Kleiner bewaldeter Parkplatz abseits einer Landstraße. Wir kamen spät an und verbrachten einen Abend mit 2 Vans und hatten eine tolle Nachtruhe und einen kühlen Morgen.

    Flattish car park near a wooded area. Quiet night but a fast road alongside which gets busy from 06:30 ( hence the four stars and not five). Another van with us that night.

    This is good quiet spot to stay for a night. It’s pretty flat, with some uneven spots, but nothing major. It has no facilities, and no bins, so please take your rubbish with you.

    We stayed on a Saturday night in extreme heat. It was lovely having the shady trees to park under and we had a lovely ramble though the woods. It was a busy night however as a lot of local lads turned up later on in their vans. They were very respectful but inevitably it was somewhat noisy, especially as one had a dirt bike he was riding through the woods.

    Arrived at 21:30, left at 07:30. One more van parked up. Quiet night. The odd car passed by for the first hour or so. The cottage mentioned in other reviews appears to have been demolished.

    Great place to stay overnight. Very quiet and plenty of space. Fairly flat ground.

    Gorgeous little spot next to the woods. Reversed in so we could open our back doors into the trees. Spent a few nights here and were alone the whole time. Can hear cars clearly driving past but the road is very quiet.

    Very quiet spot next to a huge wood with plenty of dog walking. Stayed 1 night and only saw 1 other car. Road was noisy but went quiet by 11pm and didn’t bother us. Very good nights sleep.

    Really quiet spot, only one dog walker arrived in the morning. Plenty of space to park back from the road. The cottage next door appears to be unused and undergoing major building works.

    Nice spot, even Surface and very quiet & undisturbed night. The parking area is right next to the road but there was no traffic at night and cars only picked up driving by around 7:30 am again and some dog walkers appeared after 8:30. Don’t drive further down the path as there seems to be someone living there (as of the previous comment; we saw the mailman going down the path).

    Right next a 100% occupied cottage. parked up around 7pm , looked vacant and after reading others comments I reassured myself it was fine. At around 9pm a car drove in and continued past and down the dirt track, 2 mins later the lights went on in the cottage and there was someone inside. I really wanted to move but had already driven 4 and half hours that day, I was too exhausted.

    Stayed here for one night very peaceful. Easy asses to Cotswold way and close to some roman ruins. The road leading up is more than big enough but be careful as people drive far to fast in all weathers. Two cars crashed badly about 200m away up the road so be wary of bad drivers that “know” the road.

    Pleasant spot next to a cottage that doesn't appear to be occupied next to the road in the woods. Quiet at night, a few hikers and dog walkers about in the morning.

    The small cottage is illuminated only by an alarm clock shining through open blinds, nobody there at all when I visited. definatelly the best spot I have found so far, i had a very peaceful nights sleep and a relaxing lie in.

    Quiet but near a building which had some lights on, being respectful is a must.
