Cost

£60 for 2 nights camping. Includes supplement to cover all incidental expenses (cooking gas, wood, camping chairs etc.); additional £10 supplement for attendees from Meetup. Price based on 2 people sharing pitch. Site has multiple glamping options, shepherd huts, camping pods and cabins.

Activities

We are camping at a very scenic location in the Cotswold Hills. The site is just 1 mile from the historic town of Charlbury and has great views of the Evenlode Valley. We have our own group field and benefit from own washrooms, and fully equipped kitchen / cabin. We will have campfires and barbecues.

Early arrivals on Friday will walk to Charlbury to explore the town including impressive medieval church, manors, inns and the wonderfully preserved Brunel-designed GWR railway station. Fish and chips on village green.

On Saturday we plan a 10-mile linear walk through the Oxfordshire Cotswolds visiting several delightful stone villages on route. We follow part of the River Evenlode; its soft, easy hills and fertile countryside inspired Tolkien's Hobbit Shire. We will explore the villages of Chadlington, Sarsden, Churchill and Kingham. Possible lunch stop at celebrity farm shop. At Kingham we will stop for tea before catching train back to Charlbury. Barbecue and campfires in the evening.

On Sunday we plan to do a walk around the nearby picturesque Cotswold market town of Chipping Norton. The historic town has many outstanding 17th and 18th century stone buildings, impressive church, alms-houses, plus pubs and tea shops.

Booking conditions for HAWOG events

  • If you submit a booking and your request can be met then you are committed to the purchase.
  • It is your responsibility to know or check in advance the total price per person or room.
  • If your request can be met then you'll receive an email from the organiser informing you of the total price, how calculated, and you'll be required to pay within 14 days of the date of the email. It's your responsibility to remember to check and respond to that email.
  • All places purchased are for a single bed in a same sex room exclusive to our group, unless agreed otherwise in writing by the organiser or you have booked a stated, available room. The number of beds in a room will vary.
  • If you cancel you will only get a refund if someone else pays for your place. Until then, you'll be expected to pay any outstanding balance. It's your responsibility to find a replacement, you can do this by emailing our group and informing that you have a place to sell, and letting the event organiser know. The group will sell remaining uncommitted places first before 'returned' places.

If your request cannot be met then you will be informed of this and what possibilities are available. You may then inform the organiser if you want to be added to a waiting list and/or submit another booking which meets one of the possibilities. A waiting list means you get informed soonest if suitable places or rooms become available, it does not commit you to purchasing them but you will need to confirm, and book, in a short period of time if you want them.

Methods of Payment

Whilst most membership, surcharges and events can be paid for online via our PayPal account, there are a few alternatives for attendees and events where online payment via our PayPal account is not possible:

  • Pay electronically direct to our group bank account.
  • Pay in person at a branch of our group's bank.
  • Get someone else to pay online for you.
  • Ask the organiser of events you need to pay for, if they will accept payment direct to them (and they pay group for you).
  • Occasionally, cash and cheques may be accepted at key events and dates.
  • Cash and cheques may be accepted for a small handling charge.

For all of the above, please ensure the Chair, Treasurer or event organiser knows how you will pay. Please email us for more information.
