  • Spacious pitches on a Shropshire farm a 15-minute drive from Oswestry
  • Shropshire Sculpture Park five minutes’ drive; Telford 40 minutes
  • Family- and dog-friendly site; pub and buses within a 20-minute walk
In rural Shropshire, 15 minutes’ drive from Oswestry, Red Oak Camping is a welcoming site on a family-run working cattle farm; the presence of resident animals at some sites often means that you can’t bring dogs, but happily that is not the case here, where your well-behaved four-legged companion will be a welcome guest (though bear in mind that there is an extra charge). There are assorted accommodation options here, and what unifies them all is the feeling of spaciousness and the utterly peaceful vibe – give or take the occasional lowing from the cows… Guests also benefit from such amenities as a toilet and shower block, an outdoor washing-up area and ice-pack freezing, as well as recycling points, chemical waste disposal and charging facilities for electric cars. Mind you, you might not need to recharge your car until the day you leave, since it only takes 20 minutes on foot to reach the village of West Felton, from where a bus service links to places such as Oswestry, Shrewsbury (25 minutes) and Telford (40 minutes). West Felton also has a pub serving food – that’s if you don’t fancy firing up the barbecue for dinner – and there’s another pub within a half-hour walk (or five minutes’ drive), on the Montgomery Canal, which runs through Shropshire and Powys and is a pretty spot for a post-lunch walk.

Liked Loved everything! First class facilities and they let me use their electrical socket to inflate my air bed. Lovely walk down the nearby canal to a super pub (navigational arms I think) which was really dog friendly, as was the red oak site. Would love to visit again if I am able

Disliked Absolutely nothing!

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Firstly we would like to thank Becky for making out weekend visit fantastic, she was there on site whenever you needed her. Becky was also very warm, friendly, welcoming and couldnt do enough to make sure the stay was just amazing. The campsite is very flat, perfect size pitches.

Lots of attractions close by and lots of lovely walks. will definitely be returning. 👍👏

Disliked Nothing to dislike.

Liked The lady came to meet us when we arrived. There were lots of others staying at the site which we prefer. The amenities were good too - there were separate shower and toiletry areas for males and females, plus even a kitchen with a fridge and microwave etc. Friendly people.

Disliked It felt like a bit of a building site when we first went on the field but it didn't bother us as the field we camped on and everything else was fine.

Liked A wonderful campsite with a very welcoming and friendly owner. The location offers stunning views and peaceful walks along the canal. The facilities are excellent – there’s a cooker, microwave, kettle, and even a washing machine – and the showers and toilets are kept spotless. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily return.

Liked What a lovely few days we have had. Perfect peaceful campsite with lovely views and absolutely brilliant facilities. Showers and toilets were immaculate. There is a full kitchen to use that's also immaculate. A big thankyou to Peter who could not do more for his guests. This site really is a gem and we will definitely be returning.

Disliked Absolutely nothing, not even a noisy neighbour.

Local attractions

Shropshire Sculpture Park (five minutes’ drive) exhibits more than 100 artworks on the lush grounds of the British Ironwork Centre. They include the 13-foot Spoon Gorilla (made out of – you guessed it: spoons; upwards of 40,000 of them, donated by people all around the world) and a sculpture honouring police dogs. Dating from the 11th century, moated Whittington Castle (10 minutes) occupies a 12-acre site that is home to ducks, swans and other wildlife. Among the events organised at the castle are alfresco theatre performances, living history weekends and craft fairs. A northbound drive along the A5 takes you past the early 19th-century Chirk Aqueduct (25 minutes), whose arches stretch across the border between England and Wales, and all the way to Chirk Castle (half an hour). This National Trust property is home to a collection of decorative arts that includes a spectacular Japanese chest with mother-of-pearl details.
