  • 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 free; 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

This adult-only campsite offers a peaceful canal-side location near Whitchurch. Guests rave about the spotlessly clean, modern, and warm restrooms. The convenient on-site cafe, friendly staff, and well-kept grounds with a fishing pond and dog areas are highlights. Minor road noise and pitch upkeep were noted, but overall sentiment is very positive, with many planning a return trip.

FHU cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked Just spent 3 nights at this lovely campsite. The pitch was great, clean toilets and showers. The owners are lovely and friendly.
We picked this campsite as it is alongside the canal and so we could launch our canoe on to it easily. The dog friendly cafe serves an excellent breakfast too.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked Everything,perfect stay😁great band on the Saturday night,already booked to come again.We liked the 12 o clock check in time as it gives us time to set up before a stroll into Whitchurch to enjoy the many pubs.

Disliked People still fishing until 3 in the morning,fishing alarm would go off,not a big problem for us but I know it woke the couple up in the tent next door.I wonder if pitches could be marked out for camping?

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.
