  • CAMC members-only pitches a mile from the centre of Church Stretton
  • Ludlow and Shrewsbury half an hour away by train
  • Carp fishing lake on site; lovely views to Caer Caradoc
Fancy waking up to views of the Shropshire Hills National Landscape, then strolling just a couple of minutes to a nearby fishing lake? Members of the Caravan and Motorhome Club (CAMC) can do just that when they stay at New House Farm Certificated Location, just outside the market town of Church Stretton. Pitches here have lovely views of Caer Caradoc; it’s also pretty easy to get out for a hike on this 459-metre hill, since it’s less than half an hour away on foot. When you stay here, you can also schedule plenty of other Shropshire Hills walks or bike rides, including routes around popular spots like the Stiperstones and Carding Mill Valley. And that fishing? Well, that’s at the large lake on site, which is stocked with carp and open to all guests with the relevant licence. For those who aren’t into fishing, the lake provides an attractive backdrop for picnics, dog walks or just hours of waterside daydreaming… Being just on the edge of Church Stretton makes New House Farm a convenient place to be: the centre of town (for shops, pubs and cafés) is about a mile away, and there’s a railway station for outings to places like Ludlow and Shrewsbury (both about half an hour away). Entirely dedicated to touring guests, the site has got lots of handy features, including a wide turning from the road, large hardstanding and grass pitches, portable toilets, showers, and electric and mains water hookups. Kids are welcome, and there are a couple of large parks a few minutes’ walk away where they can have a good run around.

What customers say

This peaceful site offers stunning views over a fishing lake and surrounding hills, with spacious, level pitches benefiting from water and EHU. It's ideally located for hill walks and a short stroll into Church Stretton. While some found the single toilet/shower facility basic, they were generally clean and powerful, with improvements noted post-review. The site can get busy with fishermen at weekends, but the owners are friendly and helpful.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch (members only)

Liked Ease of access to site, preceded by good comunication from site owners, followed by a personal welcome on arrival and welcome booklet delivered in person to our caravan. No intrusive road noise during our stay, great sized pitch with water and electric hook up at the pitch, (grey waste - drains into hedgerow). Fantasic views of the fishing lake with a back drop of Caer Carodoc hill beyond.

Disliked Lack of water drainage from pitch surface (glad we didn't use the awning) we had two large puddles that gathered, ( although we do now know the water came from Storm Claudia !!). Long walk to the facilities, (they were basic, but clean and very useable however)

Local attractions

At National Trust – Carding Mill Valley on the Long Mynd (10 minutes’ drive), you can hike on heather-covered hills, taking in splendid, far-reaching views of the Shropshire Hills. If you’re up for a moderately challenging walk, make a beeline for the Lightspout Waterfall, where you might catch a glimpse of red kites hovering in the skies above you. Dominated by a medieval castle that now hosts seasonal events (such as summer concerts), Ludlow (half an hour) has a lively market scene, with regular food and crafts stalls most days, plus occasional days dedicated to local producers or antiques. Grab a quiche or some cheese and cold cuts, and head to Linney Riverside Park for a waterfront picnic. Covered in heather and gorse, the dramatic jagged landscape of Stiperstones National Nature Reserve (35 minutes), near the Welsh border, is home to assorted wildlife – from lizards and frogs to birds of prey and butterflies.
