freshly baked bread and croissants.
