The owner of the campervan managed to disconnect some of the gas cylinders, and make the area safe for the crews arriving from Brill Fire Station.
The fire could be seen from the neighbouring M40 and the surrounding area.
Firefighters tackled the blaze using main jets, hose reels and breathing apparatus, but they did not manage to save the campervan.
