  • Dog-friendly site on 15 acres of Onny Valley countryside
  • River for pond dipping, paddling and fishing
  • Popular pub serving food directly accessible from the site
Pooh! Pooh Sticks, that is – if your kids have never played it, a stay at The Green Caravan Park is the place to teach them the art. A river – the small and shallow River East Onny – runs through it for paddling, pond dipping, the aforementioned Pooh Sticks and fishing: pick up a cheap net at the site shop and keep your little shrimps entertained for hours for mere pennies. Once they’re dried off, there’s on-land nature spotting too, at the area set aside as a nature wilderness, a play area and space galore for bike riding or outdoor games. The Green Caravan Park has several riverside pitches, with others on the park island, in the two dingles, on The Plateau, in the play area field or in a five-acre meadow; electric pitches are in a separate field with both riverside and hardstanding spots. The park covers 15 acres of Onny Valley countryside in a National Landscape between the Long Mynd and Stiperstones Hills: it’s no wonder it’s been called ‘a little gem’ by previous happy campers. Dogs can stretch their paws at the dog walk and exercise area on site (please keep dogs on leads in other areas of the park and clear up after them in all areas). Food is well covered too: the popular family-friendly Inn on the Green serves home-cooked food and is directly accessible from the park (pre-booking comes highly recommended), and there are several country inns in the local area – steak and ale pies at The Crown get particular thumbs up.

What customers say

This campsite gets a thumbs up for its lovely, quiet spot with a stream, offering large pitches and lots of room for kids and dogs. Guests rave about the super friendly, helpful owners, plus handy local pubs and shops. While the facilities are mostly clean, some found them a bit dated and in need of updates, especially the showers. Minor issues like occasional smells or noise were noted, but most visitors loved it and want to come back.

Powered grass tent or RV campsite

Liked Easy marked out pitches, generous size with a place for the bbq. Clean tidy site. Bathrooms clean. Friendly helpful hosts.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Many thanks for your review Paul. We're very cautious with off the floor BBQ usage given the very dry conditions but always happy to offer extra concrete slabs if required but pleased to hear that you were on a pitch with adequate safe space. We look forward to seeing you again soon.

The perfect spot for a chilled weekend with friends.

Powered grass tent or RV campsite

Liked We got the warmest of welcomes from John, he gave us some great info about surrounding areas, the stores and pub which were all great and definitely enhanced our stay. Breakfast for 6 from the stores on Saturday morning cost just £28!
Super remote but all managed to get signal, or jump on the camps WiFi (camping without the kids so wanted to reach them)
Loved the recycling area, easy to use and emptied regularly.
Toilets, showers and washing up facilities all great, well maintained and clean, just a little dated.

Primitive grass travel trailer, tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked We have just stayed here for 3 nights it was very peaceful. Park and playing field were great for my 2 boys to make friends. Plenty of room to choose your pitch. There is a stream running through the campsite which was great fun and even caught some crayfish. Rachel and John were so welcoming and happy to help with any enquiries. There is a pub and shop within 2minute walk that serve food. Very quiet campsite but great atmosphere. Great weekend!

From the manager: Many thanks for your review Louise. We're so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us, we are so fortunate having Wentnor Stores on our doorstep supplementing takeaway meals on a Sat & Mon evening (5- 7.45pm) when the Inn on The Green pub is either very busy or closed.

Liked The location.
The setting.
The whole site.
The range & cleanliness of the facilities.
The friendly owners.
The free wi-fi.

Disliked Water pressure in the showers.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Many thanks for your review Pam. We acknowledge that the water pressure in the showers could be better, the owners have given the facility block a lick of paint, added a false ceiling & removed the 20p shower cost & in time will update the old plumbing system so here's hoping you'll visit again soon to experience the gradual upgrading work.

Great site, clean facilities, helpful owners, great location.

Local attractions

Many visitors to The Green Caravan Park come for Shropshire strolls around the calm country lanes and hills, along the Offa’s Dyke path or from nearby village Wentnor. The park is between the Stiperstone Hills and the Long Mynd, which make up the biggest area of heathland in the Shropshire hills: walk the five and a half miles of the Stiperstone Ridge from the Knolls car park for magnificent views towards the Long Mynd. Folk flock to the area for the birdwatching too: keep an eye out for red kites, plovers and buzzards around the Stiperstones, which is a national nature reserve. This is also castle country: Stokesay, Powis, Montgomery, Clun and Ludlow castles are all within easy driving distance. Have a wander around the festival and foodie town of Ludlow after seeing the castle or see the castle, abbey and over 660 listed buildings of medieval town Shrewsbury, both half an hour away. Industrialists will be kept busy at nearby Snailbeach Lead Mine and historic Ironbridge and the Ironbridge Gorge Museums about 15 miles from Shrewsbury: this World Heritage Site site should keep even the urchins happy, especially going back in time to Blists Hill Victorian Town or creeping down the old Tar Tunnel. Closer to your pitch but dating from further away in time, Bury Ditches Iron Age hill fort is between Clun and Bishop's Castle: go on to the latter for more walks, access to the Shropshire Way and the country’s oldest brewery, the Three Tuns. Well-behaved urchins can be rewarded at several family-friendly Shropshire attractions: if they liked Ironbridge they’ll probably be fond of the historic working farm at the Acton Scott estate, featured on the BBC’s Victorian Farm, or getting close to the natives at Telford’s Hoo Farm Animal Kingdom.
