General
- Small family-run glamping site with lovely Shropshire Hills views
- A 15-minute drive to Ironbridge; 25 minutes to Shrewsbury
- Luxury bathroom, kitchen and private outdoor space for each unit
Set off for a stay at School Farm Holidays and you’ll be able to take in some rather stunning views from some rather comfortable and stylish outdoor accommodation. This small family-run site between Shrewsbury and Telford is up at the top end of the Shropshire Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and it makes a lovely place for a break with your partner, your family or a small group of friends.
Accommodation here is in characterfully designed glamping units that have been well thought out for comfort and convenience – each one has full central heating, a luxury bathroom with unlimited hot water, and a well-equipped kitchen (with fridge freezer, oven, hob, microwave and all the crockery, cutlery and pans you’ll need to rustle up a few meals). Bed linen and towels are provided, and there’s good wifi to help you keep in touch with the outside world.
You’ll catch glimpses of the views from inside your accommodation, but you’ll no doubt want to spend some time out in the open too – and that’s been made similarly comfortable as each unit has been allocated its own private outdoor space with a firepit/barbecue, pergola and outdoor eating area.
That’s not to say that you have to see the scenery from a static position – you can easily take a stroll around the working farm, which has acres of open fields, orchards and a brook to explore and sheep and pygmy goats to meet. There are some great walks to be had nearby too, either in the immediate area around the farm or further afield at top spots like Carding Mill Valley and the Wrekin (which you can spot from the farm).
Open from 01/03/2023 to 01/01/2024

Local attractions
This area is packed with lovely scenery, which you can spot from all sorts of scenic trails through the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Places like Carding Mill Valley and the Long Mynd (half an hour’s drive) are the most well known spots but you should be able to find plenty of equally scenic and quieter paths around the area too.
There’s also lots of interesting history around to discover too – from the birthplace of the modern Olympics at Much Wenlock (10 minutes) to the birthplace of Charles Darwin in Shrewsbury (25 minutes). You can also easily have a full day out at Ironbridge (15 minutes), which is a World Heritage Site full of museums and attractions.
National Trust properties are plentiful in this pretty area too, whether you stay on the English side of the border for trips to Benthall Hall and Attingham Park (both 15 minutes) or cross over into Wales to check out Powis Castle (50 minutes).
