How can the club continue to run this site ?Put on roadway ,all of which are subsiding,no motorhome point,Toilet block very old and dated.toilets that don't flush properly.water from showers all over the place.chipped sinks,leaky taps.small fan heater that didn't do much good.open air washing up and best of all toilet emptying 3foot high !!
only good thing is location.not worth the cost.

Met by the warden, who was very friendly to us,as were all the staff. We were shown to our pitch, the warden even placed our levelling wedges for us. The toilet block is old but serviceable, the water was hot and the area cleaned regularly. A great site for visiting a beautiful university city. Some noise at night from the nearby dairy, but nothing major.

We arrived a little early,11am. There is no resting area and we were made to feel very unwelcome & uncomfortable by the warden. Noise levels from dairy were loud but we were able to sleep, son in awning with ear plugs and he slept quite well. Showers dated but very clean and warm. Would benifit from some rubber matting to stand on when drying. Warden made a point of telling us when walking our little dog, he prefered us to exercise him off site, but it was fine for them to exercise their 2 dogs on site. Site at back of great outdoors and we went sailing past the narrow drive at the side then took a right at lights, no where to turn with a van. wished we had gone left, island at end of road. sods law. Assistant wardens had a smile for you and a good morning, forget the others. We will avoid sites with the same wardens not very welcoming at all. No play area for children. Not a very secure site we had an issue with suspected thiefs while taking a shower and they think you dont see them hanging over the top of side panel where you hang your clothes. It unsettled me for the rest of the week. Would not use again or reccommend prefered Walton on Themes

The actual pitching area's are well maintained and the wardens very helpfull
The showers are an absolute disgrace with water running from one cubicle to the next you are trying to get dressed in a 1/4" of someone elses water you are provided with an up turned waste bin to put your toilet things etc on which if they fall off get soaked in water.
The wardens do their best but are fighting an up hill battle

A must visit site on the edge of Oxford city centre. Park & Ride 300 yards from site & a few minutes ride into town. The grassed pitches are well maintained & level. The shower blocks are a little dated but clean and more than adequate. We did the Inspector Morse pub crawl over our 5 days and found it extremely enjoyable. The Chequers (High St), Bear Inn (Alfred Lane) and Turf Street Bar (down very narrow lane)stand out. Meditteranean Fish Bar 1/4 mile from site is good value (got fresh chicken from him to cook on site). Great river walk to 'Head of the River' pub. Good food at a reasonable price but beer a tad expensive. Great atmosphere though. Will definitely return.

Easy to find, friendly welcome and facilities were clean. Ideal for visiting Oxford city footpath route into town about 1.5 miles. Wardens do their best.
However, this site does not reflect the club in a very good light. The facilities are very dated, (porcelain in sinks worn down to a grey colour, etc.). No Motorhome dump facility. Fencing round pitches looks ramshakle. In desperate need of a facelift.

This was a great surprise as we expected it to be noisy. It was not. never heard the dairy, or recycling plant. Trains....only in the background. So easy to get to Oxford and easy to visit our friends in Nort Oxford. A really friendly welcome and all the staff were helpful and great fun. Site is very clean. The only adverse comment is that the facilities need an urgent update. The showers are not really up to standard and there was only one hand dryer and no hair dryer in the ladies. However we loved it and will definitely be back next year. Thanks for finding my keys and advertising the fact on a notice board!!It was also great to meet so many people from other countries on the site.
Thanks for a great time.

A gem of a site within walking distance of Oxford centre. Was a little concerned reading the negative comments before we arrived however they were totally unfounded.
We were allocated a lovely big pitch which was not particularly noisy especially not through the night. There was a little noise from trains during rush hour and some distant noise from cars however it is a city centre site and some noise is to be expected. We never heard any noise coming from the adjacent dairy as so many people had complained about. The sound of birdsong was more noticable and we were visited by squirrels at breakfast!
A pleasant 40 minute walk along the canal path of the Thames takes you right into the city centre.
Facilities on the site were a little dated however the showers were immaculately clean and working perfectly. The staff were very welcoming and helpful.
Go outdoors superstore is situated immediately in front of the site should you need any camping supplies.
I would definately recommend the site to anyone and please don't be put off by the negative comments.

This site is very noisy, but if you like planes, a main road, trains and the noise of a dairy ALL NIGHT you will be well away. pitches were very tight but there has to be a minuimum of 6 metres so there was a man (presumably the site manager) measuring how far it was between each pitch every hour of the day! very good access into oxford its self though,by bus car or walking all though there are a lot of bikes. there is a park next door to the site with a little place where you can take your dog, but it (unfortunatly) does not tire out spaniels!!! the park has a play park on it suitable for 4-12 years. it also has a court for playing tennis etc.

Be warned anybody thinking about pitching a tent (no electric) that there is horrendous noise ALL NIGHT/DAY long from the working Dairy adjacent to the site. We found this extremely disturbing.The C&CC does not address this problem at all and they certainly do not tell you about it. C&CC state that Oxford is a noisy site due to it being a city location, but road noise & the railway line is nothing more than a whisper compared to the constant generator noise, air brakes & 40 ft lorries with reversing noise coming from the dairy.

