Tents in one of the dingles

  • Dog-friendly site on 15 acres of Onny Valley countryside
  • River for pond dipping, paddling and fishing
  • Popular pub serving food directly accessible from the site
Pooh! Pooh Sticks, that is – if your kids have never played it, a stay at The Green Caravan Park is the place to teach them the art. A river – the small and shallow River East Onny – runs through it for paddling, pond dipping, the aforementioned Pooh Sticks and fishing: pick up a cheap net at the site shop and keep your little shrimps entertained for hours for mere pennies. Once they’re dried off, there’s on-land nature spotting too, at the area set aside as a nature wilderness, a play area and space galore for bike riding or outdoor games. The Green Caravan Park has several riverside pitches, with others on the park island, in the two dingles, on The Plateau, in the play area field or in a five-acre meadow; electric pitches are in a separate field with both riverside and hardstanding spots. The park covers 15 acres of Onny Valley countryside in a National Landscape between the Long Mynd and Stiperstones Hills: it’s no wonder it’s been called ‘a little gem’ by previous happy campers. Dogs can stretch their paws at the dog walk and exercise area on site (please keep dogs on leads in other areas of the park and clear up after them in all areas). Food is well covered too: the popular family-friendly Inn on the Green serves home-cooked food and is directly accessible from the park (pre-booking comes highly recommended), and there are several country inns in the local area – steak and ale pies at The Crown get particular thumbs up.

What customers say

This neat spot has great owners, a lovely quiet spot with a stream. Campers loved the big pitches, clean loos (some old), and nearby pubs/shops. Good for families with lots for kids. Some noted weak showers and occasional smells. New owners are fixing things up.

Stuart B.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch (super)

Liked Very good location for walking into the hills. Also a pub right next to the site. Excellent flat pitch, there is plenty of space between pitches if you have a 'super pitch'. Other fields looked crowded but then it was May Bank holiday weekend ! The owners are very friendly and welcoming. On Saturday evening there was a lovely pizza van on site. Toilet/shower block is adequate despite it being a busy weekend.

Disliked Toilet block was a bit dirty by the end of the day. It had rained and the site was busy so lots of people walking in with mud and wet grass on shoes, it needed another clean.

Electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked Had a pitch next to the river with plenty of space. This was our first outing with Flossie our autotrail. Super relaxing weekend getting to know her, watching the wildlife and enjoying the fine sunshine..
The park is in a lovely location and well maintained. Facilities were spotless.
Rachel was a lovely host with a super knowledge of the area.

Disliked The WiFi was poor. However for me the disconnection was welcome.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Many thanks for your review & kind words. We're so pleased you choose us to enjoy your first outing in Flossie. The free WiFi unfortunately disconnected during your stay which we have just become aware of but we're thrilled you enjoyed your relaxing time watching the amazing wildlife around the 15 acre park. We very much look forward to welcoming you back.

Electric gravel motorhome pitch

Liked Great location with large flat pitches. The facilities were clean. Local pub x 2 for food, the Inn on the Green was very good (we didn’t get to the Crown, also close by). Great location for walking or cycling the area. We will come back here for sure.

Disliked It’s a large site and I would guess the showers etc would become busy.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Many thanks for your review & for pointing out the opportunity to walk & cycle from the park. It is a large site & the facility block can get busy but interestingly, we haven't encountered a queue for the shower. We very much look forward to welcoming you both back soon.

Local attractions

Many visitors to The Green Caravan Park come for Shropshire strolls around the calm country lanes and hills, along the Offa’s Dyke path or from nearby village Wentnor. The park is between the Stiperstone Hills and the Long Mynd, which make up the biggest area of heathland in the Shropshire hills: walk the five and a half miles of the Stiperstone Ridge from the Knolls car park for magnificent views towards the Long Mynd. Folk flock to the area for the birdwatching too: keep an eye out for red kites, plovers and buzzards around the Stiperstones, which is a national nature reserve. This is also castle country: Stokesay, Powis, Montgomery, Clun and Ludlow castles are all within easy driving distance. Have a wander around the festival and foodie town of Ludlow after seeing the castle or see the castle, abbey and over 660 listed buildings of medieval town Shrewsbury, both half an hour away. Industrialists will be kept busy at nearby Snailbeach Lead Mine and historic Ironbridge and the Ironbridge Gorge Museums about 15 miles from Shrewsbury: this World Heritage Site site should keep even the urchins happy, especially going back in time to Blists Hill Victorian Town or creeping down the old Tar Tunnel. Closer to your pitch but dating from further away in time, Bury Ditches Iron Age hill fort is between Clun and Bishop's Castle: go on to the latter for more walks, access to the Shropshire Way and the country’s oldest brewery, the Three Tuns. Well-behaved urchins can be rewarded at several family-friendly Shropshire attractions: if they liked Ironbridge they’ll probably be fond of the historic working farm at the Acton Scott estate, featured on the BBC’s Victorian Farm, or getting close to the natives at Telford’s Hoo Farm Animal Kingdom.
