Likte This is an amazing campsite, which really allows for connecting with nature. The site itself is really spacious with the large pitches spread around the fields. Some of these are on the banks of the River Thame and it you're in one of the Freedom pitches there is also easy access from The Holt which is more of a communal space where you can chill in hammocks, prepare food or take a dip! There's also a deeper swimming site just a couple of minutes upstream.

There are great walks from the campsite to local pubs, including at Stadhampton, Little Milton and Cuddesdon.

The owner, Fi, was so welcoming and explained how things worked and also the directions for my walk.

I saw lots of fish and a heron by the river on my walk but I was also lucky to see a hare running around the field first thing in the morning and it was great hearing the tawny owl after sunset.

I cannot recommend this site highly enough and I'm already looking forward to my next stay when I'm returning with family.

Fra bestyreren: Looking forward to welcoming you back this weekend.

Likte I loved the size of the plots and the peace and quiet. We also enjoyed swimming in the one spot once we figured out how to get there 😀 .

Likte ikke Because we were on the opposite side of the washrooms, and it looked like they we replanting in the middle (there was a fence around) the treck to the washroom was a bit long. Maybe we should've asked if we can walk across!

Fra bestyreren: Sorry guys - we are planting fodder beet for the cattle but had we chatted we would have definitely told you it was ok to cross over. There is no livestock in there but good of you to check. We have now rectified this and told everyone to please cross to get to the shower block. However, delighted that you enjoyed your stay so much and found the fun swimming spot.

Likte Large pitch sizes, low density, river swimming, barbecue facility, friendly helpful staff.

Fra bestyreren: We are delighted you love it as much as we do. We love your pictures too. Come again.

Likte Had the whole place to myself. Arrived and went to the wild camping reception where I bought some wood which I could help myself to. £2.50 per armful with a card machine to pay for the amount you’ve taken. Also fresh farm produce for sale. Instructions written on walls making things very simple!
Fi and Phil were very friendly and both said hello and made me feel very welcomed considering I was a solo female camper. They ensured I had everything I needed and even let me meet their lovely dogs!
So much wildlife around the farm, red kites everywhere, hares, pheasants, cows, heron… the list goes on! Absolutely fantastic sunset and sunrise too! And… not to mention the swimming spot within a 10 minute walk from my tent!
Lovely warm showers, glamorous (as glamorous as they can be) compost toilets and water available near pitches. Able to also drive around and park next to pitches!
Overall, an absolutely lovely place that I’ll definitely be returning to!

Fra bestyreren: Thank you for your lovely review.

We have just acquired 2 new kayaks and a small boat which will enable us to get to those hard to reach trees in the tributary and get them cleared.

Looking forward to welcoming you back again.

Likte Lovely spacious pitches, quiet location. The shower was hot and had really good water pressure!

Likte Big area, few other people. Perfect! Plenty of space to be away from other people. Very quiet. Basic facilities so you have what you need, even if it’s a bit of a walk. Plenty of trees/hedges so it’s not a huge bleak area. Nice spots near the river.

Likte ikke Not a dislike but worth knowing - there are chemical loos dotted about but I only saw one shower and washing up place so be prepared for walk or have your own solution!

Fra bestyreren: Thank you for your lovely review.

We have noted about the chemical loos and have now installed compost loos instead which are much more nature friendly and fitting for our campsite. We have also put the compost loos at either end of the freedom camping field making them much more accessible for all campers in the freedom spot.
