Note: This review was left while under different management

A very nice site, plenty of walks around the lake. Liked watching the water sports, and the club house is a great improvement on the previous one. The only complaint I have is that the toilet blocks were only cleaned once during a week long stay.

Property manager response (27 Jun 2011)

Our toilet/shower blocks are cleaned on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday & Sunday in low season and daily in high season with a double clean on Saturday and Sunday at bank holiday weekends so we are extremely concerned that you believe that they were only cleaned once unless, of course, you arrived on a Monday and left again on Friday. We are always happy to respond to any questions or queries at the time and to explain how we operate. We do hope that you will visit us again. Kind regards.

Hardwick Park

Fantastic camp site with lovely and welcoming staff. Facilities are well maintained and the site is very clean. Could be improved by having a playground as well as the jungle gym.

Hardwick Park

Family weekend camping.
Great place for either visiting Oxford and surrounding areas or an active stay using the watersports on site.
Friendly staff and clean facilities.
We stayed August bank holiday and the site still felt spacious.
The boat shed is lively if you want music and drinks.
It could do with another shower/toilet block.
Lake sports are great for kids and adults.
