  • CAMC members-only pitches a mile from the centre of Church Stretton
  • Ludlow and Shrewsbury half an hour away by train
  • Carp fishing lake on site; lovely views to Caer Caradoc
Fancy waking up to views of the Shropshire Hills National Landscape, then strolling just a couple of minutes to a nearby fishing lake? Members of the Caravan and Motorhome Club (CAMC) can do just that when they stay at New House Farm Certificated Location, just outside the market town of Church Stretton. Pitches here have lovely views of Caer Caradoc; it’s also pretty easy to get out for a hike on this 459-metre hill, since it’s less than half an hour away on foot. When you stay here, you can also schedule plenty of other Shropshire Hills walks or bike rides, including routes around popular spots like the Stiperstones and Carding Mill Valley. And that fishing? Well, that’s at the large lake on site, which is stocked with carp and open to all guests with the relevant licence. For those who aren’t into fishing, the lake provides an attractive backdrop for picnics, dog walks or just hours of waterside daydreaming… Being just on the edge of Church Stretton makes New House Farm a convenient place to be: the centre of town (for shops, pubs and cafés) is about a mile away, and there’s a railway station for outings to places like Ludlow and Shrewsbury (both about half an hour away). Entirely dedicated to touring guests, the site has got lots of handy features, including a wide turning from the road, large hardstanding and grass pitches, portable toilets, showers, and electric and mains water hookups. Kids are welcome, and there are a couple of large parks a few minutes’ walk away where they can have a good run around.

Liked Location and large flat pitches. Peaceful at night. EHU, toilet and shower.

Disliked No welcome or sign of owners made this feel a bit like a park up rather than CL. Fishing lake attracted people during the day who parked on the wet grass.

Liked Flat spacious pitch with lovely view to the fishing lake, hills and geese. EHU and water point close by. Fab location with lots of walks, close to Church Stretton, and peaceful nights. Hot water in shower/toilet hut. Just 5 spaces.

Disliked Poor drainage at water taps, lots of daytime visitors to fish in the lake, very muddy access by foot. Great to gave dedicated shower and toilet, but this could be so much better with the right equipment to avoid flooding the shower room and to clean up afterwards. With mud and dirt , it was impossible to clean and dry it properly.

Liked Spacious pitches with great views, quiet, very friendly owners and farmers. Walking distance to the centre of Church Stretton and easy access to many walks in the area.

Electric and water hookup easy.

Disliked Shower and toilet block is a basic but functional, but the weather and time of year will factor in as well in its use.

Liked The perfect location for exploring the Shropshire Hills. Plentiful walks directly from the campsite: Carding Mill Valley, Three Fingers, Caer Caradoc +++. Lovely peaceful views over the fishing lake and into the hills beyond. 15 min easy walk into Castle Stretton which has everything that you may need for a fuss free break away. This is everything that we look for in a CL site.

Disliked Nothing

Local attractions

At National Trust – Carding Mill Valley on the Long Mynd (10 minutes’ drive), you can hike on heather-covered hills, taking in splendid, far-reaching views of the Shropshire Hills. If you’re up for a moderately challenging walk, make a beeline for the Lightspout Waterfall, where you might catch a glimpse of red kites hovering in the skies above you. Dominated by a medieval castle that now hosts seasonal events (such as summer concerts), Ludlow (half an hour) has a lively market scene, with regular food and crafts stalls most days, plus occasional days dedicated to local producers or antiques. Grab a quiche or some cheese and cold cuts, and head to Linney Riverside Park for a waterfront picnic. Covered in heather and gorse, the dramatic jagged landscape of Stiperstones National Nature Reserve (35 minutes), near the Welsh border, is home to assorted wildlife – from lizards and frogs to birds of prey and butterflies.
