Tucked away just 15 minutes from Banbury in the heart of Oxfordshire, Ushercombe Fields is a charming, family-run pop-up site where the focus is all about keeping things thoughtfully low-impact, sustainable, and in tune with nature. This family-friendly spot offers brand-new toilets and handy washing-up facilities – everything you need for a comfortable stay, without losing that back-to-nature feeling.

Just 10 minutes away, Hook Norton Brewery serves up real ales and a cracking full English breakfast. A little further afield Jeremy Clarkson’s infamous pub, The Farmer’s Dog, is a 40-minute drive and a fun stop for fans of the local celebrity scene. Whether you're looking to explore the local area or make new friends among fellow guests, Ushercombe Fields offers a peaceful stay filled with lasting memories. You're welcome to bring your dogs along – there are plenty of scenic walks nearby – and on clear nights, you can unwind beneath a sky full of stars.
