"A peaceful location on the edge of Chipping Campden and within easy walking distance of the centre.
The site itself is just a field; the only facilities are fresh water supply and chemical toilet disposal; not a problem for us for a couple of nights in a motorhome.
The lady who checked us in was friendly, helpful and very keen to inform us about things to do and places to visit in the area.
Excellent value for money at £10 a night!"
