A small family run site in Weston-on-the Green village located with a local pub 5 minutes walk away and on site cafe. The site also has newly refurbished toilet and shower facilities. Amazing location to access Oxford city and easy access to M40 (Junction 9).
Good things await for those who grab a berth at Weston Caravan and Campsite, in the Oxfordshire village of Weston-on-the-Green. For starters, space seekers should be pleased to see that there’s plenty of breathing room around this former dairy farm – excellent news for kids or dogs that need a bit of haring-about time after being cooped up in the car. Depending on where you’ve plonked down you may find that your nearest neighbours are the resident beef cattle, sheep or horses; it’s worth keeping your eyes open for sightings of the hedgehogs that often scuttle about the place too. Perhaps most crucially for those whose stomachs dictate a site’s success is the presence of a café that serves up a tempting range of freshly cooked goodies: breakfasts (no rush – they’re served all day), salads, cakes and coffees, plus cheeses, pies and the like to take away. And the crème de la crème – literally: homemade ice cream in up to 16 (yes, a lipsmacking 16) different flavours. Evening appetites can be sated with a barbecue out on the field, or trotting off to the local pub five minutes’ walk away. The site added a new toilet and shower block in 2018. And how to get to this little slice of rural loveliness? The village is just a few minutes’ drive from the A34 and Junction 9 of the M40, making it both a useful stopover on cross-country voyages and a handy spot for Oxfordshire breaks (perhaps taking in Oxford, Blenheim Palace or bagging bargains in Bicester).

Spacious grass pitches in the green Essex countryside
A 15-minute drive to Chelmsford; 40 minutes to Audley End
Tractor rides on site; firepits provided for campfires. Rural walks,
How about proper farm activities like tractor rides (ask site staff for details)?
The place to find all this is The Meadow at Waples Mill, an Essex farm site between Chelmsford and Dunmow (and about 15 minutes’ drive from both). This family-friendly site is handy for walks on the Essex Way and other local footpaths, and tractor and trailer rides around the farm are organised on alternate days to give guests a glimpse into agricultural life.
Activities complete for the day, it's time to chill out, and that should be easy here – all pitches have access to toilets and hot showers in a trailer close by, and firepits are provided so you can have a safe campfire (with wood available to buy on site and a great farm shop 10 minutes’ drive away for fireside snacks).
Pitches themselves are large (please note only one tent per pitch is allowed), well kept and well spaced within a meadow that backs onto the River Roding. Dogs are welcome, and there are plenty of places to take them for a walk nearby.
London folk looking for a quick escape to the countryside, this is a place to bear in mind – it’s only about an hour and quarter by road from the city.

We loved staying at Rolling Fields. The tent was well equipped (kettle, toaster, fridge, three electrical sockets) and thoughtfully laid out, with proper (full sized) beds - one double and a single day bed. It was a home away from home. The play area was an instant success, with climbing frame and trampoline. The play tent was particularly admired.
The site was quiet, just is and people staying in the shepherd's hut, which was perfect.
The private bathroom was very welcome and elevated the glamping experience to new levels.
Each tent has a fire pit with two chairs and a sofa. We cooked on the 'Fire and Dine' fire pit and toasted marshmallows from the embers.
Sitting under the stars around a low fire made for a perfect stay.
I can't fault the place. It was a really great experience. We brought ourselves, clothes, food and torches - everything else we needed was provided.
We will be returning.

It was a lovely campsite, we set up our tent in the woods slightly outside of where we were meant to as there wasn't enough clearing for our huge tent in the main woods. Where we ended up staying was perfect for our needs. Jon was a lovely host, and gave us enough freedom to do our thing. The only negative, if you can call it that, was the facilities could do with a bit cleaning. I think the main camping forest could do with a bit of clearing of weeds/bushes which don't allow you to set up bigger tents. There's no running water and It's a long walk to the car, so just be prepared for that. All in all a great stay with the kids, nice and quiet. We would stay here again!

Weekend Trip to Little Fleece at Folly Farm
We had a wonderful and relaxing break at Little Fleece. It had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, with thoughtful touches throughout. We especially enjoyed long soaks in the hot tub and walks in the beautiful surrounding countryside.
The location was very peaceful, making it the perfect place to unwind and just chill out. The hosts were friendly, helpful and excellent at communicating before and during our stay.
Highly recommended for anyone looking for a tranquil countryside retreat.

Weekend Trip to Little Fleece at Folly Farm
We had a wonderful weekends stay at Little Fleece at Folly Farm. We were very impressed with the amenities in the very well thought out shepherd’s hut. We had everything we needed and more. The welcome pack and homemade s toiletries were also a pleasant addition, especially the shortbread :). The hosts were very welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed, even offering lifts to the local village however we enjoyed the walk through the fields. A highlight was being shown around the farm and even seeing a lamb being born!! We used the pizza oven one evening which had easy to follow instructions and fire wood available to fuel and ate at the local pub, the harrow, the another night which we rate highly for food and hospitality. All in all a great stay and would highly recommend.

Great experience. Easy to find, directions were clear. Very hospitable hosts, it was always easy to find someone if we had any queries. Busy with lots of families but still big enough that we could have a quiet peaceful pitch (staying as a couple, no kids/pets). Facilities were clean and great to use. Would stay again.

My 5 year old and I had a great time camping at The Barn KT9. Getting there and setting up was easy, with clear directions. The nearby cafe, woods, and pub were easy walks away. The site was quiet late at night, and having our own firepit and BBQ was a real bonus, as well as real flushing loos. Would recommend as an easily accessible (from London) campsite. Could do with slightly better ground underfoot for walking and running around.

Superb little shepherd's hut with lovely, thoughtful hosts. They have considered every detail and are attentive, while still giving you plenty of space. Easy-to-use outdoor tub, walking distance to a lovely community boozer and easy access to the ridgeway national trail for 'big sky' views and all your hike/bike/run needs. Plus lambs in the fields in springtime! Strong recommendation, would return in a heartbeat.

Weekend Trip to Swan Island Glamping and Camping
We stayed in the Swan and Mallard Pods and the accommodation was perfect in a beautiful setting. They were super cosy with electricity, an en-suite and plenty of utensils. There is Ye Olde Swan nearby, which has just recently reopened and is ideal for pub grub and a drink. Adenira welcomed us and was so helpful and friendly.. We would definitely recommend this little gem of a setting on the banks of the River Thames.
