 A lovely campsite will be returning again soon The toilets showers were clean, think a few more would be a help but felt so relaxed did not bother me I had to wait. The children loved it and loved meeting the birds of prey.
The warden and his wife were lovely one of the best camping holidays I have had. Even the down pour of Rain we had. While going on a Hawk walk did not put me off. Not to far from a local pub we did not walk it though as just liked spending time on camp site.
Loads of room between pitches not sure what it would be like on a really busy day though. The price is great value to when I booked £15 a night for the pitch with hook up did not matter how many people in the tent it was a one off payment there are 5 of us so good value

We stayed at Fire Tree for three nights and had a lovely time. We were due to be camping in the Gower but the severe weather warning led us to find somewhere else, and the site was not far from home.
The site is a valley with the tent area at the bottom, the site office and small shop/cafe at the top. The shower block is also located at the bottom, a short walk from the tents.
Pros:
* Very friendly owner/young guy from the falconry centre. They made us very welcome.
* Shower/toilet block was spotless. Site was not busy so didn't have to queue. There is only one block but the site is favoured by caravans who would use the block less.
* Amazing drainage if it rains. The last night we had monsoon rain all night and when we woke there was not a puddle to be seen!
* Lots of space for the children to run round even though there was not a play area
* Falconry centre at the top of the hill is well worth a visit
* Lots of portaloos around the site in case the walk to the shower block is too far (in the night with a small child!)
* Near to Banbury for supplies. Go and visit the outdoor 50m pool at Banbury, which the kids loved!
Cons:
* No washing machine or dryer. The site is geared more to caravans than tents but the lack of even a dryer can be a pain. We were unlucky to have some wet weather and while we did get things dry it would have been handy to have a dryer.
* Was a bit quiet. Not really a con, and due to the weather. But with hardly any children around it seemed a bit quiet!
All in all, we had a great time!

Have just spent 6 nights at this site and had a lovely time. It is a bit of a strange site with a combination of camping facilities, fishing and the falconry centre. The site is in a beautiful position with a large fishing lake in the middle. The Falconry Centre is at the entrance and we had a look at all the birds and then the warden flew an eagle, falcon and an owl and both my children were able to hold one. You have to pay for this of course but that was a nice thing to do.
The site itself was pretty quiet, we were the only tent for 5 nights in an enormous field although there were a few caravans and motorhomes. The shower block consists of 4 rooms all with shower, toilet and basin and were very clean. Dotted around the campsite are portaloos discreetly hidden in the hedges, I think these are mainly for the fisherman who spend a day fishing there, they do not have a key for the shower block. We used the portaloos quite a lot near our tent because it was a longer trek to the shower block and they were fine. There is only one double sink for washing up which was fine for us as we were the only tent for 5 nights but when we left on Saturday a few more campers had arrived so there might be some queueing!
Near the entrance to the site is the best farm shop we have ever visited selling meat, veg, cheese, fish, cakes etc and the Herb Centre (garden centre) across the road served up a lovely lunch and also has a nature trail within the grounds, ask at the gift shop for a laminated map/directions.
Overall I think the campsite is a hidden gem and the website does not do it justice but maybe they like it that way, nice and quiet with not too many visitors and acres of space.

A very attractive site set in a natural bowl with 2 fishing lakes. The toilets/showers were excellent,you get a key to private bathroom type rooms very clean and plenty hot water.
Washing up has only two sinks without a draining board which is a bit of a problem, but very friendly warden and wife said they would address this.
Pub in Warmington The Plough is very cosy with real ales and good food. Also one of the best outdoor swimming pools found at Banbury is just down the road 50meters very clean and heated its fab - we went there every morning.
The falconry centre on site is also very interesting and the little cafe shop is very nice too.

We stayed here for one night, it was the first time every camping but we all had a fab time. The toilet block was fantastic and expectionally clean, plenty of room for changing and no chance of getting clothes wet whilst showering.
We pitched at the bottom of the hill, close to the fence and there was loads of space between the tents. Although, there was not children's play area the space was wide enough to keep the children occupied.
The town of Warmington is well worth a look, very 'olde world' and the local pub does nice meals and ales.
We will definitely return, and this time bring a better torch as there is no lighting in the park.

Very impressed with everything, friendly welcome. Showers and toilets clean, good dog walking area, fishing lake on site, well stocked.
If you like birds of prey, you will love the falconry, interesting small shop along side. Reasonable priced coffee / snack shop, seating outside so can enjoy the views. Looking forward to our next visit

Stayed for a couple of nights over the Bank Holiday weekend.
Despite the poor weather, a good time was had by all.
Very clean, pretty site, situated in a natural 'bowl' surrounded by hills, so fairly sheltered. This means a steep drive in/out - not sure how you'd get on with a caravan if it was wet.
Have to pass comment on the new showers - very clean, plenty of space and free too!
Both the warden (also the falconry bloke) and the refreshment hut lady were genuinely friendly and helpful.
We'd definitely go back.