Generally a flat site, with the exception of a few bumps and hillocks on the tent field. Great for access to Oxford as right by Park and ride. Staff friendly and well stocked shop.
Toilet block was clean but old - several years ago it was supposed to have been upgraded.. it still hasn't been. It's a shame the chemical loo disposal was right by the washing up. Great park next door for kids.Staff let tent people access the loos during cleaning which is really kind.
No baby change facilities.
The main problem about the site is it is very unfortunately right next to a dairy and train track so especially on the tent field you hear the sound of generators and trains all night.- take ear plugs.

Well laid out with great links to the city centre or London. Site is well laid out its let down mainly by the worlds worst toilet block you almost share showers with others it washes in from the other showers totally disgusting and they ask you to mop when you leave the shower which is pointless as they fill up with other peoples shower water then there's the complete lack of a disabled toilet or showers there are 6or7 showers and no hair driers yet twelve sinks and only one hand drier but loads of toilets it doesn't take much to figure out ten toilet cubicles requers more than one drier and I'm told these showers were recently refurbished by who I ask someone tied up and blindfolded. There is still the 10a power at only a few pitches who these days goes without power or the lack of an emptying point for the ten campervans on site or the waste water drain a foot of the floor and its inbetween the chemical toilet emptying point and the dishwashing health and safety I think bypassed this place.

This site is very convenient for Oxford city centre. With frequent public transport to and from Canning Crescent, just over the road from the site entrance. There is bike hire available from a chap who delivers your bike to the site. Ten pounds for the first day and three pounds thereafter. We cycled on the Thames into the centre. Locked the bikes up with supplied locks and went back after. The cycle up to The Trout Inn at Godston lock is lovely. The site is very clean and facilities are adequate. The wardens are friendly people. There is noise at night from the dairy and early morning from the recycling plant but this is the only bad point about this well run site.

Had to wait quite a while on arrival to get shown to our pitch, but staff were friendly and helpful.
There was a bit of noise from the train line but didnt bother us in our campervan, but may be an issue to tent users.
Site was a nice walk to the city and only £7 in a taxi back. Found facilities clean although a little dated, grass pitches were clan and decent amount of grass.
Only bad points i could say is there is only 1 shower/toilet block that is closed between 10:30 and 12:00 each day. No alternative is available. No soap and a broken drier in ladies.
I would return if i wanted to spend more time in Oxford.

I was in a camper van so have some of the problems of people in tents as sleeping in the roof space leaves you open to noise problems and with this site I would recommend ear plugs but it is a town site. It is very convenient for Oxford and meant that I could leave my Bongo on site and use public transport. Facilities are a little dated but very clean. And two nights cost me less than £10.00, without hook-up.

The wardens at Oxford were fantastic. Our unit and awning was larger than they'd anticipated, so they let us decide which way round we wanted to pitch it.
Public transport in Oxford is a dream, the bus stop is outside the site, and you don't have to wait long for a bus. We also bought a 48 hr sightseeing bus tour ticket and made full use of it over 3 days.
There's a lovely walk into the centre along the river, a regatta was taking place when we visited, great fun to watch.
Particularly enjoyed having a drink in the 'Head of the River'. It's location is superb, as it's name suggests.
Can't wait to visit again!

Tried to book this this site for a mixed group of 6 friends (all 50 something) who are canoeing down the Thames. Spoke to first lady who said no problem, call back with names and tent sizes. Phoned back and was told quite abruptly that they don't take groups. I tried to explain that the other lady had said it was OK but all the second lady would say was "we don't take groups". I wouldn't call site a "friendly" site!

This site is very convenient to the city especially with the Park and Ride service right opposite and very frequent.
It can be a bit noisy (road and rail noise) but it didn't stop us sleeping!
However, the site is desperately in need of an update, especially the toilet block where shower water runs all over the place!
The wardens do their best but it is up to the Club to take some urgent action before more complaints are raised.

Our first visit to Oxford ever and this is a great little hideaway site within a town/city situation. Very easy to travel to/find and as it is opposite the Redbridge park & ride allows very easy access to the city centre - buses have access for wheelchairs and room for 1 per double decker bus at very cheap rates. Very helpfull site staff but what a pity the toilet block is so dated whilst being kept nice and clean. I would expect better quality toilet/washing facilities from a club site!! Yes there is night noise but when you are within striking distance of the city centre, the main railway line and the ring road what can you expect.

Despite being very convenient for getting into Oxford we couldn't recomend the site for tent users because of the noise. We expected some traffic noise but we weren't prepared for the racket from the dairy. The tent pitches are located less than 100 metres from the dairy which is hidden behind a screen of bushes. At night there is a constant hum from the cooling units but this is as nothing compared to when operations start before 03:00. Revving of diesel engines, crashing of milk crates and bottles, men shouting, air brakes and air horns until sometime after 06:00. We didn't get a wink of sleep. Didn't receive a very sympathetic reponse when we complained to the park staff. Customers really ought to be told about this at the point of booking. The web-site doesn't make it clear just how noisy it is and this ought to be corrected.

