High Lodge Farm

A aimé Beautiful location. We adore exploring this site. The woods, the fields, this year we found redkites on the field and the children absolutely loved it.
Very chilled and relaxed feel. Good facilities. The pitches are huge! The kids play area gets better every year. This is our first choice for our yearly catch up with friends and it is perfect.

N'a pas aimé It was portaloos this year and we preferred the toilet units there has been in the past but this is a minor gripe and if using the portaloos keeps the price down then we are definitely not complaining!

A aimé Children’s play equipment including an a frame and hay bales in the centre kept the 6 kids camping with us happy for hours. Portaloos clean and lots of toilet paper, plenty of space in each pitch for cars and tents.

N'a pas aimé Only cold water for washing up, make sure you boil some hot in advance if needed.

A aimé Scenic, not overcrowded, good fire pits, near lots of activities. Would not hesitate to come again!

N'a pas aimé Even better if there was an alternative to portaloos

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thank you very much Joe for your 9 score and your kind words. We love our firepits too! We've tried every type of toilet on site but beyond building a purpose built block, which the council would never give us permission for, we're stuck with either compost toilets, event toilets or portaloos. We've tried them all and Portaloos, although basic, seem to work the best.

A aimé The peaceful location, pitch size and has all the basic camping essentials you'll need. The hay bales for the kids in the middle of the site is absolutely brilliant and they are hugely popular.

N'a pas aimé Despite the land owners providing a whole area for Dog owners they choose not to clean up after there animals on the path around the site. Pure selfishness, if you can't be bothered to clean up after your animals it needs the site owners to ban them from the site.
Cost per pitch needs looking at £30 per nignt is not good value. Or of you book multiple nights then offer a discount.

A aimé Beautiful setting and views. Really spacious pitches, we had plenty of room for a large tent plus a small one. Everyone respected the quiet hours so it was really peaceful at night. Great setup with the pitches around the edge of the field and space for kids to play in the middle. Our kids are teenagers now but it was lovely to see so many little kids playing and making friends.

N'a pas aimé Not much. I was a bit worried when I read there were portaloos but actually there were plenty of them so they never got too smelly, and when they started to get full on the Sunday (bank holiday weekend) a tanker came to empty them, so the owners were obviously taking good care of the facilities.

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thanks very much for trusting us with your camping adventure this summer. We're so pleased you enjoyed the setting and views. Everyone loves the central play area which brings all the little ones together.

A aimé The woods were nice and the hay bales.

N'a pas aimé The site is unmanned and nobody to enforce rules, there were issues with drugs and noise. The facilities are very basic for the price and the fact it’s unmanned.

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We're very sorry you had those types of issues at our family campsite. We always encourage campers to contact us immediately if there are problems like this as we're only a few minutes away.

Like many pop-up farm campsites, it's not manned 24/7 but there is someone on site for several hours each day at various points in the morning, lunchtime, late afternoon and early evening - although you may not have seen them, we're always checking everyone is okay, litter picking, taking additional payments, clearing rubbish and making sure all the facilities are in order.

A aimé Amazing 1st time camping with my son and friends. He loved it and wanted to stay longer. I would definitely return for more than one night next time.

N'a pas aimé As a group of us we would have love did if we could have played some music.

Didn’t realise Wi-Fi was accessible. - my own fault.

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thank you for trusting us with your first camping experience! It's such a fun holiday for little ones. We hope you manage to visit us again one day.

A aimé Beautiful location with amazing scenery. Abingdon and the River Thames I’m easy walking distance providing access to some excellent pubs!

N'a pas aimé Could do with more than 2 sinks fir washing up as at peak times this creates a queue
