 We have just come back from here after a fantastic mini break (Tues-Fri) with friends who were caravanning. This site is lovely the wardens are very helpful showing you to your very ample pitch I have a 8 birth tent with porch and fitted on nicely.
Very convenient location to the regularly cleaned shower blocks, the site is clean and as soon as people vacate they come round to mow the pitch so the grass is nice and short, however it is stony (at least ours and our friends pitches were) so take some heavy duty pegs we had to borrow some as we weren't prepared for that.
The enclosed play area is a really good size and the indoor and outdoor pool were never full to capacity considering that its included in your pitch price.
In the village there was a lovely pub (on the right just after the chippy) serving rather nice cider 'Pheasant Pluckers' if you like it sweet (I only got a half as I was the nominated driver!) we used the Indian take away (they do deliver to the site but offer 10% discount if you collect) which was really nice as we didn't fancy cooking and the chippy for the kids was a hit.
There is a pharmacy there too which came in useful. Just up the duel carrageway there was a big tesco which saved using the site shop for adult refreshments which were 'local shop' prices understandably. Had no problem with the electric hook up which was fab wouldn't be without it.
We really didn't venture too far as we were there to relax and unwind and just let the kids roam free which felt safe to do so, they were given a wristband to put our mobile number on in case they couldn't find their way back to the pitch which was reassuring. The on site clubhouse had a couple of shows each night for the kids which they enjoyed. I really don't want to say how fab it is as I don't want it being fully booked next time we go.But it's fab!

We booked in with some friends for a special Children's Weekend knowing the site was fully booked and likely to be very busy. We had been pre-allocated our pitches next to one another, but when we arrived our pitch appeared to be the only one on a perfectly flat field that was bumpy with large ridges and divets! I returned to reception who seemed to know exactly what I was talking about and moved me with no bother to a pitch opposite.
The facilities are amazing - extremely clean toilet and shower blocks with plenty of cubicles - there was never any queue. We made full use of the two pools - considering the site was fully booked, neither pool was overcrowded at any time and we secured sun beds for the whole party easily.
The evening entertainment was very good and bingo had high value cash prizes! There are two bowling lanes in the main bar that were very cheap to play. Prices throughout the site were very reasonable. We were hoping to return there again this month but they are fully booked.

This is the most commercialised site we have ever visited we don't like camping with no facilities but usually a shop and a playground is enough however this site did fair quite well.
Very clean, toilet blocks (apart from the hand soap running out in the dispenser snot replaced for 3 days) otherwise great only 3 showers per block there are about 5 blocks all clean and well equipped and even in peak season never queued at all very surprised ! hot water constantly big mirrors baby change disabled etc etc.
Site was spotless loads of bins, wardens buzzing around all day, exceptionally helpful staff, reception staff lovely could not fault them at all.
Facilities spotless, warmest outdoor pool I have ever used if a bit shallow for a decent swim ! there were loads of chairs tables loungers and easy access to bar, snacks etc, indoor pool great and warm but no good for a decent swim more of a fun pool for kids and families lifeguards very nice.
Shop very well stocked if expensive £2.25 for a 2 litre bottle of coke but they do stock papers gifts and a great range of food.Dont forget there's a tesco superstore with cafe and MacDonalds a few miles away just outside Cirencester.
Entertainment went once great for kids, amusement arcade was clean but included a lot of broken machines which was a shame.
Pitches
Clean & tidy we were in A95 and like lots of others ok spaced side to side but you were back to back across the middle and this was the same on at least 4 of the sections so guide lines were touching if you had bigger than a 4 man tent the best pitch I thought without question was B10 its a superpitch but they are worth the extra more space and privacy and placed on the perimeter of the touring area.
Cirencester was lovely all the high street stores plus plenty of restaurants charity shops and quaint bespoke shops we went twice, lovely area great for cycling fishing and watersports, hubby was disappointed with the fishing on site as the lake was chock full of weed but it is free !
The big negative for us was that nearly everyone had gone in groups of 2/3 tents plus therefore there were hundreds of kids on bikes, and although no loud music or bad behaviour most groups were out talking laughing etc until 12 - 1 am I know everyone likes to have a good time but it does seem to be a meeting place for groups for long weekends so if you are in the middle of a few groups it can be noisy with a lot of traffic.
The only other negative is the 10.00am depart time. As countless others have said why not move the arrival time to 2.00pm and put the depart time to midday it was the major problem for all tent owners particularly because a big tent takes 2-3 hours to pack away which means getting up at 7.00am which also disturbs other campers its crazy and the depart time is strictly adhered to so don't even think about not setting hte alarm !
Would I go again - doubtful would I recommend it - yes to groups for a kids fun weekend for couples, rest or relaxation no, if you are a group great but if not its noisy cramped and busy in peak times anyway the godsend is the staff the cleanliness and the good facilities.

