  • Large hardstanding pitches on a Staffordshire working farm near Stone
  • World of Wedgwood 20 minutes’ drive; Alton Towers half an hour
  • Dogs welcome; dog-walking and dog-grooming service available on site
Hands up who’s after a peaceful family retreat in the splendid Staffordshire countryside. Well, you can stop looking – and get booking at Woodview. This caravan site sits on the edge of a working farm in Morrillow Heath, one of six hamlets making up the parish of Leigh, a 15-minute drive from the market town of Stone. Hardstanding pitches (which come with electric hook-up and water points, not to mention rural views) can comfortably accommodate one vehicle and an awning. In addition to a shed housing a communal fridge and a washing-up area with hot water, there are spotlessly maintained toilet facilities. However, please note that there are no showers on site. Canine buddies are welcome, though they will have to be kept on a lead at all times. What’s more, owners Claire and Dave offer a dog-walking service as well as a dog-grooming service, so you don’t have to worry about leaving your dog behind while you check out some of the attractions in the vicinity, from Shugborough Estate (25 minutes’ drive) to Alton Towers theme park (half an hour). Of course, there are also plenty of places to explore with your dog at your side, including the woodland at Dimmingsdale Valley, the hills and heathland at Cannock Chase Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (both half an hour) and Staffordshire Moorlands District (35 minutes), just on the outskirts of Peak District National Park. There are supermarkets and independent shops in both Stone and Uttoxeter, which also have plenty of dining options should you wish to give cooking a miss.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: The site was really quiet and the owners were brilliant. They were very friendly and even managed to organise a visit to the local farm to see some calves for our little girl while they groomed our dogs!

Disliked: The pitches were quite soft and there had been a lot of rain so it was a bit difficult to pitch and level. Due to the rain the grass got extremely muddy through the week. Unfortunately the only water taps were on the grass so the aqua rolls got very muddy. Maybe some gravel between the pitches and taps would be good.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Woodview is the ideal “get away from it all” site, in a very rural area but still not far away from civilisation, good solid hard standing pitches, good clean facilities and good communication with the owner Claire. I will be back, might even bring the wife next time!

Disliked: Nothing!

Local attractions

When in Staffordshire, pottery-related activities are a must. At World of Wedgwood (20 minutes’ drive) you can take a guided tour of the factory to see how their iconic pieces are crafted. If you find that inspiring, you can have a go at throwing a pot yourself or get creative with paint in the decorating studio. Go to Trentham Estate (25 minutes) for the award-winning gardens and stay for the shopping village made up of quaint timber huts. In between, you can take a stroll along the Capability Brown-designed lake, check out the wildlife (from deer to woodpeckers, plus the primates at Monkey Forest) and follow the kids on the Fairy Trail (or let them loose in the adventure playground). Grab your swimsuit and head to Waterworld (35 minutes), where wave pools, lazy rivers and all sorts of watery slides (from the toddler-friendly Python to the thrilling Thunderbolt drop water flume) await.
