  • Peaceful site set over 20 acres 10 minutes' drive from Stourbridge
  • Half an hour from the West Midland Safari Park and Cadbury World
  • Family- and dog-friendly site with three large fishing lakes
Rods at the ready, folks – Wassell Grove Camping and Caravanning is rather more than a mere place to lay your head for the night… this 20-acre site also happens to be one of the West Midlands’ finer choices for a spot of fishing. Not one, not two but a generous three lakes await your bait here, with carp (often in excess of a hefty 10lb), bream and roach among the critters you may hook from the waters. Eager anglers should find plenty to keep them happy here, but there are also areas suitable for beginners… perhaps it’s time to start instructing the nippers in the fine art of fishing? And if you fancy staying here but have pretty much zero interest in fishing? That’s completely fine: non-rod-wielders are equally welcome to stay here and enjoy the peaceful woodland surrounds, perhaps using the place as a base for some lovely local hikes or family days out (Cadbury World and West Midland Safari Park, both less than half an hour away, would be good places to start on that front). Eats can be had throughout the day at the site’s own café (with both hot and cold dishes on the menu) or you can get the coals stoked on your barbecue; supermarkets are 10 minutes away in Stourbridge for supplies. Hagley, a few minutes’ drive from the site, has a couple of pubs for pints and meals out.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked: We loved everything! The nice owner, the alpacas and horses, the field, beautiful views from our pitch. But one thing that stands out for me are the bathrooms - there are 3 spacious shower rooms: and they are spotless! Always dry and clean sinks, toilets, floors, no mould on tiles, brand new shower curtains and immaculate shelving for all bits and bobs from my cosmetic bag. For the first time camping I didn’t feel uncomfortable in a public bathroom. Amazing!

Disliked: Not a single thing!

Unpowered concrete and grass motorhome site

Liked: Beautiful site with stunning views. Horses, ducks & alpacas on site were fun for our kids. Good facilities with clean toilets & shower rooms. Great cafe where we enjoyed a delicious cooked breakfast. Both showers & cafe were at the bottom of a fairly steep hill, which is worth knowing for anyone with mobility issues.

Unpowered concrete and grass motorhome site

Liked: Fantastic views, peaceful, well run campsite. Drinking water on camping field. Elsan, grey waste water and rubbish a short level walk. Toilets and showers are a walk down hill. Facilities are clean and well kept and the cafe is very good value. The lakes, alpacas and geese are a pleasure to see.

Disliked: The hard standing had large pot holes so we couldn't get level. However, the grass was firm, dry and level so not an issue on this occasion.

Local attractions

Want to stretch your legs (perhaps after sitting by the lake for a lengthy period of time)? The friendly folk on site can point you towards the best places locally for a long walk or a short stroll: a perennial fave around these parts is the Wyre Forest National Nature Reserve – once you’ve seen it from ground level you can take a gander from on high by screaming along the ziplines at the Go Ape adventure park. If you like your outings to make you feel a bit clever, take in a bit of local history with visits to Hagley Hall (five minutes’ drive), the rock houses at Kinver Edge or the Black Country Living Museum (25 minutes). Each one aims to bring its own slice of history to life, so tour all three for an excellent insight into how people lived in the past. Learn about the natural world instead at the West Midland Safari Park (25 minutes away): there are walk-through and drive-through animal exhibits here, along with animatronic dinosaurs and theme park rides for when it’s time to take a break. Sweet-toothed guests also mustn’t miss out on a trip to the chocolate-themed extravaganza that is Cadbury World (25 minutes).
