  • Family-run Oxfordshire site at a smallholding with art studios
  • Didcot and Wantage 10 minutes' drive; half an hour to Oxford
  • On the edge of the North Wessex Downs, with great walks nearby
We are a family run three acre smallholding hosting an Arts Studio running pottery classes and workshops. We have a level, grass covered paddock that is ideal for camping. It is served by a purpose-built toilet block with two toilets, one shower, a wash-room and a kitchenette. We are 3.5 miles from the Ridgeway - an ancient track that, to the West goes past the White Horse at Uffington and to the East links up with the Thames Path near Goring. The Ickneild Way - like the Ridgeway an ancient long distance track - has recently been resurfaced between East Hendred and Lockinge to provide an excellent cycle path from East Hendred to Wantage. Wantage is an historic market town and the birthplace of King Alfred the Great. It is the nearest town for a good selection of shops, supermarkets and a weekly open air market in the town square. Reachable by car and bicycle (and in some cases by foot) are some excellent places to eat and drink. Steventon is easily achieved by foot or bike, while the Hendreds, Ardington and Letcombe Regis are further afield.

Non-electric grass motorhome pitch

Liked Quiet campsite, well kept & clean with a lovely honesty shop including fresh eggs. Thank you!

Disliked Perhaps a little too closed to the road but it was perfect location for us to stop on the way to central London.

Did not use WiFi so cannot comment on it.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Washing up facilities, nice toilets/shower/washroom and honesty shop selling the essentials (including teas and coffees) makes it a relaxed camping experience. Plenty of space for each pitch and the size of the site means you never too far from the toilets. My daughter loved the chickens!

We wished we'd booked a longer stay.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Lovely welcome. Beautiful facilities, perfectly clean. Amazing shop, with local bakery cakes, their own eggs, crisps, excellent coffee, so welcome as we were arriving on foot. Flat and level ground, easy pitching. Trees around the site, it's sheltered and some shade.

Disliked Noise from the road, but it didn't bother us.
