Where's the service point

Very enjoyable week but a long walk for services ie water, waste & toilet disposal. We were in the lower part of the site, why no service point in this area. Everything about the site was good apart from this issue.

A Great Stay

We’ve had a very enjoyable stay over the last few weeks at Burford Site. However it is not often I write a review without just cause but reading a members comments on multipacks some what annoyed me.   If you trawl through various forums on web and the Trading Standards site specifically, the subject clearly states it is not illegal to sell multipack products individually, it is purely a ploy by the manufacturer to deter retailers from making a few pence per item more. Admittedly contents may not be on the product however I have seen for myself, in the small convenience shop on site, the plasticised ingredients lists where this information is made available to prospective shoppers.  As for parking in front of the toilets, I am one of the guilty and admit openly, I got away with it, and it’s all down to timing but logically we should not do it but lead by example.  As for the site management, there has been a lot of TLC expended since the arrival of the new wardens who took over in the latter part of 2015: being a younger generation they are very focused on meeting Customer Expectations and have shown they will go out of their way to help within the confines of Health and Safety. We wish Mr and Mrs Huggins all the best in their endeavor’s and hope to revisit the site later in the year. Long may this positive trend continue.

A very nice two weeks

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this site. Site conditions and facilities were excellent, as were, in general, the site staff. The only flies in the ointment were a: The officious way we were told that parking in front of the toilet block was not allowed (No parking signs would help to avoid confusion, there are none). This surprised my partner, because cars and vans had been stopping there to go to the toilet on the way out, all the time we were there both before and after we were told "not to do it again".  b: The fact that the shop is selling items individually that clearly stated on the labels, not to be sold individually. Presumably these were from multipacks. I believe this is illegal, because the packaging does not display the ingredients, something that Caravan Club might like to look into. Other than that a very good site to stay at.

Favourite site so far

We really loved this site. It is not too large but has everything you need. It is very peaceful; the location is lovely. It is perfect for visiting the Cotswolds. It just felt very calm and relaxed. It is situated opposite the Cotswolds Wildlife Park and you can buy discounted tickets at the site and just walk over, which we did and had a thoroughly enjoyable day. It was also wonderful at night listening to the sounds of peacocks in the distance; the dawn chorus in the morning from all the birds 'on site' was also fantastic. We will definitely return.

Burford Break

This site is easy to get to with the route being mainly good A roads. Facilities are as you would expect from the Caravan Club with clean and modern washroom facilities. We didn't use the TV booster system as we found a perfectly good Freeview reception from the caravan ariel. There are two dog walks; one of which enables the dogs to run free off lead in a safe place. Lots to see and do around the site notably the Cotswold Wildlife Park, discounted entrance fee can be arranged with the wardens. Once the park is closed for the day and everywhere is peaceful you can hear the wolves and monkeys. Close to the site is the attraction Crocodiles of the World and is well worth a visit if only to hear the Kookaburra birds laugh. The Nation Trust's Chedworth Roman Villa has incredably preserved mosaic floors, a modern cafe and small shop and is well worth a driving to. Coombe Mill on the way to Oxford is worth calling into for a short visit but Weavers Heritage Centre was a disappointment. A little further away is the Gloucestershire and Warwickshire Railway and Hailes Abbey which together make a nice day out. Near to the site is the huge Burford Garden Centre that serves excellent light lunces and teas. Not to everyones taste the Bus Museum, agian on the way to Oxford, was interesing. The area is full of beautiful Cotswold villages, the most tourist friendly and therefore bussiest is Bourton-on-the-Water with lots of tea shops and a motor museum but it costs to park and 20p to use the public toilets. A really pleasant site with helpful hard working wardens. The site is good for families and was fully booked over the Bank Holiday weekend and even then seemed spacious and inviting.

A week in the Cotswolds

Stayed here for five days at the beginning of month. Site peaceful in the main, although a little road noise on our special pitch. The washroom facilities are second to none, I'm immaculate and warm. far the best we come across. Near a bus route, but very handy for visiting villages and towns, National trust properties all within an hours drive. Great for walkers and dogs. You may find you need an extended electrical hook up on some pitches. Staff very accommodating and friendly. Would certainly book here again.

Very picturesque

We only stayed one night as we were stopping over before travelling further south, but the site was really nice and the local town was lovely.  Would like to visit again as it was very central for visiting other places.

Lovely site

Beautifully laid out campsite, does not feel like a large site, lots of trees. Staff friendly and shower blocks/washing up all very clean. Sorry we were unable to visit Cotswold Wildlife Park as it was walking distance. (weather!) would like to visit again. Unable to walk to pub only one and a half miles but narrow road, no verges and traffic. If you are in a motor-home and like us prefer to leave it on site its difficult to get anywhere without a vehicle.
