Liked: The site was really spacious, lots of different little areas. Basic but clean toilet facilities and great little shower block. Superb location and very helpful staff. Strong WiFi for such a big site.

Disliked: I could imagine there would be a bit of a que for the showers if the site was full/busier

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: Big site excellent location for a walk into the town centre, easy 15 minutes. Good space between vehicles and mainly level pitched, all with electric hookup and water. We set up near the toilet and shower block. It is a showground/ sports ground so facilities are basic, very popular site though, it was quite busy. Hats off to those brave souls in tents! We'll be going again.

Disliked: Toilets are basic but a lot of them. 4 shower cubicles, unisex, each one having shower, toilet and sink, bit like portacabins but did the job. Our electric went off - it rained non stop and there were 4 cables into a hook up box, bit inconvenient but we moved to the pitch opposite in the morning and that worked fine. Spiders in the cubicles, just needs a daily dust.

Local attractions

Once Shrewsbury has been well and truly explored (don’t forget a pitstop at The Mount, birthplace of Charles Darwin), venturing out into nature will be a welcome break from bricks and mortar. The site is a little over half an hour’s drive from the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, where scenic wanders, horse riding, gliding and paragliding are the order of the day. If those walking boots haven’t seen enough action, make tracks for Buttington (35 minutes' drive) to join the Offa’s Dyke long-distance path and follow 177 miles of England-Wales border – alternatively, rest weary legs with a scenic boat tour along the Severn, leaving 15 minutes away. There’s plenty of history hereabouts, so dive right in with a look inside the fab 18th-century mansion at Attingham Park (and a stroll around the gardens and parkland) or a stop at the spectacular Sunnycroft villa in nearby Telford. Go from finery to industry by trundling along to the Ironbridge Gorge UNESCO site to explore the birthplace of the industrial revolution, making time for the recreated Victorian town of Blists Hill, the Coalport China Museum and the world’s first ever cast-iron bridge. Stay in the past (the very, very distant past) with a trip to Wroxeter Roman City and Vineyard, or return to the present with some modern urban days: Telford is half an hour away and has a snowboard and skiing centre that should keep families entertained, while Birmingham Is a little over an hour and a half from base if a real big-city vibe is needed.
