We Keep Coming Back
Our third visit, we were on our way home to Cumbria from Sussex and wanted to break the journey with a stopover. Newton Grove immediately came to mind because it is such a great CL. It is about 20 minutes from the M40 west of Banbury. Since our last visit in October the owner John has made yet more improvements with the addition of an information shelter with notice board, maps, brochures and site info. He has upgraded the mobile solar panel unit with a larger panel, and kept the previous solar panel for use also. Both free to use if required by visitors. The owner is very helpful. We witnessed this first hand during our recent visit when a couple arrived unaware that this is a non hook up site. Their leisure battery was flat and the site owner went the extra mile, charging their battery and hooking them up to the solar power unit.
The local pub, The Duck on The Pond is under new ownership and is now dog and family friendly.
This time we had a very pleasant easy walk from the site to the nearby village of Milcombe (with pub and village covenience store) using footpaths.
