Abdo Hill Farm

Paul-wow. Absolute character who completely and utterly does everything for the kids. Is aware what needs updating and improving. Very friendly man who truly has this place as his passion. He arranged an ice cream van at least once a day, has a working 911 cop car come and visit daily. Took kids for rides on his buggy.
Just a gem of a man who has had some very rude reviews put in about him. He just truly wants to help make your stay good.

Pitch sizes-great space. Enough for tent and decent seating space around tent.

Views-breath taking views across fields.

Location-nearby lots of fun places to visit. Not far from RAF cosford, hawk stone collie, a miniature railway.

Park-great for under 10’s.

Road noise-can’t be helped but if this would be an issue it’s not the place for you.

Toilet block-only 2 showers , 2 toilets and 1 sink and facilities are dated and aged. Paul is aware and is putting plans in to improve. Had already said this block is being redone before next season but new block won’t be ready.

Lack of open space for kids to play-when field is full can’t kick a ball or really run free. Came with friends with 13 year old boys who had limited things they could do as ball despite trying their best to keep near had little space to be kicked around when field full, hence lower score
For child friendliness.

No shop in safe walking distance.

The owner Paul was so very helpful and was always on hand if you needed him.

The toilets were just awful there are only two toilets and two showers for the whole site, one sink with only cold water when you use the shower and somebody comes in to use the sink the shower goes extremely hot, then the facilities for ladies sanitary disposal is an open bin next to the toilet not ideal in a unisex toilet and children going in and out, then if you do go to shower your child there is no room to dress or even dry them so you have to move out to do it again not ideal in a unisex facility.the information on the website also says modern toilet facility and free WiFi none is true.

I have just spent 3 nights at Abdo Hill Farm with my family. Paul, the owner is very friendly and was very helpful and informative on arrival. He made an effort with the children giving them a ride around the site on his buggy vehicle, bringing in his Sheriff car for them to enjoy and having a little kick about with the football and engaging them in conversation.
The site is well presented and well kept with lovely flowers and ornaments around. The toilet block is cleaned often throughout the day. An ice cream van visited the site twice which the children loved and the prices were very reasonable so we bought them both nights.

Unfortunately the negatives outweigh the positives and we were thankful we hadn't booked any longer than 3 nights.
The toilet and shower block is described as a modern facility on the website however it is far from it and I have never stayed on a campsite with such poor facilities. The shower and toilet block is a wooden shed that smells strongly of damp and consists of 2 toilets, 2 showers and 1 sink that serve the whole site male and female. Myself and my family found it very uncomfortable being a unisex facility even more so with it being so small, there is very little privacy. The showers are warm and powerful however there is a smelly and soaking wet carpet rug in the tiny changing area and it was somewhat of a task to try and get dried and dressed and avoid standing on the sodden mat. The showers go dangerously hot when the toilets are flushed and given there are only 2 toilets serving the whole site they were flushed every few minutes. This was dangerous enough for showering adults nevermind children!
The one sink in the toilet and shower block had no plug and only cold water so we were unable to even have a wash. There were always many people waiting to use the toilets, showers or sink to wash their hands or brush their teeth there just simply isn't enough of anything to serve the whole site!
The site is small, tents and caravans are crammed on giving very little space between each and therefore a lack of privacy.
Lastly, the site is right next to the A41 and the noise is unbelievably loud 24 hours a day we got very little sleep in 3 nights!
I defintely would not recommend a stay here.

Have stayed here before and glad to say nothing has changed! Large pitch and well maintained site. Spotless facilities even during a busy bank holiday weekend! Friendly site and owner always on hand to help with anything. Will definitely be booking again.

A great little place had a great 4 nights here Paul the owner always around and very helpful a credit to the camp site. Great for the kids they loved the playground and made some friends. Ideally placed to visit places highly recommend money forest about 20 minutes away.

Only downfall was a road was nearby which you could hear.

Friendly site. Park great for kids.

Toilet/shower facilities could be better.

From before we arrived the communication from Paul was excellent. When we arrived Paul greeted us and went through everything we needed to know. Paul was nothing but friendly and professional. He was willing to go above and beyond. We even had a visit from the local sheriff :)
The site was clean and well maintained to a high standard, as well as safe for our children.

The site was near a main road, however, this was soon forgotten and it had no negative impact on the holiday.

A gem of a find! A small but amazing kept campsite. The facilities were spotless, and showers actually work (rare for a campsite!). The owner Paul could not be more helpful or friendly, and made us feel totally welcome. Kids play area was lovely, and the whole place is so well laid out that they were able to go off and play safely. We will 100% be going back. As my 13 year old said ‘best campsite we’ve ever been to’!

Nothing

Views, location, on-site facilities and park. This was our first time camping and we could not have picked a nicer place. Paul was extremely helpful and made our stay even nicer. The kids had a fab time and have stated it was one of their best holidays. We loved every minute.

Everything was perfect

I have been here 3 times and loved every moment.
The showers are very clean
Toilets and very clean
Wash areas very clean and you are supplied with the necessities, Eg, Toilet Roll, Hand Wash, Sanitiser and hand towels.
The grass pitches are very very well maintained and there is not a weed or bump in sight.
There is a lovely park on site for the kids to play on or lovely spacious well maintained grass for the kids to play with their toys on.
Ideal for a family break in a tent , caravan or campervan
The owner is amazingly friendly and very very helpful
This will be a little campsite that we will always visit to have a lovely weekend away.
