Liked: Everything!! We had a lovely welcome off Sue who greeted us by name on our arrival, we received a welcome pack with loads of information of the surrounding areas and activities. We were escorted to the hard standing area and told we could choose our spot. Lovely clean site, so much space. There was a huge car boot on the Sunday and also a brilliant dog show. We had electric hook up, all other utilities were very close by. The facilities were very clean and there were plenty of them. We cannot wait to visit again. We were also told that ot is run by a charity which makes us feel like we would want to visit on a regular basis as there is so much to do, there and in the surrounding areas. We ended up staying an extra night as we enjoyed it so much.
Disliked: Nothing.

Liked: We were absolutely delighted to find how accurate all the positive reviews we’d read about this site were. We were met by Sue the host who was friendly informative and (rightly) very enthusiastic about the site. We especially enjoyed the milk machine which was on site. It was a quiet period in June so we had a choice of pitch (we’d booked hard-standing for our motorhome as the weather had been very wet previously but the grassed areas had all dried out and were useable). We chose a spot down “Tree Avenue” close to electric and water point. If you haven’t been before – do make sure you have a long electric cable – some of the EHU points can be quite a way from a pitch. The site was really peaceful and has a pleasant walk near the river – this area does have a reputation for flooding over the winter and suffered very badly last winter but everything is looking good now. The site is ideally positioned near Shrewsbury centre and just a pleasant 15-20 minute walk into the centre, bus and train stations. There were a couple of events at the showground during our stay – a regular car boot sale and a schools’ choir event. The car boot didn’t affect us as it was on a separate part of the ground and we just had the amusement of watching cars parking around us for the choir event! (We also had a free concert from the choirs).

Liked: What a well kept and spacious site. Getting ready for the show at the end of the month. But still looked after like royalty. Access to site was easy and well sign posted. Town is only a short walk, 15 mins. Take away couriers will deliver to site. Will return in the future.
Disliked: Toilet facilities need attention. Hire facilities are on site for free.
