    Quiet at night, but still close to the center - perfect 🙂

    The Miellieur de Thames campsite is very good because it's far from the main road.

    3 Freedom Camp spaces at the very back on the left, no facilities but quiet enough and good if you need a place to sleep. Visited in peak season but still the only ones there overnight.

    Pretty easy to find as the car park of bowling club. Only x3 slots at back, left corner (as you enter) but got there about 5pm and we were only ones all night. Car park lights stay on all night so can be a bit bright.
