We are recently back from a 3 night stay at Crofts Barn CL site (end of July).
Each of the pitches were laid out in a circular pattern, all grass, separated by low hedges, I presume to be the spokes on a wooden wheel, had their own drinking water tap and grey waste drain. There was a central hub which was the electric hookup for each of the 5 Caravans/Motorhomes.
Each caravan did not directly look out on each other.
Plenty of room on the pitch for both caravan and awning.
Cars were parked in the car park, next to the site.
The people who run the site were friendly and informative about the local area, although we were left to ourselves, we don’t mind that.
The facilities, even though was just a single shower room with a wash basin and toilet, was spotless and plenty of room.
We were advised 2 weeks prior to our stay, that due to COVID-19, restrictions had been applied to the use of the facilities, as it was situated in a building used by their office staff, hours of using the facilities were to avoid office hours Mon-Fri.
As we stayed Fri-Mon, that didn’t bother us.
There was a resident horse and donkeys in the paddock next to us and also chickens but were not roaming around.
There weren’t any Alpacas, as we were advised when there, that they were not friendly.
We weren’t there long enough to see any wildlife, but did see a few birds of prey and deer crossing the road nearby.
On a walk we were advised of by the owners, did mention badgers and what to look out for, but, we must have gone on the walk at the wrong time of day but did see signs that they had been about.
It was very quiet and peaceful and no obtrusive lighting at night time either.
We also found that Crofts Barn was an ideal base to tour the Cotswolds, with places such as Bourton-on-the-Water, Chipping Campden, Broadway, Broadway Tower were only about 1/2 hour away by car and Banbury was about 20 minutes away by car as well.
We would thoroughly recommend this site to anyone.
