PERFECT FOR THE COTSWOLDS

I have just returned from a three night stay at this site and wish I had the time to have stayed longer. Very big pitches spread out with plenty to choose from. As expected the facilities were excellent and the wardens very friendly. With RAF Brize Norton only a few miles away it is hardly surprising that you get low flying aircraft, but this did not prove to be to noisy and finished each day by late afternoon. The nearby village of Burford is a must for a visit with lovely shopping and more places to eat that you could wish for. Parking tip at Burford, on the left side as you enter the village, parking is free and unlimited, whilst on the opposite side it is restricted to 2 hours and is strictly enforced. There is also a large free car park at the bottom of the hill just as you are leaving Burford. Only slight downside was that we use G3 wi-fi (as opposed to club fi-fi) which has no coverage in this area. Very entertaining to hear the wildlife from the park directly opposite, would we return - definitely, this is a great site and perfect for exploring the Cotswolds

Another very pleasant stay

We do like this site. This was our fifth visit and was for four nights to coincide with the RIAT weekend at RAF Fairford as one of us was on the Bloodhound SSC stand at RIAT. The facilities were well up to expectations with friendly wardens, a spotless shower block and will kept grounds. Our only complaint was that the wi-fi not working. This rather spoiled the weekend as we were unable to receive an important email about access to RIAT or to download the local geocaches from the Geocaching website. It was rather annoying, particularly as we had paid for the service. We were also rather disappointed with the chips from the visiting van. Last time we were there the chips were the best that we have ever eaten. This time there was a different firm and the chips were a bit soggy and undercooked. Not the fault of the site, we know.

Great site

We stayed for 5 nights to get away from home for a while. The site is as clean as a new pin and the staff are very friendly and helpful. The shower block was clean and well maintained and central to the site. They have a useful shop and I would recommend the burgers, they were so good. An excellent array of goods and necessary articles. Noisy weekend because of the RIAT at Fairford and the aircraft flying overhead. But not too intrusive and it's only once a year. We only left the site to visit the wildlife park which is opposite and a good tip is to buy your tickets at the site shop before you leave as they are discounted. A great site for all-comers.

Lovely, well kept site

We stayed at this site with our 5 year old grand daughter. the site is very nice and very well kept. the shower and toilet block was immaculate with a dry area for dressing. The bonus was that the shower wasn't on a timer! We enjoyed a lovely day at Cotswold Wildlife Park which is within walking distance of the site. We can recommend the Cotswold Arms - a 5 minute drive from the site on the roundabout. Food was very good.

Well located

I only stayed one night en route to Art in Action. The site seems very well located for exploring the Cotswolds and Oxford areas. Being able to walk over into the Cotswold Wildlife Park is amazing! My pitch was on the road side of the site but I didn't find the noise intrusive - and there were occasional low flights overhead, presumably into RAF Brize Norton, but they stopped as it got dark. The facilities were very tidy and clean and the tourist information was extensive. My only gripe is that the wifi was down. There were notices posted all over the site apologising for the situation, and it was just one of those things. Oh, and the site has beautiful trees - I was parked under a cherry tree and had ripe cherries falling on the roof overnight: much pinging onto the roof and leaving sticky juice trails - and also the local pigeons were pigging out above, with obvious consequences! I'd return to the site for a longer stay another time, without a doubt.

Excellent Site

We recently stayed on this site for 11 nights. The wardens were very helpful and the facilities were always spotless. The pitches were well spaced out. Lots of places to visit nearby and the Wildlife Park was certainly value for money. The bakers shop in Burford was a favourite!!

Perfect pitch.

Burford CC site is beautifully managed and excellently placed. We have just spent ten days here and a wonderful time. The wardens are cheerful and helpful and the facilities are first class. The site is very handy for the Wildlife Park ( and you get a discount on the admission ) and convenient for the A40. The nearby Burford Garden Company provide excellent meals and many a happy hour can be spent just browsing. Burford is a fascinating place and the Park and Ride facility for Oxford makes it easy to spend time there too. If you are not an aircraft enthusiast it would be best to avoid the week of the Fairford Tatoo - we left as it was starting and airplane noise and road traffic was escalating.

Beautiful Burford

Stayed in this Caravan Site for nearly a week at the end of June and found everything from the welcome from the Wardens on arrival to the wonderful weather we had so relaxing. The cleanliness of the site and the toilet block were excellent. Great site for touring Oxfordshire and the Cotswolds.

Beautiful Burford

Having just spent 3 days at Burford just wanted to share our experience. Lovely clean and tidy site, nothing too much trouble for either wardens or assistant wardens who we learnt were both in their first year. The site was a short distance from Burford itself and that only became a problem if, like us, we were in a large motorhome not suited for such towns however the peacefulness of the site along with the occasional animal noises from the nearby Wildlife Park more than made up for it. Well done and thank you to all, keep up the good work.
