Inn at night

  • Adults-only campsite at a Shropshire inn on the edge of Bridgnorth
  • Severn Valley Railway five minutes’ drive; Ironbridge Gorge 25 minutes
  • Hardstanding pitches with electricity; pub food and real ale on site
When it’s time to sneak off for an adults-only Shropshire break, make a dash for the family-owned tourer pitches behind 16th-century Halfway House Inn on the outskirts of Bridgnorth, Shropshire. Suitable for most sizes of motorhome, this small caravan park has neatly landscaped pitches on hardstanding, all with electrical hook-ups and their own direct water supply (but none with a connection for toilet waste). With 14 courses under an hour’s drive and numerous fishing spots on the River Severn, Halfway House Inn makes a great base for keen golfers and anglers – and if you’re a real ale lover, all you need to do is nip into the pub for a pint of your favourite brew (the bar is open daily). If you’re intent on self-catering, you can rustle up barbecue suppers on site; although alternatively the pub serves tasty British classics from Thursday to Monday. Facilities-wise, the small on-site toilet block has separate facilities for men and women – all with bags of hot water in the showers – and the loos in the pub are open 24/7 during the main holiday months. There’s also a dedicated washing-up area so you can keep on top of the chores.

What customers say

This adult-only campsite, located behind a traditional 16th-century pub, offers a welcoming atmosphere with friendly staff and good-sized, well-maintained pitches, many with water and electric hook-ups. Visitors frequently praise the excellent food and cosy ambience of the attached pub. While generally clean, some reviews note limited or basic toilet and shower facilities, especially when busy. Noise from nearby kennelled hounds was a recurring issue for some. Proximity to Bridgnorth is a plus.

Liz T.

Electric grass and gravel touring pitch

Liked Facilities were clean, but the site was less than a quarter full. It may not be the same when busy. Lovely to be able to have a raised fire pit.
A nice pint in the pub. Didn't sample the food, as they don't serve every day. A short drive to Bridgenorth, but not much in the immediate locality. Peaceful but constant barking from the fox hound kennels, nearby.

Disliked The poor fox hounds barking.
It could feel crowded, if full.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi Liz

You can't beat a fire when camping!

Unfortunately the hounds are nothing to do with us but we have passed your feedback onto the kennel owners.

Cheers Matt & Team

Becky K.

Electric grass and gravel touring pitch

Liked Lovely adult only site. Great sized pitches, loved that the pitches had its own water supply, electric extension lead was needed as the HU wasnt close on the pitch I was staying on.
Good clean facilities. Lovely meal in the pub that's full of history.
Dog friendly, with lots of dog walks with fantastic views. Would recommend and will definitely stay again. Originally booked 1 night ended up staying 2.

Disliked Nothing!

From the manager: Hi Becky

Disliked Lack if wi fi on site

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi Terry

Thank you for your 10/10 score.

Unfortunately, getting wifi to the pub was a massive challenge in itself, however as soon as Openreach (they are working on it now) get FTTP, we should be in a better position, to offer wifi on the pitches.

Cheers Matt & Team

Liked Small site, very friendly. Toilet block clean, and the pub was nice and traditional.

Disliked Barking from kennels near by, at random times. Throughout the day and night. Ruined the quiet countryside in my opinion.

Local attractions

Start your local explorations in Bridgnorth (five minutes’ drive) on the River Severn. This pretty town was once a busy port, and today has a timber-framed Town Hall dominating the lively market square, a Victorian funicular that joins upper and lower towns, and an 11th-century castle with a tower that has a bigger lean than anything Pisa can offer. Shropshire’s industrial heritage can be seen at Daniels Mill (five minutes), set in a wooded valley with its vast restored waterwheel; there are tours to see the milling process. The viaduct close by carries the steam-driven Severn Valley Railway, which you can join at the station on the outskirts of Bridgnorth (five minutes). Other heritage spots include the restored furnaces and pottery kilns at Ironbridge Gorge Museum (25 minutes), or the recreated streets, steam engines and period shops at the Black Country Living Museum (40 minutes). When all you want is to spend time in nature, there are several fisheries and golf courses within 20 minutes’ drive of the site. Alternatively, head for the Shropshire Hills National Landscape (20 minutes), where you can join Offa’s Dyke Path or climb to the Iron Age hillfort at the top of The Wrekin landmark hill.
