  • 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.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

From the manager: Hi Peter
Yes, we are sorry this happened. We have already spoken with the seasonal pitch people (not residential) who were close to you about it and they have apologised. Hopefully this won't happen again to any other camper.

The best!

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked I absolutely love staying at Wassell Grove Camping and Caravanning. The location is beautiful — peaceful, scenic, and the perfect place to unwind and escape for a while. The whole site has such a welcoming atmosphere, and it truly feels like a little hidden gem.

The owners are fantastic and always go above and beyond to make everyone feel welcome. Their friendliness and hard work really make a difference and are a huge reason why I keep coming back.

I’m a return customer and honestly consider this my “home from home” spot to visit. Every stay is relaxing, enjoyable, and something I look forward to each time. I can’t recommend it highly enough for anyone looking for a lovely camping and caravanning experience.

My only ask is that if you come, please respect the rules, pitch with consideration by giving others room and space, and be mindful so everyone can enjoy their stay just as much as you will.

Disliked Nothing.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked The beautiful views, the peacefulness. The spectacular sunrise at 04.30am. Very clean toilets and shower. And I found the lady and gentleman in reception/cafe seemed lovely.

Disliked The toilet and shower is a long uneven walk down a steep hill, but to come back up it feels like a mountaineering session, I dont have good mobility so did struggle however it wouldn't put me off returning I would just take a toilet and toilet tent. Menopause and 35c heatwave made it worse which isn't the site fault!

Liked Great pitches with plenty of space and a wonderful view. Everything is very well maintained, and the owners are extremely friendly. The animals are a real highlight for the children. It was also very quiet at night, and we slept wonderfully.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Spacious pitch, plenty of privacy, showers and toilets clean, beautiful views, saw baby goslings wondering with their parents. Lovely llamas munching away. Was local to me as I wanted to test out my tent, and had a peaceful night's sleep. Rained in the morning, and found out that my tent leaks!! A godsend as I'm heading to Wales by next week, and bought myself a new tent!!!

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).
