We have previously only stayed on small 5 unit sites but were unable to find one for the August Bank Holiday and needed to have easy access to Winchester. This 30 unit site was therefore huge compared to what we are used to. We were pleasantly surprised. We were met and directed to our pitch on arrival and told where the jockey wheel had to sit.
The ladies washblock consisted of 3 loos and 2 showers although we mainly relied on our own facilities. The site facilities were however clean with plenty of loo roll and we'd have been happy to use them if we hadn't been self-sufficient. There was a hairdryer which was 20p to use. Excellent rubbish and recycling facilities including a special bin for disposable bbqs.
Although there were no children in our party, the children's play facilities appeared to be well used and enjoyed without impacting on the peace and quiet of this site. The Warden advised us he didn't like noise after 11pm which was absolute bliss and in fact the site was quiet much earlier than that. The site was so peaceful we were content to spend the whole Sunday just chilling.
Our only complaint would be that the waste water takes a long time to drain away - but we put this down to other people's carelessness, e.G. Emptying excessive food waste in grey water down it. The CDP was fine and at a good height for easy access.
Departure was easy with the Warden advising us which way would be easiest for us to drive off our good sized pitch.
If we ever need to stay in the area again we would not hesitate to return to this site.
Can't fault this campsite. We paid £14 per night in peak season, for 2 adults, 2 young kids and electric. Bargain!
We were made to feel really welcome and were shown to a lovely pitch, almost completely flat.
The shower block and washing up station were nearby and cleaned regularly. There was plenty of hot water. We had to wait on Sunday morning for a shower but other days there was no queue.
The kids loved the playground and would have happily spent all day there! They made new friends and there was plenty of room for them to run and cycle about, and yet it never seemed noisy.
There was traffic noise but the site is not far from the A34 so it's as you'd expect.
A Great site, and a great weekend. We have just returned from Oakley farm and have thoroughly enjoyed it.
After a horrifically long traffic ridden journey to Newbury with our 2 and 3 year old girls, it was a great to get there and meet Mick the warden as you enter the site. He is incredibly friendly and helpful and the kids loved him.
The site is clean and tidy and everyone was polite. We camped on the field next to the play area, Mick advised us of the best spot!, and there was plenty of room. All the children played together on the slide and swings for hours leaving the adults to mingle and BBQ.
The facilities, albeit basic were very clean Two showers, 3 cubicles and three sinks. Mick cleans them all a couple of times a day. The washing area was large enough and had plenty of piping hot water. They also have full recycling facilities on site.
At night is was peaceful and quiet and the site is lit just enough to be able to find your way around.
All in all a great weekend and we will return, if we can get in.!
We just got back from 6 nights here it was lovely. On arrival we were greeted by the warden who is in the first caravan that you come to as you enter the main field he was very helpful. We had booked an electric pitch very reasonable the pitch with electric 2 adults and 2 children was £14 a night bargain. Mick the warden told us we could have a pitch that he had saved for us in the main caravan field or we could go into the tent field we choose the caravan field it was a large pitch with very level and well drained ground.
The toilet block has 2 showers in mens and ladies and 3 or 4 toilets in each. They were basic but very clean and just what you needed really. For the children there is a play ground in the main field which had a slide, basketball hoop and swings they also have a tennis court which is free not something we have come across before.
The site is really quite they ask that you be quite after 10pm and there is a gate that gets locked at 11pm but this isnt a problem because there is somewhere to park if you get back after 11pm and you can get in on foot but what it does stop which I have experienced before is people driving round like nutters in the dark.
The warden is always around and it makes you feel very secure knowing that your belongings in your tent are probably as safe as they could ever be when you are camping.
Newbury is about 5-10 mins in the car and tescos and a retail park are just up the rd about 2 miles also they do have some local shops at Wash common but we didn't use them.