We recently stayed at the Oxford site but would not recommend this site, which is a shame because the site is nice and the Managers were lovely and Oxford is well worth a visit but we had our car broken into, along with another vehicle. We have since found out this has happened before and in fact the Police had just arrived to another incident as we were leaving. The Club needs to take the security of its members more seriously at Oxford and install CCTV, a more substantial barrier and a large perimeter fence. Our daughter certainly didn't feel safe on site.

It seems perverse that the tents (with no sound insulation) are put nearest the noise. Apart from the railway mainline, and the A34, the real problem is that it is next to a milk depot, where milk floats are loaded in the early hours. The tents are on that side. Sitting in a friend's caravan a bit further away, it was not a problem. The only time the recycling place was a problem was when they had a problem with a skip and kept banging it up and down - at about 7am.
The only way to sleep in a tent is with quality ear plugs.
The toilet block is very tired, but needs immediate maint as well. The basin waste pipes have gaffer tape wrapped round them - which has been painted nicely.
I paid for 3 nights, but left after 2. Blissful sleep in the peace of my house.
Should the C & CC have a site in such a dud location?

A very convenient site for access into Oxford. The Park & Ride is adjacent and there are plenty of buses on the main road next to the site. Also cycle paths take you from the site into Oxford in 10 minutes or you can stroll into town in under 40 minutes. As with all city sites, this one can be noisy at times with a train line next to the site and a recycling site opposite but don't let that put you off, as the benefits of a city location far outweigh these negative aspects. Access to the site can be problematic at the weekends due to the large camping superstore to the front of the site, and you may occasionally get queues of caravans building up, especially on busy Bank Holiday Saturdays. However, having a camping superstore so readily available can be very handy, especially if you've left home without a vital piece of equipment or if something breaks whilst on site. If you expect luxury showers and heated toilet blocks then this is not the site for you. Although kept spotlessly clean & tidy by the hard-working staff, the outdated facilities are in desperate need of a major refurbishment. The temperature of the water in the showers is pre-set and can't be adjusted and the shower floor slopes in such a way that drainage is a problem. This, together with a lack of heating and poor facilities for disabled people may put some people off, which would be a real shame. Come on Club Directors, recognise the value of this site to ordinary members and invest in a toilet block refurb for this gem of a site, fit for the 21st century.

The amenities block although old is spotless and lovely hot showers. The wardens all 4 of them are very cheerful helpful and very friendly always around the site keeping it tidy. We had lovely hot weather and enjoyed interesting trips to Oxford on the park and ride which is opposite the site.

This was our first visit to the Oxford site, we were greeted well by the friendly staff and we were shown to our tent pitch which was in a corner of the site with other tents. The site looked clean and tidy and the staff explained everything we needed to know well.
The first night we stayed we managed to get very little sleep as the noise from the Redbridge Recycling Centre was terrible. We understood it is a town centre site and there would be noise but hearing wagons pulling up every 15 minutes and reversing less than 30 meters away from your tent makes it difficult to get any proper sleep.
Our second night was better with only a little disturbance from the train line and recycling centre.
Overall I think the site is very nice with friendly and helpful staff and their facilities were of a good clean standard however the noise spoils it.
I would suggest this site is more suited to members in caravans / motorhomes who can maybe shut out some of the noise and it is for this reason we will not be returning.

A conveniently placed site on the outskirts of Oxford.
The park and ride car park is a stones throw away, while a network of safe cycle routes is available right next to the site. We didn't use the car at all once parked. We cycled as far as Woodstock to the north and visited the Didcot railway centre to the south using the bikes.
The site staff were great, and the facilities kept spotless, but the showers are from a previous era and could do with being modernised.
There is a main railway line adjacent to the site, which is busy during the day, but did not keep us awake at night. Considering that the site is in an urban setting it is reasonably peaceful - We saw red kites flying above on a number of occasions.
A very useful site if you want to visit Oxford!

The site was a great surprise. A few hundred yards away the traffic is very heavy and then suddenly you are in a beautiful green peaceful oasis. Noisy? We had no problem sleeping - the birds were the noisiest thing there.
The facilities may be dated but were in good repair and were kept immaculately clean. (Do we really need to replace facilities just because they are getting old when they work perfectly well? Seems wasteful to me.)
Facilities are situated in the centre of the site so no-one has far to take waste water etc.

Oxford is our favourite city but we would never use this site again. Getting a good nights sleep is almost impossible due to a railway line and a dairy discribution depot which are both close by.

All references to this site show HS but there are NO hardstandings at all, infact it is all grass and mostly very unlevel, consequently very muddy in places. As this is a year round site we expected much better pitches. The toilet/shower facilities are very outdated, a hard job for the staff to maintain, but they were very clean. The only waste water point being at the toilet block meant a long walk from many pitches. Convenient site for sightseeing in Oxford.
