  • 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

This peaceful, well-kept farm site offers a friendly welcome, modern, spotless facilities, and spacious pitches with great views. Enjoy nature's quiet, but note coin showers. On-site manager plans to add dishwashing sinks and improve pitch directions.

 Laura D. 1 review

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked A quiet, well kept campsite with a new heated shower block. Loved that the pitches are set up so that nobody parks in front of you to ruin the views. Half a mile walk to a traditional village pub. Good free wifi.

Disliked No washing up facilities for campervans but we were told this is coming.
Showers are coin operated (20p for 1 min, £1 for 5) This wasn't an issue as they are decent showers but we rarely carry cash so it was lucky we had some

Liked An outstanding site, on a peaceful Shropshire farm! The owners were very friendly and welcoming. The toilets and showers were immaculate.

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.
