  • Adults-only site steps from the Shropshire Union Canal
  • Alderford Lake five minutes' drive; Market Drayton 25 minutes
  • Canalside for dog walks; on-site fishing and a café
If you had thoughts on an ideal setting for a hol between England and Wales, Hadley Park might well be it. It's in the Shropshire countryside on the border with Wales, next to the Shropshire Union Canal, and a handsomely scenic walk from Whitchurch, Shropshire's oldest market town. Hadley Park is a family-owned and run site that's set up for adults only. It has a small pond where guests can fish for a small fee per rod (maximum of two rods), a big sundeck overlooking the pond, and a fully licensed on-site café serving fresh local produce. You can also have your hair smartened up in the Hadley Park salon: just enquire when booking using the details in your booking confirmation email. Amenities include a launderette and a washing-up area; there's also a chemical disposal point, and a modern well-kept toilet and shower block with disabled facilities. The park is adults-only and welcomes well-behaved dogs. A service station with fast food and coffee outlet is 400 yards away.

What customers say

Awesome adult-only spot with spotless, toasty facilities. Lovely canal walks nearby. Peaceful vibes and a great cafe. Mostly well-kept, but a few noted road noise and pitch access.

Fully-serviced concrete slab caravan site

Liked Pitch size was decent, only had the option of a serviced pitch. The toilet block and dishwashing area were both very clean.
Access to the canal where you could walk along one side as the opposite side is private moorings.

Disliked Could maybe route the path from the huts to the toilet block a bit better as the people in the huts kept walking through our pitch to use the facilities. The seasonal vans (I presume), at the entrance are looking tired and dirty and this is the first impression you will have as you enter the site.

The Waterside shepherd's hut

Liked The hut was lovely. Very clean and tidy with all the essentials. Just take a cool bag and ice blocks if you’re using fresh milk.
The on-site toilets/showers were kept extremely clean and tidy and it was nice to have the music on in there.
Dawn the host was lovely and very welcoming and we had some amazing breakfasts in the onsite cafe. This place is amazing value for money and I would definitely recommend it.

Disliked Not really a dislike but just be prepared for very poor mobile coverage as the hut does not receive WiFi.

Recommend to friends Visit again

Will definitely be back.

Randolf camping pod (no pets)

Liked Lovely cosy pod Randolph with double bed , kettle, TV , electric sockets, plates , cups , glasses , cutlery and a bottle of water .
The hosts were friendly and helpful, the onsite cafe does a great breakfast.
Nearby Whitchurch is a lovely place with some really old buildings, a good market on the Saturday we were there and everyone was really friendly. Plenty to see and do nearby.

Disliked Nothing although no WiFi so you need to use data , I didn't find that a problem.

Recommend to friends Visit again

A great site , highly recommend and would love to visit again.

Joyce camping pod (no pets)

Liked The hosts are lovely, friendly but not intrusive. The pod was spotless and had just about everything you could need , far more than expected, including pots , mugs , glasses a bottle of water and cutlery, a kettle, electric sockets and even a TV .
You just need to take a cooker , (we opted for a camping gas cooker, there is even a plinth to put it on ) , pans and utensils, we took a large bottle of water for drinks, an electric cool box , we used our own bedding, (I also used a mattress topper as I'm used to one )
The shower/toilet block is also modern and clean. There is a proper washing up area with a communal fridge.
There is a pond with a fountain and a seating area and a brilliant on site cafe that is open from 9am to 3pm .
All in all a lovely site with plenty to do in the area , we particularly enjoyed the British Ironworks Centre. There's an Aldi supermarket, Starbucks, McDonald's and garage really close by . Would definitely visit again.

Disliked It is a little close to a busy road but we didn't find it really bothered us and it makes the site easy to find .
I needed to use a mattress topper but most people would probably be fine .

Local attractions

Staying close to home from Hadley Park, the old Shropshire town of Whitchurch is less than a mile away, and the walks of the Sandstone Trail as well as the hacks of the Bishop Bennet Way are easily accessible via the Shropshire and Union Canal on site. Elsewhere, several famed Shropshire and Cheshire sights are within 20 miles of the park, like Chester Cathedral and the city's Roman ruins and amphitheatre; Chester Zoo and Chester Racecourse; the fab follies of Hawkestone Park, and the llamas, alpacas and 50 acres of greenery of Cholmondeley Castle Gardens. Nearby Shrewsbury is famed for its annual flower show and for its Darwin Trail commemorating the life and work of evolution dude Charles Darwin who was born in the town. More modernly, a good range of plays are held at the new Severn Theatre and several riverside pubs and restaurants are around at which to while the night away. The bars, cafés and independent shops of the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Llangollen are within driving distance: other top town picks are a picnic in Riverside Park, a stroll along Victoria Promenade, and a steam straight ahead on the Llangollen Railway.
