Electric grass pitch (large, no pets)

Liked: Yes we liked the site, the pitches were huge, plenty of space to run about on pitch and off pitch. Good park for our children and ideally located to walk in to seem
For a drink and Sunday carvery.) The porta-showers were better than the main shower block. Outdoor pool was freezing but to be expected as it wasn’t a particularly warm day, but good fun and would be great in warmer weather, easy to book and provided with own bench / table. Site is old fashioned / dated but overall we enjoyed it and would go back. Thank you

Disliked: The toilets were in a poor state on the morning one of the days, appreciate the site was busy but would have appreciated an earlier clean (no toilet roll, ladies dirty products strewn about the place and unflushed toilets

Electric grass pitch (large, no pets)

Liked: Staff were very friendly.

Disliked: Camping toilets were disgusting so walked to the others which were just as bad.

Food very basic.

Group of adults acting like drunk teenagers until 2am on our last night spoilt it. Told to contact security and there was no answer.

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).
