  • Cosy family-run farm site three miles from the edge of the Cotswolds
  • Cotswold Wildlife Park five minutes’ drive; Oxford 40 minutes
  • On-site shop selling fresh produce; firepit provided for each pitch
Cocoon down for a rather cosy stay at West End Farm Camping, three miles from the edge of the Cotswolds National Landscape. Pitches at this small and intimate family-run site are in a grassy plot surrounded by fields grazed by animals or left to grow for hay. West End Farm is just outside Shilton and a five-minute drive from the town of Burford and the Cotswold Wildlife Park & Gardens, meaning that you’ll also be well connected to several local attractions. This is a rural location, so the views come in strong – the site looks over the Cotswold hills and the Ridgeway National Trail. Handily, walking and cycling paths are not far away either, and there are lots of routes leading into pretty Cotswold villages and towns. From here though, you’ll be particularly primed to see Burford’s medieval bridge, church and antiques shops, or to potter into Shilton village (10 minutes’ walk) to relax by its ford or to visit its friendly pub. The site has a small shop stocked with meats such as pork and beef, plus eggs, bread and locally produced jams and honey, and each pitch has its own firepit to keep you warm on alfresco evenings (or even cook your dinner if you like). Other facilities on site include clean compost toilets and hot-water showers.

What customers say

A friendly, peaceful, small farm campsite. Guests love the spacious, neat pitches (often with braai areas) and seeing the farm animals. The on-site shop and easy access to local sights are a plus. Facilities are basic but clean, with compost toilets and hot showers. Management addressed minor issues like aircraft noise and shower temps.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked The campsite was very well looked after and quiet. The farm was very sweet as you can tell the animals are looked after well.

Disliked I should have asked for fire wood in advance which I wasn't aware of.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thanks for your review. Sorry about the wood if you had said I would have left you some. We used to leave wood out for late comers but people would take some and not pay.

A lovely farm camp site. Will e returning.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Small, peaceful site with compost toilets and simple showers but the water was hot and plentiful.
Lovely to see pigs, cows, hens and ducks and a small play area for children.
Easy walk to look around the pretty village of Shilton. Great location for Crocodiles of the world, Burford and Cotswold wildlife park.
Farm shop on site selling their delicious bacon, eggs and sausage.
We enjoyed seeing the aeroplanes going to and from Brize Norton.

Disliked Washing up area is a tap and sink which was fine as we like simple camping but no shelter if it was raining.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thanks for your kind review, so sorry about the washing up station we do want to improve it.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Really liked the mowed out pitches with fire pit included! I think it says you must buy wood from the farm but when we arrived the wonderful host Celia, said that wasn't the case and ppl can bring their own. Lovely and quiet, fridge available to use, composting toilets were very clean! Would definitely stay again. Perfect base for The Farmers Dog, although we struggled to get an Uber (we didn't get one at all) so might be good to arrange a taxi before arrival.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Lovely people. The team were so helpful. The shop sold superb meat, eggs and a variety of other products for campers. Meeting the baby pigs and cows was fantastic. A small site, large pitches and well kept amenities. Great location for walking.

Disliked Nothing at the campsite itself, it was all great. I would note that the local pub, the Shilton Rose and Crown, is very pricey and has a grumpy landlord who won't serve food in the grassy area of the garden and basically threw our starter at us. The other staff were lovely though, and food is very good if you can afford it and you aren't vegetarian. I recommend just buying from the camp farm shop and BBQ for yourself!

Local attractions

Giraffes, lions and primates are just some of the residents at Cotswold Wildlife Park & Gardens (five minutes’ drive), where a lively programme of events includes feeding sessions, animal encounters and talks. When the kids are all animal-ed out, take them to the park’s Skymaze adventure playground, with treehouses and jungle bridges. On the upper fringes of the North Wessex Downs National Landscape is the Uffington White Horse (40 minutes), an equine figure carved into the side of a chalky hill in the Bronze Age. Other prehistoric remains in the area include the Iron Age Uffingdon Castle hillfort and several Neolithic burial mounds. Besides its famed universities, Oxford (40 minutes) also has the world-class Ashmolean Museum, which displays collections of western and eastern art, plus antiquities and musical instruments. Take a tour of the Bodleian Library, or book yourself on a relaxing cruise on the River Thames.
