Why stay here ...

Our flat green field site is located on the outskirts of Dorchester on Thames with its picturesque abbey and former coaching inns. Our local market towns are Abingdon and Wallingford which are both a 10 to 15 minute drive. Oxford city with its dreaming spires, museums, restaurants and bars is a 10 minute drive and our local bus service (within walking distance of the site) gives easy access if you want to leave the car behind. This is a great site to use as a base to explore the surrounding Oxfordshire countryside, much of which is regularly used as TV and film locations.

We have a chemical disposal point and drinking water tap in one corner of the field with a second drinking water tap halfway down the field. 

A great location with easy access for exploring this part of Oxfordshire including:

  • Dorchester-on-Thames with it's Abbey and former Coaching Inns.
  • Clifton Hampden with its beautiful thatched cottages.
  • Wittenham Clumps dating from Roman times.
  • Wallingford Town and its castle ruin.
  • River walks.
  • The dreaming spires of Oxford
  • Local pubs and shops.
  • Public transport nearby.
  • A friendly welcome.

We look forward to meeting you.

An easy access site with village, shop and pub a short walk away. So peaceful.

Burcot Brook Lodge
What a lovely site. Communication with the owners was brilliant and accommodating. The field is really large and pretty level, hardly any adjustment needed. Easy to find and easy access. You can walk to Dorchester on Thames along the road which has a path alongside it, DoT has a few pubs and a little Coop which is handy. You can also wander the other direction for a drink/food at the Chequers which is nice. The owners gave us an A4 fact sheet with info on which was handy as we needed to refuel and the info was on there on where the nearest was. We were here for a couple of nights for a wedding at the Earth Trust so only managed to visit Wallingford (& DoT) which was an absolute delight, drinks in the sun at the newly refurbished Boathouse (after the flood) was so lovely that we went twice in one morning, a early cuppa and then back for lunch after a nice walk. The sound of the red kites flying overhead was so delightful, I just love that sound. On the morning we left we saw a hot air balloon go overhead.... always a treat. We will return and stay longer next time as the area is simply gorgeous.

Fabulous little site.

Burcot Brook Lodge
A fabulous little gem of a site. We have just spent 4 nights here and are sad to be leaving. Perfect for lovely walks or short bus rides into Wallingford or Oxford. The owner, Nicky, couldn’t have been more helpfull. Will definitely be back.

Lovely, relaxing site

Burcot Brook Lodge
Following recommendations from a post I put on Facebook earlier this year, we had a one night stay at Burcot Brook Lodge CL en route to Dorset. We received a lovely welcome from Nicky when we arrived and were made to feel very welcome. The grass site was spacious and we could park wherever we wanted to. It was a really warm day and was lovely sitting out in the evening with a glass of wine and a book - watching the ground mist creeping in. We had EHU with grey waste into the hedge. Beautiful sunrise. I would definitely stay again.

Little Gem

Burcot Brook Lodge
Nice traditional CL with lovely owners. Large well drained grass field with plenty of electric hook up points plus water and CDP disposal. Excellent TV signal and easy access of the road. Plenty to do in the area, five minutes walk to The Chequers Gastro pub. Fifteen minutes walk into Dorchester on Thames , the setting for many an episode of Midsomer Murders. In the real world it has an Abbey, Co-Op, three hotels/pubs and a further Fifteen minutes walk to Days Lock on the Thames and Wittenham Clumps. Easy access by car into Oxford Park and Ride, Wallingford, Didcot Railway Centre and the museum of Minature Landscape/model railway at Long Wittenham and Henley on Thames.

Perfect ….We just had a five night stay here

Burcot Brook Lodge
This was our second visit here . Last year we came in our caravan but this year it was our first trip out in our motorhome which we only got last week. We were a little worried as to how we would manage without a car to pop out in but no problems. There are bus stops just round the corner from the site with buses to Abingdon and walk a little further (less than 15 mins ) and you can catch the express bus to Oxford, Reading and Wallingford ( we went to Wallingford ] We also caught the bus to Iffley and walked down the Thames path to Sandford on Thames ,. The Thames Path at Dorchester on Thames is also a nice walk away to watch the boats ……All you need is a bus timetable ( and our dog went on the bus with us everywhere ) …We had a lovely time, the site is fabulous and spacious and we will be back next year to walk some more of the Thames path. Thank you Nicky and Andy
