We had a hard standing and as site was quiet number-wise we were allowed to choose where. There is a lot of space and you don't feel crowded at all. We had a warm welcome from the lady owner. The down side is that we paid £22 (including EHU) but the facilities are rather 'tired', based in a couple of portakabins which are showing their age. Everything was clean, just not up to standard for the price.
CDP is round the back of toilets, access okay not brilliant, fresh water area could be muddy in wet as could wash-up area. Grey water is disposed in in the hedge!

A small quiet campsite in a rural location, but very easy to get to. It's within very easy reach of Hatton Adventure Park, Warwick Castle, various National Trust properties etc.
The pros: The site is in a beautiful location and really nicely laid out. It could accommodate many more pitches but doesn't and this gives it a really spacious feel and the pitch sizes are lovely and roomy. There are pitches with or without EHU? There are lots a rules which you are told when you arrive, but that's no bad thing and keeps the site calm friendly. By 10pm the site is silent, so if you want a good night's sleep you'll get it here.
Another pro in my opinion is that there is no WIFI and 4G is non-existent and 3G extremely intermittent. It was good for adults and kids alike to to take a break from it all.
The satisfactorily: toilets and showers are fine. They're clean and in a portacabin. A building would be nicer but these are fine.
The cons: the washing up area needs improving. It would benefit from a shelter as currently it is open to the elements so washing up can only be done when not raining. Also there are two sinks but only one has a draining board. Washing up without a draining board is tricky.
The site advertises being child friendly and there is a nice green space for the children to play in but it would maybe benefit from a swing or two.
The price of the site is quite steep considering the lack of on site facilities, but I suppose you pay a premium for peace and quiet.
Overall, however, a lovely little site.

Great location - very quiet and seemingly in the middle of nowhere but close to a number of National Trust properties in the area and Warwick Castle. Basic campsite but with well maintained facilities - a couple of hot showers, a toilet block and outdoor washing up facilities.

On the positive side: the field was well drained, grass cut and evidently well maintained. The pitch was flat, (we had a hard standing pitch) so no need for ramps. Easy access to the site and well situated for 'doing stuff' in the area. The facilities were clean.
The negative aspects for us at least, is that the price of £23 per night for two adults and a dog was far too expensive for the facilities on offer (or not). No WIFI and no clothes washing facilities. The somewhat tired porta-cabins which housed the toilets and showers are basic with evidence of wear and tear eg. Rust, wallpaper coming unstuck and so forth; the flusher in the first toilet didn't seem to work properly and took ages to flush (in the ladies). The drinking water tap for general use has no effective pressure, so takes ages to fill up even a small container.
The facilities for washing dishes has no shelter, consequently if it rains - which happens more often than not in the UK, it's not possible to use them.
As a comparison, we normally stay at a more established site in Stratford which charges (same period) £18 per night (50p to use the showers), but showers and toilets in a brick building with good quality toilet paper! The dish washing facilities are under cover as are the clothes washing facilities. (We would have stayed there, but they were fully booked).
I think that porta-cabins are not a good substitute for proper campsite facilities, certainly not at those “mid-season” prices. It’s not clear why they charge for dogs, the majority of campsites that we have been to, do not.
Finally, I suggest that they could consider reconfiguring the pitches in the field perhaps setting them out in such a way to reduce the “trek” to the loos and even build hedges to separate out areas in order to offer more privacy for campers.

This was the best site we could sensibly find allowing us to combine a trip into the NEC for The Manics and a visit to Warwick. The site is very rural and provides good camping basics. There are clean toilets and showers and good, well spaced pitches. There are plenty of rules. None of which should need listing really but I had to agree with them all, especially the one about dogs on leads. They were enforced too! Thank you Simon.
The pub (5 minutes walk) is a gem. Even better, no phones, no kids, no food, no dogs (not even on a lead) just good beer!
A great site that did everything we wanted.

