Fully-serviced grass and gravel pitch (super)

Liked Lovely site with good facilities, absolutely incredible staff who don't hesitate to help, the wardens were fantastic. Lots of different type of pitches so some would be louder than others. Two good parks for kids and a great ' no photo' policy at the swimming pool. Great area to do washing up.

Disliked It would be nicer to have a longer slot in the pool as 45 minutes isn't that long for a larger family however we appreciate you are trying to accommodate everyone.

Fully-serviced grass and gravel pitch (super)

Liked This site had everything someone needs! Site staff/wardens were never too far away and always willing to help. Always had a smile on their face, and very professional and polite. Our fully serviced hard standing pitch was level, had to little bit of levelling of the caravan but no trouble! Well kept site, clean and tidy.

Fully-serviced grass and gravel pitch (super)

Liked Really great service from staff and the site is well patrolled / kept clean etc. Good parks for the kids as there are two on each end.

Disliked Very large site and there is a lot of permanent residents that make lots of areas shanty town looking and derelict. The site seems to be a bit mish mash in terms of its set up and what it’s aiming for. Lots of E Bikes zooming around too…We personally wouldn’t stay again and have two young kids.

Electric grass pitch (large, no pets)

Liked Great location an hour outside of wales/chester. Enjoyed the friendly geordies on site and the majority of the staff were helpful and friendly. Big pitch on orange field, lots of parks and farm animals for the kids and a pool. Entertainment was decent, shop onsite and cafe serving good, basic food. Major plus is the campers actually seemed to respect the quiet hours too, maybe the 24/7 wardens and owners on site make some think twice. Overall great experience, would be great for families with little ones.

Disliked Quite a retro vibe, feels like it could do with modernising. Showers I would have appreciated a mixer so you can choose the temperature.

Local attractions

Shropshire is a pretty peaceful place without too many crowds most of the time, so grab your chance to get stuck into a few gentle activities like floating on the Shropshire Union Canal, river Severn or Llangollen canal (50 minutes' drive). The site is also within striking distance of Ironbridge Gorge (45 minutes), a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Adore exploring the history of a place? Take yourself to spots like the British Ironwork Centre (35 minutes), Blists Hill Victorian Town (40 minutes) and Royal Air Force Museum Midlands (40 minutes), or pretend like you've gone back in time at Attingham Park (25 minutes), a National Trust site. The Quarry (half an hour) is a gorgeous spot for a little stroll in Shrewsbury, and if you fancy something a bit more challenging, Hawkstone Park Follies (five minutes) has sandstone hills and caves. If you're looking for activities that'll entertain the kids, however, make a beeline for Hoo Zoo and Dinosaur World (35 minutes). The site is near plenty of historic Shropshire towns and villages, from Hodnet (10 minutes) and Ellesmere (20 minutes) to Market Drayton (20 minutes) and Oswestry (40 minutes).
