AppId is over the quota
In mid-May we went off to the Caravan Club site Moreton-in-Marsh situated with the Cotswolds countryside. Moreton is a lovely old market town with its main street still being part of the old Fosse Way built by the Romans and for us it's a great weekend venue being just under an hour from home. However with its location, Moreton-In-Marsh is also a good base for a longer stay to explore the wider Cotswold area.
The site itself and its showers, toilet blocks and other facilities are of the usual high Caravan Club standard with 183 pitches, most of which are spacious and hard standing. There is a Motor caravan Service Point, which is always welcomed by us Motor homers, plus a reasonable Wi-Fi network for those who need to keep in touch with the outside world.
There is a large play area which is great with its adventure climbing frame for the children and basketball, and for the 'adults' - boules and a crazy golf course which we played for an hour or so. Don't worry that you do not have the right equipment because you can borrow putters and balls from reception for a small deposit.
Once again, for us one of the biggest selling points of this, or any other caravan site, is that it is within easy walking distance (just 5-10 minutes) to the small market town of Moreton-in-Marsh and public transport is available within a mile with routes to Cheltenham, Banbury or Stratford-upon-Avon to mention a few places. Market day is Tuesday and the town itself is very compact to walk around with a choice of pubs, restaurants, small hotels, bistros and cafes serving food.
Moreton-in-Marsh also has some quaint Cotswold gift shops and speciality food shops to wander around and, for the sports lover, if you are into your cricket on the Saturday why not walk to the far end of Moreton-in-Marsh, near Budgens supermarket, turn left down Batsford road to the lovely little Cricket ground and sit and have a cool drink sitting on one of the benches and watch some cricket to while away your afternoon.
If you are only able to make Moreton-in-Marsh for the weekend, and the site is not fully booked, you could ask at reception if you may be able to arrange a late checkout, which gives you the opportunity to have a Sunday Roast at one of the hotels, have another wander around the shops and then make your way home after a relaxing and enjoyable weekend in the Cotswold countryside.
If you would like to explore Moreton-in-Marsh and the surrounding area why not hire a campervan?
