Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked We had a lovely, friendly welcome on arrival and were able to pitch up wherever we liked. We chose a spacious pitch that had been cut into the longer grass, which made it feel a little more secluded/special. The toilets/showers/washing up block was absolutely fantastic and very modern. My daughter (7) loved the various swings dotted around the site and playing in the domes with other children. There's a footpath through the fields that takes you to the village of Welshampton, where there is a lovely pub. Will definitely be back!

A quiet site, friendly owners, modern and clean facilities x
Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked Lovely owners who were always so cheerful and helpful. The facilities were modern and clean. Our kids (aged 12 and 9) loved the play area. Loved our pitch and how sections were cut out of the wild grass - creating a large area just for us and stopping people walking near our tent. The communal fridge/freezer was really useful. The ice cream was yummy. We visited Hawkstone Park Follies which was 24 mins away and was incredible and shady which was perfect. There was no music playing which was a dream for me! Thank you for a lovely stay.

From the manager: Thankyou so much Louise for your kind words and great feedback.The cutout pitches were a new idea so really pleased with your thoughts.So glad the kids enjoyed themselves as it is so wonderful seeing them happy and playing.There is a charging point in the office actually , which we find safer for our guests?
Thankyou again and we look forward to seeing you again in the future LIin and Rog
