  • No-frills site on a Shropshire farm with views of the Cheshire Plains
  • A 10-minute drive to Market Drayton; half an hour to Stoke on Trent
  • Meet the animals; farm shop selling fresh produce; leave-no-trace site
Set up in a remote spot with birdsong and farm animals as your morning soundtrack… Park Hill Farm is a scenic site on a dog-friendly working farm 10 minutes’ drive from Market Drayton, in north Shropshire. And in case you’re wondering just how scenic the location is… well, it overlooks the Cheshire Plains, Wrekin and the Welsh hills, as well as sitting alongside a woodland that is a Site of Special Scientific Interest. The site is set up for wild camping – meaning back-to-basics (and eco-friendly) facilities including a toilet and shower block and a convenient washing-up station. It's run on a 'leave no trace' ethos and doesn't have its own bins, so all rubbish must be taken away with you. There’s no electricity or wifi, so instead of scrolling on their phones, children can let off steam in the fresh air and get involved in meeting the animals with the farmer (new friends may include pigs, cows and cats). Sourcing supplies for a gas barbecue is simple, since the site sells free-range eggs from its happy hens, along with its own beef burgers, pork sausages and bacon, plus a handful of pre-packaged essentials like bread, milk, breakfast cereals and ice creams. If you’re in need of any extras, the village of Loggerheads (10 minutes’ drive along the A53) has a couple of small shops, as well as a pub and an Indian restaurant. If you want to leave the car behind, Loggerheads can be reached with a splendid 15-minute walk through the countryside. (This is just one of several paths you can take from the site through the local woodlands and farmlands. The farm shop has maps you can borrow.)

From the manager: Thank you Rachel. What a lovely review. We are so glad you both enjoyed it and found the woods great for dog walking. The woods are great especially in the heat, and we are so glad you both made time to enjoy them.

It was lovely to meet your other half with his 4 paws, and we hope today's journey was successful, if not long.

If you get the chance to visit us again, you are very welcome.

Thank you for reviewing us.

We'ĺl definitely go back and would recommend.

Liked I had a fantastic stay at Park Hill Farm. Pat and John were incredibly friendly and welcoming from the moment I arrived, making me feel right at home.

The on-site farm shop is a real highlight. I bought some of their home-reared steak, and it was absolutely delicious—fresh, full of flavour, and excellent quality. It was a little surreal cooking it while the herd stood nearby watching me prepare one of their relatives! 😂

The site itself is peaceful, well-kept, and excellent value for money. There are some lovely walks straight from the site, and if you’re into wildlife or photography, there are plenty of birds to photograph in the surrounding countryside.

A wonderful place to relax, enjoy nature, and experience genuine farm hospitality. I wouldn’t hesitate to return and highly recommend it!

Liked Very welcoming host, Pat. I even got a tour of the farm and met the week-old piglets! Lovely views of the sunset from the site; plentiful and very clean toilets; decent showers; some good walks nearby; farm animals to see and a fair few cats(although they don’t bother you, if you’re not a cat person)!

Disliked Nothing, it’s a lovely site and clearly well cared-for

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked What an absolute gem of a site! The facilities far exceeded our expectations for what is advertised (and priced) as a basic site. The views, the sunsets, the peace and quiet and the cutest week old piglets made for a perfect getaway. John and Pat made us feel so welcome - they pour their heart and soul into ensuring campers have the best time without being at all intrusive. The sausages and bacon from their farm shop are out of this world! One of the best sites we've ever stayed on. We can't wait to return very soon!

From the manager: Hi Paula.

Thank you so much for taking the time to review us, and to give us such a great review. This means a lot to us, as does the photo of the 3 of you. We are so glad that the sunset came out for you, and that John was around to show you the piglets. they are always a winner! A shame they become sandwiches in the future!!

It was a pleasure to meet you both and have a chat. We hope the onward journey was successful and that you didn't get caught in all the heat. We really look forward to meeting you again, and cannot thank you enough for reviewing us when you are so busy. Best wishes Pat and John
