Claustrophobia in the Cotswolds
Typically excellent welcoming staff (with one patronising male exception) could not compensate for ultrasmall pitches, poor drainage and generally poor ambience created by sardine packing. Siting of facilities inconvenient (water and waste disposal) and placing motor home waste water disposal point at a t-junction was unfathomable. Overall site had a tired feeling. This was far from a typical CC site which should rethink site to provide much better space allocation and invest in facilities. West Ayton Scarborough site it is not. It is probably a valuable cash cow short term but medium long term will cause disillusionment and members will vote with their jockey wheels.
one of our favourite sites.
Like other reviewers here we try to come here often as we only live a few miles away in Banbury.
We had a lovely weekend here despite frequent showers ( some very heavy).Did think it odd that a motorhome was let onto a grass pitch when it was so wet. Still five of us managed to push it off again.Will undoubtedly return often to this great site.

Another first rate stay at Morton
2nd time we've been this year, and whilst the British weather did its best to damped our spirits. We had a really enjoyable time.
The site well maintained, and the facilities are well maintained and clean. The wardens are just wonderful. Very helpful and pleasant.
Only minor issues were, at times the water in the washing areas was not as hot as I'd like.
My daughter who was also staying in her van was shouted at by a senior member of the community about bringing our granddaughter into the toilets ( she's two and toilet trained ) Saying children shouldn't be allowed in the toilet block and should be confined to one area of the site. What an idiot. The site is ideal for children. Good play area and child washing facilities
The pitches near the road side can be noisy, and at weekends the site gets very busy. But overall this is a gem of site
Fantastic again
Just returned after spending 5 days here for the 2nd time,this is our favourite site we have been to yet,and will be returning again next year,site is spotless,staff are very friendly and there is a very relaxed attitude on the site,moreton in marsh is a 10 minute walk away from site and has everything you would need,shops,pubs etc,Thanks again for a very pleasant stay.
Disappointing for us!
We tend to agree with Alfiesmom! The Pitches seem very small. By the time we parked our 7.5m caravan, then a porch awning there was very little room to park our Insignia which ended up only just on the pitch in front of our outfit.Therefore our view was our car! The pitches are not really suitable for todays size caravans and cars The only pitch available was near a noisy road where people race along at max speed, especially the motorbikes! The staff were lovely and friendly and the site was a short walk away from the lovely Cotswold village, Moreton- in -Marsh. We wont be returning until the pitches are improved which I hope the Caravan club take on board these comments, although as it is a very busy, popular site I'm not sure they would feel the need to do this.
Chose the wrong pitch
Last time we visited this site was about 13 years ago. Site is only 40mins from home, so ideal to have a break in between 10 hospital appointments over 12 weeks for my husband, who needed a much needed break. Unfortunately for us we chose the wrong pitch as it rained every day and night heavily off and on all week. The inside rear of our awning flooded every day, it did drain when rain stopped but as soon as rain started again it flooded. We noticed many pitches were also very wet. We will not be returning as we feel pitches need attention, such as more gravel to make them higher and more level. We felt this well need break was more of an endurance exercise, which we didn't need. Wardens were really friendly, very clean facilities, and very easy, level walk into a lovely market town with lovely shops and places to eat, the Black Bear Inn is very reasonably priced for food of good standard and portions. Would return if caravan club choose to spend some money on much needed attention to excessive wet pitches. We also found pitches were narrow and cars had to be parked across the front of the pitches which made it look more like a car park, which is a shame as the site has plenty of room to make improvements.
Wet Week
My wife and I have just had a perfect holiday at Moreton-in-Marsh. My wife is partially disabled so a flat pitch near the toilet block is preferred. All the staff were excellent and site immaculate. I don't know how they do it as the site seemed full all the time.
Keep up the good work. We will be back hopefully on a dryer week.
