  • Peaceful and secluded farm site on the banks of the River Severn
  • Private stretch of river and pond available for fishing
  • Breakfasts and café on site; firepit hire available
What a lot there is to do around this peaceful and secluded Mid Wales site a short hop from the Wales/England border. And you may well like to start with some fishing right there on Brook House Farm Camping and Caravan Site’s own stretch of the River Severn – in a lush countryside setting between Welshpool and Shropshire’s county town Shrewsbury. You may be meandering between countries on day trips but one constant in all this is the pristine views on site, with the park set in pretty countryside on the banks of the River Severn with buzzards and the occasional red kite soaring overhead. A spotlessly clean shower block is to hand for guests' use, along with a washing-up area on site. The site is based in the grounds of the Brook House Farm B&B, where you can have breakfast. Or tuck into nosh at the café, use the squeaky clean on-site kitchen, or hire a firepit to sizzle supper under the stars.

What customers say

This peaceful site by the River Severn boasts clean facilities, a friendly atmosphere, and a popular on-site cafe/bar. Guests enjoyed the beautiful location and welcoming staff. However, some visitors noted that the limited number of showers and toilets could lead to queues during busy periods, and a few mentioned occasional cleanliness issues.

Liked A small site with good clean facilities. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful. The small cafe on site was very popular with both campers and locals. Julia, the owner, was very kind and popped over a couple of times to ensure everything was okay and to invite us to events taking place on the campsite.
Close to a number of National Trust properties with good walking in the area.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Campsite and setting absolutely beautiful beer gardens lovely staff very friendly and helpful really enjoyed our stay nice little find to be honest
Plenty of walks and nice pubs off site dogs loved it too
Pitch is flat and clean and plenty to look around on site

Disliked For the amount of pitches there are only 2 showers and 3 toilets which did cause queues and toilet rolls ran out quickly so bring your own. The owners did say they are looking to increase and improve this as it’s such a great site it’s the only thing that lets it down but if you plan ahead and expect this the site is a must visit and if this is resolved then the site owners would have nailed a absolutely fantastic site
Definitely recommend

Liked Setting was lovely

Disliked Toilets were filthy. Campsite was chaotic and expensive, people were clearly there to drink and not respect others. There was no policing of the noise. People were driving through the site throughout the night, shouting and swearing throughout the night, revving a motorcycle at 1am. It was a loud site with no noise control, and the toilets needed a good clean. No WiFi

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Sorry to hear this.we take pride in our clean toilet block.This weekend we had a couple of paddle borders came in off the river and did make a mess,which a member of the public bought it to my attention and I was onto it.There is a mop and cleaning materials for them to clean up after themselves.
Then a group in the lodges decided to start a sing song,which I was only made aware of late by way of a message and I was asleep.
We do have a noise policy,which I do tell people,there is a site rules board and it is on our website with Pitchup.
I do apologise.I was about until 11 and it was quite and peaceful.
We do take pride in our usually peaceful site,unfortunately there is now and again one that has to spoil it.
We do have a lot of repeat business,has a lovely quite site.

Very pleasant lady, chatty and helpful, lovely onside cafe and bar…

Lodge (no pets, double)

Liked Beautifull campsite very tranquil and relaxed which we was looking for, to have a little time out. The bar and cafe was a plus so didn’t need to go too far to enjoy a cold drink.
The owners and hospitality was amazing both interacted and enjoyed company with us. I can say there was nothing we didn’t enjoy will definitely be going back.

Thank you so much Tasha and chris

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked We chose Brook House Farm as a perfect location to take our four months old son and labrador for a night away in the van. We weren't disappointed. We were able to park right down by the river! Enjoying a peaceful evening watching the birds along the riverbank.Location and the surrounding views were stunning. Due to the quietness of the site we had full privacy in the area we parked our van. The facilities were fab with clean toilet and shower rooms. The food and bar area were lovely and we enjoyed a drink there in the evening. Staff and owner were very friendly and welcoming. Thank you for a lovely first camping experience for our little boy.

Disliked Nothing.

Local attractions

Lace up your walking boots: with Brook House Farm midway between Welshpool and Shropshire’s county town Shrewsbury, it’s a shrewd place to stop to see the Shropshire Hills and Mid Wales on an active family hol. Shropshire has over 3500 miles’ worth of right of way paths for longer distance hikes and shorter strolls; the 210-mile Severn Way passes along nearby for taking a hike along it on a day trip or stopping off at Brook Farm if you’re attempting it all. The Offa’s Dyke Path can be accessed from here too: the very helpful Brook House Farm owners can arrange a shuttle bus for you to join the trail if you let them know in advance. For less tired feet, a plethora of outdoor pursuits within easy reach of the farm includes horse riding, mountain biking and golf; paragliding and lessons are available at nearby Rodney’s Pillar and the Long Mynd. Land some slippery characters by casting off on the River Severn: Brook House’s own stretch of river yields barbel into double figures, but there are shoals of other nearby spots to land salmon, trout and grayling. There are some commercial fisheries within 20 minutes’ drive to thrash things out at too, such as Weston Pool near Oswestry. Once you’ve cleaned off your catch and soothed your sore feet, jump into the car for some historical highlights: the medieval fortress Powis Castle with its famous French and Italian garden; Shrewsbury Castle with the Shropshire Regimental Museum Trust; the Red Castle and Grotto Hill of the 18th-century Hawkstone Historic Park & Follies, and the town of Shrewsbury, with over 600 listed buildings.
