We regularly visit the Morton in Marsh Caravan and Motorhome Club site and this most recent visit was over the August bank holiday in 2019. The site is very much the same as usual with very high standard toilet blocks; however, we felt that this year some of the pitches were looking very tatty.
A number of the gravel hard standings were covered in weeds and a lot of the gravel had disappeared, giving the site a scruffy feel. There are a lot of trees on site which have grown considerably over the last 10 years or so since we’ve been using the site and many of these trees are now overhanging the pitches and blocking out the light and sun.
In my previous review for this site a number of years ago I mentioned the problems with road noise and unfortunately, this has only got worse. There is a very busy main road just outside the site entrance and the number of cars and lorries and HGVs hurtling down the road causes a great deal of road noise.
Another disappointing development with this site is the addition of about 10 glamping pods in the old dog walk area. These glamping pods look very nice, however, the noise that the people using them were making when we were there was extreme.
We tend to find that regular caravan and motorhome users are very respectful of each other and we have never had any problems with excessive noise on any CMC site before; however, it appeared that a number of extended families/groups had booked several of the glamping pods and were playing loud music and partying late into the night which I felt was completely unacceptable.
The noise may not have been so noticeable from some parts of the site but we had deliberately chosen a pitch at the back of the site to try to avoid the worst of the road noise, but in doing so we had a new kind of noise to contend with!
The location of the site however is extremely convenient, just a short walk from the centre of the town where there are plenty of pubs and restaurants and cafés so it’s a very nice location to spend a few days.
Been here before, lovely site and location to Moreton which is just a short walk away along a paved pathway. I have never made a negative review on a camp site but I make this the exception.
Sadly the customer service is lacking somewhat by the offhand and brusque manner of the wardens. Very regimented rules and woe betide anyone that oversteps them. They should realise that their attitude and the the way they approach people doesn't help the situation.
I would return here for its location and it is easy to reach other Cotswolds villages / towns by bus. It is a lovely site and would be all the more appealing if you received a friendly smile from arrival to departure. via mobile
Opal 0313, I think we’ve just met your friendly warden.
As has been said, you have to park across the front of the van on this site, something i’m not fond of. That’s all very well, but some of the pitches aren’t long enough to do it.
I’d been on site for 2 days and had to park on the grass down the side, that is usual on other sites, along with 2 other units in our row, if we hadn’t, the road, which is very narrow anyway, would have been blocked. Along comes Mr Happy and starts telling me in a very forceful manner that I was told to go back to the hedge when I booked in. I wasn’t!Three times I had to tell him this and he still wouldn’t have it.
He then said I should go and park my car in the main car park! I asked him if he was going to speak to the others parked on the grass? He walked off saying I’ll leave you to move your car. 2 days later the other cars were still there.
I’m not an habitual rule breaker, but when I’ve paid for a pitch with an awning that's what I expect to get.
And at £175 for 3 adults its getting very expensive.
I think they’ve put too many pitches in, had they used the bigger area hardstandings found on other sites it would be a better site. via mobile
Arrived to a unfriendly welcome. Alright it was the first bank holiday weekend of the year and a lot of people were arriving but it would have been nice just to have a friendly smile.
The wardens who booked us in was miserable not a smile at all and gave us a list of dos and don'ts. One being make sure the car was parked across the front of the caravan & awning NOT on the grass at the side of the caravan.
A man booked me in while a lady booked in my friend. We felt these were a couple who you could not share a joke with.
We found a pitch that was nicely in the sun as there are a lot of trees on this site so a lot of shaded pitches. The pitches are not wide and you have to put your caravan in the hedge bottom at the back in order to put your car across the front.
As with all CMC sites you find a pitch then you go back to reception to let them know the pitch no you are on and in some cases receive a barrier card. Thankfully it was another lady who was in reception and she was totally the opposite. Cheerful and lovely and friendly and was someone you could laugh with.
The site is quite a large one and within 10 mins walk to Moreton-in-Marsh which has pubs shops and a couple of supermarkets. Plenty to do in the area as it was a hot weekend we didn't go to far just a couple of walks.
Our party had another encounter with the unfriendly warden when we went to the toilet block while it was been cleaned. We asked if there anywhere else to go and he rudely shook the closed sign that was on a chain across the doorway.
