 Beautifully maintained site, spotless facilities and very quiet for the school holidays.
Received a very warm welcome.
Some road noise which persisted throughout the night.
Space for the grandchildren to play safely with a ball and football nets were provided, but no other equipment, which was fine for us.

Actually our 3rd visit here, but the last time was 9 years ago. A pleasant site still. The facilities are a bit dated now, but clean.
There are 3 toilet cubicles in the ladies’ and 4 sinks, plus one shower. Similar in the gents’, though there are 2 other shower cubicles in the lobby to the facilities block, unisex.
All the showers are of the fixed nozzle, push button variety, but stay on a few seconds longer than I’ve experienced at other sites! Having said that, on one occasion, the spray was little more than a dribble, which made washing my hair difficult (showers busy at the time) and on another occasion, I had to keep my hand on the button as it would not stay pressed!
The shower in the ladies’ was my preference; it was also the only one with any rack for toiletries. Each shower also had a temperature control, which was better than at other sites, but even turned to maximum temperature it took a while for the water to get warm, and never too hot.
I soon discovered that the optimum place to put the black mat was in the area near the fold-down seat, so the floor area near the door stayed dry. Other people seemed to like the mat to be under the actual shower, meaning the entire floor – including the area where I would get dried & dressed was soaking wet! Some of the tiles I noticed were cracked. There were 2 hooks on the back of each door.
There was another toilet block (1 toilet & sink each for ladies & gents) in the top camping field, a decking area around it & on the opposite side, 2 washing up sinks, covered by a roof & at the sides, plus a freezer for campers; we didn’t use the freezer but did use the other facilities as our caravan pitch was at the top end of the site.
I preferred the washing up sinks there anyway, as the ones on the side of the main block were essentially in a ‘cupboard’ – very cramped & also did not have any plugs!
The facilities at the top of the site would also benefit from some pathways around it; access across the grass means trailing wet grass everywhere if it’s wet. Both washing up areas would also benefit from a bin for the disposal of any food waste, so avoiding clogging up the sinks.
The site in general would benefit from another shower block near the top of the site, particularly when the site is very busy.
There is free WIFI, but very patchy reception near the top of the site. Sometimes got a better reception by sitting in our awning or moving to an area lower down the site.
There is a one-way system around the site, and both entry and exit gates are by inputting a code, as is the entrance to the main facilities block. There is a 5mph speed limit, but not everyone appeared to stick to it!
Dogs welcome but to be kept on a lead. However, 3 or 4 times I witnessed different dogs not on a lead & roaming free, one crossing several people’s pitches & one little one – puppy perhaps – in the ladies’ toilets!
Its owner was in one of the cubicles ^ she was talking to it as it whimpered. I don’t care how young it was, on hygiene grounds, no dog (unless a guide dog) should have been taken into the toilets!
The reception has a shop for forgotten essentials and sweets etc, but on this occasion we didn’t use. Unfortunately, there is no laundry on site, but there is a laundrette in Banbury, though parking for that is awkward.
Near the main toilet block is the bin area, plus one for cardboard recycling. At the front of the main toilet block is a red telephone kiosk, now converted into a book corner! Great idea, one which we made use of, swapping some of our own we had brought and read. Opposite is a little shed with tourist leaflets, though none for The Cone Ice Cream Parlour, on Parsons Street, in Banbury! Well worth a visit!
Quite a lot of traffic noise from the adjacent A423, which is more noticeable during the night/or early hours, particularly when we heard motorbikes roaring past; some must have been doing close to a 100mph!

We had a lovely stay at Anita's. We were a group of 5 tents and had a corner of the camping (non-electric) field to ourselves, next to the sheep!
The grass was soft to pitch on, the staff were all friendly and helpful and the small shop was really useful, especially for fridge-cold drinks on a very hot weekend.
There is some road noise but it is distant and didn't bother us.
It was a bit of a walk to the toilet block and playing field (a cut-through through the hedge would be a welcome addition) but the toilets and showers themselves were clean and the building was warm.
A little more water pressure for the shower would have been nice, but it was fine. A bit more space/another sink or two at the washing up area would also be helpful.
Overall a really nice stay, thank you.

Definitely one of the best sites I have ever stayed at, a gem. Well laid out, well kept, well run, and with excellent facilities.
A very quiet site on the edge of a pretty village, next door to the church. Traditional village pub five ten minutes walk from site.
Close to Banbury, Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwick, The National Herb Centre, and more.
5 minutes (30 minute walk) from Cropredy, another pretty little village on the Oxford Canal - a perfect spot for gongoozling.
Good area for walkers, lots of footpath options directly from site, including national trails.

Anita's is a brilliant site with great facilities.
There is a shop on site for essentials and more.
The site is very well kept and the toilets and showers are very clean.
Lovely, thank you!

I contacted this campsite late on a Saturday afternoon asking for a pitch that same night. They were very helpful, friendly and sympathetic to the situation I found myself in.
Check in was very swift and professional. Our hardstanding pitch was well sized, clean and fairly level.
The facilities were a bit dated, but very clean and pleasant to use. Given the close proximity of a main road to the site, it was very quiet too.
In all I was very impressed with this site and what would seem to be a hidden gem.
I would recommend and would definitely return.

My business partner and I have been staying at this site each year when visiting the nearby Fairport's Cropredy Convention - a large, family friendly music festival for those who haven't yet come across it.
We always choose Anita's either for our pre-folk festival warm-up, or o take a few days to relax after the event. I have already left two previous reviews for this site, both positive and this third review remains unchanged.
The only thing I see that some people dislike about this site is noise from the nearby-ish motorway but it's all white noise that swiftly becomes background nois, so not a problem for me personally.
We stayed in one of the larger glamping pods again and was pleased to see that a couple of minor repairs that were needed last year had been attended to.
The pod is comfortable - not luxurious but more than meets the comfort levels for eight days of "camping" especially if using a tent is no longer an option.
It's close enough to Banbury for sightseeing and food shopping, far enough away to be in the heart of the countryside and makes a great base for visiting other nearby places of interest.
The motorway makes it convenient for Oxford and London if you're happy to venture further out.
I'm looking forward to using this site again in 2024 and am always happy to recommend Anita's touring site.

2nd stay here, lady who greeted us was lovely.
Gent who does the ground walk not so, didn’t speak was miserable just drove around on his golf cart.
Site lovely, could do with warmer water for longer in the shower and toilet block.
Pleasant stay

Well kept site with very clean but dated facilities. Showers especially could do with a make over.
Had to run showers a few minutes before hot water was available
Good walks in surrounding area. Local village pub no longer open
But over priced for time of year at £56 for 2 nights
