Countryside setting

  • Peaceful dog-friendly paddock pitches in the Oxfordshire countryside
  • A 20-minute drive from Blenheim Palace and 40 minutes from Oxford
  • Walk 20 minutes to the country pub in Barford St Michael village
Bear down on these simply gorgeous and peaceful paddock pitches in the Oxfordshire countryside. The level grass field at Spring Hill Farm makes pitching up plain sailing. Once you’re all settled in at this pop-up place, seize the day by tracking down the palaces, castles and country houses within driving distance of the site, or just slide into a cosy spot in the country pub in the village of Barford St Michael, 20 minutes’ walk away. It may be peaceful out in the Oxford countryside, but the site still has good access to major routes. If you want to list out a bunch of activities for your itinerary, you might want to begin with the 17th-century Blenheim Palace (20 minutes’ drive), the moated Broughton Castle (15 minutes) or Oxford’s spires (40 minutes) and sights, which include everything from museums and a castle to a distillery and playhouse. Just short of two acres in size, the quiet grass field has access to running water, washing-up facilities and flushing toilets. So, back to basics, you go. Aside from the local village pub, there are many more pubs, restaurants and cafes within five to 10 minutes’ drive of the site when you want a hot brew or something tasty to eat. There’s no doubt that you’ll need the energy, considering that nearby family-friendly attractions include Fairytale Farm (10 minutes), The Lido, Chipping Norton (15 minutes) and the Banbury Open Air Pool (20 minutes). Any Shakespeare fans are bound to get in a significant number of steps in Stratford-upon-Avon (45 minutes) too, checking out the theatres and his birthplace.

What customers say

Spring Hill Farm's facilities are spotless, with a new shower block! Guests loved the peace, space, and country walks. Fire pits were a hit! Handy for pubs. Minor gripes: lukewarm washing-up water, muddy paths after rain, and no designated pitches impacting privacy for some.

Paddock unpowered grass tent site

Liked Everything!
We were a little worried when we turned up and the field was quite full (expected on bank holiday weekend) and there was only 2 toilets and 2 showers (each male & female) but even with how busy it was for the first couple of nights we never had to queue for either the toilet or shower. They were kept super clean, the showers always had hot water. And there was plenty of hooks, worktop and bench for bags, towels etc.
The site emptied after the weekend and we got to enjoy how really lovely and peaceful it is there. Lots of birds to spot flying over head. Also small planes and helicopters which our boys loved watching! Plenty of space for games and running around. Easy access to walks to different villages with pubs and shops.
Washing up area is exactly what you need - 2 sinks and plenty of worktop space, and undercover. Also great having the freezer for ice packs as it was so hot!
Owner messaged to check everything was ok a couple of times during our stay and saw them twice as well and they were lovely and friendly.
All round a great site!

Disliked Nothing.

Paddock unpowered grass tent site

Liked Lovely flat field. Wash up area (cold water only) bins and fire pits and wood available. Lovely clean toilet and shower block but you do have to climb stairs to toilets and showers. Lovely quiet nights sleep and field has gates so felt safe. Owners leave you alone so very peaceful.

Disliked Nothing really. Its always nice to have hot water at wash station but we just heated a pan of water and took it over.

Local attractions

Go on, treat yourself to a drink – local brews and guided tours can be tracked down at the Victorian Hook Norton Brewery (15 minutes’ drive) or the Cotswold Distillery Visitor Centre (20 minutes). An excellent challenge might be to tackle a stretch of the Roman Fosse Way, a Roman road that passes through characterful towns like Stow-on-the-Wold (half an hour) and Moreton-in-Marsh (25 minutes). Historic your itinerary may very well be… local National Trust sites include Chastleton House (20 minutes), Upton House (25 minutes) and Stowe Gardens (35 minutes). Medieval Warwick Castle (45 minutes) and Blenheim Palace in Woodstock (20 minutes), are yet more historic attractions. Of course, families are likely to be looking for lively places to keep kids well-entertained. Such spots include Cotswold Wildlife Park & Gardens (40 minutes), Birdland Park & Gardens (35 minutes), Cotswold Farm Park (40 minutes) and The Model Village (35 minutes) in Bourton-on-the-Water. If you have time to fit in some bargain hunting, Bicester Village (25 minutes) is the place to go too.
