Shotover Country Park Wild Camping

3. Shotover Country Park Wild Camping

25 units · Tents · England
Our 7 acre property is a mixture of woodland and meadows with a fresh water spring and several fruit and nut trees. It is wild and mysterious with amazing sunsets and we are just a stones throw away from Shotover Country Park, which is the real Narnia. C S Lewis lived on the edge of Shotover woods and so we can fairly assume that Shotover is the inspiration for the Narnia trilogy. Shotover Country Park is one of Oxfords best kept secrets and consists of 280 acres of freely accessible woodland and open countryside. It is a paradise for dog walkers, horse riders and cyclists and also has natural sandpits for children to enjoy. We will be offering woodland rides from this location in 2026 as we need to do some fencing work first.

20 units · Tents · Chipping Norton, England
Whether you’re heading to the Cotswolds for early August’s Wilderness Festival at Cornbury Park, the almost-endless walking options or simply a peaceful weekend escape, Charlbury Rise Camping, edging the pretty market town of Charlbury, covers all bases. There’s no fuss – just back-to-basics camping in the middle of lots of Cotswolds action, with the welcome addition of easy parking and rail access too. Bear in mind that this is off-grid camping with simple facilities: grass pitches, portable loos, fresh water and cold-water showers. Starry skies on clear nights and open space to unwind are added bonuses, but please note there is no electricity. Pitch up in the meadow set on a gentle rise, surrounded by ancient hedgerows and farmland, and you’ll wake up to birdsong, the sound of church bells in the distance and views over the rooftops of one of the Cotswolds’ most attractive market towns. From your pitch, wander into Charlbury (10 minutes’ walk) for supplies or a pint at one of the village pubs, discover re-wilding woodland on strolls through Wychwood Forest, or take the short drive to Chipping Norton (15 minutes’ drive) and a certain very well-known farm shop. As well as attending gigs at the Wilderness Festival from your pitch (half an hour’s walk), a stay at Charlbury Rise Camping puts you in pole position for exploring the Cotswolds National Landscape. Historic Burford (20 minutes’ drive), with its combination of mellow-stone cottages and half-timbered houses, is popular for its antiques shops, while Stow-on-the-Wold (half an hour) centres on a vast market square surrounded by a labyrinth of lanes packed with indie boutiques and eateries. See how the other half once lived with a look around the Palladian mansion at Ditchley Park (10 minutes, guided tours by appointment only). Alternatively, spend the day discovering manicured gardens, strolling vast tracts of woodland and touring numerous historical displays at humongous and lavish Blenheim Palace (15 minutes), the birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill. Those of you with a taste for the finer things in life have your pick of Michelin-starred Cotswold restaurants, gourmet pubs and a store filled with organic produce at Daylesford. And let’s not forget the (almost) obligatory visit to Diddly Squat.
