  • Family-friendly Shropshire touring site on a working farm
  • Views to Caer Caradoc, 10 minutes' drive away; 25 mins to Ironbridge
  • Accessible bathrooms available; dogs welcome; pub half a mile away
All the sights and sounds of the farm are waiting for guests at Upper Farm Caravan Site, a Shropshire touring park that’s part of a working farm about half a mile from the village of Cardington. You’ll get a friendly welcome from the owners and the resident animals alike at this quiet rural site – and you’ll get some fabulous views as well, looking out over Wenlock Edge, Caer Caradoc and Brown Clee Hill. And that lovely combination makes this a splendid place to slow down for a few days, while also exploring all the walks and other attractions around this scenic area. In fact you can start by setting off along the footpaths that run through the farm (particularly handy for those who are bringing their dog along). Everything here has been nicely thought out for guests – for starters, you’ll be staying on spacious pitches that are well maintained and separated by hedges for a bit of privacy and shelter. Each one has an electric hookup, and you’ll also have access to shared facilities including a chemical disposal point, wifi and bathrooms and modern bathrooms with showers and toilets. With level access throughout and accessible bathrooms, it’s also nicely set up for guests with reduced mobility. How you spend your days around here is up to you – perhaps you’d like to visit the 10 museums of Ironbridge, clamber up Caer Caradoc or spend some time exploring the lovely towns of Ludlow and Shrewsbury. One thing’s for sure, though – a trip (or few) to the local 15th-century pub should be on the schedule for excellent meals and local ales.

What customers say

Lovely, peaceful farm campsite. Spotless, modern facilities with great showers. Generous pitches with countryside views. Owners are friendly, setting is rural and quiet. Dog-friendly pub nearby. A few minor points noted regarding pitching directions and washing-up facilities.

Liked The peace and quiet. Morning wake up call with the cows mooing. 2 bathrooms that were impeccably clean and of a really high standard. Owner was a pleasant guy too and took time out of his evening (we arrived at 7pm) to have a chat and make us feel welcomed.

Disliked Leaving.

 Ellie R. 1 review

Powered concrete and grass caravan site

Liked The quietness of the site and the lack of people about. It was perfect.
The facilities were perfect for just myself, with plenty of space in both cubicles. The pitches were a great size and the owners were friendly.

Disliked The only thing that I would say is that there was no information as to where to pitch up. If there hadn't been someone watering the plants when I arrived I would have been none the wiser as to where to site myself. A camper van turned up during my stay and they seemed lost also as to where to pitch up. I would suggest that maybe I note on the site to guide people as to where to pitch themselves would be useful.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Lovely to meet you Ellie and will add a note on the booking site to make it more clear where to pitch up on arrival. Glad you enjoyed your stay with us

Liked Lovely site. Good pich size and the owner was lovely.
Shower and toilet block were very clean. Overall a great stay.

Disliked In a small camper so an outside washing up area would of been beneficial for the pich up end of the site.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Glad you enjoyed your stay with us . A washing up area is something we will look to install as soon as possible.
