Tents in one of the dingles

  • Dog-friendly site on 15 acres of Onny Valley countryside
  • River for pond dipping, paddling and fishing
  • Popular pub serving food directly accessible from the site
Pooh! Pooh Sticks, that is – if your kids have never played it, a stay at The Green Caravan Park is the place to teach them the art. A river – the small and shallow River East Onny – runs through it for paddling, pond dipping, the aforementioned Pooh Sticks and fishing: pick up a cheap net at the site shop and keep your little shrimps entertained for hours for mere pennies. Once they’re dried off, there’s on-land nature spotting too, at the area set aside as a nature wilderness, a play area and space galore for bike riding or outdoor games. The Green Caravan Park has several riverside pitches, with others on the park island, in the two dingles, on The Plateau, in the play area field or in a five-acre meadow; electric pitches are in a separate field with both riverside and hardstanding spots. The park covers 15 acres of Onny Valley countryside in a National Landscape between the Long Mynd and Stiperstones Hills: it’s no wonder it’s been called ‘a little gem’ by previous happy campers. Dogs can stretch their paws at the dog walk and exercise area on site (please keep dogs on leads in other areas of the park and clear up after them in all areas). Food is well covered too: the popular family-friendly Inn on the Green serves home-cooked food and is directly accessible from the park (pre-booking comes highly recommended), and there are several country inns in the local area – steak and ale pies at The Crown get particular thumbs up.

Electric grass touring caravan pitch

Liked Spacious pitches and very friendly staff. Warm greeting on arrival and clear instructions for rules and site facilities. A very pleasant caravan site.

Disliked There is no tap at the gray water drain, I like to wash out the waste master before packing it away to travel home, there is a fresh water tap a few yards away but it would be nice to have one by the drain.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Many thanks for your review, we're so pleased you found it a very pleasant caravan site. We take your point about a tap by the grey water drain & in an idea world it would be great to have one but it would be difficult to do this as the drain is within the area where vehicles drive so it would become a hazard. As you mention there is a tap nearby. We look forward to welcoming you back soon.

Excellent site, very clean, wonderful staff, kids entertained.

Electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked Spacious pitches, very clean and tidy. Rachel and John the owners are so lovely & really looked after our family as newbie campers. The play park, swings and pond dipping kept the kids entertained for hours. The camp site had lots of families and kids playing during the day but was quiet at night. The sound of the river Onny was so relaxing. The pub close by ‘the inn on the green’ is definitely worth a visit - although book in advance as they get booked up, food was delicious and staff very accommodating!

Disliked Could maybe do with more bits to buy in the shop - water, milk, camping gear, snacks etc. the nearest shop has very limited opening hours so beyond those hours it is a bit of a jaunt to the nearest co-op.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Many thanks for your review. It's a tricky balance as we don't want to compete with the local shop but you make a very good point. We will most certainly consider this as we suspect if you are thinking this, others are too. We look forward to welcoming you back soon.

Local attractions

Many visitors to The Green Caravan Park come for Shropshire strolls around the calm country lanes and hills, along the Offa’s Dyke path or from nearby village Wentnor. The park is between the Stiperstone Hills and the Long Mynd, which make up the biggest area of heathland in the Shropshire hills: walk the five and a half miles of the Stiperstone Ridge from the Knolls car park for magnificent views towards the Long Mynd. Folk flock to the area for the birdwatching too: keep an eye out for red kites, plovers and buzzards around the Stiperstones, which is a national nature reserve. This is also castle country: Stokesay, Powis, Montgomery, Clun and Ludlow castles are all within easy driving distance. Have a wander around the festival and foodie town of Ludlow after seeing the castle or see the castle, abbey and over 660 listed buildings of medieval town Shrewsbury, both half an hour away. Industrialists will be kept busy at nearby Snailbeach Lead Mine and historic Ironbridge and the Ironbridge Gorge Museums about 15 miles from Shrewsbury: this World Heritage Site site should keep even the urchins happy, especially going back in time to Blists Hill Victorian Town or creeping down the old Tar Tunnel. Closer to your pitch but dating from further away in time, Bury Ditches Iron Age hill fort is between Clun and Bishop's Castle: go on to the latter for more walks, access to the Shropshire Way and the country’s oldest brewery, the Three Tuns. Well-behaved urchins can be rewarded at several family-friendly Shropshire attractions: if they liked Ironbridge they’ll probably be fond of the historic working farm at the Acton Scott estate, featured on the BBC’s Victorian Farm, or getting close to the natives at Telford’s Hoo Farm Animal Kingdom.
