Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews




















Peaceful pitch, well-run campsite!
Squirrel's Hideaway non-electric grass and earth tent pitch (adults only, secluded)
Liked The pitch (squirrel's hideaway) did indeed feel secluded and peaceful. It was lovely to be on a campsite created by people who clearly love camping, and know what makes a good camping experience (e.g. a table, bbq, fire pit and box of logs come with the pitch; having enough space to yourself, whilst feeling in connection with others; good washing up area, and some spare pots in case you need them; clean loos). As a bonus, the squirrel's hideaway did indeed come with plenty of squirrels! :-)

Best Place
Dove non-electric grass and earth tent pitch (family)
Liked Absolutley amazing. everything you need in one place. so friendly. all ammenties on site cleaned every day. kitchen, toilets and a shower and in immaculate condition. plenty of toilets aswell. our pitch was perfect as there was 10 of us, 3 adullts and 7 children, we had 2 rope swings which the kids loved. bbq and campfire was at every pitch. they had every thing from cuterley to plates to chairs to use. honestly the best place we have stayed.
judie, anthony and mike was great to talk to, made us feel welcomed. very warm and friendly enviroment.
no phone service here but that didnt bother us. local aldi and morrisons about 15 minute drive.

Fantastic glampsite with lots of equipment provided
Badgers Hollow shepherd's hut
Liked So much was provided eg camping chairs, cutlery, glasses, saucepans, lanterns, pumps and a picnic table. We don't have a car so can't take much with us but were able to have a gorgeous holiday in the countryside easily at Wrekin because so much is provided.
It was great for kids because of the play area and swings etc dotted around and access to the incredible forest school.
Facilities were clean which was great.
The owners floated around and were happy to help with anything.
The site was beautiful and relaxing.
The shepherds hut was bigger and warmer than expected and was great value for money.
Disliked The single fold-out bed in our hut was a bit thin and there was no duvet but we were fine.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Hi, thank you so much for taking the time to write a lovely review. We will look into replacing the fold out bed, I guess over time they become a little squished. Duvet wise, we do say we don't provide the additional bedding for fold out beds, but please just ask next time, we have a cupboard full of every spare you can think of and could happily given you a duvet or sleeping bag. We are glad that overall you had a fab time. Please do visit again. Judie & Anthony

Foxes Den camping pod (no pets)
Liked Great facilities, very friendly and the fox den was cozy. Really as a homely vibe even with everything outdoors and separated from your sleeping space
Disliked If you're on a motorbike the driveway is loose gravel, there is little to no phone signal there (great if you want to get away from the world for a weekend)
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Hi, thank you for taking the time to write a review. We are glad you liked foxes den, it is quirky! Sorry the drive way was awkward for a motorbike, I can see it might be. In reality that probably is unlikely to ever change, I am guessing there is little prospect of the phone signal improving either. Thank you and glad that overall eveerything was good. Judie & Anthony

Exquisite site, friendly, relaxing holiday, we will be back soon!
Squirrel's Hideaway non-electric grass and earth tent pitch (adults only, secluded)
Liked Loved Everything about our stay. Clean, quiet, peaceful and beautiful forest.
The loos were spotless and had light switches and wall paper. The shower was gas heated with small changing area with shelving.
Everything was thought out thouroughly for a relaxing stay. The play areas had football goals, a ping pong table and swings as well as a tree house with slide. Forest school ( a mini wood hut village of all things woodland craft and play) was run by the dedicated campsite staff, sharing their passion for the woodland with all. Painting, woodturning, archery, rifle shooting, high ropes, low ropes...and of course water and cups provided for the children and hot dogs -and tea and coffee for the adults!
The site would be blissful for booking entirely for a summer gathering, birthday, wedding or just to be with family and friends- they even had glamping wooden caravans, canvas bell tent and a small static caravan seperately tucked into the woods if tent life didnt appeal!
We can't wait to return. Thank you for a wonderful holiday.

What a find! A well equipped stunning site.
Non-electric grass and earth tent pitch
Liked An absolutely fabulous site with excellent facilities. Large pitches, great areas for children to play, very well equipped, fire pits and barbecues provided, beautiful site and an amazing forest school, clean toilets, shower and washing up facilities.
Judie's communication was excellent in advance of our visit and when we experienced a couple of issues with the tent was very helpful and quick to help.
The morning chorus was outstanding.
We'll definitely be back!

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to review our venue. It was a pleasure having you and your son to stay. We are pleased that you had a good stay. We are so sorry your tent misbehaved in the rain. We will be replacing it immediately! Thank you for being so gracious in the face of an unwanted puddle. We hope that we will see you again soon.
