Non-electric grass and earth tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: amazing place .....the owner nigel was great, checked on us several times , and helped get us out of the mud as car was stuck, only stayed one night as the rain was constant, but could not recommend it enough ....total peace and quiet

From the manager: Hi Justin Thanks for the great review under very trying weather conditions we had some sport getting you out I was amazed the Quad actually managed to do the job but you followed my instructions and did a great job in the car . Better luck next time but we had a good laugh Nigel

Amazing views, away from it all.

Non-electric grass and earth tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Remote location with excellent views and peaceful surroundings. Dawn chorus by birds was amazing. Plenty of walking from campsite.

Disliked: 1 field only offered - no 80 acres! The field is steep slope with the ground very rough so not good for tents, chemical toilet with no water, water tap located in separate field away from pitch sites. Value for money compared to other site … 1-10 =1

From the manager: Well I am truly shocked by this review I can’t recall having a 2 before the weather was very trying this weekend but I got no negative feedback from any of our guests if we do something wrong I want to know so changes can be made on my twice daily visits to all pitches I ask if all is ok , all was good with everyone . We didn’t have any solo guests on this weekend ! All were couples or families 🤔 We offered 3 fields over 35 acres Portaloos are clearly stated in our details here they come with Gell hand cleaner we keep them very clean they are constantly checked . Our pitches are huge and a lot of work is done to make them as smooth as possible no one complained , our land is gently sloping but our pitches are mostly flat or have flat areas within them . All guests are made aware in our welcome text message of the water run we do and all are advised to bring large carriers with them for us to collect , fill and return to them each morning of there stay . We do our best to offer a high standard of service whilst retaining the very natural aspects and living with Nature experience combined with the space and privacy we offer and I thank this client for his very positive review on the natural elements he experienced here . We advise all potential clients to read our description fully to avoid any disappointments upon arrival or during there back to Nature experience stay with us . Nigel

Non-electric grass and earth campervan pitch

Liked: I was a little apprehensive before arriving due to the amount of rain we had and if my van was going to make it up onto the fields. I met Nigel on arrival who was very friendly and he found me the most incredible flat pitch just off of the track to park the van up. The views were lovely. This is the perfect site for some quiet time away from it all. The track up to the site is long however just take it slowly and there are no problems. Great location for exploring the hills. If I go back to Shropshire I would definitely stay again.

Non-electric grass and earth tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Remote, peaceful spot with spectacular views. If you like back-to-basic camping with natural campfires and stunning views then this is the place to pitch. The stars on a clear night were spectacular as there's no light pollution. Nigel was very welcoming and showed us to our pitch. We had a whole field to ourselves for our 4 night stay, (which is just how we like to camp.) If you leave your water carrier out it will be filled up & returned to you in the morning, which would be very handy if you are camping in one of the upper fields. Can't wait to return and becoming one of Nigel's regular customers. Tina, Gordon & the 2 dogs.

Disliked: Going home!

Local attractions

It’s the walking trails that will lure you to this part of the world – the moorlands of Carding Mill Valley and the Long Mynd (40 minutes) are particularly popular for pottering around, while the Offa’s Dyke Path (55 minutes) is prime for long-distance roams. The site’s surrounding area is also coveted by walkers, with a wide network of footpaths to follow including one leading to the rocky Devil's Chair outcrop at Stiperstones National Nature Reserve. After access to attractions? Navigate your way to the National Trust’s Attingham Park for explores of an 18th-century estate home to deer or swing by Stokesay Castle (45 minutes) enroute to the lovely Ludlow (an hour), a town with Tudor-style buildings to gaze at while meandering around the market-filled streets.
