Good base for touring - a pleasant week
Spent seven nights on this site. While we were there it was full yet quiet and peaceful. Surrounded by trees; some pitches have partial or full shade.
Can do 3 or 4 walks from site if you are prepared to do approximately 20 minutes on road walking before reaching footpath/tracks. Traffic can be frequent and fast. Much better to do a short drive, 3 - 7 miles, to one of the nearby pictureque villages and walk from there. Gives much greater variety of walks.
Mobile phones behave strangely. Messages such as No SIM card appear or no internet even when data is turned on. We do not have club WiFi so rely on phone for calls and data connection. Strength of phone signal wildly variable and data connection intermittent.
Occasional aircraft noise from planes leaving/returning to Brize Norton. We didn't find this disturbing.
It is a 2 mile drive to Burford, an ancient market town, here there are independent shops , cafes, hotels and pubs; ancient houses and church. Unfortunately we could not visit the latter as closed due to government Covid restrictions.
The Village Chippy visits the site on Fridays 5 -7pm and Wood Fired Pizza comes on Saturdays.
A good base for getting to know the Cotswolds.
