Reviewer: Tracybb 4 reviews from this member

 Stayed for 3 night stay in the middle of August. This is a fantastic little site. There were only a dozen or so pitches occupied which was great as the spotless showers were few in number. There is a newish toilet block which was a delight plus an older unit which was better than ok & was clean! The pitches are pretty much flat which makes a huge difference at night!

The site is ideal for walkers as the site is very close to the Winchcombe Way & the Cotswold Way. There is an on site warden who can help with walks.

There is a great shop on site - it's a bit of a farm shop come deli, fantastic local produce, fruit can be picked on site & the Badger Bottom Cider is great after a long walk. There is a Spa at Toddington, or Winchcombe is about 15 mins away and you are not too far from Cheltenham.

There is plenty to do in the area, so something for everyone.

 Spent a very pleasurable day and night. The weather was good which always helps, the campsite was well spaced out, good facilities with a new shower block.

It was a traditional type camping site on a farm, without too many regulations which is what I like. Its a beautiful spot with lovely walks nearby, we did a circular walk to Winchcombe taking in some of the Cotswold way.

We will be back.

 Just spent a night here and it was lovely. Very peaceful, clean toilets and showers and a lovely walk around the lakes and woodland.

Very friendly staff as well. Shop and cafe on site which is great. Will definitely return.

 Lovely quiet site. Staff very friendly. Map of site they give you is good but pitches are not marked, so found we were standing there counting caravans to work out which was our pitch.

The other thing that was not to good you have drive upto the shop to book in & we had trouble turning around as the car park was busy. But once set up we were not disappointed.

 Stayed here for 3 nights over the August Bank holiday. The site is in a great location with many interesting places to visit in easy reach. Cheltenham can be reached via the GWR heritage railway, while the picturesque tourist hotspots of Stow in the Wold, Broadway and Bourton on the Water are a short drive away.

The site is located on the Cotswold Way footpath. The site shop is well stocked and restaurant served up a very tasty meal at a good price. The toilet and shower facilities are basic and not really enough for the numbers on site.

The site seems to be popular for group gatherings. There is supposed to be a no loud music and quiet after 11pm policy but this was not enforced during our stay.

Reviewer: Anita mary mansell 1 review from this member

 I have just celebrated my 60th birthday here with family and friends. This is an idyllic location surrounded by the beautiful Cotswolds. There are glorious walks, long and short (the Cotwold Way runs alongside the farm )directly from the campsite.

This is an unspoilt and non-touristy part of the Cotswold with the ruins of Hailes Abbey and the beautiful 11 th century church just down the lane.

The staff are extremely helpful and friendly and the farm shop stocks some lovely fresh produce. The fish and chips from the cafe (cooked for 37 !) were delicious !

The site is non regimented (a plus in my books) and you can hire firepits and wood (another big plus ). The facilities are fairly basic so don't go expecting any thing more upmarket.

I cannot recommend it highly enough. 


Date of Visit: June 2015 Unit:  Motorhome
Reviewer: Carole934 10 reviews from this member

 I'm so glad I chose this place for my 3-night maiden voyage with the motorhome. The campsite was relaxed, with very clean facilities that were serviced regularly by the friendly staff.

The farm shop and cafe were lovely - real local and home-made goodies in both. The staff were all very friendly and made me, and Harry the Labrador, very welcome. There were some lovely walks, and the farm lake was charming.

A bit tricky to find, but it was the first time out and a sat-nav is on the shopping list! Thoroughly recommended.

 Spent just 1 night here on our way to dorset. Nice site fairly level, nice wardens. Clean toilet/shower block, washing-up area, even liked the fact that the CDP was under cover.

There's a duck/fishing pond in the centre of the site, and the younger ducks will eat out of your hand as the wife found out. Only thing to watch out for is the duck poo.

We were pitched near the storage area which meant being closer to the road so we did get road noise but, as the evening drew on this did die down considerably and had no effect on our good nights sleep. 


Date of Visit: September 2014 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: AndyB1969 5 reviews from this member

 What a great campsite in so many ways, but let down slightly by its poor facilities. We stayed with three families with two children each in tents for the weekend in September. Actually you couldn't want a more perfect location with zero road noise and set in a peaceful surroundings with the added benefit of having a fruit farm, coffee shop and a ruined abbey all within a short walking distance of the site. There are so many things you can do nearby you would never get bored. The Pheasant pub just two miles away is definitely worth a visit and this is also convenient for the local Spar shop and village store next door. The pub food home made was extremely good value and the staff v friendly and welcoming.

As for the camp site we found the portaloos quite smelly and dirty, there's was no soap to wash your hands. The dishwashing area is a tent which had no lights which is tricky when dark and also worth noting extremely slippery. There is one shower which again v basic but I did use without a queue.

If the owners could improve the basic facilities then as a camper I think it likely we would stay longer. Having said that it's peaceful, we enjoyed the fire pit and its relaxed without any noisy or troublesome campers.

It's great but could be marvelous with a little bit of investment. If you camp here think of it like a farmers field (neatly cut) with portaloos and you won't be disappointed. The field is big and there was plenty of space for everyone - it's back to basics so no white lines nor dedicated pitches which to me is perfect.

 We stayed for one night in a tent while walking the Cotswold Way in July (school holidays). The site is in a great location (Winchcombe an easy drive, lovely to walk down to the Abbey) and has a great shop with lots of farm shop produce (not open too early though). We didn't have time but it would have been great to do pick your own. I had a shower fairly early and there were new queues, impressed that it was free and hot. Toilets were fine too, clean and enough room to do a quick wash. My only complaint would be about the noise, I'm not sure whether this is common but there was music playing and children shouting until midnight, which was a real shame. I'm not sure whether a curfew is normally enforced but it would have been great if someone had come round and checked the noise levels. Other than that, a great site, enough room for each pitch and didn't feel like we were on top of other campers.