Visited for 1 night on way south from Scotland to our new life in Italy. Met by owner on arrival at site, although they had already sent most helpful email with pitch number prior to our arrival. Excellent site on working farm so handy for us as one of us grew up on farm. Remember everyone, keep dogs on leads as this is not a playground. Our 2 Cairn Terriers were most at home.
The travelling directions were excellent but my husband thought he knew best so we ended up towing a twin axle caravan with 19ft MPV tow vehicle up Warwick HIgh Street on Saturday afternoon and then through the narrow lanes to the site. Fortunately we didn't appear to have upset too many locals but, fellow campers, do follow the helpful advice from the owners. More helpful advice from owner regarding evening places to visit. Had a nice meal in Tom Of The Woods Pub, suggest campers try to book table in advance as busy. Sorry we missed out on local pork pie but ate very well at a good price and friendly staff despite being busy with diners and the regular bar patrons. Dog friendly beer garden if you wish to eat or imbibe there with your four legged friends. We left our 2 in car however. Saw owners again later in lovely little pub he had earlier advised, dogs not allowed as it is a bit tight for space, no problem for us, and owner did say that we wouldn't get a pint of English Ale where we were going in Italy. He was right again but we are coping fine here without.
Facilities on site are simple but more than adequate and clean. Hook up for our caravan was very handy. Site might be a bit busy in high season but we visited very early April. It might be worth mentioning to campers that this is a farm field so if weather is inclement then be very careful when towing on wet grass as you might get stuck. I am sure the owners would resolve any such problems however.
Plenty hot water on the Sunday morning of our departure. Excellent directions again from owner the day before for our departure to motorway which husband listened to this time. The site is a short trip off the main motorway system but worth it for the tranquillity offered. We had hoped to stay closer to the motorway system as we had a 1500 mile trip to cover but very glad we found Mousley Farm. We would have missed out on the evening dining and lovely little pub if not and as a last stay in the UK the site shone much higher than any of the sites we stayed in through Scotland, England, France and Italy. Shame we have left the UK as would love to have visited again.

We used this site for a ‘shake-down’ first trip of the season, only an hour from home, so we could nip back if we’d forgotten anything ! (We hadn’t). Must admit we found the owner’s website with its comprehensive rules section a little disconcerting but having met Simon and understanding his desire for visitors to enjoy their stay without disruptive behaviour from others, our worries were unfounded.
The site is a large field, sloping gently down from the road with generous spaces between the pitches. The toilet and shower blocks were very well kept while we were there; an important point for a well-run site. There was plenty of information on local attractions and Simon recommended the ‘Tom O the Wood’ for their food and he was spot on. There are plenty of other hostelries nearby as well.
Warwick is just down the road, with plenty to see and do.
There had been a fair amount of rain during the week before our stay and it rained every night while we were there, so the ground became somewhat ‘claggy’ and we were a little concerned about getting of the pitch. However, the size of the field means there is plenty of room for a straight-out takeoff and a swing around to the gate, where there is hard standing. Simon had said he would be available to help with his Land Rover if necessary but, happily, no problem.
Having found Mousley House Farm we’ll certainly be back for quick weekends away.

We had booked our pitch in advance and were surprisingly told we could not arrive before 2pm. This is the first time we have not been able to arrive at a site by 12pm at the latest - in over 12 years of caravanning/camping. It was a lovely weekend and we had wanted to make the most our time away. We actually arrived at the site at 1. 30pm and found not all pitches to be taken and it seems we could have arrived earlier after all which was so frustrating and more than a little annoying! Another annoyance was the fact that we had to be off site by 12 noon the following day - fair enough but we did politely ask if we could stay longer to make the most of the weather. We were told we could but had to unhook the electric otherwise we would be charged another 1/2 a day. We did stay and duly unhooked but were approached by the owner who said there was a missunderstaning and that we could leave our van later but only if we were not with it! The only electric we were likely to use would have been to boil the kettle and this penny pinching attitude seemed so unnecessary and has made us think twice about returning to an otherwise lovely rural site
The location is ideal for Hatton World, Warwick, Sutton Coldfield and many other places bothe town and country. The facilities are quite basic but clean. Something we did note, but it did not affect us, was that the outdoor washing up area was only supplied with cold water. Whilst in the toilet block I spoke to a camper who was 'pinching' some hot water as she was finding it difficult to wash up greasy pots in only cold water. Taking all things into consideration we felt the amount per night charged - £21 in our case with 2 adults and 1 child in a touring caravan was on the steep side and we shall look for better value another time.

A basic campsite with stunning views.
The family are in the third year of setting their campsite up. A toilet block with showers (hot and powerful) are now in situ.
I was a tad disappointed that you could only wash up with cold water but I'm sure that will be rectified with time.
I'd advise to read your email otherwise you may need to move your tent. Tents are located in the sheltered section of the site.
Awesome location for so many beautiful places and there were some amazing sunsets too. We will return.

Just back from a fantastic stay at Mousley House Farm Campsite -- our first time and won't be the last.
Lovely quiet well-maintained site, super clean toilets, lovely big shower rooms with plenty of space, well-drained site that didn't get muddy or waterlogged despite torrential rain.
Incredibly handy for Warwick Castle (note that if you use Tesco vouchers you get to use the fast-track gate, highly recommended -- we spent a full day there, loads to see and do, including the most entertaining birds-of-prey show we've seen, and we've seen quite a few!), Shakespeare houses (5-House Family Pass is great value, kids especially loved Mary Arden's Farm where we spent a full day - tempted to return at Easter as the pass lasts 12 months), Kenilworth Castle and lots of walks -- the 'Enjoying the Beauty of Berkswell' walk on the AA website is an especially good one, great directions and just up the road from the site).
Nice kid- and dog-friendly pubs nearby -- our favourite was the Fleur de Lys. Thanks so much!