Our third visit to this site, excellent as always but a few little gripes this time.
Firstly our neighbours had a party on Saturday afternoon with lots of people around their van, along with music etc. We tried to sit and have a quiet bbq the other side of our van, but balls and frisbees continually knocked into us. We went down to the entertainment and got back about 10.30 to find it still in full swing, it was gone midnight before the noise stopped and then they were up banging about packing up at 7.30!
The only other gripe is on the day were were due to leave the weather was lovely, you have to vacate by 10am and we asked if we could stay until 4pm. We had to pay £18.80 to stay, and the field was deserted!
Apart from the above a great site, but maybe the wardens need to come round a bit more often.

We were camping in touring field A and have to say the facilities were excellent.
Lovely modern toilet blocks, plenty of water taps dotted around and great sized pitches. Brilliant indoor and outdoor pool which were a huge hit with the kids.
We didn't actually leave the site as we only stayed for 4 nights, but very well stocked shop at what I thought to be very reasonable prices for an on-site costcutter!
The fishing lakes were amazing and even my 4 year old son had a go. Fishing in the park is free as long as you have a licence.
There was one negatives and am only pointing this out to give a balanced opinion. When we first arrived we were given pitch 10A, now considering that June is considered out of season and I'd say that only a quarter of the pitches were being used, when we got to pitch 10A we were greeted with a pitch with 2 large drains with man hole covers over and a concrete path running through the middle of the pitch.
We have 2 young children and our tent is a standard tent which meant that the drains and concrete path would be under the tent!
I then trudged back to reception to ask if we could possibly move, (considering the touring field was practically empty), which she did without any bother, in fact when I mentioned the pitch number she seemed to know what the problem was before I even opened my gob!
New pitch was lovely and after exploring the other pitches it is only 10A that seems to have the drains and concrete on them - ok if you have a trailer tent or folding camper but definitely not a touring tent.
So a tip if you are booking just leave a note to avoid pitch 10A!
Would certainly return again with the family as the facilities so excellent. Also a great park and crazy golf which the children enjoyed.

Visited first time with the Grandson aged 7, fabulous site, great facilities, and very safe.
Loads of water parks in the area, and lots to choose from.
The pitches are large and level, and facilities very good in terms of toilets / showers etc.
Great clubhouse c/w indoor / outdoor pool, plus five a side football pitch / tennis courts, and crazy golf, and excellent fishing lake.
Loads of local pubs/restaurants if you want to go off site, and five minutes from local Tesco's, and Cirencester.
Our little one spent tons of time with other kids on the park swings, and riding round the site on their bikes, only returning to the van when hunger and thirst set in.
We experienced no late night noise, and wardens patrol the site every evening.
This is one of the best sites we have been on, and would recommend to all families, especially with youngster's, even the evening entertainment is fab,(for kid's & adults) if you fancy a change, from relaxing outside the caravan, and seeing to the barbecue !

Just back from yet again another very successful trip to Hoburne Cotswolds - and already re-booked for 10 days in August 2010.
You will go far to better this site. We are a family of 2 adults, 2 x 15yr old teenagers and 6yr old twins and this site caters for everyone. Each part of the site suits somebody.
If you want peace and quiet you will get it - even though we were camped on the perimeter flanked by a busy A road. If you want entertainment you will get it during the day and evening - only until 11pm - strict finishing times to keep with the family feel of the park. If you want to explore the beautiful English countryside it is on your doorstep.
Hoburne Cotswolds is a fantastic park. The staff are by far the most friendly and helpful I have ever met - nothing is too much trouble.
There is very little commercial selling thrust upon you like at other parks I could mention - yes they do have children's momentos to take home but they are not constantly reminded at every turn, nor are there ever flyers on tables telling you of latest caravans for sale, although there are some advertised in the foyer should you wish to look.
The grounds are immaculate - we stayed 6 days and left without even a leaf or blade of grass in our caravan. The wash facilities are kept spotless. The catering outlets provide good, fresh and reasonably priced food. The swimming facilities are more than adequate for the size of the park and are open for long periods. The entertainment for children is second to none, for adults - hard to beat! Resident entertainment team plus local visiting cabaret artists. Not forgetting Bingo!
I really should be keeping this all to myself as pitches do get booked up quickly.
I don't think this is the cheapest of holiday parks for pitch prices or hire caravans or lodges, however once here you can holiday vey cheaply indeed as there are very few extras to pay for - the only 1 I can think of is £1.00 per person for Crazy Golf - a steal!
We bought a touring Caravan to see this beautiful country.And have so far returned to Hoburne Cotswolds 3 times! I am a bit reluctant to try elsewhere in case it does not live up to this truly tremendous holiday park.
Keep up the good work guys and see you in 8 weeks!

