Family-friendly site in the Shropshire Hills, near the Welsh border
Offa’s Dyke Path 10 minutes’ drive; Ludlow and Shrewsbury 40 minutes
Close to hiking and biking trails; campfires and barbecues allowed

Have bike, will travel… If you’re itching to let rip on your mountain bike and are looking for a site close to hills, ridges and challenging trails, Runnis Meadow Camping might just tick all of those boxes. Sitting on the banks of the River West Onny, close to the Welsh border, this family-friendly site has easy access to cycling and walking trails within the spectacular Shropshire Hills. The rugged landscape of Stiperstones National Nature Reserve (15 minutes’ drive), an area of quartzite rock formations, can be explored on foot or by bike. Keep an eye out for red kites and skylarks while you’re there. Walkers can also tackle Offa’s Dyke Path, which follows the English-Welsh border, and Corndon Hill (both 10 minutes’ drive), while mountain-bikers might like to sample the routes in the Carding Mill Valley and Long Mynd (half an hour). In terms of facilities, the site has fresh water on tap, plus showers and a toilet block. There are firepits for hire and bags of logs to buy, and barbecues are allowed. For provisions, you can head into the town of Bishop’s Castle (10 minutes), which also has numerous restaurants and takeaways. There are also several good pubs nearby that would make good rest stops on your walk or bike ride.

Liked: Lovely quiet site in the beautiful Shropshire hills.
Loved the setting, toilet/shower blocks were clean and had everything we needed.
Nice touches like having goalposts and swing ball for campers to use, as well as a help yourself cake shop in the field.
Lovely little stream on site too, which the kids very much enjoyed.
Pitches large and level.
Owner really friendly and helpful.
Able to hire fire pit and purchase logs, which was wonderful for the evenings.

Liked: What a beautiful site this is. A flat field surrounded by stunning nature. Facilities fabulous. Full bathrooms with shower sink loo. Spotlessly clean. Such a treat to have proper flushing toilets when wild camping. Firepit hire very reasonable @£10 for pit and logs. Perfect for a clear night when dark skies could be properly enjoyed. The welcome was very friendly and it felt very secure with the gate shut. Highly recommended.

Disliked: Nothing.

Liked: The hospitality was great, welcomed as we arrived and even a text message prior to our arrival informing us of our pitch.

The space is lovely, great views of the hills and perfect for stargazing, never seen so many star’s in my life.

Facilities onsite were really good. Showers were lovely, hot water whenever you needed and the facilities were very clean. Everything you need for a peaceful camping trip.

Dog friendly and all enclosed to give you a piece of mind, additional bonus of a lovely stream for the dog to play around in the hotter months.

Football goals and games for those with families which is a lovely touch. And the fire pits were perfect and reasonably priced (as was the wood).

Lots of great amenities near by, shops, local pubs and plenty of fantastic walks (woods and hills, spectacular views etc).

Would recommend to anyone considering and will be back again next year. Thanks Runnis Meadow for having us.

Local attractions

The remains of an Iron Age fort are not the only draw at Roundton Hill National Nature Reserve (15 minutes’ drive). This Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) is also a haven for bats (who roost in disused lead mines), lizards and butterflies, plus birds such as yellowhammers and woodpeckers. Had enough of grilling your own meals? A thriving dining scene awaits in Ludlow (40 minutes). For a small market town, Ludlow has a surprising amount of award-winning restaurants, plus traditional pubs and deli shops selling local specialities. If you visit in September, you might also catch the food festival, which takes place inside the medieval castle. In addition to its castle and cathedral, Shrewsbury (40 minutes) is known for the Quarry, a garden stretching along the River Severn. There is plenty to do here besides admiring colourful flower beds and relaxing on the lawn: National Cycle Route 81 skirts the water, you can hire canoes, or let the kids tire themselves out at the Quarry Splash Park.