We wanted a campsite fairly near to home so that we could practice putting up our awning. This site lived up to all the positive reviews we read prior to booking. The warden and his wife were friendly and helpful, the site was well-kept and clean with great showers, the views were lovely. The falconry centre was very interesting and g=has won many awards.
It's also worth noting that you can walk to the pub in Warmington in about 10 - 15 minutes which we found very friendly and with reasonably priced, excellent pub grub.
Also, the National Herb Centre is virtually opposite the farm entrance and a caravan centre is just down the road which has a well-stocked camping and caravanning shop for any bits you may need to get. Between the two is a farm butchers and veg shop (we didn't need this facility but it looked good and was very close). We'll definitely use this site again.

We have just returned from a two night stay at this campsite. We had a lovely time and in fact my 6yr old said it was 'the best site ever'.
The welcome was friendly and we were advised where to pitch which was in the bottom field by the fence. The site although on the side of a valley had fairly level pitches and there were hard standings available.
The site was very well kept with good drainage and plenty of space between pitches. The new toilet facilities were warm and very clean there are only four but we didn't have to wait in each cubicle there is a shower, toilet and wash basin. To the side of the shower block are two sinks for washing up under cover and at the rear of the block is the chemical toilet point.
There is a great dog walk area which is around the outside of a field which is fenced and gated. There are two fishing pools very open on the site so watch the little ones, walks directly into the countryside from the site where we saw deer and the falconry centre which we didn't use this time but the prices seemed very good.
There is no play area but plenty of space to run around and no shop on site which wasn't a problem to us. There is a snack shop selling hot dogs, burgers etc very tasty and good value. Also there is a tesco in banbury and fast food restaurants which is about ten minutes up the road.
It is a lovely quiet site and we will definitely be returning.

Stopped for 3 nights over Easter, and can quite positively say that this is one of the worst sites we have been to. There are 3 fields. If your not in the lower one, then please be ready for a very steep uphill climb back from the one and only minuscule toilet/ shower block, which was filthy ( and mixed = men/women ).
There is no shop, and just one bloke who just took your money = no receipt. Never again. Yes it was £15, but we were not told about the lousy facilities

Just back from a brilliant weekend at fir tree farm. New shower block is awesome. Great cake at the falconry centre and the birds put on an impressive show for us.
Surrounding countryside is beautiful. Pub and farmshop within walking distance. Not far from banbury or stratford so good base for touring.
Clean and tidy and well maintained. We will be going back again if they will have us

Lovely site. The owner is so friendly and helpful. Nothing seemed to be too much trouble. Fantastic views. Lovely shower block. Gorgeous lake. Brilliant walks. For £10 per night this is a superb site. We will definitely be returning.
We visited The Swan Inn in Banbury to watch the football match that was on and the locals were all very friendly.
We would thoroughly recommend this site to all.

The showers are working! 4 clean, hot showers with toilets and a sink in each cubicle. I know some people had cold showers but the campsite people are working hard to ensure the little glitches with the boiler are overcome. For such a large site there was quite a queue first thing for the showers and as the toilets are contained within then if you only want the toilet you have to wait. Though the portaloos are still available and with less use aren't quite as smelly as sometimes. It would be good to see some separate toilets and washing up areas in the future.
We pitched our tents (a group of four tents) on a little plateau all to ourselves which definitely added to our holiday feel. The ground is hard in some areas and sandy in others.
We enjoyed our visit to the falconry centre(on site) and Kenilworth Castle was less than half an hour drive away.
Definitely worth visiting this beautiful site.

Our first ever camping trip and what fun we had! (Mum, Dad and kids aged 6 and 4)
We chose this site as it was localish, and about the only one that had pitches available at such short notice.
We arrived late on Friday afternoon and were shown our pitch from the Falconry Centre, and got set up hassle free, with lovely views and sort of between the two lakes.
Toilets were a short walk from pitch, portaloos, but very clean, the shower block is not quite finished yet. We paid just £10 per night inclusive of electric hook up.
What luck too. Fir Tree Falconry had their open day on the Saturday and we got to see many birds of prey in action, owls and reptiles all up close. The kids loved it, but not quite as much as rolling down the hill!
There is a Brewers Fayre (The Wobbly Wheel) pub 5 mins up the road, we took the car as the hill from bottom to top was quite steep and had a pleasant Saturday afternoon meal.
The trek to empty the loo was definitely a car journey too, really steep, unless your feeling fit!
All in all, great fun, lovely well kept friendly site, we will return.

The bad bit, no showers yet but they are nearly done. A very friendly place views to die for and if you walk there are lots of places to see and eat all within 2.5 miles.
Falconry on site and a fishing lake but the lake is not crowded so yo can still enjoy it. All the pitches on the bottom field were very well spread out I did not look at the set up on the top field.
Will be back for several weekends this year