They ask you to vacate your pitch by 1pm on the day you leave but it was raining really bad and mick was lovely and helpful and told us we could leave it up for a while which helped it to dry off. All in all we had a brilliant time and would have liked to return for aug bank hols unfortunately they are fully booked but I have no doubt we will return next year.
First time here - and I was very happy with what I found.
There is a warden on site all the time, who was welcoming and helpful, gave me a quick tour, then let me decide where I wanted to pitch my tent.
The site is nearly flat, and well maintained. The grass had been cut, but they must collect the cuttings, as none found their way into my tent!
There were a lot of very heavy showers whilst I was there - but the ground stayed in wonderful condition - no signs of puddles or muddy areas - testament to the good drainage they have.
The toilets/shower blocks are good and kept nice and clean. Hot water is free, both in the showers and for washing up. The sinks for washing up are under a good shelter, and the 3 of them were never busy.
It is about 1.5 miles to the Budgens supermarket, but that was a good size, and if you want more, there is always Newbury 2 miles away.
This is a perfect base for exploring the area, be it the Downs, the Canal, the villages and towns or the countryside.
The best bit is that all these excellent facilities cost me and my tent just £3.50 a night! Superb value. If I'm this way again, I will definitely go again.

We stayed here for just a night to break our return journey from Dorset, choosing the site because of its location, just off the A34. We were welcomed by the resident warden and honoured to be given the pitch next to his (because there were only two of us and he judged we'd be quiet!)
Pleasant site, large pitch, showers and toilets basic but clean. The Woodpecker pub is just a ten minute walk away and serves a decent range of pub food.
Certainly did the job for what we needed, at a reasonable price - £12 for the night.
This trip was the first I'd made with my children camping, and it was a great success.
The campsite was nice a low-key, with a small children's play area, and tennis court. The washing facilities were nice and clean, and the man on site was very helpful.
The whole site was very clean and tidy, with no mess from previous campers which my main complaint about other sites.
Shopping wise there was a large 24 hour Tesco Extra and Boots with midnight chemist under 10 minutes away by car. Plus a pizza hut and MacDonalds for when the camp food went wrong.
There is also a petrol station 5 minutes away with a small supermarket inside and cash machine.
The only problems I had on the site were the height of the sinks in the wash block, my 7 year old couldn't reach them to clean her teeth, and the swings in the park had no protective surface underneath, and there were some sharp looking stones in the mud. Nothing that couldn't be fixed by a step stool and a trip to toys r us for the owners though.
We only booked this site as a stopover for attending Newbury Races and we were really pleased with it as we had no expectations. We arrived later than expected and were greeted by the site warden who told us where we could pitch and how to use the electric hookup as it is on a meter. It was £2 but lasted forever so certainly not something to put you off.
The facilities were clean albeit basic but we didn’t expect anything flash so we were plenty happy enough. There was a small playground in the back corner of the site but we didn’t have children with us and there weren’t any on site when we went so cannot really comment on how satisfactory they are.
We will definitely return to this site if we need stopover in the area and would recommend to others.
This was our first camping experience and we thought it was a very nice site.
Small site with friendly chap who was happy to offer us advice and assistance. There was a group of 8 youngsters also camping and the warden kept an extra but unseen eye on these. No problems at all.
Quite far for a stroll to the local shops - but nice pub 10 mins away.
Showers and facilities much better than I would have imagined and tennis court onsite.
Lovely lovely lovely relaxing time - we even stayed 2 extra nights.
This site is one of the best sites we have stayed on. Clean, friendly, and most of all very safe for the children. We had a great time and are already booked to go back this august (2009). The wildlife was wonderful, kestrels, buzzards, foxes, rabbits and, the children loved the new calves in the next field. Beautiful woodland walks in penwood. Tesco extra, mcdonalds, pizza hut all a short drive away. Budgens supermarket, a fish and chip shop and 2 pubs you can walk to. The local pub (the woodpecker) was not child friendly so we didn't get to go in that one. The campsite was full when we went but there were more than enough showers and toilets so you never had to wait for one. Excellent value for money.
