 Fantastic place sited on the outskirts of beautiful charlbury. The site is nicely laid out and never feels too crowded even when at capacity. Pitch sizes are good.
If electric it does state on website that a long lead is required which it is. About 15 metres minimum. Very polite staff. Very clean. Great walks to the small town.
All in all a lovely site great for couples or families.

What a great find! We have just spent 4 nights here. The pitches are a good size and the facilities are great. There is a lot to keep children entertained and beautiful walks for the dogs. I can imagine it gets quite busy/noisy in the summer but this break was perfect for us (no children but a dog!)
It's a 20 min walk into Charlbury, mostly through fields. There you will find a few shops and 3 pubs.
Admittedly we were spoilt with lovely weather but the location, staff and facilities made this an excellent find and we will definitely be back.
The Old Shed cafe was also a real bonus, serving great food and cakes.

We stayed at this site for Easter week. We chose it because of the location to visit places like Oxford and the Cotswolds, plus we liked the look of the facilities.
It's a well set out site, plenty of space and most pitches are flat or very slightly sloping. There are two similar facilities blocks. Showers and toilets are reasonably clean, but we found the hot water to be less reliable in the block closest to reception. Washing up is outside but covered.
There was a couple of freezers available by these for cool blocks which was fab. There are plenty of bins and water pipes around the site, though we felt there should also be a recycling bin available at these points, many other people it seemed, couldn't be bothered to take their recycling to the designated bins nearer reception.
There are lovely playgrounds for the children, 2 set with pitches nearby and some with direct access, which would be ideal if you have smaller children. Also a farm animal walk, woodland walk and football pitch and zip wire. We ran out of time to use the skittles (£5/hour) and tennis court but there's certainly a lot to do.
Reception was very helpful, taking in our shopping whilst we had been delayed arriving by 10 minutes and they stock a small but useful shop, including warm croissants! We went to the Old Shed a couple of times for cake, it's a lovely cafe. Fish and chip van also came on Saturday. Like many places, Easter week proved challenging with the weather and some pitches were quite a mudfest, and the owners had to retrieve some units with a tractor.
Whilst we were there, we went to Oxford a few times, it's about 20 minutes drive to the nearest park and ride and then 10 minutes on the bus. We also visited Blenheim palace (10 mins away), Bletchley Park (1hr), and did tours of the Cotswold villages, and some of the Ridgeway walk. We would definitely consider staying again.

Spent a couple of weeks at Cotswold View in October 2017 in our RV. My brother and his family stayed in one of the cottages for four nights; my step-daughter and her family stayed in one of the pods for a couple of nights as well.
Overall the site is absolutely fabulous and is the perfect holiday destination, particularly with children. We had two six year old girls and an 11 year old with us for the week and all enjoyed themselves immensely. Walks in the woods, playing in the playground or just enjoying the surrounding areas it really was fabulous.
We did not use the facilities other than the laundry, which was excellent value. Ordering bread and croissant for the following day was lovely, and very french. The farmyard animals were popular and The Shed was brilliant for lovely tea and cake in the afternoon!
Cotswold View is ideally located for exploring the Cotswolds; Chipping Norton is quite nice and has a brilliant butcher's shop - Trev Beadle's - and is quite nearby; Bourton-on-the-water is a must visit; Oxford is also worth a visit although we'd recommend the park and ride.
Overall we had a wonderful time and will undoubtedly return at some stage.

Our go to site for a weekend away!
Lovely site with plenty to do on-site for kids of all ages and plenty of walks around for the adults.
Can get a little busy in high-season weekends but plenty of space and as site is broken up into separate areas you never feel like you're on a big site

We've held some rallies here & the site itself is very nice although they wouldn't give us discount with multiple units.
However with that said its a nice well maintained site with friendly & helpful staff. The on site shop sells quite a bit too considering it's size.
I've been there four times now & I'd happily go there again. The fish & chip van is a bonus on a Saturday evening too.

Booked this site as we were trying to find somewhere in between Reading and Worcester and Birmingham. We did a family barbecue on the Sunday and as there were 6 children ranging from 4 up to 9 this site was perfect. We found everything about it very relaxing.
The zip line and playgrounds were ideal to keep the children amused for a few hours.
Staff were very friendly and helpful. We probably wouldn't go there if there was just the 2 of us during the school holidays as there were a lot of kids and bikes but perfect for families and I'm sure when the children are back at school it would be less crowded.
There is a lovely woodland walk and farm animals to see and a good cafe on site.

Spent a week at this lovely site. Well maintained toilets. Clean water near by. Bins emptied daily. Wish they had a leaflet to tell you where everything was. We were put right next to park on grass pitch, luckily it was low season.
I think they put us there because grass pitches were the cheapest, we are on a pension so have to be careful with money. You can order fresh bread from shop, sorry but the bread had no taste.
Fish and chip van came on saturday, fish was nice, chips were frozen so weren't very nice. Cafe on site far to expensive 2 pound for cup of tea. Lady on site said she'd been using the site for 8 years but never used the cafe for other campers told her how expensive it was.
Shame for if they lowered their prices they would get more custom 11 pound for a breakfast. Would we return, sorry no far to expensive

We visited here for a few days as a base to explore the Cotswolds, and it was mainly a good experience.
The site is in a good location, close to Charlbury. It is a mature and attractive site, and they were re-turfing areas whilst we were there to keep it that way. Although a reasonably large site, the layout breaks it up into different areas to give it a nice feel. Pitches are a good size. The woodland walks are very good - big enough to be useful.
Although not particularly modern, the showers are good and toilets usually clean, although there always seemed to be water on the floor, meaning that you have to be careful to keep your clothes dry.
Our only negative relates to the site rules. When looking at site rules, as well as laying out the behaviour expected from campers, they inform prospective visitors of what they can expect from this site. The booking conditions or site rules stated 'unable to cater for groups', 'quiet must be observed between 11:00pm and 7:00am', '.
Open fires [is] strictly prohibited, as are log burners, fire baskets. '. It therefore came as something of a disappointment to be woken past midnight by a group of families from about 6 units (that the site had clearly put together in a block of adjacent pitches), around a blazing fire, getting louder as the evening progressed.
Another group, just a little further away, also with a fire, still playing music. In fairness to the site, a phone call prompted a warden to come and quieten things down, but it shouldn't have been necessary to be woken or to make the phone call. Either enforce your rules, or don't have them.

We visited here for four nights with a family of 6 the youngest being 6months and the eldest child being 7. The campsite was booked on a spur of the moment decision as the weather was nice.
We arrived at the site and found our spot which was brilliant as it was next to a big play park so the children could play whilst we put the tent up. There are three play parks there to play on as well as the trail which has some exercising equipment on which was nice. You can take a look around the farm yard animals seeing pigs, chickens, sheep Donkey and goats.
The toilet bock was brilliant and always clean, the games room was a good idea as well.
At the reception you could order fresh croissants and pan chocolate which went down a treat, there was also a lovely little cafe which served breakfast and cakes which we loved.
Whilst there we visited Warwick Castle, Bourton on the water and Moreton in the marsh which everyone really enjoyed.
The campsite was probably the best campsite we have stayed in and we will be definitely coming back for another visit.
This campsite is hidden away and really is a hidden Gem!
