Liked: A peaceful, well kept site with friendly staff. Toilets and showers were immaculate. Regretfully , due to heavy downpours and a very cold night we decided to return home a day earlier than planned, but are looking forward to returning next year to continue exploring the beautiful Shropshire towns and villages, hopefully in better weather!
Disliked: Nothing at all.

Liked: Absolutely beautiful site, it was very peaceful and staff were very friendly, I would go as far as to say the garden/grass/plants and bushes were manicured perfectly and that’s a plus for me, the site and pitches kept very neat and tidy
Disliked: The only thing that was a shame was the food bar wasn’t open due to staff shortage

Liked: We’ve been here before & love how friendly & helpful the staff are. The site is absolutely immaculate as are the toilets & showers. The bar is a great touch so you don’t have to worry about getting home after a drink. There’s a lovely fenced in dog run too, not huge but enough to let the dog off the lead for a run. We’ll definitely be back again soon.

Liked: Beautiful site with lovely filled flower beds all around. Nice privacy hedges in-between each pitch. Tranquil water fountain in the middle. The bar and staff were welcoming and friendly. Toilets and showers were spotlessly clean. Recycling well planned in separate bins. We visited so many places in the area, especially lunches and evening meals. We will definitely come back here and definitely pass on to our other caravan and motorhome friends.
Disliked: I'm all for saving water but the only thing I can say I disliked was the shower button switched off far too quickly, maybe 20 seconds at tops!

Liked: EVERYTHING! Really well laid out pitches, hedges to give privacy but still able to enjoy the site. Wonderful shop on site and great bar. Food served at weekends which looked great. The staff were perfect! Even popped round in the morning to let me know eggs had been delivered for our breakfast. Great for dogs as area to let them run free and a further magical walk around the pond on leads. Showers spotless. Toilets were super clean. All the campers looked so happy. Peaceful site with a bit of nightlife at the bar. WiFi was as good as home, even registration plate recognition to open gates. I could rave about this site for hours. It’s a must visit
Disliked: Nothing at all.

Liked: Nice site. Very well kept. Friendly welcome. Great little bar.
Disliked: Didn’t use the shower but have seen better. Shame the bar closes at 8pm weekdays. When the weather is poor it’s nice to have somewhere to go in the evening.
