What customers say

Quirky, adult-only site on Oxford Canal. Relaxed vibes, nice views, friendly staff. Love the shop, bar, fire pits & pigs! Great for canal walks. BUT, basic "festival-style" loos & no showers are a big con for many. Some mention road noise & bumpy sites. Facilities vary by season.

Liked The view, the laid back vibe, nice greeting from the staff, lovely walk along the canal to the pub. You should expect simple facilities. The shop looked nice but we didn't need anything this time. The bar area and fire pit was a lovely touch.

Disliked The festival style loos were a bit pungent

Clean and tidy
People running the site were helpful and pleasant.
The small shop is a nice touch
Was very little traffic noise

Disliked Not a "dislike" more a suggestion : a simple kayak or a paddleboard launch platform near water level would be nice.

Liked This is a quiet, adult only site with views of the Oxford countryside. Located on the banks of the Oxford canal, there is a pub about 30 minutes walk down the tow path, which the gentleman on reception kindly informed us about on arrival. The site has a small local shop and basic toilet facilities.

Unpowered grass caravan site

Liked Fab hostess and shop. Great little campsite and dog field which was a nice touch
Hadn't expected loos or washing up facilities so nice there were both. Although the loos are festival ones. I didn't mind though

Disliked Road and train noise would I think put me off for longer than a night

Coren M.

Unpowered grass tent site (medium)

Liked We lived the site it was perfect for a night away with friends. We made use of the fire pits and river which had a pub a short distance away. Small shop on site and toilets were cleaned regularly.

Disliked The bars and cafe were not open and the website did say there would be no pigs this season.

Take everything you need as I doubt it will be sold in the shop

Liked The birds in the Area.

Disliked The shop is not a shop. It doesn't sell any of the essentials like, Milk unless frozen and out of date, bread, butter, eggs even though there is a sign outside the shop saying it does.
The bar is also the shop. It's no more than an off-licence with seating outside. This is a real shame as the surroundings were lovely.

I would stay again, despite the toilets.

Jo D.

Unpowered grass caravan site

Liked Lovely setting, quirky features, friendly staff, the atmosphere was great with everyone on the site.
Great food, enjoyed a meal on arrival & a great breakfast.
Good little farm shop on site.

Disliked Only 2 toilets open, the rest were padlocked as it was end of season & they were full, one of the toilets had no door & the other didn’t have toilet paper & no flush, I don’t mind festival toilets but if they’re available please keep them serviced.

Local attractions

The Oxford Canal is one of the oldest mainline canals in England and has walkies all along its 77-mile towpath, passing some of the most scenic spots and villages in Oxfordshire, Northamptonshire and Warwickshire. It’s mostly easy hoofing along the whole route with few hills: carve a slice into a day trip or afternoon amble. Pack a picnic (of bacon sarnies) and go to Banbury four miles away to tackle the modernised towpath walk from Banbury to Cropredy via the newly added glass bridge, waterworks gallery and museum spanning the canal along the way. A day at dramatic Stratford-upon-Avon should be on the cards in any holiday too.
