About the site
This working farm offers a rustic, back to basics campsite. Located just outside of Banbury, it is a great base for exploring Oxfordshire, with both the Cotswolds and Bicester within easy reach, along with the famous Diddly Squat Farm from 'Clarkson's Farm'. There are a total of 45 grass pitches for tents and tourers, both of which come in a large variety of sizes for you to choose from. The pitches allow between two and six guests each, and some of the touring pitches also have an additional electric hook up. Discover delicious BBQ ingredients and fresh meat, along with cheese, jams and more in the onsite shop. The shop is also licensed for drinks to sit outside and enjoy the view! For the authentic camping experience, there are fire pit areas, please do not move the fire pits from their designated spots. You can also cook up your own BBQ but it must be raised from the ground. Dogs are very welcome, with no restriction on the number (must be on a lead nor is there any charge and there is plenty of nearby countryside for them to stretch their legs. Please note, there are no onsite showers.

Beautiful, peaceful location. Pot washing facilities, water and waste disposal. Toilets leave a little to be desired, I’m not apposed to a portaloo but they need to be clean. Host a lovely lady, very friendly and welcoming! Would definitely go back as we have a toilet and shower.
Perfect
