  • Adults-only rural glamping site 10 minutes' drive from Bridgnorth
  • 20 minutes' drive from the UNESCO-listed attractions of Ironbridge
  • Firepits and shared kitchen on site
Sometimes you just need a little escape, eh? You need a great swathe of open space, with rural views to gaze out over, friendly sheep in the neighbouring field and (fingers crossed) a gorgeous glowing sunset to admire while you sip something nice of an evening. Sound like just the tonic? Then hightail it to Highfield Escape, a Shropshire rural retreat 10 minutes’ drive from Bridgnorth and with super views over the Clee and Wrekin hills. Friendly owners Tina and Mark have clearly put a lot of thought into making their bijou little site a perfect place to relax. Firepits and outdoor seating are all set up for alfresco evenings, with a shared kitchen on hand for days when indoor prep seems preferable. Perhaps most crucially, the folks here have also chosen to keep this place for the sole use of grownups, and for only a handful of guests at a time – so you’re pretty much guaranteed plenty of peace and quiet to aid the soothing of stressed souls. Wrench yourself from your retreat to see some of your surrounds; canoeing, fishing, golf and tennis are all nearby, and there are plenty of attractions to explore, including UNESCO-listed Ironbridge and steam-powered rides on the Severn Valley Railway.

Local attractions

If you’ve got something of a nostalgic streak, you’ll be wanting to steam along for a 16-mile ride on the Severn Valley Railway from Bridgnorth (10 minutes’ drive); make a stop along the way at their Highley hub to get up close to a collection of old engines and see what damage can happen when a locomotive collides with a camel. And there’s plenty more heritage around here, too: make the 20-minute trip to UNESCO-listed Ironbridge to eye up the Iron Bridge itself and visit the ten museums around the town hailed as the place where the Industrial Revolution kicked off. Or you may prefer to wander through the house and gardens at Weston Park (25 minutes) or peruse the planes at the Royal Air Force Museum in Cosford (20 minutes). Not having kids in tow doesn’t mean skipping out the family-friendly attractions – you can just go at your own pace around the West Midland Safari Park (half an hour), the fairground at Treasure Island (40 minutes) or Drayton Manor theme park (an hour away).

Quirky Corner camping pod

Liked: The quirky pod was a little piece of heaven for us; we enjoyed our time there massively our only wish was that we could have stayed longer. The peacefulness of the site was a true highlight and we had exactly what we needed which was to be left to ourselves :) Our hosts were very pleasant on meeting and made it clear they were availiable if needed The facilities were far beyond what we were expecting; the bathroom and shower are of the highest standard, more than you would think for a small site. Everything you could need was in the cabin and even charging devices was not an issue. We really cannot speak highly enough about the whole experience on site. We plan on returning in the future perhaps when we can spend longer in the isolation. It was truly wonderful.

Buzzard bell tent

Liked: Me and my boyfriend came here for his birthday this weekend and we both had an amazing time. One highlight was being greeted by goats and geese whilst cooking our food. The facilities are superb, from a lovely toilet and shower stocked with what you need to an out door dining room with a table and chairs , a hot plate and a place to wash up. Both hosts , Tina and Mark, are incredibly hospitable. Everything we needed was supplied without trouble and very quickly. I would recommended this site to everyone
