I liked the fact that Julia has a vision for and is creating a community site on the family farm. The motorhome pitch had a great view point of Rodney's Pillar on the nearby hillside and farm views across the pond to the fields with grazing herd and the river beyond. The shepherd's hut is nestled into the trees and the new lodges are built on staggered levels so that everyone has a view across the pond and fields. The cafe/bar is very well stocked and has great new decor - with an excellent coffee machine and great selection of teas, and a wide collection of gin! Great for the summer, there is a lovely outside garden area with plenty of tables and outside seating, perfect for a sunny morning breakfast and a relaxing evening drink. In the summertime I imagine it will be very popular with the guests and will create a warm community spirit on the site. I also liked the presence of animals on the farm, especially the Highland cattle and the friendly farm cat.

Great site with good facilities. Owner really friendly and cooked breakfasts were amazing.
Good local cycling on quiet lanes and walk up to Rodney's pillar was great!

Had a lovely night in the shepherds hut!! Beautiful accommodation and location, like a fairy garden!!
Breakfast in the cafe was also excellent... We will be back 😀

The weather 🤷🏻‍♀️

Enjoyed our stay in sycton lodge, 2 very good nights sleep in comfy bed. Facilities in lodge perfect. Julia is lovely, welcoming and helpful. Ideal fishing location on river Severn and well stocked pool. Recently opened potting shed cafe onsite serves a selection of home baked cakes, scones, shepherd's pie, fruit crumble, breakfasts and sandwiches. Local convenience store just 10 minutes drive, lots of places to visit and beautiful breathtaking views. Look forward to returning in 2021.

Not alot

Too much .
BED. Didnt think I would have to check but after painful night needing pain relief for knee, shoulder and back, banged leg on chipboard and with thin matress poor poor quality.
Not sure bedding changed if so wssnt ironed.
Took own.
Bed settee couldnt sleep on for studded top.
Broken light in room.
No wifi which didnt bother us.
TV 5 channels intermittent working.
2 spoons and 2 forks, 3 bowls and 4 l plates.
Tap just outside but one toilet block bit of a walk up step gravel path, not ideal for slipping.
Toilet wouldnt flush well so always something floating in it.
Water SCALDING BE CAREFUL.
Did have heating.
Had to come in one night as even my book pages covered in ash as onsite fire caused so much smoke clothes smelt .
Stayed with accomplished fisherman who said pond had no restocking and what ever fish were in the heron must have had as no evident of anything to catch and river not accessible.
Told owner issues and she just says "oh". No offer to change or help. They do want your money before you can see the accommodation so be aware. Expensive for what you get.
Bad accident on the only road in from Shrewsbury caused 3 hour delay.
Did get to the castle and worth a look lovely grounds.
Wouldnt say child friendly unless supervised at all times.
Shop on site never open, no shops near by that we found.

Julia and her team were very approachable and helpful. Small clean and tidy site. The Potting Shed recent addition where you can buy alcoholic drinks, breakfast, lunch, afternoon teas and homemade cakes. Garden area lovely and relaxing. Lots of work underway on Shepherds huts, lodges etc. The site will look very different for the 2021 season with new accommodation and additional toilets and showers planned. Views from the site fabulous.

Aware that 3 toilets and 2 showers for whole site. We were in no rush so waited for the right time to use the facilities
