  • Cosy family-run farm site three miles from the edge of the Cotswolds
  • Cotswold Wildlife Park five minutes’ drive; Oxford 40 minutes
  • On-site shop selling fresh produce including local honey; firepits
Cocoon down for a rather cosy stay at West End Farm Camping, three miles from the edge of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Pitches at this small family-run site are in a grassy plot surrounded by fields grazed by animals or left to grow for hay. West End Farm is a five-minute drive from the town of Burford and the Cotswold Wildlife Park & Gardens, meaning that you’ll also be well connected to several local attractions. This is a rural location, so the views come in strong – the site looks over the Cotswold hills and the Ridgeway National Trail. Handily, walking and cycling paths are not far away either, and there are lots of routes leading into pretty Cotswold villages and towns. From here though, you’ll be particularly primed to see Burford’s medieval bridge, church and antiques shops, or to potter into Shilton village (10 minutes’ walk) to relax by its ford or to visit its friendly pub. The site has a small shop stocked with meats such as pork and beef, plus eggs, bread and locally produced jams and honey, and there are firepits at each roomy pitch where you can cook your dinner. Other facilities on site include hot-water showers.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked The large pitches and site as a whole, especially seeing the Cows and Bull going to and fro!
Nice to have Bins on the pitch too.
Celia and Tim are lovely and welcoming and it was good to have a text from Celia the morning of my arrival.
I will be visiting again!

Disliked Not keen on Compost Toilets but i appreciate why they are used.

From my perspective it would be good to have a Chemical Toilet Disposal Point as i need a Toilet in my Tent.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Received a warm welcome from Celia, the site is small and well located next to a cow field. Pitch sizes are generous and well laid out with a fire pit and two bins at each pitch. The compost toilets and showers are clean and well maintained. Lovely rural location with a village pub a short walk away.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Very family friendly site with lovely big pitches. Toys available for the little one's to play and a farm shop available on site. The cotswold wildlife park is 5 minutes down the road. One of the best camping shower's I've had! Bins and fire pit provided on each pitch was a nice touch. Arrived to a friendly greeting. The site and facilities are basic but nice and clean. The kids loved that we had to drive through the cow shed to the field! We would definitely recommemd to family and friends and stay on site again if the issue with the toilet mentioned below were resolved.

Disliked Step into toilets needs a rethink, pallet step not secure enough and I sprained my ankle. One of the toilets isn't very private with a large gap around the door and a hole at the front meaning people can see in.

Site is meant to be quiet after 10pm, unfortunately spoilt by inconsiderate guests arriving after 11pm to pitch up. With engines running and lights on shouting to each other at top voice disturbing multiple families with young children.

Multiple tent pegs had been left in the pitch when we arrived, luckily we checked before putting the tent up (maybe something that should be checked between guests?).

From the manager: Thank you for your comments. We are sorry you were disturbed by another camper we will try to reiterate to all campers about being quiet after 10pm especially if they are going out in their vehicle. We will look into what can be done about the toilet but it does need to be on a step because of the way the toilet is.

Great value for simple camping. I would thoroughly recommend.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked We were welcome to the campsite by the owner and they were very helpful. Explained someone had called ahead with an early start and how best to avoid which is above and beyond.
Pitches were a great size and well defined with long grass perimeters.
Campsite was completely level so great for camper vans and tents.

Disliked The toilet facilities and showers were basic with not traditional plumbing, but appreciated this is to allow for a more environmentally friendly facility.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your comments. It is advertised that the toilets are compost toilets but sorry that it was a shock for you.

Definitely booking again

Liked Welcome Text on the morning and warm welcome upon arrival by Celia.

Pitch size was perfect as lots of space and not over crowded.

Facilities functional but basic.

Space to play and see farm animals.

Amazing value for money.

Disliked 5am wake up call from the crows in the tre, but that's nature for you.

Local attractions

Giraffes, lions and primates are just some of the residents at Cotswold Wildlife Park & Gardens (five minutes’ drive), where a lively programme of events includes feeding sessions, animal encounters and talks. When the kids are all animal-ed out, take them to the park’s Skymaze adventure playground, with treehouses and jungle bridges. On the upper fringes of the North Wessex Downs National Landscape is the Uffington White Horse (40 minutes), an equine figure carved into the side of a chalky hill in the Bronze Age. Other prehistoric remains in the area include the Iron Age Uffingdon Castle hillfort and several Neolithic burial mounds. Besides its famed universities, Oxford (40 minutes) also has the world-class Ashmolean Museum, which displays collections of western and eastern art, plus antiquities and musical instruments. Take a tour of the Bodleian Library, or book yourself on a relaxing cruise on the River Thames.
