  • Family site on an organic farm 10 minutes’ drive from Cirencester
  • Chedworth Roman Villa 25 minutes’ drive; Cotswold Farm Park 35 minutes
  • Off-grid; well-stocked licensed shop and café; ebike hire
Once you arrive at Abbey Home Farm, 10 minutes’ drive from Cirencester, there’s absolutely no need to move off the site for the duration of your Gloucestershire stay. Why would you ever leave this 1,600-acre farm? Let’s start with the stunning views over Cotswolds fields, and move on to the organic farm shop packed with home-grown fruit and veg. It also sells dairy produce and meat from the farm cows for barbecues (bring your own from home), and – even better – it’s licensed too. There’s also a popular café that's just the spot for coffee to kick-start the day, plus homemade cakes and veggie lunches. All of this is within a 10- to 15-minute gentle stroll of the remotest holiday spots within the farm's woodlands and fields. The farm site is off-grid, with simple facilities including drinking water straight from a farm borehole, washing-up sinks, gas showers and compost loos tucked into the woods. And to top that, everything is crafted from reclaimed or recycled materials. There are wheelbarrows to roll gear in should you need it, as the pitches are spread all over the farm. Just one thing to remember: this site is not party central, so no noise after 10pm please.

Mark D.

Green Field non-electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Nice Camp site with great views, nice walk through the woods, great showers.

Disliked I have used saw dust toilets before and they have been clean and smelling of saw dust, these toilets were disgusting, the smell was overpowering which in turn attracted the flies.

i arrived in my van and the plot where vehicles go was in between large hedge rows, which meant no views of the surrounding area, there is a large field where tents go, which had great views, no reason why vehicles could not use it as well. Very disappointed.

No waste disposal, you have to take your rubbish away with you, also, no where to empty your Elson tank, again this has to be taken away

Fabian S.

Sweet Hill yurt (no electricity, private bathroom amenities)

Liked The farm, the shop, the yurt, the set up, the middle of the nature feeling - everything felt really nice.
The passion, but above all the friendliness of Maya and Darren made us feel special.
We explored Cottswold by bike from the farm: a really good starting point!

The yurt, the kitchen, the toilet and shower with a view… back to nature but on a comfortable way!

Green Field non-electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked The ruralness and being behind a locked gate to the field. Stunning views of rolling fields. Campsite was not crammed.

Disliked Personal preference toilet facilities not to my liking. Found them quite smelly, appreciate they are compost toilets and it’s a very green site.

Green Field non-electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked It was my girlfriend's first time camping so I wanted to take her somewhere special. She found the whole experience peaceful, relaxing and quaint. She loved the views over the fields, the orchids and farm shop!

The staff and fellow campers were extremely friendly.

The whole site is very well laid out with the farm shop a short walk through the forest.

We will be back with friends!

Green Field non-electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Quiet campsite. Wheelbarrows to borrow if camping. Yes, you can just about hear the road but it's not a problem. There is a private airfield nearby, but we only heard one noisy plane and we were still in bed, so it didn't bother us.
Short woodland walk to organic cafe and lovely, well stocked shop. Friendly staff. Not the cheapest, but great to see so many vegan options.
Walk near campsite

Disliked Not sure there was actually hot water on site.
Steps up to compost loos ( we understand why). No toilet paper in loos and no scoop for sawdust.
Disabled loo but locked and the ramp looked much too steep for purpose

Local attractions

Keen to explore the area on two wheels? Rent a bicycle from Cotswold eBikes on site, and set off down quiet rural roads to pretty villages built of mellow stone in the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (20 minutes’ ride). If you’ve got kids on board, make for the lakeside beach and floating inflatables at Cotswold Country Park and Beach (40 minutes), or let them burn off more energy on paddleboards and kayaks at Lake 32 Outdoor Centre (35 minutes). When only cuddling animals will do, it’s time to head to Cotswold Farm Park (35 minutes’ drive), to bottle-feed lambs, baby goats and piglets, see rare-breed farm animals and take tractor rides. In search of a bit of Cotswolds history? You’ll find it among the fourth-century AD Roman ruins at Chedworth Roman Villa (25 minutes’ drive), where you can admire ornate floor mosaics and the Roman version of central heating. If your interest is piqued, you can see more local Roman finds at the Corinium Museum (10 minutes), which has fine displays of sculpture, mosaics and jewellery.
