  • Well-kept adults-only site 10 minutes’ drive from Banbury, Oxfordshire
  • Silverstone Circuit 20 minutes’ drive; Blenheim Palace 40 minutes
  • Dog-friendly pitches with pubs and cafés 20 minutes’ walk away
If you’re looking for a peaceful and adults-only Oxfordshire escape, the tourer site at Highlands (10 minutes’ drive from Banbury) fits the bill very well. It’s easy to get to, being five minutes’ drive from junction 11 on the M40, and has just a handful of pitches with electric hook-ups in a well-maintained field sheltered by mature trees. Any doggy companions are welcome on site, and you can all set out for long meanders along the pretty Oxford Canal (20 minutes’ walk). If you’d like to be a bit more active, try a round of golf, playing tennis or kayaking on the River Cherwell (all five minutes’ drive). For a change of scenery, there are several pubs and cafés in riverside Cropredy (20 minutes’ walk). Spotless facilities on site include toilets and a shower, a washing-up area, fresh water supply and Elsan point.
