Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked I would definitely recommend Cotswold Camping. Staff are helpful and firendly. Lovely pitches. Great for familes with young and older children, also great for Couples.
Ideal location to explore the Cotswolds. Lovely onsite Cafe/bar, Art Gallery to visit. The Cauldron Cafe also offers a unique afternoon tea experience (booked in advance)

Liked Fun site nice pitch
Disliked Dirty toilets
Showers sprayed everywhere other than on your body unless you held it with your hand whilst trying to wash and push button.

From the manager: Hi Andrew ,
Thanks for your review. We’re really upset you found the toilets dirty, this year we’ve employed an extra cleaner and so far this year every single review across all platforms have mentioned just how clean the toilets are. In fact we’ve gone above and beyond to really make them spotless. Obviously with kids, rain and mud , they can become messy but being cleaned at least twice/three times per day they should always be tidy.
We have 16 showers on site and I’m aware of one shower head breaking , obviously if this is the one you’ve used the water pressure is going to send it everywhere. The new shower head holder is on order.
As for the dog mess , it’s truly unacceptable. We’ve actually for the first time since opening started charging for dogs. This is to pay someone to walk the site once per day and check for any mess left by irresponsible owners. We actually encourage all our customers to report and dog mess immediately, we have a zero tolerance approach to owners leaving their dog mess and not picking it up. If anyone is found to be doing this , they are asked to leave immediately with no refunds.
A good 90% of customers are responsible and leave no trace but if you have one or two irresponsible owners staying for more than one day it can have a negative effect. The warden as much as he tries can’t find every single one that may be on the ground.
Which is why it’s so important to report it as soon as possible.
Excellent site, clean facilities and good access to walking routes

Non-electric grass touring pitch
Liked Lovely location, great pitches - very spacious, cute shop and cafe with live music on the Saturday, lots of hot water on tap.
Disliked Not the sites fault but we were next to a family playing loud music late into the night. There were lots of dogs - some pitches seemed to have about 10 so perhaps they could do with an enforced limit as they were all setting each other off. Toilets could have been kept a little cleaner.
