It was OK

we stayed at this CL, for the first time over the bank holiday weekend. in all fairness it was as described. very large pitches, the grass could have done with a visit from the lawn mower. The view was !!!, well there wasn't one, the site is surrounded by 20 foot conifer hedge, so all you see is green. i understand why the owner has done this. it has been done to deaden the sound of the busy road (unsuccessfully) but the time has come to reduce the hedges by a good 6 foot. Not a bad site, but at £15 per night there are nicer sites with a view, locally for that price

A Little Gem of a Site

We stay at Larkfield CL on a regular basis, the site is in a great location for touring the Cotswolds with some great attractions around like Blenheim Palace, Cotswold Wildlife Park, Hook Norton Brewery, Birdland at Bourton on the Water.

Oxford is a great day out with an excellent bus run from Chipping Norton.

This little gem of a site is on the outskirts of Chipping Norton and a 15-20 minute walk, which means you don't have to rely on your car.

The site is very well cared and loved for by the owners Billy and Margaret and take a lot of pride in the site. The site is screened by large conifer hedges and there is small hedges between each of the pitches, which are very spacious, level and not on top of each other, which allows you to pitch in a variety of ways to suit yourselves. Each of the pitches are numbered, with new electric hook up posts with lights. The grass is kept short and is mowed on regular basis by Billy, who you can tell it's his pride and joy and wants to keep the site looking good for us caravaners. It's has the added benefit by having a toilet on site and the water, waste and chemical disposal point (all kept immaculate) are all clearly marked and easy to access. Billy has a wealth of knowledge and will help you anyway if you require, from places to go or even if you have a problem on your van.

We visit many caravan club sites and CLs and this is one of our favourites that we keep returning too.

Lovely CL site ..But ...

We stayed at this lovely enclosed cl site for 1 week in June 16..the site itself is lovely and private..only 3 caravans were on at any one time whilst we were there .. Margaret is lovely..I only spoke to her when we arrived and just before we left .. Didn't speak to the brother though. He didn't seem as friendly.. My but is.... We have 3 extremely well behaved dogs and always clean up after them immediately..which we did during our stay . We even swilled the area with water were they had done their business.. we put up windbreaks around our van . 1. To keep our dogs enclosed and safe without being on a lead 2..I have a very elderly dog and her sight isn't what it used to be so it's to keep her from getting lost . 3. To prevent our dogs from visiting other caravanners..although we love our dogs and they love other people not everyone is dog friendly . We usually go with family upto 4 caravans and all have dogs and they are used to visiting the other caravans . The toilet and site was extremely clean and well maintained.. the road noise didn't bother us . We had pitch 4.. Ideal Base for visiting the cotswolds..we even managed a show in Oxford..and we attend the Field and Country Gamefair over the weekend .(our main reason for going) ...back to my BUT.. nowhere to give my dogs a good walk and run around to burn off some energy plus we love walking too ..we did find the Hook Norton old railway cutting around 1 1/2 miles away but there was nowhere to park the car.. we then had to travel 14 Mile round trip to give them a run on a large playing field that we found by chance on our way to Banbury .. we did this everyday whilst there because we love our dogs and want them to have the exercise that they are used to ..walking up and down a grass verge may pacify some dogs but it's not enough for mine. Would I visit again...No simply because of the lack of dog walking facilities.. if you don't own a dog or have one that doesn't require very much exercise then you are OK ...

Will not revisit

We booked 2 pitches in January 2015 for a 17 night stay in June, paying £100 deposit. On arrival, 4 pitches were already occupied and we were required to set-up both caravans on the one pitch. The owners had allowed one other unit to stay "an extra 3 days". Minimal apology was forthcoming and, indeed, were told that "it was a good job we owned only small vans". The fees had been increased 11% to £15 per night and there is no shop on site. Road noise is intrusive. There are more pleasant sites in the area.

Fabulous Location

This is a very well maintained site with large pitches and lawned grass. The facilities are very well kept and there is a toilet on site. The owners were very welcoming. We were on pitch 1 which fortunately was away from the road which can be noisy first thing in the morning! Despite this minor drawback the site is very secure and has easy access. We visited Chipping Norton , Blenheim Palace, Oxford and Banbury all within easy reach. I recommend the Lido at Chipping Norton. Would definitely return for another stay.

Our 2nd visit

This was our 2nd visit which we thoroughly enjoyed once again with a friendly reception from this most kindly couple. The site is very well maintained and quiet and nothing is too much trouble to the owners, Billy and Margaret. Chipping Norton is only 1.5 miles from the site and there are many other interesting places to visit including National Trust. We look forward to future visits to renew our aquaintance with Billy and Margaret. Many thanks Brian & Ann, Cheshire.

Almost perfect CL

Just home after a long weekend break at Larkfield. Beautifully maintained, large pitches, bonus of a loo on site. Owners extremely friendly and helpful. Well positioned for Blenheim, Oxford and many other places of interest. Only slight drawback is road noise but this died away each night and did not cause us any problems. Will recommend to our friends and hope to return for another short stay.

A lovely well kept site

We stayed here at Easter, it was a perfect base to explore the Cotswolds, Stratford Upon Avon and many more places. A trip to Hook Norton Brewery for the tour is a must !! The site was very well kept with plenty of space between pitches, very secure and good facilities, the owner was a very nice chap. Would not hesitate in booking again next year.

Cotswold Easter

Situated just off the A361 good for access but we felt the traffic noise spoilt our break. We were on pitch 5 so nearest to road. If you have a 4 legged friend only walk is alongside the A361. The location is great for the Cotswold villages. The site is very well kept and clean & owners very friendly & helpful.
