  • Quiet secluded site close to Bicester
  • The closest site to Bicester Heritage (two miles)
  • Fishing lakes on site
What an excellent Oxfordshire site this is for anglers. And walkers. And quiet English countryside appreciators. For friendly and well-maintained Glebe Leisure Park is in a cracking countryside location on the edges of Buckinghamshire and Northamptonshire as well as Oxfordshire and has two fishing lakes on site as well as lots of trails all around. Dogs – and their owners – like this place too, as there are long walks and gravelled pathways with dog waste bins set at handy locations, and it's mighty like too that cyclists will like the gentle and short pedal along to local town Bicester... Any amenities you might need are sorted here, such as a loo and shower block with info room about the surrounding area, a toilet and shower facilities for disabled guests, a chemical disposal point, drinking water outlets and a car park.

Camping pod (family, six person)

Liked Lovely showers, toilets, washing up facility and staff

Disliked The pod was not adequate for 6 people - we just about squeezed 3 double airbeds in but had to leave our clothing or anything else that we had brought in the car. When someone needed the to leave the pod, it meant standing on the other beds to get out. I’m not sure if we were given a 4-person pod by mistake, but I would not recommend for 6 people.

Electric grass pitch

Liked My partner and I loved how small and quiet the area was, especially considering we stayed here for a couple of nights for a car show at Silverstone, so we needed to be up and out early on the show day. The lady we spoke to at the front desk to check in was polite and very welcoming which helped us as this was our first time staying in the area so we were a little anxious.

Disliked These things I know glebe leisure cannot control, however the ground was very hard and dry following all the hot weather there has been lately so it made it that little bit more awkward trying to put our tent up because we struggled finding sweet spots for each tent peg. The other one was the lack of signal in the area. We could have connected to the WiFi, however we were already spending a lot of money on the weekend we stayed and from what I could find, there wasn't very clear instructions on how to connect to the wifi so we decided not to, for this time at least.

Not using it again it was a total waste of my hard earned money of £33

Electric grass pitch

Liked Wonderful site with a friendly welcome.
Facilities were lovely and clean and the site was peaceful and family and dog friendly.
The lakes and little forest walk were perfect for walking the dog and seeing some great wildlife such as the resident swan, a heron, and a buzzard.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked This was our first visit but will not be out last.
We were greeted with a warm welcome even though we arrived towards the end of the check in window, everything was explained well.
Our pitch was well positioned and spacious.
The facilities were clean and each area had its own toilets, showers and bins. The showers had plenty of hot water and were a good size.
My husband and son particularly enjoyed the fishing, the lakes were very picturesque.
Overall we were very happy and will return.

Disliked Nothing.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Park was lovely and we loved our pitch set out of the way. Facilies were small but clean and perfect for the site size

Disliked Unfortunately neighbours ruined our stay. Not much the site could have done about that I don't think but as a young family being pitched next to a large group of "lads" who continuously smoked cannabis through the entire weekend really put a damper on our trip. Having to explain to them what the funny smell was etc.

Local attractions

Plenty of shops, restaurants, pubs and cafés are in Glebe Leisure's local town of Bicester within a couple of miles, and designer clothes and accessories in the outlet shopping centre Bicester Village. Glebe is the closest site to Bicester Heritage, the first park in the UK for the tender loving restoration care of classic and vintage cars, motorbikes and planes, all on over 345 acres of an old RAF bomber station. The centre's been described as 'a historic motoring fan's idea of heaven' so do speed along there if old engines make your motor hum. Twelve miles from the site is simply smashing Blenheim Palace, given to the first Duke of Marlborough by Charlie 2 and handed down through the Churchill family to reach one Winston some decades back. You really should have a trip... Also within 12 miles are another few British institutions: the dizzying array of arty treasures at the National Trust's Waddesdon Manor; Broughton Castle at Banbury, and days out spectating fast types at Silverstone Circuit.