This was our second time visiting this site in a group of 12 including 6 children ageing from 8 to 15, said we would like to try somewhere else next year only to be moaned at by the kids because all of them really like it here.
The site has loads to do, really clean and friendly. Only down side is that we where unable to book for next year just have to keep trying. There are also a couple of nice pubs close by.

This was our second visit to this site and I have to say we will be back again next year. The area is nice, the site is nice and the people friendly even though they tried to charge for a pup tent we were erecting in our awning to use as an inner!
Facilities are very good, a nice pool indoors and out, plenty of facilities like 'footie' pitches etc. For teens to enjoy if they wish and if your into fishing plenty of lakes abound. Online booking was simple and efficient.
The only downsides for me are the pitches are uneven and badly surfaced tarmac and its pricey in the school holidays even though out of the 'hols' it is more than reasonably priced.

We booked a superior pitch which was nice, quite flat with gravel for awning and separated by hedges.
Shower block clean and well maintained by wardens.
The tap right by our van was just a dribble but tap further down was ok.
The overall site was well maintained and we really enjoyed the park, pool and pedalos.
The food in restaurant was reasonable and entertainment good.
The only problem with main building was the smell in the toilets (prob with plumbing) and the soft play sometimes overrun with older children with no supervision.
We are definitely returning in the summer.

Visited here a couple times, great site we use for long weekend stays, have had great weather everything we visited and even managed to use the outdoor pool.
Find it relaxing sitting on the patio outside the bar with a long cool drink while the children can play on the wooden playground and sand pit.
Showers etc have been very clean and electricity plugs for hairdryers etc.

Stayed for the second week of Easter holidays to meet up with friends. First time we have visited the site but have used their Bashley site in the New Forest a number of times. Usual high standards that we are used to at Bashley were maintained here.
The pitches are very narrow but long enough to fit a 24ft motorhome on as well as a Fiesta. Toilets / Showers always clean. Nice clubhouse area and great that Hoburne have gone down the route of free wifi.
There is quite a busy road that runs around two sides of the touring field and can get quite busy from 5-5.30am. I confess that I am a very light / non existent sleeper though.
There are plenty of cycle tracks, many of which start from the site itself. However they can get flooded/very boggy at times.
Good location for touring the area and water activities. Lovely pubs in nearby villages. Tesco, McDonalds etc about 5-10 minutes drive away.
Small criticism would be that the taps in the touring field are not a screw type and so impossible to fill up a water tank in a motorhome. I also didn't see a drive over grey waste point, however that doesn't mean there isn't one somewhere, and so this could prove tricky as well.
Will definitely be coming back if we can ever manage to book far enough in advance to get a pitch.

Nice easy site to find, well organised great for the kids with loads to do. Clubhouse is fantastic, clean and modern as are the toilet blocks.
Booked a 'superior' pitch which turned out to be what I would call a basic hard standing pitch with a small patch of gravel for the awning. They are not very big and by the time you park your car across the front you can't see a thing, might as well leave the blinds down. Having said that the pitch was fairly level but had to keep adjusting the corner steadies because they didn't fit on our hardstanding and sank in the ground.
Reception staff were very nice stating we should have been informed what the superior pitches contained at the time of booking but we weren't, my colleague did not brought his wastemaster because we were expecting the superior pitches to be serviced. I just think they need to put more information on the web site or down class the pitches to just hard standing.
Didn't like the early departure time it doesn't make sense, no noise between 11.00 pm and 9.00 am yet all departing caravans are up at 7.00 am clanging awning poles and packing up to meet the 10.00 am departure time. No wardens around then telling them to keep the noise down.
That's the gripe over, we had a great time in the clubhouse and ate in there, the food was nice and not too expensive. Tried a bit of fishing but I think they saw us coming and swam off to the no fishing side. Grounds are kept very well. Site wardens were very nice with us.

Just revisited this jem of a site. Even in the autumn we enjoyed our stay as much as mid summer. Still plenty of people on site - all activities running apart from outdoor pool (although weather was so lovely it could have been lol.)
All the staff worked as hard to please as previous. I really can't think of a negative to add. We are embarking on a visit to their Bashley and Torbay sites early next year and hope to find the same welcome.

We have visited this site twice now and it has been great on both occasions.
The pitches are flat with plenty of space. The toilet and showers were always clean with no queues.
Our 7 year old son loves it here, the play area is good and he always found somebody to play with. The pool is great for all ages. We haven't used the outdoor pool as it was closed for the season but it looks lovely.
We ate in the bar and the food was good and reasonably priced.
There is plenty to do in the surrounding area including a lake with a beach.
Can't really fault this site, just a shame more of their sites aren't available to tents.
