  • Rural site in the grounds of a B&B 10 minutes' drive from Brackley
  • Silverstone, Blenheim Palace and Oxford within a 45-minute drive
  • Pitches mown into wild grass with picnic tables and firepits
If you’re looking to take a break with a little group of your best pals or a family gang, the setup at Walltree House Camping may well suit you rather well. Circular pitches here are mown into the long wild grass in clusters of three, with each cluster provided with a shared picnic table and firepit for free use (just the spot for quiet morning coffees or sociable evenings toasting marshmallows while the sun sets…) All of this is in the grounds of a smart B&B in a traditional stone farmhouse, out in the Northamptonshire countryside 10 minutes’ drive from Brackley. Views all around are of open countryside, and it’s easy to get out for more rural exploring – you can pretty much venture straight from your tent out onto public footpaths leading through field and woods to classic villages and country pubs. Get in the driving seat instead and all sorts of day trips can be on the menu, including outings to Blenheim Palace, Silverstone and Stratford-upon-Avon. More intrepid visitors can sate their appetite for adventure at Hinton Airfield with skydiving, gliding and flying days, or challenge travelling companions at the paintballing centre – both are pretty much next door. Rather more relaxing times in mind? Take a wander around the grounds to look out for remnants of World War II outbuildings and air-raid shelters, or simply settle down to watch the gliders overhead. Amenities on site are simple but well thought out: the central block has hot showers, a washing-up area, electric points for gadget charging and a freezer to keep ice packs chilled.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked: Lovely, peaceful site. Every group of 3 pitches had a firepit which was a nice touch. Toilets and showers were plenty, great and clean. Was fun watching ppl skydive from the airfield next to site.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked: Love the mowed grass pitches nestled in the long grass. It makes the pitches private and just looks amazing. The grass is perfect for pitching and mostly very level which is fantastic. The toilets were always clean, and well stocked. The showers are a very neat touch and a great extra for the site. The wash up facility had warm water and electrical points should it be required for charging phones. The drop off area and parking lot being available removes the sound of opening and closing of car doors continuously which is a common thing at other sites. Great idea this.

Disliked: No so much a dislike but maybe more a would be nice to have is a play area for the little ones, this would be a very neat touch.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked: We had a wonderful time at Walltree House, despite the rain! The campsite was lovely and clean. The shower and toilet facilities were excellent. The location was perfectly quiet and great entertainment from the airfield. We explored the local area by walking but some maps to take with us would have been a good idea! We are looking froward to returning again soon!

Local attractions

To explore a bit more of rural life, take a trip to the Waterfowl Sanctuary & Children’s Farm (25 minutes’ drive), where kids can look out for wildlife or settle in for some ‘cuddle time’ with small farm animals. If you’re more into investigating the dwellings of the smart set, plan outings to the likes of Stowe (20 minutes), Blenheim Palace (35 minutes) or the Althorp Estate (45 minutes). All three have some mighty fine architecture to see – and there’s plenty more of that on offer in nearby urban centres like Warwick (half an hour), Stratford-upon-Avon (40 minutes) and Oxford (45 minutes). Something a bit different? Perhaps you might like to feel the speed at Silverstone’s racing circuit (20 minutes) or give your credit card a workout in the designer outlets at Bicester Village (25 minutes).
