  • 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

This family-friendly campground has spacious sites, clean washrooms, and a relaxed vibe. Kids love the playground, bouncy castles, and goats. The on-site shop, bar, and kitchen get good reviews, and there are lovely walks nearby. Some guests mentioned train noise, others found the facilities basic but fine for the cost. Overall, guests appreciate the value and plan to return.

Primitive grass campsite

Liked Good facilities and quite large with plenty of space, fairly level grass pitches and not too crowded in the lower field.

Disliked Although it’s school holidays I’ve never seen so many Ferrell children in one place and the 3 lads riding high powered electric dirt bikes around should have been told to stop by the staff.

6-amp powered grass campsite

Liked Nettes Personal. Das Gelände war schön und für Kinder gab es Hüpfburgen und Tiere zum streicheln.

Disliked Leider kümmert sich niemand um die Nachtruhe, d.h. in den 2 Nächten in denen wir dort geschlafen haben, war es bis 23 Uhr / Mitternacht ziemlich laut. Die Bahn fährt direkt am Campingplatz entlang und fährt auch nachts. Meistens hupt sie noch dazu.

16-amp powered grass campsite

Liked Loved it, great little site, plenty of space for us and our tent & car. Beautiful area to have as a base. The nightsky was so clear! Pubs were both in walking distance (literally 15 minutes along the road, 30 if you go the canal)
Reception guy when we arrived was super friendly and helpful (goes to aston uni) pizza dude (had tattoos) made a most delicious pizza and chips! Sorry im rubbish with names.
Train going past yes it was loud but also amused us greatly because I hadn't read it was near a train track 😆 didnt bother us.
Rabbits, lots of birds including owls and buzzards galore.
We absolutely loved it there and will definitely be back in the future.

Disliked Think you need more showers/toilets and sadly we couldnt but breakfast but apart from that the main and only issue we really had were other peoples children running round screaming and cycling bikes at 11.30pm is not funny when you're just trying to relax.. know its not the sites issue.. but do think the parents should have been spoken too as I know we weren't the only people to moan.

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback. FYI the family was spoken to, many times, and given their last warning. However we were not made aware of their behaviour until till doing our rounds late at night. We’re always available to let us know of antisocial behaviour.

Ok for a few nights

Primitive grass campsite

Liked Nice big field for kids to run around in. Food and car were nice. Large teepees to sit under with food and drink.

Disliked Facilities need an upgrade. Feels like you are brushing your teeth in the toilets, not enough sinks.
We were told they were strict about noise after 9pm but this didn’t happen and the site, though not very busy, was very noisy.
Site said we ‘might’ hear trains. They were constant and beeped their horns every time they went past all night!

Primitive grass campsite

Liked Good for kids with animals and play area. Bar for adults is an added bonus!

Disliked Family shower room was very dirty during our visit and no toilet paper at times.
We expected to be able to purchase breakfast on the morning of departure to save washing up again before we left but when we asked to put in an order we were told ‘oh we are not doing breakfast today’ and the night before we wanted to grab some easy dinner but were told they weren’t cooking the items from the children’s menu.

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).
