  • Campsite next to the Severn Valley Railway in Shropshire countryside
  • A 25-minute drive to West Midlands Safari Park; Ironbridge 40 minutes
  • Playground, fairy village and nature pond on site; steam train views
What a spot for vintage train lovers. Wellness Woodlands has a peaceful rural setting in Shropshire, just 15 minutes' drive away from the historic market town of Bridgnorth. And this is where the trains come in — the site has a private woodland walk that'll take you directly to the Severn Valley Railway, where there is a museum and station. Just a little further on, the local pub sells good food and local ales. Round and about on site, there are four wildlife ponds as well as resident geese, chickens and ducks. Set over 20 acres, there are lots of walks to explore amid woodland planted with native trees. You may also get lucky and see buzzards and red kites circling above, or woodpeckers among the trees. Kids are welcomed with open arms here, and they can keep themselves entertained at the play area, find rope swings in the woods or head off to discover the themed fairy village. To keep you, your offspring and any dogs safe, no vehicles are allowed by the pitches. This is an eco-friendly, off-grid campsite (note: off-grid equals no electricity), with no-frills amenities including separate showers and an outdoor sink for washing up. If the weather turns, simply take cover at the HUB communal area. As far as catering goes, buy foodie supplies in Highley (five minutes’ drive) or dodge cooking altogether by eating in the pubs there. Back at base, buy fresh eggs for a breakfast fry-up or spread your bread with honey produced by the resident bees. As this is a quiet site, portable sound systems are not permitted. Please be particularly considerate of others between 10pm and 6am. Please note that the site grounds are not completely even and that cars cannot be parked by the pitches (trolleys are available to help you transport your luggage from the parking area).

What customers say

Wellness Woodlands is a spacious, peaceful campsite praised for its beautiful natural setting and calming atmosphere. Visitors highlight the clean facilities, helpful staff, and ample space for children to play. Its proximity to the Severn Valley Railway and local amenities is also a key advantage. While generally very positive, some minor points mentioned include occasional cobwebs in toilets or limited shower facilities during peak times, and a desire for more amenities for younger children.

Stargazer bell tent (large)

Liked Loved the site and location. The stargazer was perfect for us as a family of 6 with young children and our friends were able to pitch up nearby too. Pizzas on the Friday were fab.

Non-electric grass and earth tent pitch

Liked Lovely setting. Clean, large pitches. Fairy houses and track to the railway are amazing. Could have spent longer exploring.

Disliked Unfortunately there is only one shower and two toilets per block (2 showers and 4 toilets). There are a few other toilets but its the one shower that may cause a queue if it was busy.

Stay here and properly chill out!

COLIN JAMES D.

Non-electric grass and earth tent pitch

Liked What a Gem of a Camp site. I stayed two nights, Sunday to Tuesday, in my tent. It's a very peaceful site. Jess the owner was very helpful. i explored the Severn valley country park by bike. I've been camping for many years but not camped for the last 6. This site has got me back in love with camping again. I'll definitely be back.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Unfortunately, we were unable able to get hold of you and had messaged you too to see if you were coming as the weather was bad that day. Unfortunately you didn't respond so we assumed you weren't on site and hadnt come. The toilets and showers ect are cleaned regular when people are on site, and if we had known you were there it would have been spotless I apologise as we are very proud of our cleanliness.

Non-electric grass and earth tent pitch

Liked We got to explore and see the forest walk and fairy garden this time, no matter how much time i spent in those areas time just ceased to be.

We absolutely love Wellness Woodlands it's going to be my second home lol. Nothing is ever too much if you need assistance or anything in general.

Again such a beautiful area to be in and so so peacefull. Thankyou for having us, hopefully we will see you again soon.

Local attractions

Fans of vintage steam railways are in the right place, with the Severn Valley Railway running by the site. Railway buffs can get up close to historic locomotives at The Engine House Visitor and Education Centre (five minutes’ drive), and explore industrial heritage in the museums at Ironbridge Valley of Innovation (40 minutes). If walking and exploring is what you like to do, combine history with a ramble around the industrial remains at Cleehill (half an hour). For countryside jaunts, head for the woodland trails in Severn Valley Country Park (five minutes’ walk) or stroll along the River Wye at Bewdley (20 minutes’ drive). A day spent at West Midlands Safari Park (25 minutes) is a day enjoying safaris around African animal enclosures and whizzing around on thrill rides in the adventure park. For younger kids, Rays Farm Country Matters (10 minutes) has a sculpture trail with dragons and trolls to track down in the woods.
