  • Small, friendly Staffordshire campsite in the rural village of Hixon
  • Shugborough Hall 15 minutes’ drive and Alton Towers half an hour
  • Dog-friendly pitches with electric hook-ups; pub five minutes’ walk
Heading Staffordshire way? If you’re after somewhere small and friendly to lay your head, make a beeline for Oak Deer Country Park in the rural village of Hixon. This peaceful and well-tended site has far-reaching rural views and on clear, cloudless days you’ll be rewarded with spectacularly colourful sunsets. The pitches have facilities including drinking-water standpipes and pay-as-you-go electric hook-ups, plus a unisex toilet. Several lights come on around the site so you can walk safely after dark – however, these go off at midnight. Right next to the campsite is a field dedicated to exercising your four-legged companions; for longer walkies you can follow a public footpath along the Trent and Mersey Canal (20 minutes’ stroll) and across the surrounding farmland. Just please keep your dogs on a lead and under control around the site, and pick up any droppings. There are also lots of handy amenities close at hand; you can walk to a convenience store, a couple of takeaways and a pub in less than five minutes.

Liked Wardens on site was really helpful and welcoming. Beautiful site, very well managed and cared for a credit to the warden who makes this site his passion. Well done. Handy chip shop, Chinese, convenient stores and 2 walkable pubs. Walks off site, great quiet location with lovely country scenery.

Disliked Nothing one of the best sites we have stayed.

Power optional cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked It was beautifully kept and was like staying on someone’s front lawn. Very peaceful with a lovely dog walk area cut into longer grass which was great. The wardens were super friendly and gave lots of local info. There is even a co-op shop literally right next door to the entrance which is open till 22:00 hrs too. If I was in the area again I would be happy to use again.

Disliked Maybe a little expensive for a site without showers, toilets etc.
Not really something that the wardens can do anything about but there must be a kennels somewhere nearby that you can hear barking if outside.

Power optional cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Had a fantastic couple of days here. James and Chris met us in arrival and gave us a quick run down on what was what then left us to set up and settle in. Both guys were really friendly and very helpful. The site is very clean, tidy and well kept. There is a co-op at the top of the drive, a pub, chinese and chippy all within easy walking distance. We will definitely be returning
