7 Night stay. Arrived a couple of days after snowfall, which had turned to thick ice in low temperatures. Fair play to Site Hosts, we had a phone call from them on the morning we were due to arrive to let us know that road conditions on site were “treacherous”. Well, we were already on our way and it was time to rely on our Winter Tyres. It was indeed treacherous on site...winter tyres did the job though! First time in a few years of CMC holidaying that every guest has obeyed the 5 mph speed limit...curious that! Site is in a great location, easy, flat walk into Town, we also noticed a bus stop right outside site and the train station in town from where you can get to Worcester and Oxford in under an hour...both great days out. We enjoyed travelling around to see lots of beautiful Cotswold Towns and villages, a couple of our favourites, Burford, (try The Angel Pub for a great lunch by a cosy log burner and warm hospitality) and Chipping Campden with its lovely honey coloured stone buildings.....so English. Only one thing spoiled our stay, and for the record, was completely out of the control of CMC. The complete ignorance of a guest who decided to clean his toilet out at the fresh water point completely floored us...by the time it registered with us what he was actually doing, and I’d parked the car up, he was gone...just as well I suppose! A quick call to Reception...they were obviously furious - and within minutes the whole affected area was being sanitised by one of our wonderful Site Hosts, thankyou, you are all a real credit to our Club. Pitching tip, we noticed a bit of road noise, so choose pitch carefully, there are plenty well away from the main road.
