Liked A great site with a genuinely open and spacious feel, run as part of the local rugby club. The large field gives plenty of room to spread out and, if you’re not tied to an electric hook-up, you have the freedom to pick your pitch and enjoy the relaxed, open layout of the site. The electric pitches are a different story — more of a premium spot than a spacious retreat — but that’s the trade-off for having power on tap.

The site is very well organised, with a friendly and welcoming manager who clearly knows what they’re doing. The facilities are excellent and look like they’ve had a recent refresh, so no complaints there.

The location is a winner. Stow-on-the-Wold is a proper Cotswolds gem and a brilliant base for exploring the area. You’re perfectly placed for all the usual Cotswolds delights, plus the now-famous Diddly Squat/Hawkstone/Farmers Dog triangle — ideal if you’d like to do your bit towards funding Clarkson’s next tractor purchase.

Bamford Barn is also within reach and is quite something. A place where white linen appears to be the unofficial uniform and where you can experience the unique thrill of wondering whether you’ve accidentally wandered onto the set of a very expensive lifestyle advert.

Disliked The only real downside is that the electric pitches are a bit of a squeeze. They’re smaller and packed much closer together, so if you need hook-up you’ll be sacrificing some of that lovely open-field feeling.

Stow itself can also suffer from Cotswolds traffic — the sort where you can spend longer queuing behind a Range Rover admiring a thatched cottage than you do actually getting anywhere. But that’s the price of being somewhere everyone else wants to visit too.

From the manager: Hi Paul,

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a detailed review.

It’s great to hear you enjoyed your stay and found the campsite a good base for exploring the Cotswolds! We really appreciate your balanced feedback and your comments about the friendly welcome and organisation of the site.

Thank you also for your feedback regarding the electric pitches. As you say, there’s a trade-off between having electric hook-up and the more open feel of the camping field, but we do appreciate your comments and will keep them in mind as we continue to develop the site.

We hope to welcome you back again soon.

Kind regards,

Liked Views from field

Disliked We were told to pitch where we liked. As it was extremely hot we decided to park near some trees at the side of the Rugby pitch, I popped to the club house and checked that this was ok and was told yes. Then later on the site Manager came and told us the chairman was not happy for us to pitch there as the ladies team were going to use the pitch that evening. Nobody used the pitch in the 4 nights we were there so couldn't see what the problem was!!! Not near to any public transport
