Our first trip out this year and we wanted some peace & quiet-we certainly got it! The site was not very busy, so was quiet, and the occasional lion roar was lovely to hear. A visit to the animal park was fabulous-where else can you go eye to eye with a giraffe?! Also, the food in the restaurant is reasonably priced and good quality, with decent sized portions. A trip to Oxford was rather more fraught, so if you have a motorhome-pay attention! Did our research into the park and ride system before leaving home, so thought we had it sussed. However, the satnav packed up, so had to rely on road signs. To cut a long and VERY frustrating story short, be aware that the park and ride site at Water Eaton, which is the first one you come to on the A40, has been renamed Oxford Parkway. Unfortunately, none of the road signs have been altered! (We had ignored these signs, as they had the railway symbol on, so thought it was a separate site). Also, when arriving at the park and ride, pull up outside the area marked for high sided vehicles, go to the small building where the buses arrive/depart and look for the attendant-if he is not about, go inside the building and press the buzzer by the office door. He will then come over and unlock the barrier so you can park. The same applies when you return, so you can leave-just make sure it's before 7pm as he goes home then and you will be shut in for the night! Apart from that, we had a lovely time, and now we have sussed the system, will return so we can go into Oxford and explore properly.