Finally as we left for home after a lovely weekend our favourite warden just walked passed our outfits as we were leaving through the barrier, no goodbye thanks for coming have a safe journey, nothing said at all which made us smile.
We liked this site and would return after all once your booked in you don't see much of the wardens. Just thought this poor man is in a job he hates and was having a bad weekend. via mobile
This is really just an update to a previous review.
This site now has 10 Pods available for hire, newly opened this year. One of the motorhome service points is currently being converted to and open grill.
Excellent CC site just a short walk from the town.
It's a very popular site, so book early! Easy, friendly check in and a decent choice of pitches Great size pitches in various sections. All spotless as with all CC sites.
Mobile chip van that visits is called the StarChipEnterprise and really the best we’ve ever tasted thanks Wayne and Alex.
Booking our next visit for when there there again, details in reception
Great place short walk in to town lovely Cotswold tea rooms cafes restaurants and beautiful old bars and inns Black Bear being my favourite for local ales and footy on telly can’t wait for the next visit in Spring.
What a lovely well run site and central to everything you want to do and all within a 20 mile region, castles, quaint villages, gardens, Zoo and a wildlife park all within 25 mins drive.
My only niggle was when we arrived we were told to find a pitch and let them know what number it was, as it was a Sunday we had a good choice to pick from and was even told if you like the sun these are the best pitches so of course we went for the sunny pitches, set up and put the awning up and chilled,
On Monday morning we were woken at 8. 15am with the workers who was working behind us, building what looked like log cabins, machines, diggers, grinders, saws going you name it we had it but of course didn't know this as there was 6 foot hedge between us, if you want a site day don't go where they are building works are but as we were out about all day and wasn't getting back till 5pm the builders had finished, would of been nice if someone from the site had told us this,
But overall the site is perfect and will definitely return as it is so close to everything you need on a holiday.
Moreton is lovely and a 10min walk gets you to the train station and we went to Oxford for the day which was £10 return brilliant well worth a visit. Budgens, Tesco and a co-op and a Market every Tuesday. Dog Friendly it has everything.
Our third visit to this site, at different times of year, previously Easter and November, it was lovely to see the site at the height of summer.
Access to the site is very easy, being at the side of the A44, and a few minutes from the town centre. Moreton in Marsh is a lovely little town with a good outdoor market on Tuesdays and an abundance of pubs and eateries, a Tesco express, a small co-op, Budgens and Aldi, as well as independent shops
It is a relatively large site, laid out in two distinct areas, one side is very open, while the other is sheltered by mature trees, we chose the latter for this visit and were glad we had, as the weather was hot and sunny all week and the van kept fairly cool under the shade. Pitches are mainly hardstanding, with a few grass pitching areas in and among, all have EHU and TV connection.
Facilities are the usual CMC standard, very clean throughout our stay, and the blocks are modern and well lit with plenty of room in the shower cubicles. Ample dishwashing facilities. There is a separate disabled block with easy access.
As others have said, a fish and chip van and pizza van visit the site on different nights, the pizza we had was lovely if a little expensive, we didn't try the fish and chips but they smelled delicious.
There is lots to do in the surrounding area, several NT properties to explore, Batsford Arboretum, Cotswold Wildlife Park, Broadway Tower, and many, many delightful villages and towns, all worth a visit if you have the time.
This was our third visit to this site and it never disappoints. We stayed for 6 nights and used it as a base for trips out by train and bus.
The site is quite busy but pitches are well spaced out and offer a good choice of sunny or shady. The facilities are well maintained and kept well up to the standard that we've come to expect from CAMC. The site is visited by a fish and chip van and a mobile pizza oven. I can recommend the pizzas
The site is 10 minutes walk from the town centre and a further 10 minutes to the train station. That offers hourly services to Oxford in one direction and Worcester and beyond the other way. We had days out in Oxford, Worcester and Evesham. There are also bus services to Broadway, Stratford, Cheltenham and Bourton in the Water. We visited Bourton, which was delightful
When in Moreton we make a point of having a meal at Marshmallow, which offers excellent food although labelling itself as a 'tea room'. We also had a good meal at the Bell
Other 'not to be missed' features of the town are the Victoria Coffee House and the Tuesday market
Lovely CMC site on the outskirts of Moreton-in-Marsh town.
