Abbey Home Farm

Μου άρεσε: Great open space, huge field full of flowers with views over the countryside. Very peaceful and loads of room for the kids to run around. The 30 minute trail around the farm and through the woods was also a hit, especially before bedtime. Toilets and washing up areas were clean.

Μου άρεσε: The 'leave no trace' ethos. Good value for money. Very friendly people in the farm shop when I checked in. Facilities were perfectly adequate, although it wasn't busy when I was there.

Δεν μου άρεσε: The track down to the camping fields. The road noise. The inconsiderate behaviour of the people playing football for 4 hours on Saturday evening (obviously not AHF's fault). Would have preferred the view of rolling hills, but campervanners are put in a long narrow field with hedges.

Μου άρεσε: Peaceful site, rural location with pleasant views of countryside.
Cafe at farm shop is good for morning coffees or breakfasts from 9am.
Recommended walks possible from site using sketch map on board outside shop.
Cold water drinking supply was good.
Budget price.

Δεν μου άρεσε: Composting toilets reached by climbing seven steps, so not handy for less agile or disabled. There is a flushing toilet in farm shop, reached by woodland walk of c. 10 minutes, available 9 till 5.
Gas showers are very open air, so not appealing in colder weather.
Camping area accessed by gates with coded padlock, along uneven track.

Μου άρεσε: Lovely site, lots of slave, beautiful walks through the farm and woodlands. Really friendly, helpful staff and lovely farm shop/cafe on site. Very good value for money. Facilities are very basic but fine for me in a camper-van with own facilities.

Μου άρεσε: Large area to park the van. Level field Plenty of room so not too close to fellow campers.

Δεν μου άρεσε: Would have liked a scoop for the sawdust in the toilets!

Μου άρεσε: We stayed in the campervan field but in a tent. It was nice to have the option as the tent field is a car free zone and our tent is heavy! Although plenty of wheelbarrows are available to move your stuff if you want to enjoy the view in the tent meadow.

We had a very chilled stay even though the field was relatively busy over the Easter weekend

Composting loos were kept clean and were absolutely fine - (just a heads up that loo roll isn't provided which is fine for the price but worth knowing before arrival!)

It's a short walk to the lovely farm shop (prices are as you would expect for a farm shop in the cotswolds)

Fab back to basics camping in a great area!
Definitely would visit again

Μου άρεσε: I went for a solo meditation retreat and it was absolutely spot on. Very secluded and isolated. Literally didn’t see anyone for the three days I was there; I just read, meditated and sat by the fire pit. I had a lot of fun collecting firewood in what felt like my own, private woodland. It was very pleasant getting the log burner going at sunrise, getting the door open, drinking tea, listening to the birds and watching the sheep and horses wake up from bed. I went without electricity and would probably take an oil lamp next time as opposed to just candles; it is quite spooky walking through the woods at night just by candlelight! Left my phone in the car, but plenty of signal there when I turned it on at the end.

Μου άρεσε: Lovely and quiet, with great views (we parked our van near a gap in the hedge with a view over the fields). Great that you can walk to the excellent farm shop and cafe and the staff there were really welcoming and helpful. Showers warm (when they got going) and loved the view of the trees whilst showering. Really near to explore Cirencester. Would definitely stay here again.

Δεν μου άρεσε: Not a dislike as such but a heads up - take your own toilet paper as none provided and a torch is useful when using the toilets.
Also, it isn't clear what you would do to check in after 5pm when the farm shop closes so worth checking that if you are likely to (we just about made it before 5pm).

Μου άρεσε: We really liked our stay. The owner was super helpful and welcoming, and shared some great advice regarding walks in the area. The campsite is nice and quiet, with a lovely view of the countryside. The facilities are good too - situated in the forest, which really adds to the feeling of being out in nature.
