  • Adults-only dog-friendly site near the Shropshire/Staffordshire border
  • A 20-minute drive to Ironbridge Gorge; Wenlock Edge 40 minutes
  • Within a five-minute drive of three pubs and Weston Park
If you like to take a walk or few while you’re away, settling somewhere along the Shropshire/Staffordshire border is a very good idea. And that’s exactly where The Willows Caravan Park sits, opening up options for all sorts of trails across these two scenic counties. Ironbridge Gorge is 20 minutes’ drive away too, and this adults-only Shropshire site is also peaceful, pet-friendly and pretty handily positioned for getting out to pubs, tea rooms and plenty of other places to eat and shop… In fact, there are three pubs and restaurants within a five-minute drive of the site, in Great Chatwell (a 35-minute walk if you’d rather go on foot), Pave Lane and Tong. The market towns of Shifnal and Newport are within a 10-minute drive, plus Telford is only a 20-minute drive away if you're in need of additional convenient amenities. Perhaps you’d like to visit the tea rooms at the garden centre just outside of Albrighton, 10 minutes’ drive away. And with there being a restaurant at the 17th-century Weston Park, five minutes’ drive away, there really is a lot of choice. That's a lot of time dedicated to eating and drinking, so if you find yourself craving a nice long walk, a cycle or some wildlife watching, make your way over to the Shropshire Hills or Cannock Chase, two National Landscapes about half an hour’s drive away. Back on site it’s a simple setup, so don't expect heaps of fancy facilities. All the essentials are covered though, with toilets, showers and a chemical disposal point for guests to use.

What customers say

This adults-only site is consistently praised for its cleanliness, peaceful atmosphere, and well-maintained facilities, including a dog walking field. Pitch sizes are generous, and water/electric hook-ups are available at each. Minor road noise is occasionally mentioned but generally not considered disruptive. Some guests noted difficulty with the gate lock, which the manager has addressed.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked A lovely, cosy, quiet (late Sept) site with nice flat pitches and good facilities. Nice touches in the shower area and piping hot water. It has good transport links to the M54, Telford, Newport or Wolverhampton.
We visited Lilleshall Abbey, climbed the “hill”, Newport and Wightwick Manor.
And also found time to walk to the Red Lion pub (30-35mins).

Disliked There is no water drop accessible for motorhomes.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi Stephen,

Thanks for taking time to leave your review.

Apologies, no, currently we do not have a water drop for motorhomes but we also do not advertise this facility.
It is something we may consider for next year, if we do, we will update our page accordingly.

Many thanks

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Beautiful site with lots of thought put into the design - an archway and deer sculptures for example. The toilets and shower are spotless. Access is via a gate with a code padlock so it felt very secure. Communication was very good. My phone signal was good too.

Disliked A slight amount of road noise but not at all intrusive and you get used to it very quickly.

Local attractions

This is an excellent area for walks, especially if you head east to the Cannock Chase National Landscape (half an hour’s drive) or west to the Shropshire Hills for top spots like Wenlock Edge and The Lawley (both 40 minutes). There’s also golf, fishing and horse riding close by, or you could opt for a gentler day out with a ride on the Severn Valley Railway from Bridgnorth station (half an hour). If you’ve got an eye for gorgeous gardens, you’re in for a real treat at Weston Park (five minutes), where the gardens around the 17th-century mansion were designed by Capability Brown. To add a bit more history to your break, make a visit to the Royal Air Force Museum Midlands (10 minutes) or spend the day exploring Ironbridge Gorge (25 minutes) – this UNESCO World Heritage Site is home to 10 wonderful museums including Blists Hill Victorian Town and the Coalport China Museum – plus the iron bridge itself, of course.
