What customers say

This is a small, peaceful campsite with friendly and helpful owners. Guests praised the beautiful rural location, good for walking and stargazing, and appreciated the free WiFi and charging facilities. The site offers level pitches and well-maintained, clean facilities, including complimentary toiletries. Minor concerns included the single toilet/shower unit and the 20p shower charge, with some finding the approach road narrow. Overall, visitors found it excellent value for money and intend to return.

Electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked I really like this site. It was small and quiet and had everything you really needed for camping plus Wi-Fi!

Disliked I’d recommend bringing a roll of blue roll just because one of the toilets is much more popular than the other and runs out quickly.

From the manager: Hello! Thank you for your lovely review. We have got a cold water washing up sink. I think it may have been hidden by a big camper van that was parked next to it? I’m sorry if I failed to mention to you that it was there. M.

Peaceful farm site with level pitches, and adjacent footpaths.

Electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked Lovely quiet site in the country between Clun and Knighton. Both really quaint villages. The Horse and Jockey in Knighton is highly recommended.
Toilet and shower very clean. It's £1.00 per 4 mins for shower. The owners are very helpful and friendly.
Peaceful nights sleep and wish we could have stayed longer. We will return!

Rosina G.

Electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked Absolutely fantastic, amazing site with incredibly caring owners. A true hidden gem! We adored the view of the farmland and the sound of the sheep, spotting a few red Kite's flying over the trees. Not to mention, there's nothing more amazing than the night sky views and casual conversation we had with one another and other visitors too.

The owners even came out on our last evening, we sat around a campfire with our neighbour tent and we all had fun looking at the milky way (for which this site is named) together and the various satellites that flew overhead - many of which are for navigation purposes, but also seeing a few shooting stars.

I'd like to advise there is no play area and it is on working farmland, so it is important that you occupy your children. We had no issues with this, it was one of the reasons we booked. There is no play area or anything but a large field that children can relax and unwind as well. My 12 and two 9 yr olds were more than satisfied and we spent 5 days there.

Disliked Nothing at all. It's a small cosy site with shared facilities and every person staying was aware of this, being mindful of showers, bathrooms etc. Nothing at all to dislike!

From the manager: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was really good sitting out with you all watching the stars. Hope to see you all again soon. Jack and Mandy

Liked Quiet surroundings. Level pitches. Clean facilities.
Lovely welcoming hosts. Having read previous reviews regarding issues with there only being one toilet, there is now another separate toilet to use.

Local attractions

There are plenty of options for walks in this area, whether you choose to stay local or head out to a hotspot like Carding Mill Valley and the Long Mynd (40 minutes’ drive). The Offa’s Dyke Path is a popular trail too, and you can find out more about it at the Offa’s Dyke Centre in Knighton (10 minutes). As well as country rambles, the area has some lovely urban strolls. You may like to start in Clun (10 minutes) to see the 15th-century packhorse bridge and the ruins of Clun Castle. Hopton Castle (20 minutes) and Stokesay Castle (25 minutes) are also worth visiting, and the latter is close to the Shropshire Hills Discovery Centre (25 minutes), a useful hub of information and activities. Shrewsbury (an hour) is a pretty town to wander around, but if you don’t want to drive that far you may prefer Ludlow (35 minutes) – it’s got a splendid medieval castle and has developed a reputation as a foodie hotspot thanks to its market, indie food businesses and annual food festival.
