 We’ve spend a weekend here with family, both on pitches with electric hookups, one Motorhome, one tent. The Consumer unit for the electric hookup was faulty and ended up tripping out electric a number of times.
The site lacked general social distancing and sanitizers, which we’ve seen to be rigorously exercised on other campsites this summer. On our last day there was no water so most of us didn’t get a shower, the unlucky one was stuck in the dirty shower full of creepy crawlers waiting for a drop of water to wash off the shampoo.
Whilst the staff was in process of fixing the issue, one of them approached my parter when he was washing his hands. Reached over and turned off the tap and told him to use the plug and wash his hands in the basin due to the shortage of water. We were appalled by lack of consideration for social distancing.
We’ve booked on the phone, so we’ve never received an email confirmation. At the arrival we weren’t told about the check out time either. This information isn’t available on the website either. We were only told at 11:35 am that checkout time was at 11 so we now need to pay £5 for the late checkout. Surely this I formation could be made available.
Overall, we were disappointed with this site, staff and facilities.

This site has obviously changed its name from Merryweather Farm recently, and a lot has been spent on refurbishment, with immaculate gravel drives and hardstandings, stone walls and flowerbeds.
There are very spacious well maintained grass areas. We stayed here with our daughter and family in their tent, for which a very large field is provided without electrics.
This was the only site I could find available to accommodate all of us in this area, but I noticed that there was no mention on their website of any Covid-19 precautions. I had to ask about this when booking by phone, and was given a brief answer, and my doubts were confirmed when we arrived. Nothing was mentioned on reception apart from the usual hand sanitiser on the desk.
There were measures in operation at the block, a maximum of four in plus a one in one out practice, plus tapes on the ground for 2 metre queuing, but overall we got the impression that health and safety were not a high priority.
In this I agree with the previous reviewer, and also with her other point about departure regulations. We were not given any information about the site on arrival, and only found out about this very harsh rule of charging per hour for late departure when informed by a patrolling member of staff as we were in the process of packing up.

We planned to stay here to explore somewhere new. We booked 2 adjacent pitches as we are a family bubble and were assured at the time of booking we would be next to each other. Unfortunately the site doesn’t give any confirmation of bookings and this led to upon arrival us being not only separated but surrounded by seasonal pitches which were occupied and no social distancing was in place.
There was also no quiet down time and the people on the seasonal pitches enjoyed themselves into the early morning which is also not great when you want to sleep.
There were no measures in place Regarding covid apart from a sign requiring 4 at a time in the toilets and a taped up sink given there are only 3 toilets in the block the sign was quite pointless There is no hand sanitiser at all and whilst there we never witnessed the toilets being clean The bin area was over flowing although the site wasn’t full so unsure if this is a regular problem.
There is absolutely nothing on the site for children to do and would definitely be more suited to a adult only site. The rally field also contains part of the caravan storage facility So there are lots of caravans parked up.
The electric supply is not sufficient and constantly trips It is definitely not 10/16 amp like said at our booking enquiry Apparently it is only 6amp on part of the site again something that was not mentioned at the time of booking and you only find out once you get there.
There is also a continuously unpleasant smell which although can’t be helped by the site it doesn’t make for a comfortable stay Sadly the park is all about the money and offers very little for what is not a cheap site. We stayed for 3 nights and lost over a week the only reason we stayed the 3 nights was due to trying to find another site.
The only positive I can really think of is the pitches are nice and flat

We had a wonderful few days after isolating
Very friendly staff, very good on social distancing
I felt very relaxed the park and facilities were very clean
As I am very nervous due to current times but I felt very relaxed from entering the park to leaving

We stayed at this site as a stop over as we were going onto another site
The facilities were good but needed a clean
There was no social distancing what’s so ever
The electric kept tripping out when we arrived
After being let in we were met by a warden who looked like he had been drinking, he was rude and obnoxious
The water tap where we filled up our water barrel seemed to take ages to fill
To be honest I’m glad we only stayed 2 nights
We will not be returning or recommending this site

What a fantastic site with great hosts and good facilities.
We were so impressed we have booked again.
The site is very well laid out and is only just off a main road but seems like you are in the middle of nowhere

Friendly helpful team.
Very clean and tidy and small site and facilities.
Great quiet location but near to main routes.
Electric hook up included in reasonable price.

Booked in for May Bank Holiday. We booked in advance and as usual and as a courtesy to the site we notified them we have a continental van (door on the wrong side). As did our friends who were staying too.
Upon arrival at the site the barrier was down. We pulled up and went into reception. We paid deposit for our security card to open the barrier. Upon doing so the site staff (maybe owner) came out and spotted our continental van.
They then said we needed to be moved and we were not going onto the pitch originally booked.
They then said our van looks a bit like a 'hobby' (it's not a hobby) and they don't allow hobby vans.
And they don't allow twin axle vans either. Especially hobby. On advice from 'the council'
Well our single axle van isn't a hobby. And we have never had an issue before. But we didn't feel very welcome.
We were taken to the far end of the site and we're instructed how to pitch our van. Site staff were insistent we followed the 6m rule gap from other units. Which we did. (as we always do)
Just felt we were not welcome or trusted to pitch correctly.
The site is flat and level. There is a fast food van on Friday nights selling burgers etc
Being bank holiday weekend the site was busy. 3 showers in the gents was not enough for the numbers of campers on site
The facilities otherwise are adequate. The ehu is fine there are multiple fresh water points etc. There are a fair few seasonal pitches and a park home on site (funny many of the seasonal pitches were twin axle vans)
During the weekend many units arrived. Funnily enough the 6m rule went out of the window and it seemed to get quite 'cramped'
The site is ideally placed to visit the wolds. Chipping Norton and the hook Norton brewery.
There are several other good sites in the area with a warmer welcome and better facilities. The site is fine. But not as good as others

Love clean friendly site
Visited in Feb 1/2 term & we were very lucky with the weather
Pitches are a good size & it is quite a small site so it should be ok in the height of the season.
Walked into Chipping Norton - no footpaths so make sure you take a torch
Only gripe was that the lights turned off while I was in the shower, as they are on a motion sensor which is not located in the main part, on the plus side the shower were hot & clean.
We were encouraged to feed the chickens any food scraps & eggs were on sale in the reception
Nearest shop was Aldi walk-able distance
Recommend the brewery tour at Hook Norton & we had a lovely lunch there.
