Ridgeway View Campsite

Positiv Beautiful site, manager introduced himself, you can report noise etc by text! Loved the basic facilities and the scenery. Lovely to see children playing in the evening. Easy access to beautiful ridgeway walking.

Negativ This is not on the campsite but some idiot in a fake rust motorhome parked up literally touching our tent! He wasn’t there when we arrived so we didn’t know, but he must have been out for the day and so territorial about the spot that he returned to the exact same spot despite our tent now being there! What a clown! There was so much space! This is a disadvantage of not having marked out spots but luckily there aren’t many idiots like that and it didn’t spoil our stay!

Positiv First impression was fab: peaceful, lovely 360 view, no road nearby. Toilets had hand washing facilities and the showers were private. The site is flat making for easy pitch up. We had a campfire in one of the camps fire pits using our own wood. I spoke with the owner over the phone who was very polite and friendly, also they had a pizza van on site which was very handy due to the location.

Negativ Unfortunately, there was a group of drunk ‘lads’ about 30m away from our pitch, who were awake into the early hours (approx 3am) and being very loud. So I only had a few hours sleep overall and it was very broken. I really wasn’t expecting this as the site was so quiet and peaceful on arrival.
If I had earplugs this would’ve helped, however the preference would be that someone would’ve policed the noise levels and ensured folk were adhering to the ‘lower volumes after 10.30’ rule.
Due to the lack of wind, the noise was carrying well and it sounded like they could’ve been stood right outside our tent! It was very frustrating but I didn’t feel comfortable approaching a group of males in the early hours myself to ask them to be quiet.
Everything else was perfect but being as I didn’t really sleep and the groups noise were putting me on edge, I have to give a 7.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Hi Chloe, I'm sorry about the noise. I did do a walk around just before midnight and all was well but it is impractical for staff to be on site at 3 in the morning.
We do expect everyone to self police and we advertise that it's a quiet site although sadly some people do forget where they are.
We do hope this hasn't put you off coming back in the future!

Positiv Lots of room. Great views

Positiv Pitch where you like, huge flat field, loads of clean portaloos. Didn't use the open air cold showers but they looked fine. Pizza man on a Saturday was a nice touch. Easy access to the ridgeway for walks.

Positiv What’s not to like?

This was our second stay at Ridgeway View. Its tranquil, calming nature drew us back once again. Pitch up, sit back, crack open a beer, and relax at this back-to-basics campsite.

There’s plenty of space for football and frisbee with the children, making it perfect for families.

The portaloos are clean and spacious, and there are cold showers and running water — everything you need to keep things simple and stress-free.

We’ll be back, again and again — without a doubt.

Vom Platzbetreiber: In the words of Apu Nahasapeemapetilon "Thank you, come again!" - We are open until the end of September so try and get a few more visits in before we shut :)

Positiv Very large, spacious and level field. Great views and direct access to footpaths.

Positiv Great location and campsite, I can highly recommend.
From before arrival,checking in and leaving, Ridgeway was easy, informative and relaxed. Facilities are great for a get away from it all , and having the cold showers in the 30°C heat was bliss. I can highly recommend, the campsite is only a few miles walk from Wallingford and easy reach of the Ridgeway path and Thames path

Positiv It was just as advertised. It was well maintained with noticeable attention by staff. I liked the little text messages which updated advice. Excellent value for money.
