Date of Visit: October 2007 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Hmarsh 5 reviews from this member

 Stayed here for three nights on fully serviced pitch. Very peaceful and quiet. The owner was friendly and very helpful. The site is exceptionally well kept and the toilet block is spotless. Traffic noise could be a problem on field next to road but where we were it was peaceful. 


Date of Visit: September 2007 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Twobob 2 reviews from this member

 Stayed here for an overnight on the way up to Scotland.

The only reason we chose this site was because of the good reviews on u.K camp site.

Well, we checked in and were given no indication of anything to do with the site, just told ' That's your pitch over there'

The site was grubby and neglected.

The showers, only two, which were unisex, although not dirty, were in a bit of a sorry state and could have done with a update.

All the units on site were crammed in and it felt as if we were just in a glorified car park.

We were travelling with another couple in a motorhome who live in it full time and they travel all over the country and they said it was the worst site that they had encountered in a long, long time.

The noise from the road nearby was continuous, day and night.

At first we thought that we had checked in at a different one to the site on this review. However, our friends checked on their lap top and we were at the same site.

To top it all, when we paid on departure we were told that there wasn't a receipt available. 


Date of Visit: June 2007 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Stiggycow 10 reviews from this member

 We stayed here for a one night stop over on our way to the Lake District. We liked it so much that we stayed another five nights on the way back.
We had a service pitch which was lovely, no aqua roll or waste hog to move around. The pitch was gravel with a grassy area next to it,very well kept.Showers and toilets were always clean even with all the rain we had.
We went to the pub just down the road,it was quiet  and reasonably priced.
From here we visited Woburn Safari Park. Bicester, Daventry, Oxford and of course Banbury.It's very central.
This is a great little site and we will return one day.
  


Date of Visit: May 2007 Unit:  Trailer Tent
Reviewer: Mystery_Shopper 3 reviews from this member

 We visited this site earlier in the year and haven't looked back as this site is ideally suited to visit loads of attractions including some first rate Museums & National Trust Properties.

In fact, there are so many attractions, we still haven't seen them all.

There's a large 24 hour Tesco with filling station about one mile down the road for any supplies that you might need & there are plenty of food outlets in the nearby town of Banbury.

We have found the owner extremely helpful as he has tried to meet any special requests that we had.

All in all, this is a great site in a great location & at £10 a night it's great value for money. 


Date of Visit: April 2007 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: Amycuk 1 review from this member

 Don't really want to write this review as would like to keep the campsite a secret! Having just returned from a short weekend break with my partner and our dog I would definitely recommend this site to others. It is situated just off the A423 to Banbury so very easy to get to. This said the road noise was barely noticeable even though we were in a tent.
The facilities were great, toilets, washing up area and showers all located in the one block and all spotlessly clean. There are 3 showers for use by both men and women each with plenty of space inside, locking doors & plenty of free hot water. There is even a mop outside to leave them as you would like to find them for the next person. Also in this block is a pay-phone and local interest leaflets. Within the field we pitched there is a fenced area for dog's to do their business with a dog mess bin also which was handy. I noticed there was also an enclosed children's play area.
There are lovely walks locally and The Bell Pub provides a great refreshment point afterwards (turn right at the campsite exit and is 200 metres down the road) . The village of Great Bourton and Cropredy are also very picturesque.
Overall the site is well run and layed out, with extremely reasonable prices.
Needless to say we will be going back as the site has definitely won our vote!

Date of Visit: August 2005 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: Mark Walker 6 reviews from this member

 We went as a group of 5 units (mixed tents and caravans) and stayed on the rally field. I can not recall receiving a better welcome from the chap running the site - he was extremely warm and helpful. The cleanliness of the washrooms was excellent, and the site represents remarkable value for money. Form the site, you can walk across the fields down to Cropredy where you can visit the picturesque canal area or visit one of the three excellent pubs in that village.
 


Date of Visit: October 2006 Unit:  Trailer Tent
Reviewer: Good intentions 6 reviews from this member

 We stayed for four nights at half term at this site near Banbury, intending to visit the Cotswolds.
 
The site has the most luxurious facilities I've ever seen on a site: the standard of decor and cleanliness is immaculate, and there are little touches which make it all very easy to use, such as hooks in the washing up area so you can hang up your coat, and a fan heater in case it's chilly (which it wasn't). A mop outside the showers means that people can clean up after themselves, and two doormats at the entrance mean the floor stays clean even when it rains (which it did!).
 
There are strict rules about children, such as nobody under 12 allowed in the facilities unaccompanied, no trikes or bikes allowed on site. We found the site very, very quiet - we might almost have been the only ones there, except that it was full! Perhaps this is explained by the high proportion of caravanners - there were only two other tents there when we stayed.
 
The nearby village of Great Bourton is very pretty, with a pub and a church, and a table with an  honesty box outside a house, with a range of home made jams for sale. No shop though.
 
For shopping, Tescos in Banbury is only 5 minutes away. There's also the Kraft factory which for most of our stay must have been roasting coffee!
 
Noise from the nearby M40 spoils the peace and quiet a little, but it was not loud enough to disturb our sleep. We'd definitely recommend this site, which is also enormous value for money.

Reviewer: Summerhayes 1 review from this member

 Returning to camping after many years, it was great to find such a friendly, clean and welcoming site. The camp is well maintained, with meticulously clean toilets, hot showers, washing up facilities, washing machine and tumble dryer. Nothing like I remembered camping used to be.
 
The enclosed children's play area was a hit with my daughter and I would highly recommend this site to anyone looking for a good, value for money, family friendly camp site. 


Date of Visit: March 2006 Unit:  Motorhome
Reviewer: Navman2860 6 reviews from this member

 Some service pitches with own supply of water electric and TV socket. Toilet block very clean and tidy. Great site, a few walks nearby as is the canal. A pub nearby that does very good food albeit a bit limited on the menu...... What there is though is very good
