  • 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 cement/asphalt and grass RV campsite

Liked Nice little site, nice little walk around ponds and woodland
Quiet, a great overnight stop.
Great if you like fishing, some really good ponds

Disliked Can do with a shower block and toilets at the camping area, it’s got a fresh water point to and elsen point at hand but showers and toilets are a bit of a trek up and down a steep old hill

Recommend to friends Visit again

This is a great place to go camping or pitch your camper van.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked We had a great pitch with plenty of space. The weather was a bit challenging, but it didn't take away from the enjoyment and positive experience there. In general, the staff are friendly and helpful and the area is quiet and relaxing. We also liked that there were decent toilet and shower facilities and they have a cafe there. I also saw Wassell staff loan a small gas cooker to a camper who needed one. Another big tick for me.

Disliked 2 cars stopped in the middle of the drive way and I couldn't get past, to my tent, so I went around them. Later, one of the people who had stopped on the drive way (from Wassell I believe), drove up to me and said that I shouldn't drive on the grass, as it churns it up when it is wet. This annoyed me as I wouldn't have gone on the grass he and his friend hadn't stopped so no one could get by.

From the manager: Hi Maurice. Sorry to hear this. Can you tell me a bit more about what happened regarding your stay and not being able to drive on the grass as we are allowing people to drive on the grass at the moment (unless it's a heavy vehicle). You may only be able to respond to us by email. Look forward to hearing from you. Regards. Paul

Liked A Friendly welcome greets you and your able to choose where you pitch your tent. Nice country walks and well situated for nearby attractions

Disliked Toilets are at the bottom of short but steep hill, but the alpacas take your mind of walk back up to the site 😊

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).
