A great boozer Friendly staff The pitch is fantastic value One of the only let down is that the pitch needs to be marked out so customers know where they must park Would stay again

Great Site

Large Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesAug 2026

Very nice campsite on the site of a pub that does great food. It’s definitely great value for money, and offers nice hikes around Hook Norton. Toilet facilities are shared with the pub, which can make it quite busy at times (we went in peak summer)

Great spot

Single Axle Caravan - Electric Grass PitchesAug 2026

The location is excellent for travelling the Cotswolds including Diddly Squat farm, Bourton-on-the-Water etc. It is located behind a skip hire company which can be noisy at times, but it isn't so bad and you do get used to it. The pub was lovely and got a lot of customers which says something. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely return and recommend.

Everything we needed...

Really lovely location. Good for new walks and planning pubs along the route. We only lived half an hour away but was ideal to get there after people finished work and easy to set up! Staff at the pub amazing and nothing was too much. Facilities good and clean! Will be recommending and returning!

Nice and quiet campsite

Very nice and quiet campsite. Pub food excellent. Toilet and shower clean. It took a while til the water was warm and the pressure was low but enough for a quick shower.

Exactly what we expected it to be and a bit more!

Absolutely lovely pub campsite. Exactly as explained in the description. The area there is for camping is a great size, plenty of room. Amenities really clean, everything you need for a stay over. The pub itself is really great! Beautiful building, brilliant staff, very welcoming and the locals are lovely too! Would definitely return if we were in the area. Many thanks

Nice site attached to a great pub

Nice site in open country. Liked the pub with their friendly and helpful staff. Facilities are exactly as advertised. Fairly basic but works well with everything needed for a short stay. Will go back.

Lovely peaceful stay in a beautiful area

We had a lovely stay at this campsite. It's in a beautiful, peaceful, and quiet area surrounded by fabulous countryside. Staff were friendly and welcoming throughout our stay. Basic facilities that were exceptionally clean and very well maintained. We would definitely recommend this campsite to anyone looking for a tranquil getaway to relax in beautiful surroundings.

Good - lovely pub, good food, great greeting & introduction to site. Bad - only 2 toilets which ran out of toilet paper, so none for the morning & they weren't checked or cleaned at all during our stay. Rubbish bins overflowing.

One night stopover

£20 a night. Lots of space, camping field a slight slope but you can find more levels bits within it. Pretty busy and popular. 24h access to pub toilets. 2 new showers at side of pub. Good food and generous portions. We stayed with no EHU. Decent play park and plenty grass space for the kids. No complaints, enjoyed our stay 👍🏻

Great facilities

The hard standing pitches are basically a crushed rock surface. Other people had parked their vehicles on it, the pitch was unclear! The location is great, but the site was like being dropped into a rough area! There are two new showers, nowhere to hang your clothes and no hot water. We never saw any member of staff older than 25 and there just didn't seem to be any rules. It was a magnet for large groups of people with their friends having a great time, while their kids ran amok. We won't be returning!

No problem

Could do with a proper shower and toilet block for how busy it is, but other than that, no complaints at all. Lovely staff and cracking site.

Great place to pitch up

What a great campsite/pub, food is excellent, staff are friendly and the site is perfect for all your camping needs. Give it a go, you won't regret it. We chose here as we were going to Diddly Squat Farm Shop and this location is only 30 mins away from there, so perfect for us.

Great pub stop

Lovely location for a campsite! It will be great when they have finished upgrading A lovely location and great pub onsite! There was only one shower and no washing up facilities, however, they are currently upgrading. We would definitely go again when everything is finished!

We will be back!

Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesJul 2026

A last minute 1 night trip for us lead to this little gem. I made a reservation for food when we knew we were coming and I'm glad we did, the food was so so good, lots of drinks to choose from, just a shame we didn't have room for pudding! The campsite was great just pick a spot and pitch up - the facilities are having renovation but the shower to the front and pub toilets were clean and kept well stocked. Fresh water available and plenty of bins. We were made to feel welcome from the staff and locals and we will be back to stay, we couldn't have asked for more.
