  • 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 is a peaceful, adult-only campsite, highly praised for its immaculate cleanliness, well-maintained pitches, and excellent facilities. Guests appreciate the quiet countryside location, dog-friendly fields, and easy self-check-in. Some mention traffic noise from a nearby main road, which is generally considered minimal. Access can be via a narrow lane. Managers have addressed issues with gate locks and are considering enhancements like motorhome waste disposal points.

Liked Pretty level pitches. Nicely kept and very clean toilet block. Good to have dog walking areas and poo bins.
Lovely area - enjoyed visiting Wroxeter and Shrewsbury.

Disliked Noisy road infront and behind site. Needs heating on in the loo block - had a very cold shower.
Poor phone signal and no WiFi.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi,

Thanks for taking time to leave your review.

Apologies, there is a heater in the shower block and while this is on low, with the weather turning colder this weekend, we will look at this and increase temperature. Also, I apologise if the water was not hot enough - this is usually not a issue. I will look into this and thanks for letting us know.

Regards phone signal, yes, we do not advertise that any phone signal will be available.

Many thanks

Liked Well kept site.
We didn't use the facility block but looked clean and tidy.
Owners appear to be working hard on appearance and are doing a great job.

Disliked Being light sleepers, the nearby road was a little bit disturbing but got used to it.
The previous guest on our pitch had left a weeks worth of cigarette butt's all over the pitch.
However this is not the fault of the site. Just sums up what some people are like.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi Andrew,

Thanks for leaving your review and positive comments regarding our site.

I do apologise that some cigarette butts had been left on the pitch. Upon notification, the issue was addressed. I can only apologise.

Many thanks

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Peaceful and quiet site.

Disliked Light not working in washing up area.
Would benefit from lighting along central path as there is a step up and down to and from this path.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi Liz,

Thanks for taking time to leave your review - we do appreciate this.

Thanks for letting us know about the light in the washing up area. We have replaced the bulb which appears to have remedied the issue.

Thanks for the suggestion about the extra lighting along the path. We will be looking to introduce this for next season.

Thanks Liz.
We hope you will visit us again soon.

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.
