What customers say
A gem for a quiet escape! Lovely views, fantastic stars. Jack and Mandy are super helpful, making sure you're comfy. Good, spacious pitches, basic but clean loos. Campfires okay. Watch out for the bumpy road in – use what3words. They've even added more toilets!

Excellent stay promising everything it has to offer and delivering!
Unpowered grass tent or motorhome site
Liked Excellent rural site, has good clean amenities with lots of little touches obviously thought about by the hosts, the hosts are friendly, welcoming and readily available if you need any help or just to say hi, beautiful settling with only the sounds of nature and the darkest sky at night for star gazing or just sitting in peace. Hot clean shower (£4 for 4 mins, so don’t forget your pennies!) excellent communication from the hosts before and during our stay - even noticing I had booked the wrong dates to the rest of our party and reaching out to fix my error! Make sure you put the property name into the sat nav along with the postcode and won’t miss it.
Disliked Nothing to dislike!

Powered grass and gravel motorhome site
Liked The loveliest campsite. Very friendly owners who have put a lot of thought into small touches - the gentleman saw my toddler colouring and brought him a large blackboard and chalks which he was thrilled with. Wonderfully quiet and peaceful, facilities are basic but clean and everything you need is there.
Disliked Just that we only stayed one night, not two!

Powered grass tent or motorhome site
Liked We stayed here for a few nights and genuinely had a great experience. The campsite has a really relaxed, peaceful atmosphere and feels like a proper escape from the busy day-to-day. Everything was clean and well looked after, including the facilities, which were regularly maintained.
The hosts were friendly and welcoming without being intrusive, and it was clear they take pride in the site. The pitches were spacious, and there was plenty of room to enjoy the surroundings. One of the highlights was sitting outside in the evening and looking up at the stars—the dark skies here are amazing.
If I had to pick one small thing, it would be that the access roads are a bit narrow, but that's pretty typical for rural campsites and didn't take away from the experience.
Overall, we'd definitely stay here again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Along the Milky Way Campsite to anyone looking for a quiet, scenic place to unwind.

Anonymous Unpowered grass tent or motorhome site
Liked Beautiful location, so peaceful with amazing 360 views. Loved watching the red kites every morning. Small campsite and facilities but perfect for what we needed. Owners were very friendly and shared tips for walking to the local town of Clun. Dog friendly too!
Disliked Shower temperature was a bit unpredictable but all facilities were clean and tidy. Otherwise a perfect stay!

A site that’s out of this world
Unpowered grass tent or motorhome site
Liked Everything, flat pitches, good room between pitches, beautiful tranquil area. The owners were thoughtful and provided everything you could possibly need with some extra touches in case you forget toiletries. Fire pits were free and you could buy logs or coal for your BBQ, I would give them all the stars. The owners even came round in the evening to say hello which I thought was rare and a lovely touch
Disliked I wanted to stay longer
