  • 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.

What customers say

Nice, tidy site with lekker staff and big spots. Guests love the fishing lakes & dog walks. Toilets/showers are good, but a few more hooks/drying space would be great. Peaceful, great for exploring. Occasional WiFi iffy, some loos could do with a spruce.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked The site was clean, the owner I met was lovely and polite. The showers were clean and hot. Also no silly push button!! Washing up sinks were clean and water hot.

Disliked Around the shower block at night from the grass N/e pitches was pitch black. No lights along paths.
Washing up in the dark was tricky.
The shower head was broken but still functional.
The light in the ladies shower kept going out and whilst in the left cubicle you couldn’t turn it back on as the sensor was out of reach..
I had barely time to undress and out it went …

This said the site is cheap, clean and has fantastic facilities. All above easily fixable.

Camping pod (six person, family)

Liked Last minute half term stay and we had the best time ! Stayed in the bigger pod sleeps six and was brilliant ! My son is obsessed with fishing and think we have been to Glebe about four times this week ! So I thought why not book a last minute stay !
Clean quiet and relaxing will definitely be booking again.

Electric grass pitch

Liked The pitch was fine

Disliked Cleaning of toilet block - the records showed it had been cleaned on 25th Oct but not again before we left on 29th Oct. Frankly it was poor! One of two toilets leaking, wet toilet paper on floor, sinks not clean and the two showers got muddier and muddier. Mud likely to be due to the fishermen!

Camping pod (four person)

Liked We upgraded our pod to a 6 persons once we arrived. It was a back up for a cancelled camping trip due to a storm that wasnt safe for a tent. Lovely facilities it was a quiet weekend and the amenities were clean and maintained. We got the camping experience we were hoping for and we stayed dry!! I would definitely return to the area. Spent the day at Bicester Village and Air-hop trampoline park. The park is small but nice grounds to walk around the fishing lake

Disliked The toilets high windows were opened on the first night so it was cold didn't figure how to shut them but they were shut on the second night

Recommend to friends Visit again

Definitely go again.

Camping pod (four person)

Liked The location is beautiful and peaceful. We came in October so the site wasn’t busy at all.

Disliked Pods are definitely not for 4 people, they are very cosy but 4 mattresses is a big squeeze. WiFi wasn’t working at all

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.
