With a strong emphasis on conservation around the estate, there is plenty of wildlife to observe, from ground nesting birds to deer. You only have to step outside of the door at College Farm Cottage and you are right in the heart of unspoilt countryside, with bridle paths and walking routes running alongside the farmyard.

To name a few; Blenheim Palace, Buscot Park, Friar’s Court, Kelmscott Manor. Or visit one of our local villages, Bampton, where many scenes of Downton Abbey were filmed. The Cotswolds is dripping in history, from ancient churches and barns, to Roman ruins and gothic monasteries, there is a wealth of activity on your doorstep. If the great outdoors is your thing, you are spoilt for choice with wonderful walking and cycling opportunities. The Cotswold's Way is close by and boasts over 100 miles of trails through picturesque villages and ancient woodland. You also have the river Thames just a couple of miles away. If all that activity sounds like hard work, just kick off your shoes and spend the day lounging by the fire pit toasting marshmallows enjoying the beautiful countryside or wander down to the local pub or cozy up next to the log burner. The Cotswolds is a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and you will be staying in the heart of this wonderful area. If the ‘Camp’ is booked for the dates you are looking for, please look at our other cabins - 'Rectory Farm Retreat' and 'Rectory Farm Hideaway. All set in a similar setting as the Camp but with the addition of a hot tub!
