  • Quiet secluded site close to Bicester
  • The closest site to Bicester Heritage (two miles)
  • Fishing lakes on site
What an excellent Oxfordshire site this is for anglers. And walkers. And quiet English countryside appreciators. For friendly and well-maintained Glebe Leisure Park is in a cracking countryside location on the edges of Buckinghamshire and Northamptonshire as well as Oxfordshire and has two fishing lakes on site as well as lots of trails all around. Dogs – and their owners – like this place too, as there are long walks and gravelled pathways with dog waste bins set at handy locations, and it's mighty like too that cyclists will like the gentle and short pedal along to local town Bicester... Any amenities you might need are sorted here, such as a loo and shower block with info room about the surrounding area, a toilet and shower facilities for disabled guests, a chemical disposal point, drinking water outlets and a car park.

Jo J.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked Lovely area, staff very friendly and helpful. Showers and toilets very clean. Nice woods and lake to walk dogs.

Disliked Not a dislike of the site but nearest pub 25 minutes walk so we just bought in food and drinks.
Paid access to WiFi which barely connected, only £2 per day but wasn’t reliable.

Liked Beautiful location, helpful staff.

David E.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked Location suited our break

Disliked No electric on arrival and took 1 1/2 hrs for receptionist to attend after the owner had ignored the problem. Managed to sort with the receptionist in the main switch room.
Then had tripped during the night but luckily a contract builder was on site who obtained the switch room key and reset the trip for us.

Local attractions

Plenty of shops, restaurants, pubs and cafés are in Glebe Leisure's local town of Bicester within a couple of miles, and designer clothes and accessories in the outlet shopping centre Bicester Village. Glebe is the closest site to Bicester Heritage, the first park in the UK for the tender loving restoration care of classic and vintage cars, motorbikes and planes, all on over 345 acres of an old RAF bomber station. The centre's been described as 'a historic motoring fan's idea of heaven' so do speed along there if old engines make your motor hum. Twelve miles from the site is simply smashing Blenheim Palace, given to the first Duke of Marlborough by Charlie 2 and handed down through the Churchill family to reach one Winston some decades back. You really should have a trip... Also within 12 miles are another few British institutions: the dizzying array of arty treasures at the National Trust's Waddesdon Manor; Broughton Castle at Banbury, and days out spectating fast types at Silverstone Circuit.
