First time experience
I’ll begin by saying how great my wife and I found this particular site. We’d only taken delivery of our caravan a few days before travelling from Swindon for a 3 night stay (not the furthest trip ever I appreciate but a marathon for previous non-pullers!).
As well as an introduction to the technicalities involved in setting up our pitch, we were getting used to caravan life for the first time and this was an excellent place to start. Granted we were on a fully serviced pitch, quite deliberately, but we found the site well equipped in all respects and the friendly wardens were especially helpful, empathetic, understanding and knowledgeable to us novices.
We know the area quite well and the wildlife park directly opposite which we’d visited before on numerous family trips was a bonus, with discount tickets available from the site a handy extra. To us, the site had everything you need and more and it was very apparent that the staff take a pride in maintaining the pitches and communal areas.
Standards of hygiene and cleanliness were excellent and spacing/lay out made it easy to navigate, even when pulling a 24 foot ‘trailer’ for the first time.
I’d have no reservation in recommending this site to anyone considering a Cotswold ‘base’ from which to do some exploring. Or as many seem to, merely a place to pitch up, kick back and relax away from life’s trials and tribulations.
Our next trip already booked will be further afield as we gain confidence in the logistics of negotiating our roads but I have no doubt we’ll return again to Burford in the near future and there’s every chance we found the ‘jewel’ at the first time of asking!!
