 Firstly the positive. Small friendly relaxing site. Lovely quaint pub with nice reasonably priced food. I chose to stay here in order to meet up with friends. The pitches around the perimeter have electric and a tap whilst those in the middle are less defined and space is at a premium.
Lovely walks across fields to nearby Bidford where there is a good variety of shops, pubs, restaurants etc. Great dog walking but gates are difficult to negotiate with a pushchair, would be impossible with a wheelchair. Bidford has a lovely area called the meadow which has a great play area.
The downside to this site is the showers, toilets and washing up facilities. There are only 2 showers, each containing a toilet, there are no separate toilets, so if you're desperate for the loo you have to wait while someone finishes their shower! As a result the showers get full of grass cuttings with people constantly going in to use the loo. They have clearly been modernised recently and the finish is nice but the design is poor. Also take your own loo roll as there is rarely any there.
The washing up sinks are tiny and modern in design, but are impractical as water collects all around them, and aren't big enough to submerge a plate! unfortunately they have chosen looks over practicality.
Having said that, it's a gorgeous location and I enjoyed my stay.

We stayed here with some friends over the bank holiday weekend. The site is a field at the rear of a small olde pub with a slight slope on it.
Good points - great location, good pub, we ate and drank here and it was fine pub food and a decent atmosphere chatting with other campers and a few of the locals. There is a water tap on each pitch however you do share a tap between each pitch so if you want to connect you van permanently you will need a tap splitter ( ebay £3 if you don't have one ) The location is great, very close to the river, you can cut through at the corner of the field, walk along the river and through a couple of fields ( has sheep in them when we went which the kids liked ) into Bidford. Cross the road and you are in Big Meadow which has a great kids play area, zip wire, basket ball court and they have almost completed the skate park now too. Local cricket club play here too so we say and watched a game.
Points needing attention - The shower facilities were not to our taste and we didn't use them. They need refurbishing and a good clean. Toilets were OK but showers. This didn't worry us as we use the shower in our van most of the time anyway. The grass also needed cutting, it was left too long and as the weather wasn't great it meant you got soaked walking anywhere.
Overall though it was good and we would stay there again. If you're looking for 5* this isn't for you. If you like quirky and don't need to use the showers it's a great place to stay.

This is camping as it was, Pick your own spot set up and your good to go brilliant pub lovely guest beers and good food, nobody bothers you from the management, I was in my MoHo so had own sans' etc, but some people had a moan about the washing and showering not being up to standard, some of our party said the water temp' was very variable but it's in a great location very friendly people although they are leaving soon as the brewery has upped the rent so they are off, hope it will come out of the change of management unscathed, the site is open to the main road via the pub garden hence child friendly only 5-10

First the positives, the site is in a lovely location, near Bideford with lovely walks by the river, also the Cottage of Content was a great quirky little pub with very helpful and friendly staff, however, I feel the site is very neglected, long grass throughout the site, which, when wet, soaked through clothing, toilet area needed cleaning, dish washing facilities had no hot water, and the cassette toilet disposal point had no water nearby with which to sluice out, also dogs were allowed off lead to run about and this caused problems to other dog owners who kept their dogs on the lead, I do feel, with a little loving care and attention to the basics, this could be a brilliant little site to which I would certainly return.

Used this site for a 3 day short break. Liked the idea of it being near a pub - which was tiny, quaint and lovely.
Very basic field for the pitches with basic shower/toilet cubicles (not brilliantly cleaned) and no wash up areas but water on each electric hookup.
It was enough for our needs but we felt the owners could do with giving the area a bit of tlc and a makeover; tidying up the back area - looking at rubbish over flowing from skips isn't pleasant, as well as re-surfacing the carpark.

Just spent a few days over the Easter holidays here so the site was busy. As said in previous reviews its a very laid back site backing on to fields and the river Avon with Bidford only a few minutes walk over the fields. A very dog friendly site even in the pub. Everyone on site was very friendly and helpful. The two toilet and showers were in consent use and did get a bit muddy my only suggestion would be to leave a bucket and mop in each so you can clean the floor, the showers were hot but it would be a bit chilly in there in cooler weather as no heating. The food in the pub was great, traditional pub grub and cooked well at a reasonable cost. They will definitely be seeing us again.

What a find.
Backing on to open countryside and walks by the quiet river Avon this site sits next to the pub.
Really really friendly manager and all the staff, inc the early morning cleaner that gave us advise on places to see.
Good food at sensible prices. Campsite is really a huge field but with loos, showers etc at one corner.
I had a blissful stay and highly recommend you try it. Definitely one to remember and return to.

A quirky, friendly and very relaxed little campsite, in a small field at the back of a 17th century pub. What makes this place special are the owners and staff. Very laid back people, and incredibly helpful. I don't think the pub was open at 8. 30am on a Sunday but the Landlord cheerfully made us coffee anyway when our gas canister died. It was rather fab to spend an evening in the lively pub on Saturday night and totter to tent a 1 min walk.
Bidford is a pleasant ten minute walk along the river and has some good places to eat and drink by the water as well as a small shop for buying supplies.
Would we go again? Absolutely

What a brilliant little campsite! For the last five years a group of about a dozen friends have gone on a camping trip around the Midlands area. This year we visited Stratford and I found the Cottage Of Content for us all to stay at. It's ideal for Stratford as Bidford village is 10 minutes walk away and there's a bus every half hour into Stratford.
The Cottage itself is a cracking little pub, the landlord and his staff were all super friendly when we arrived and very helpful in providing info about the area. We all had a meal on the Friday evening and on the Sunday lunch before departing for home and the food was excellent. They had two real ales on at the bar too. Look out for the low beams though - gives the place a traditional look but they don't half hurt when you bang your head on them, as I found out!
The site itself is behind the pub with hook-ups and water taps all round the outside edge. It got pretty busy the weekend we were there but not overcrowded. The facilities are a little basic and share the main toilets as the pub toilets too, but they were good enough really.
We all loved Stratford and Bidford as places to visit and one weekend just wasn't long enough! I'd definitely like to visit the area again sometime and would recommend the Cottage for their beer and food as well as their campsite.

Fab Site ! This was our first outing as Motorhome virgins and found this to be exactly what we needed to 'Test' everything. Shower and toilet block small but clean and oodles of hot water. Hook up and water on each pitch and the Pub was spot on with service and value for money, offering meal deals every night. The surrounding villages and area were stunning and fantastic for walking and the Dog loved the launch pads sometimes known as Angling posts !
