  • Family-run dog-friendly farm site in Cropredy village
  • A 20-minute drive to British Motor Museum; 40 mins to Blenheim Palace
  • Wood-fired pizzas on busy weekends; a short walk to pubs and cafés
Fancy a farm stay, but not so keen on the idea of navigating little country lanes? Set off to Oxfordshire and The Old Dairy Farm Caravan and Camping: getting here involves a mere 10-minute detour from the M40 at Banbury. That location makes this a most handy spot for motorway stopovers, but there’s plenty around to please those who choose to stay longer too. However long you stay at this family-run farm, you’ll not want to miss out on meeting the pygmy goats and free-range chickens and peering into the aviary; once the kids have done that, send them off for a proper run about on the large recreational field to tire them out before bedtime. Handy too are the smart and well-maintained facilities, including a toilet block, showers, a washing-up area, water supply and Elsan point. The wood-fired pizza oven gets going on busy weekends (and it’s also available for private hire if you’re having a gathering). Don’t worry if there’s no pizza action while you’re here: it’ll take just a few minutes to walk to Cropredy’s pubs, cafés and shop (or its play park). It’s also possible to walk to the Oxford Canal and River Cherwell for waterside wanders, and a short drive will get you out into the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty for more walks, plus golf courses, fishing lakes and National Trust estates. In the main this is a peaceful site, but it's worth noting that a rail line passes fairly close by so you may hear a bit of noise from the pitches (or even spot trains – much to the delight of young rail enthusiasts).

What customers say

Great family spot with plenty of room, clean loos & a friendly vibe. Animals, playground & bouncy castles a hit. Food/shop handy. A bit of train noise & minor facility tweaks noted, but overall cracking value for a cruisy hols. Many keen to return.

Unpowered grass site

Liked Great facilities, shower and toilets were perfect! Just a quick one night stop for us on the way to somewhere but could easily stay and make use of the bar/breakfast etc. They found us somewhere quiet for our one night, but seemed good vibes and child friendly if you have them 👍 booked last minute and arrived 830pm with no issues and someone around to meet us in the shop

Unpowered grass site

Liked Was a beautiful place, the environment had a relaxed and friendly feel, animals to see, clean facility’s hot showers and running water. Great location near the canal and river and local supermarket nearby if the in house shop doesn’t have what you may need. the hosts were extremely friendly and helpful. Felt extremely safe during my stay. I met with some of the locals who also spoke very highly of the place and adore visiting to see the animals, I Would highly recommend this place for everyone and I will definitely be retuning. A little hidden gem 💎 and great value for money.

Disliked Nothing I disliked absolutely nothing.

Shauna V.

10-amp powered grass site

Liked Staff were friendly, loved the goats and birds. Pitches are a decent size. Love the added additions of bouncy castles and play equipment for the children.

Disliked In Both sets of toilets only one hand soap dispenser actually had soap in, and sanitary bins were full and the cold tap on one basin is broken (bottom of the field). The wooden boat that my son loved could do with a new “wheel” and the reminiscence of a sign taken down which is attached to the boat. Bit disappointing that the cafe wasn’t open, I couldn’t find anywhere that states this when booking originally. Couldn’t seem to get onto the WiFi (said we needed to be closer when putting the password in so gave up)

Liked Good site which was kept clean. Good mix of different amperage for hook up.

Disliked Lots of wasps. Could wasp traps be put around the site?
The trains run through the night and can be noisy.

Liked Location, food available on site, goats and area for kids to play.
Food and drink on site fairly priced and quick. Free Wifi up by reception.

Disliked No set pitches, free for all so not good if you've a motor home and come and go without a wind break or some thing to hold your space. Also all in together no separation between tents and motorhomes/caravans.
I was told electric hook up not available but there were ones free during the stay. Toilets regally blocked and in a state. Men's and women's in through same doors with swing door which doesn't touch ground or ceiling so the urinal smell was over whelming in the ladies.
Wifi doesn't reach much past the top field. They don't monitor who's at the site. They just took my mane and said find a space, didn't make me feel safe especially as no gate on entrance to stop just anyone coming in.

Unpowered grass site

Liked The site was small, a lovely eating/ bar area with good park and bouncy castles. The staff in the shop were really friendly and helpful. Great for kids.

Disliked When we drove on the site felt really full and I struggled to find a spot to park. We stayed for 2 nights, the Sunday evening felt much calmer as less people around.

Local attractions

Coming to the Cotswolds for a bit of fresh air and gentle activity? Set forth for fishing at Clattercote Reservoir, or tee off at Cherwell Edge Golf Course; both are about 10 minutes away by car. Country walking routes are plentiful too, of course, as are fine buildings to mooch around. Blenheim Palace (40 minutes’ drive) is perhaps the best known of all the Oxfordshire stately homes (and with good reason, for ’tis fab) but it’s worth taking a look at some others too, including Farnborough Hall (10 minutes), Sulgrave Manor (20 minutes) and Upton House and Gardens (20 minutes). For a break from the classic Cotswolds activities, head out to meet the big birds of Fir Tree Falconry (15 minutes) or sigh over all the shiny machines at the British Motor Museum (20 minutes). And if you’re in need of a tipple or two to accompany your barbecue back at base, there are some excellent local ones to be acquired at Hook Norton Brewery (25 minutes) and the Cotswolds Distillery (half an hour).
