Non-electric grass campervan pitch

Liked: Beautiful landscape, right on the Severn with big, flat and well-maintained fields.
Freda was lovely and welcoming and helped me find the perfect spot.
The facilities are also top notch!

Disliked: Nothing- there was some road noise but by nighttime that had gone and it didn’t detract from the scenery

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Nice, flat site next to the river.
Toilet, shower and washing up area is the cleanest I've come across.
I was offered complimentary tea and coffee too.

Disliked: Unfortunately, traffic noise is a problem at night and I had the misfortune of being close to a very inconsiderate group who partied loud into the small hours of the morning.

Non-electric grass campervan pitch

Liked: Lovely setting

Disliked: Expensive at £26 without EHU and hidden cost of additional £4 for 2 people to use showers. This cost not shown on booking or booking confirmation nor advised on arrival. Not very professional.

Local attractions

Offa's Dyke Path and the Severn Way both pass directly opposite the site, giving you lots of choice when it comes to pedestrian rambles. These long-distance paths open up a range of landscapes: while Offa's Dyke runs from north to south (or south to north, depending which way you look at it) along an Anglo-Saxon ridgeway, the Severn Way (as its name suggests) generally sticks close to Britain's longest river. If you've caught the walking bug, an active jaunt to the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (30 minutes' drive) or Snowdonia National Park (about an hour) could also be on the agenda. If energy levels run low, though, perhaps you'll plump for a restorative ride on the Welshpool and Llanfair Light Railway (30 minutes), followed by some tasty Welsh cakes. For a bit more history, there's the Llanfyllin Workhouse (20 minutes), Powis Castle (20 minutes) and the National-Trust managed Attingham Park Estate (30 minutes). If you like to combine the past with flurries of feathered flight, check out Battlefield Falconry Centre (30 minutes).