Friendly wardens and nice easy check in. The site is always busy but we had a decent choice of pitches as it is spread out fairly well.
Good clean facilities on site (2 blocks) and plenty of bins, water, waste, etc.
Easy walk (5 minutes) into town - which seems to have got a lot busier (traffic-wise) since we last visited a few years ago.
Lots of pubs/restaurants/cafes/tearooms to choose from and quirky shops with some high street shops. Tesco Metro, small Co-Op and larger Budgens for any supplies required.
The weekly Tuesday market is great. Regular buses to/from Stratford-upon-Avon & Bourton-on-the-Water from outside the site and/or town. We went to Bourton and paid £4 return each - not bad for the distance.
We also walked from the site to Batsford (1. 5 miles each way across fields) where there's an arboretum with garden centre and cafe and the Cotswold Falconry Centre next door. 10% discount for CMC cardholders for the arboretum and the falconry centre offer a 2 to 1. We would highly recommend the falconry centre.
Best pub in Moreton is the Black Bear, great food and good ale & cider (not overpriced like the majority of them!).
Lovely Indian restaurant too - The Spice Room, just off the main high street.
Looking forward to returning to Moreton in the next few years.
Have not been back here for nearly seven years, don`t know why because it is a vey nice C&MC site well laid out with two very clean toilet blocks, friendly wardens and it is only a 10 minute walk to the town.
Plenty of drinking and eating places in the town. Can highly recommend Hassan Balti India restaurant in the High Street. The site is visited by a fish and chip van and a mobile Pizza Oven on different evenings and we can recommend both.
There is a market on Tuesdays in the Market Square selling a wide variety of goods.
Site was quite muddy but we have had an abnormal amount of rain.
There are many places of interest within a short drive Burford, Bourton-on-the-Water, Batsford arboretum to name just a few.
There are several supermarkets within easy reach of the site, some on foot or a short drive.
All in all this is a very nice site in a lovely location and well worth visiting all year round.
What a pleasant site this is to stay on, extremely clean and well kept, with very accommodating wardens. This is our 3rd visit, and have to say one of our favourite sites.
Only downside of club sites is they are getting expensive, especially in school holiday times, and our stay was the week following Easter. Outside of school holidays, it is good value for money.
We visited this site in late January 2018. Our arrival was efficient and fast but could have been friendlier. I felt as though there were more important things to be getting on with rather than dealing with the arriving guests.
The pitches are not the biggest but are adequate. They do look tired and need refreshing. The site roadways are in poor condition so when it rains it puddles. I appreciate that we were here in winter but the site still looked shabby.
The facilities on the other hand were excellent. Lovely and clean shower room and toilets, never had to queue.
Ideally situated for the town of Moreton with its array of pubs shops and cafes. There is a Tesco Express and co-op in the high street and a Budgens supermarket at the far end.
TV reception is poor and you will likely need a hook up tv cable.
The information centre in the town is really useful, there are local buses to Cheltenham, Stow, and Stratford. There is a train service to Worcester and Oxford.
It is an easy walk from the site to Batsford Arboretum and Falconry Centre.
Just returned from a 4 night half term stay, to site it just on the outskirts of Moreton In Marsh and is easy to find.
On arrival we were greeted with a friendly welcome and given the info needed. The site was easy to navigate around and we soon found a suitable pitch. The hard standing pitches just narrow enough for a caravan and awning with a little room left to walk around. It would be nice if the hard standing was wider so we don't have to squeeze our car in front of the unit.
Facilities were great, there are plenty of toilets and showers which was looked after to the usual, excellent Caravan Club standard.
Moreton in Marsh is a short walk away, which has lots of shops to keep you stocked up.
Just returned from another few days at this club site which we visit quite often. Lovely friendly greeting from the Wardens who were on duty when we arrived. The site is very handy for a walk into Moreton with a nice variety of shops.
With regards to the site itself it is very much in need of a lot of TLC especially the roads and pitches. Most have very little gravel on them and with dead and rotting leaves everywhere and inches of mud on the corners this once lovely park is now looking very run down. Such a shame as it is very popular especially during the winter months.
