Oxford Oak Camping

Mi è piaciuto: Small quiet campsite, fantastic powerful hot showers, not a queue, provided hand towels and washing up liquid etc

Non mi è piaciuto: There isn’t a shop for essentials -e.g. toiletries. In which case complimentary feminine hygiene products in the loos or honesty box for eggs and bread would have been really appreciated. Electric just added so bit muddy where the cables have been added.

Mi è piaciuto: Small site behind farm. Very basic - field with 3/4 yurts and 3/4 camper van pitches with electricity. Water available a short walk away along with basic toilet and shower facilities. No frills at all but our last stop before home so it didn't bother us at all. Very nice and quiet. Lovely friendly host .

Non mi è piaciuto: Basic toilet and shower facilities which were all unisex. Two toilets one of which didn't lock properly. Two showers round the other side which were both in one room, just a shower curtain separating you from anyone else coming to use the other shower. All very clean though.

Mi è piaciuto: The field is excellent, hedges providing shelter from wind, good views and flat pitches. The facilities are clean and showers worked well. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Delightful site and would have been perfect for our needs.
Unfortunately, the Yurts had been rented to a large group of Dad’s with kids. The kids were not a problem. The Dad’s however were up very late drinking and getting louder and louder as they shouted across the fire pit. This may have been just bad luck for us, but fire pit set-up encourages large groups and distance across encourages shouting rather than normal talking volumes.
Would be perfect if Yurts were relocated to another field on farm. This could be a really peaceful site, with no traffic noise.

Non mi è piaciuto: Yurt fire pit set-up encouraging large groups and shouting rather than normal talking volumes.

Mi è piaciuto: The tent was a great size and beds really comfortable. The owner was super helpful and friendly. The campsite was relaxed and not over crowded. Fire pits provided per tent. Lovely little touches in the tent such as sun flowers and lamps. Toilets and showers were beautifully clean. A really enjoyable stay.

Mi è piaciuto: Oxford Oak is a bit of a hidden gem, the website doesn’t give much away so we were pleasantly surprised when we arrived.

One of the only campsites in the vale of the white horse it even offered a view of the white horse from our pitch which was pretty special.
Small and secluded with high hedgerow meant that it was a secure and family friendly space for small children to explore and play safely.

There are a handful of glamping tents to the one side of the field and space for about 30 tents on the rest of it if packed tightly around the perimeter. There are communal fire pits which are encouraged however we were given a portable fire pit on request as we didn’t want to leave the small children in the tents on their own.

It was a very welcoming and gentle site, dogs on leads are allowed however there were none there that we noticed. Everyone was very respectful of the noise curfews and we slept very comfortably.

The toilets were very clean and we noticed that the hand towels were changed daily (our son was very excited to discover that they even had a toddler seat for him)
The showers were warm and clean and the washing spaces well maintained.

Bonus points if you’re a military aircraft enthusiast as Fairford airfield isn’t far away which means that military planes fly over the site on occasion too.

Non mi è piaciuto: The only thing we would change would be that there was more of a crossover between the farm, the shop and the campsite. They all feel very separate from each other. It may be more appealing to some families if the farm offered a discount to those that are camping on site or allowed access to their children’s park facilities.
