  • Cosy family-run farm site three miles from the edge of the Cotswolds
  • Cotswold Wildlife Park five minutes’ drive; Oxford 40 minutes
  • On-site shop selling fresh produce; firepit provided for each pitch
Cocoon down for a rather cosy stay at West End Farm Camping, three miles from the edge of the Cotswolds National Landscape. Pitches at this small and intimate family-run site are in a grassy plot surrounded by fields grazed by animals or left to grow for hay. West End Farm is just outside Shilton and a five-minute drive from the town of Burford and the Cotswold Wildlife Park & Gardens, meaning that you’ll also be well connected to several local attractions. This is a rural location, so the views come in strong – the site looks over the Cotswold hills and the Ridgeway National Trail. Handily, walking and cycling paths are not far away either, and there are lots of routes leading into pretty Cotswold villages and towns. From here though, you’ll be particularly primed to see Burford’s medieval bridge, church and antiques shops, or to potter into Shilton village (10 minutes’ walk) to relax by its ford or to visit its friendly pub. The site has a small shop stocked with meats such as pork and beef, plus eggs, bread and locally produced jams and honey, and each pitch has its own firepit to keep you warm on alfresco evenings (or even cook your dinner if you like). Other facilities on site include clean compost toilets and hot-water showers.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Beautiful, quiet campsite with basic but clean facilities and large, well marked pitches. I stayed here with my 6 year old daughter for a night and we both had a lovely time. The owners are very friendly and welcoming and the attached farm shop is great. We bought some delicious burgers and sausages for our BBQ. Highly recommended!

Disliked Not a criticism of the campsite in any way but bear in mind there’s not much shade around the site at all, so plan appropriately!

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thanks for review Glad you enjoyed the shop. The hot temperatures have certainly made things difficult. Only shade on one side. We never had to worry about how much shade we had before. Glad you enjoyed your stay

Would definitely go back!

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Loved how accommodating and helpful staff were. Loved the very ‘back to nature’ environment. It’s a real working farm and it doesn’t get much more rustic. We saw countless species of birds. We said hello to the cows. Great for star gazing too, the big open clear skies revealed ‘the bear’ constellation and other planets, The pitches were very spacious and immaculate. The fire pit on site was a great focal point. Plane spotting by day was also very rewarding with frequent activity at Nearly Brize Norton providing further entertainment.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thanks for your kind feedback.. Glad you managed to enjoy a lot of different things,

me and my partner really enjoyed our stay here especially the animals

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked The pitches were very spacious, staff were extremely welcoming and friendly.

Great atmosphere on site with a pop up bar and burger van on the saturday. The animals on the farm are great to see and used to people it seems.

Disliked Facilities were minimal but it is a farm and it is camping so can't complain. No issues.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your kind review much appreciated. Glad you were here for our pop up bar which happens about 3 times a year

Lovely stay, great location to visit surrounding Cotswolds villages.

Local attractions

Giraffes, lions and primates are just some of the residents at Cotswold Wildlife Park & Gardens (five minutes’ drive), where a lively programme of events includes feeding sessions, animal encounters and talks. When the kids are all animal-ed out, take them to the park’s Skymaze adventure playground, with treehouses and jungle bridges. On the upper fringes of the North Wessex Downs National Landscape is the Uffington White Horse (40 minutes), an equine figure carved into the side of a chalky hill in the Bronze Age. Other prehistoric remains in the area include the Iron Age Uffingdon Castle hillfort and several Neolithic burial mounds. Besides its famed universities, Oxford (40 minutes) also has the world-class Ashmolean Museum, which displays collections of western and eastern art, plus antiquities and musical instruments. Take a tour of the Bodleian Library, or book yourself on a relaxing cruise on the River Thames.
