Cotswolds Camping

喜欢: A real back to nature feel, well kept and sufficient spaces between pitches allowing plenty of privacy. Showers and toilets were clean and towel in toilet was replaced frequently during our one day stay.

不喜欢: Lack of instruction for arrival. We arrived not knowing what to do. Called number on board but no reply. The regular church bells throughout the day and night were loud and intrusive. Aware this is not the sites responsibility but had a negative impact on our stay due to lack of sleep.

来自经理: Thanks for your review Helen. Glad you liked the site in general and found the facilities clean. We did think Pitchup sent out arrival instructions for campers automatically but have realised this is not the case - our apologies! They are sent automatically when guests book direct, I will find out if it's possible for this to be added or if not we will send them manually. We do monitor the phone and are regularly up on the campsite to welcome guests, but as everyone arrives at different times we can't be there all the time. And we may miss a phone call here and there but 9/10 we will answer where we can. Regarding the church bells, yes they do ring regularly and appreciate some people find it disturbing, there are free earplugs available at the facilities. I'm not sure if the wind direction affects this as sometimes no one mentions it and other times it is an issue. But as you say unfortunately this is out of our control and not something we can change sadly.

喜欢: Everything was "as advertised" and a great site with no hassles and no children.

不喜欢: I read some of the reviews from previous people who stayed and noted the comments about the nearby church bells..... If you want to sleep at night then I suggest you don't stay here. Church bells are loud and they chime every 15 minutes !!! I am a good/heavy sleeper with earplugs when camping and I didn't get any sleep. I appreciate this is NOT the fault of the campsite but please be aware of this local noise pollution - you have been warned. Honestly, there is no reasonable need for church bells chiming ALL NIGHT

来自经理: Thanks for your review Peter, we are pleased to hear you think our site was great. We are a bit disappointed that the church bells had such a negative impact on your stay. We offer free earplugs for guests and they are normally sufficient to block out the noise, I think where you pitch can have an impact I.e. the right hand side of the stone circle is closest to the church and they will be louder there, so we recommend the pitches near the facilities/by the orchard if you think they may disturb you as these are lower down and sheltered from the bells. Unfortunately the bells are out of our control, 9 times out of 10 it won't affect guests, I think some people can block them out and see it as background noise and others find it very disturbing, we do think it is a bit unfair to give such a low score solely because of the bells however, as this is something out of our control and we warn guests about them as much as we can. It was mentioned by others staying the same weekend so I think the wind direction must have played a part over your stay, as they can be much louder if the wind is blowing towards the campsite, or nearly silent if the wind is blowing in the opposite direction!

喜欢: How quiet and peaceful the campsite was. Choice of pitches to stay in. The fact that you could have a fire. Location.

不喜欢: The showers were not quite so clean as I would have liked.

来自经理: Thanks for your great review Aleicia, we love that you found the site quiet and peaceful - that is our main aim! We are very sorry that the showers were not upto scratch over your stay, I can assure you we do clean them regularly and I think it is more dependant on other guests cleanliness - some are very respectful of shared facilities and others not so much! We could have just cleaned them, but if someone has come in and left them in a worse state they would stay like that until the next clean. If you contact us in an instance like this we would come and sort it immediately. We hope to welcome you here again in the future :)

喜欢: Really wild. Lovely site. Lots of birds. Hidden away.

不喜欢: Ponds and their mosquitos!

来自经理: Thanks for your great review Helena, we are glad that you got to experience some of the wildlife we have here. There is currently a mother duck with 4 ducklings strolling around the campsite and it is lovely to see! Yes the pond does attract flys and the like, which can be made worse in the heat, but glad it did not affect your stay too much and you still gave a great review. Hope to welcome you here again in the future!

喜欢: The host was very welcoming and showed me around on arrival, pointed out the best spot to park in order to see the sunset at its best. The shower was amazing and equal in pressure only to those of a Spanish hotel. Could have honestly stayed under it for hours

不喜欢: As the site is all grass and track it was very muddy to drive in. Host had to help push the van into position as the wheels were spinning. This is a fab campsite if you truly are after peace and solitude. There is nothing witching miles except the charming local pub that doesn’t open weekdays until 5pm. Unfortunately the local church has a bell chime that goes off on every half hour and an extra chime on the hour, 24hrs a day! This does indeed break the silence and I felt like I hadn’t slept all night. The facilities are very basic but clean. Everything you need really. I left a day early but only because I couldn’t take anymore chimes.

来自经理: Thanks for your review. Unfortunately you did come on the weekend where we had torrential rain just beforehand (we closed the site to other campers but wanted to honour guests who had already booked). Due to the rainfall and wet ground we were unable to mow into October (whereas any other year we have been). Over the Winter we have kept the campsite completely closed (for the first time in 10 years) due to the unprecedented amount of rain! We have taken this time to do necessary repairs to the ground, installing new wood chip pathways and refurbishing the facilities. We hope this will give the campsite a new feel and customers coming over the Summer will enjoy using the site. I can only apologise, but hope that it's clear if you were to visit in a dry spell you would've had a completely different experience! Unfortunately there is nothing we can do in regards to the church bells, they do chime constantly, we're used to it but accept some guests find it disturbing and we do pre-warn everyone as much as possible. It's on all listings for our site online and we do offer free earplugs by the facilities for those who are light sleepers.

喜欢: Beautiful location - so quiet. Really relaxing and tranquil spot. Can't wait to go back.

喜欢: Everything! But, in particular, I like how quiet the site is. Indeed, it can be silent which is amazing given how many people stay! Beautiful dark skies with lots of stars. V. helpful site manager & a great location. Whichford Pottery is wonderful & the fish & chips at the Mermaid Fish Bar in Moreton in the Marsh are very good! Lots to see & do in the area so, will be coming back again & again.

喜欢: Peaceful, calm site in beautiful countryside. Small ish site, with lovely surroundings which is perfect for a break away. There was a fridge, freezer, and some appliances which I didn't realise in advance which is very helpful. Nice choice of pitches in the meadow or in/near the orchard. The wooden table and chairs at my pitch were super handy.

不喜欢: Facilities are basic but sufficient. More showers would be handy but may not be possible due to the simple nature of the location. What's there is of reasonable quality and the campsite wasn't too busy. The meadow water tap was blocked off a little by a wooden frame, even though probably still accessible.

喜欢: The people that manage the site, are thoughtful, friendly and considerate. It made my stay feel more relaxing. They went out of their way to share information and to offer help if needs be. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. It was brilliant. A tranquil idyllic place. The Church bells didn't cause issues for me personally. Ear plugs are available for light sleepers but bring your own if your the fussy type. I definitely will be back sometime in the future.

不喜欢: Nothing.
