  • Adults-only rural Oxfordshire site five minutes' drive from Deddington
  • Blenheim Palace 15 minutes' drive; half an hour to Oxford
  • Farm walks and firepits available; dogs and horses welcome
No children, but plenty of wildlife – and a field of horses as your nearest neighbours… It’s all a very relaxed and peaceful experience at adults-only Francis Fields, in rural Oxfordshire about five minutes’ drive from the market town of Deddington. This is a lovely place to relax and unwind, perhaps taking a stroll around the farm to meet the horses and ponies (ask on site if you’d like a proper introduction), finding a spot for a picnic or just chilling out in a deckchair with a drink of your choice and soaking up the uninterrupted views of the surrounding countryside. It’s not just the human guests that appreciate this location – other visitors often include foxes, badgers, deer, owls and birds of prey, all of which you might catch sight of if you tread carefully or sit quietly enough. As an adults-only site children are not allowed to stay here, but travelling horses and dogs are welcome. The local pub, 10 minutes’ walk away, is also a dog-friendly place – and with tasty food and a good range of beers into the bargain. More shops and pubs are up in Deddington, along with a monthly farmers’ market. Back on site, you’ll be staying on a gently sloping field where pitches are mown into the wild grass. Solar lighting illuminates each pitch, the access track and the toilet and shower areas, and there are firepits to hire for a nice warm alfresco evening.

What customers say

This adult-only park offers plenty of room, great views, and heaps of peace and quiet. Toilets and showers get top marks for being spotless. Fenced dog-friendly spots are a winner. A local pub's just a short stroll away. A few blokes mentioned the walk to amenities and the odd shower temp hiccup, but the managers have sorted some of that.

Fenced unpowered grass and earth tent or trailer tent site

Liked Fantastic campsite! This was our first time camping and Francis Fields have really set the bar. We stayed in the enclosed dog pitch which was perfect for our two small dogs as it gave them an opportunity to roam without us having to worry - the whole pitch is chicken wired so no chance for those escape artists. There is also a ‘farm walk’ trail which we used to walk them and watch the sunset over the fields each evening - beautiful. On our pitch was also a large picnic table to use for our meals which was a nice added touch. As for the facilities, we simply cannot fault them. Toilets were impeccably clean, the showers were lovely and hot, great station for washing up and they even have an information hut with a fridge freezer and plug sockets. WiFi also worked well all the way at the back of the campsite, which is where we were staying. They have everything you need! We really wish we had booked for longer - we can’t wait to stay again!

Disliked Absolutely nothing!

 Callie M. 1 review

Fenced unpowered grass and earth tent or trailer tent site

Liked The secure field was great for our dogs and it was nice to jsut let them be instead of worrying about keeping them on a lead.

The campsite was nice and quiet, no kids is a bonus!

We were lucky to be there during a quieter wee also, and found it lovely.

The local pub is quaint and the surrounding area had lots of nice walks and pubs to visit.

Disliked 2 showers and 2 toilets was fine for the week we stayed, but I expect a fully booked site could mean quite a bit of a queue!

Hawthorn Field unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site (no pets)

Liked What a little gem 💎
We had a lovely stay here at the end of August. Great hot showers, very clean toilets and washing up area. Loved that the areas to pitch were mowed, so no one camped too close to you.
Lovely to see the horses all around. One unique aspect which is rare at a camp site was the WiFi. An added convenience.
Lots to do in the area. Went and explored the Cotswolds and Oxford itself. Would definitely stay again.

Hawthorn Field unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site (no pets)

Liked Location. Pitch’s are well spread out and the individual space for each is great. They have a picnic bench included for each guest as well which was a bonus. This is a very well maintained, rural campsite. Facilities are one of the cleanest and best we have been to. A note that others have mentioned but only 2 toilets and 2 showers, if the site was full I think this could mean longer wait times.
Host communication was also great.

Local attractions

Staying at Francis Fields, you’ll be just on the edge of the Cotswolds National Landscape, putting you within easy reach of lots of gorgeous walking and cycling routes (and a good number of country pubs to stop at…) Some favourite options nearby include walks around the Rollright Stones, or a grander tour of Broughton Castle (both 20 minutes’ drive). Even grander are the lavish stately home and landscaped gardens (designed by Capability Brown, no less) at Blenheim Palace (15 minutes). If your current togs aren’t up to scratch for such things, hit the outlet stores at Bicester Village (20 minutes). The Cotswolds Distillery (25 minutes) is another good place to shop, with a café and distillery tours on offer too. Other days out nearby might take you into Oxford (half an hour) to tour the colleges and museums or try your hand at the art of punting, or to the high-speed action at the Silverstone circuit (35 minutes).
