  • Well-kept CAMC members-only campsite 15 minutes’ drive from Daventry
  • Warwick Castle 35 minutes’ drive and Stratford-upon-Avon 45 minutes
  • Grass pitches with countryside views; two pubs in 15 minutes’ walk
Tucked in-between the rural villages of Lower and Upper Boddington in Northamptonshire, Coleman’s Hill Certificated Location is a tiny Caravan and Motorhome Club members-only campsite with easy access off a hard-standing track for touring caravans and motorhomes. Mature trees surround the (slightly sloping) grass pitches, which sit on the brow of a hill with spectacular views over fields and valleys. Sheep graze in the neighbouring paddocks and bridleway rambles direct from the camping meadow lead you to Boddington Reservoir (half an hour’s walk) – great for exercising the family and any accompanying canines. From this quiet haven 15 minutes’ drive from Daventry, you can strike out on day trips to Warwick Castle (35 minutes) and book Shakespeare plays at Stratford-upon-Avon (45 minutes); alternatively stay closer to base camp and venture no further than the two local pubs within 15 minutes’ walk. If you’re sticking with self-catering, there’s a convenience store at Byfield, five minutes’ drive away, for picking up bits for your barbecue. Facilities-wise, each spacious pitch is serviced with water and a grey water disposal point; there is a shared chemical toilet disposal point and a general waste bin, as well as a washing-up sink, showers and an outside bath in a wooden cabin at the edge of the field.

Local attractions

There’s lots of outdoor activity to be had in the local area: go fishing at Stockton Reservoir (20 minutes’ drive), or hire dinghies from Banbury Sailing Club (five minutes) to get out onto Boddington Reservoir. If you’re looking for a dog-friendly walk, consider Badby Woods (15 minutes), especially pretty when the bluebells are out in spring. Kids with you? Jump in the car and head for Warwick Castle (35 minutes), where you can mash-up history and family fun watching raptor displays, getting lost in the Horrible Histories Maze and watching jousting competitions. Take them to see Shakespeare’s Birthplace and his tomb at Holy Trinity Church in Stratford-upon-Avon (45 minutes), or book family-friendly story-telling sessions at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre. Too heavy on the culture? Petrol-heads can book tickets for classic car rallies and track days at Silverstone Circuit (35 minutes), or feast their eyes on hundreds of vintage models at the British Motor Museum (half an hour). Junior motor-racing fans might like to get some practice in by whizzing around the circuit at Shenington Kart Racing Club (35 minutes).
