A aimé Lovely peaceful site, great facilities. Had a great stay. Loved that you could purchase pellets from the shop to feed the goats.

A aimé Good site which was kept clean. Good mix of different amperage for hook up.

N'a pas aimé Lots of wasps. Could wasp traps be put around the site?
The trains run through the night and can be noisy.

A aimé Location, food available on site, goats and area for kids to play.
Food and drink on site fairly priced and quick. Free Wifi up by reception.

N'a pas aimé No set pitches, free for all so not good if you've a motor home and come and go without a wind break or some thing to hold your space. Also all in together no separation between tents and motorhomes/caravans.
I was told electric hook up not available but there were ones free during the stay. Toilets regally blocked and in a state. Men's and women's in through same doors with swing door which doesn't touch ground or ceiling so the urinal smell was over whelming in the ladies.
Wifi doesn't reach much past the top field. They don't monitor who's at the site. They just took my mane and said find a space, didn't make me feel safe especially as no gate on entrance to stop just anyone coming in.

A aimé The site was small, a lovely eating/ bar area with good park and bouncy castles. The staff in the shop were really friendly and helpful. Great for kids.

N'a pas aimé When we drove on the site felt really full and I struggled to find a spot to park. We stayed for 2 nights, the Sunday evening felt much calmer as less people around.

A aimé Animals and bouncy castles make this a fun campsite for young children.
Nice communal areas with benches/seats and a small bar.
Hot food served on weekends was great! Homemade pizzas (although one was very oddly shaped) tasted lovely.

N'a pas aimé Unfortunately feel toilet/shower facilities could use some TLC, broken toilet seat and broken soap dispenser which wasnt refilled for 2 days. Shower rooms quite small which made it difficult showering young children without getting yourself wet or whilst trying to keep clean clothes dry (unless you use the open changing area/bench outside the shower doors but door opens up to the playground).
Not the campsites fault but also lots of unsupervised, large groups of children for lengthy periods of time leading them to fall out, shout/swear and become quite intimidating to our younger children

A aimé Very friendly site with a lovely shop, cafe and bar.

A aimé Good to have a small takeaway food outlet. We had pizza one evening.
Always handy to have a shop for the essentials and to serve alcohol.

N'a pas aimé We didn't venture to the top field toilet block but the bottom field were just a bit make shift. Yes they were clean enough, but something a bit more substantial needs to be looked at. There were no showers in the bottom field. But of a walk to use showers in top field

Réponse du gestionnaire : Venture - 100m??? We’re really not a big site. Funny review?! Considering you ventured to get food which is all of a couple of metres from the main toilet block.

A aimé This site has many little surprises (spoiler alert!) like the goats (which you can feed), the birds, a peacock, bouncy castles (for kids only!) canalside walks, covered picnic areas and a bar and a shop with reasonable prices. We are actually very local (from Banbury) but wanted to be somewhere very close by so we could see what camping with 3 children is like and be able to go home quickly if it all went wrong, we all had the best time, we'll book again and we will definitely recommend it to friends and family.

N'a pas aimé Soap dispenser in the main ladies toilets was hanging off the wall and was often empty whilst we were there. It would be good to have two soap dispensers in there - one slightly lower down for disabled individuals and children and the other one that is currently there - would also help with the soap running out in busy periods.
