  • Peaceful no-frills pop-up campsite on a small family-run farm
  • Witney and Woodstock within a quarter of an hour's drive
  • A mile from two pubs and restaurants; stabling available
Far from busy roads and smoggy city streets, Fishill Farm is a peaceful place to pitch up in the Oxfordshire countryside, roughly a mile to the north of the village of North Leigh. With a no-frills approach to camping, this pop-up site is set on a family-run farm, so you can look forward to spotting farm animals, wildlife and exploring footpaths in the nearby Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. With flat and level pitches set in a mown grass field, amenities here include rubbish bins, portable toilet facilities and running water. Feel free to bring your horse or pony too (extra fees apply), as this site is well-placed for cantering along nearby bridleways. Unfortunately, Fishill Farm is unable to accept dogs, however. While Barbecues are allowed at Fishill Farm, it's easy to get down into the village centre for an evening out, where there are two pubs and two restaurants for a range of cuisines and budgets. Witney (10 minutes) is the nearest market town and is home to supermarkets, larger shops, cafés and other amenities.

Primitive grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: What a fantastic no frills campsite. We only stayed for the one night but would have no hesitation in staying again and for longer. If you like it basic then this is for you. There's a tap providing clean running water and a portaloo but apart from that there's nothing but open space and peace & quiet. Absolute bliss and really refreshing to find a campsite that caters for those that prefer the basics. Had a great chat with owners who were very friendly and welcoming and a good laugh.

Disliked: Nothing.

From the manager: Thank you for your lovely comment you left. It was lovely to meet you and your family, and we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us. We hope to see you again one day.

Would use it again for short stay

Primitive grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: August bank hol weekend = slim pickings!

Disliked: At just after 8am on a bank hol Sunday the farmer thought it appropriate to fire up his JCB digger to clear some land adjacent to the pitches. An excellent way to vacate your land of visitors.

From the manager: We are sorry you were woken up, unfortunately the land that the machine was on is not part of our land so was nothing to do with us. Pitchup do clear say we are literally a field offering just a toilet and a tap and we do offer our campers ( when they arrive) a field where children can play and we put up some goal posts for them. We are sorry again if you were looking for more facilities but we don’t offer them.

Recommended, just bear in mind there are no showers
