What customers say
Great spacious, peaceful site near Abingdon/Oxford. Kids love the safe play areas. Facilities generally clean, but showers could be better. Fire pits & sunflower field a hit. Many keen to return.

Great for first timers like us!
Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked Beautiful views ~ we parked up on the far side so our tent had views of the sunset. The lovely walk that we could do with the dog was great and a fun adventure. It was a simple check in. The kind and helpful staff sorted out a querie and allowed us to add an extra car. Loved the play area which my son took full advantage of whilst I enjoyed the benches around so I could watch him from a little further away,
Disliked Toilets not great by Sunday morning (not the campsites fault) and slightly confusing as to where to pitch for a first timer (again, not the campsites fault more mine but as poles had fallen down the instruction of parking between poles was difficult to follow). The ‘road’ round the campsite could have been made clearer. No hay bales to play on sadly.

Popular chilled site but really let down by gross toilets.
Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked Very generous pitches
Dog friendly
Large play/sports area
Hand washing facilities
Logs and fire pits well organised
Woodland walks and sunset views over Abingdon
Close to paddle boarding launch spots
Chilled but family focused vibe
Disliked Toilets - 4 portaloos for 50 family pitches. Knew on arrival (Saturday) that by checkout (Sunday) they would be absolutely disgusting and they were. Put me off the site. Either need 3 times as many portaloos (and/or daily clean out) or for goodness sake get some composting toilets made and just lock them up off season.

Great except for toilets
Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked Nice general feel, all families, nice play area in the centre. Large marked pitches. Nice views and woodland setting.
Disliked Toilets in a very bad state in the morning. Porta-Loos are fine for camping at this price point but they need more for a field of this size (and it wasn’t full when we were there). By 9am Sunday morning the loos were unusable

Great pitches Not enough toilets Not enough bins
Unpowered grass motorhome site
Liked Large pitch, could pitch near friends, large area to play
Disliked Only 4 toilets that over 1 night filled up (and were not pleasant sun morning)
Very small bins, loved the recycling options but no way big enough for the number of pitches

A really lovely campsite if you are camping with kids.
Unpowered grass motorhome site
Liked - Lovely picturesque site with woods behind.
- Generous pitches. Can share with friends.
- Fire pits a bargain and really sturdy.
- Great for kids. The huge area in the middle has a few things for kids to play on and so much space for games. There were loads of kids there and they all made friends.
- lovely walks nearby (about 10 mins walk on busy road and then you're riverside)
- Food deliveries come to site. Ordered 14 pizzas for our big group and was with us within the hour.
Disliked - Loads of kids. If we went without kids in our own group, we would had found all the playing space a bit much. Everyone that likes to sleep in past 7am should take ear plugs.
- Needed one more portaloo. There were four, which I originally thought would be plenty for the number of people, but they had filled up after just two days and had got a little grim.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked We had a fantastic stay at High Lodge Farm. The hot showers were great and the toilet block a good improvement from last time we stayed. Our children loved the activities in the centre and it it lovely that we can see the play area from our tent. Thanks for a great stay- we will be back!

From the manager: Thank you so much, the showers are a lovely experience! We'd love to have you back next year.
