Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Everything. The site is well maintained, in the middle of what feels like nowhere, bustling with wildlife. It’s extremely peaceful and spacious. For the price, I feel I’ve been spoilt with a toilet, water and cold shower. What a bargain. The owners seem wonderful, they gave me clear directions and info upon booking which was much appreciated. Can’t wait to return, would absolutely reccomend

Disliked Absolutely nothing. There is nothing you could possibly dislike

The staff were lovely & came to check on us and help

Disliked Closest location to buy anything is a 15 minute drive or a hour+ walk

Reception is quite bad in the area

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked perfect stay, the pitches were far apart from each other. Due to the hill we couldn’t even see who was sharing our field with us. So nice and secluded with amazing views and great walks from the site. Loos were nice and clean and the family running the place are so kind and welcoming. Will definitely be returning!

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Location, amazing views, good access to walking paths, ultra-basic and informal. Just what I was looking for. Plenty of space, which is important, given that in a hilly area finding a level pitch might be tricky at busy times. But look at the view!

Disliked Not the easiest to find, and phone signal is patchy, so make sure you know where you're going before you get off the beaten track. The track from the road is long and very rough, so wouldn't be great for cyclists. Bring some supplies with you as local shops are not close.

What customers say

This campsite offers a remote, peaceful escape with stunning views, ideal for those seeking a "back to basics" wild camping experience. Pitches are spacious, providing privacy and opportunities for campfires. Hosts are consistently praised for being friendly, helpful, and attentive. While facilities are basic, including portable toilets and cold showers, they are generally found to be clean. Some visitors note that pitches can be sloped and the access track rough, and advise bringing water carriers due to the water tap's location.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Great location and price.

Encouraged to pitch well away from other pitches.

The views were pretty, the people friendly and the portaloo clean.

Disliked Camping fields on hillside so hard to find a level pitches at all, quite steep for sleeping.

There was a lot of camp junk where I pitched - tent pegs, a lighter, cigarette butts, ground fire pit full of ash.

No evening check that rules being adhered to by everyone.

Local attractions

It’s the walking trails that will lure you to this part of the world – the moorlands of Carding Mill Valley and the Long Mynd (40 minutes' drive) are particularly popular for pottering around, while the Offa’s Dyke Path is prime for long-distance roams. Mountain bikers can make for Eastridge Woods (15 minutes’ walk), which is well known for hosting mountain-biking competitions. It has trails that are free to use, whether you’re a beginner or an expert cyclist. If you love history, you're in a good locale too. Head to Snailbeach Lead Mine (20 minutes' drive) for a half-hour walk through the countryside and to see what's considered to be the most complete lead mining site in Britain, with surprisingly well-preserved engine houses, blacksmith's shop and recognisable spoil heaps across the valley. Shrewsbury (half an hour) next? The medieval market town has plenty more history, and you don't need to dig far to find it… the timber-framed black-and-white houses and steep, narrow passageways known as 'shuts'. If you're feeling brave, you could visit Shrewsbury Prison to try out the escape rooms or take a guided tour of the Victorian-era jail led by former officers. Afterwards, wind down with a walk along the River Severn at the pretty 29-acre Quarry Park.
