  • Secluded Herefordshire farm site on the Arrow river near Pembridge
  • A 25-minute drive to Ludlow, and half an hour to Offa’s Dyke
  • Wild camping with shops, pubs and takeaways within five minutes’ drive
A fabulously peaceful place to relax, kick back and watch the world go by, The Leen Caravan and Camping Site is tucked away in leafy north Herefordshire countryside near Leominster. Spacious grass pitches have waterside views, plus an acre for kids to play safely in, and your doggy chums are welcome too (under control) but please always clean up after them. The Leen is a working dairy farm and you’ll get the chance to see the milking herd of Hereford cattle wandering past most days. Just so you know, you may encounter farm traffic at busy times but this should not disrupt your stay – and of course, you’re welcome to wander the different habitats. If you are lucky enough, you may get to spot the resident kingfisher or a passing otter on the Arrow river. The site is only a five-minute drive from the centre of the medieval half-timbered village of Pembridge, where there are a couple of foodie pubs, stores and a café with a takeaway service. Bigger shops should be left for Leominster (15 minutes’ drive), which has supermarkets, a raft of dining options and a leisure centre with a pool for any rainy days. Simple amenities back at site include grass pitches with electric hook-ups, water taps dotted around the site, and a toilet with hand-washing facilities and a washing-up area (cold water only) a 100-metre walk from the camping field.

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked: A lovely quiet, well kept site. All the information you need is to hand. The toilet is clean and well stocked with toilet roll, paper towels and hand soap. There is a chemical loo disposal area and bins for rubbish and recycling. Electric hook ups and water taps generously spaced around an even field. We loved our stay

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked: Quiet, pleasant, rural surroundings.

Disliked: Long grass (littered with uncollected cut grass) which is OK when dry but awful when damp. Rustic single toilet - clean but only one or two leagues above Glastonbury Festival standards. The passive/aggressive manner I was shouted at, across a field, after forgetting to cover the chemical waste sluice. 😬

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Sadly the weather has been against us but the site was mown (by me!) on Thursday before the busy bank holiday influx of caravans and campers….. even if the sun had dried the grass out most people don’t want to hear 2 hours of mowing on their break - or then wet cut grass! If you think passive aggressive ‘excuse me can you put the lid back on the chemical waste’ was what you heard from me they so be it but with many children on site leaving the lid off a chemical waste is not the most sensible thing to do!! You nodded to me as you realised you had been spotted leaving it so. Toilet as stated in description. Most caravans have toilets in and so little use is generally required of our off site toilet.

Peaceful site

Local attractions

Acquaint yourself with the gorgeous half-timbered architecture of local villages like Pembridge (five minutes’ drive) on the Black and White Trail, a 40-mile route that wends its way through north Herefordshire, taking in Lyonshall (10 minutes) and Eardisley (20 minutes). You’ll also find lots of fine timbered buildings in Ludlow (25 minutes) as well as a medieval castle and lots of pubs to have a taste of local ciders. If you’d rather be exploring on foot, Offa’s Dyke Path (half an hour) meanders roughly along the border with Wales. If you venture further into Wales, you can follow paved walking and cycling routes leading around reservoirs in the Elan Valley (50 minutes). Animal-mad kids can greet donkeys and goats at the Small Breeds Farm Park and Owl Centre (15 minutes), or you can (hopefully) wear them out canoeing on the Wye river (55 minutes). If that doesn’t quite do the trick, send them off to search out the madcap follies in Westonbury Mill Water Gardens (10 minutes).
