Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Exactly as advertised. Kids enjoyed romping on the field when it was sunny. When it was rainy there are plenty of things to do nearby.
Disliked: Logs could have been cheaper.

From the manager: Thanks for your lovely review Paul, we are so glad you enjoyed your stay. We do note your comment about the wood - we do try to keep all of our prices as low as possible, and hope this was reflected in the items in the honesty shop. The price of wood is at standard market rate for the quantity (a large sack) plus the kindling and fire lighters. Of course if we are able to reduce the price at any time due to lower costs to us we will do this. We hope to welcome you again James and Fi

Liked: Facilities nice and straightforward. Compost toilet nicer than some "regular" toilets I've come across. Nice touches and decoration. Simple level field. Short walks to good pubs and Thames path, great for the dog. Hosts check that you're ok but don't pester and are accomodating. Small honesty shop with farm supplies and fire making kit. Would recommend. Thanks for having me and the dog! Great value at £15.

Liked: Beautiful, quiet & simple with big pitches & fires - just how we like it. Fi & James are lovely and there are lots of lovely little touches that make this site different - flowers in the (spotlessly clean) compost loo, and a lovely 'trust' shop on the barn. Great pub 5 mins walk and easy access to the river. We loved it. Many thanks Chris & Sara

Non-electric grass campervan pitch
Liked: Dad and Lad with a campervan, so we had all we needed. The minimal facilities were plenty sufficient for us. Nice to have a proper campfire on the ground too, instead of messing about with firebowls. Made it feel a bit more wild. Charming welcome from the farmer, too, checking all was well.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: If you want to stay in a quiet green meadow where you can lie down and watch the clouds and hear only the wind in the trees, then this is the perfect place. No fussy check-ins, very few other visitors - it felt like a secret oasis, a little hidden nook tucked away between the Cotswold hedges. We were using this as a base for visiting the local area, which is very busy during August, so this was a wonderful retreat at the end of the day.
Disliked: Obviously, some sort of shower would be good in the future, or even private washing facilities. Maybe a cubicle with a tap to fit with the rustic feel?

From the manager: Thanks so much for taking the time to leave us such a lovely review Helen - we are really pleased you enjoyed your stay. This was our first year of opening, but shower/washing facilities are absolutely on our radar! I love the idea of a washing cubicle as an alternative/addition to showers - what a great idea. Watch this space! With thanks James & Fi
