Your little bears might not want to leave. Big Bear Lodge is a Shrewsbury site with what the owners reckon just might be among the best views in Shropshire – and it's in a spectacularly secluded countryside location where your young can run around and go spotting badgers, foxes, bats, squirrels and even the resident cuckoo that arrives each May. A flock of feathered visitors also flit around this calmly quiet site, including red kites, woodpeckers, swifts, buzzards and even some tame robins – sit peacefully and you may just spy photo opps. You'll hear the local owls hooting at night, and if it's a cloud-free evening you can settle down under the skies for a spot of peaceful stargazing: no light pollution or traffic noise here. The Big Bear facilities include fresh water adjacent to pitches, and an amenities block a short walk away with three showers (including one for disabled guests), heated towel rails, rainfall shower heads and washing-up facilities with hot and cold water. Dogs are welcome on site but must be kept on leads. Big Bear Lodge is also near where the Vyrnwy and Severn rivers meet, so has a wealth of walks very close by – and Shropshire has over 3500 miles' worth of hikes if you want to take things a bit further. Get set to roar with pleasure…

Vad våra kunder säger om oss

Big Bear Lodge är en lugn, välskött camping med oklanderligt rena faciliteter. Gäster berömmer de hjälpsamma värdarna, god mat (pizza/frukost), 24h-shoppen, rymliga platser, lekplats och lugnet. Viss kritik mot tältkomfort/utrustning, men gästerna vill gärna återvända.

Tyckte om Lovely holiday. Had everything we needed. The honesty shop was well stocked with such a good variety. Shower and toilets were very clean and beautifully decorated. Welcome Book packed with places to visit near by. And food delivery to our door was such a brilliant touch!

Tyckte om We had a brilliant weekend at the campsite here. Visiting as a family with primary school aged kids we'd initially booked two nights, but added on a third because we were having such a nice time.

The site itself is small - maybe 15 or so pitches - had a nice peaceful relaxed vibe, and is really well looked after after. There were lots of families with similar aged kids and the kids all got together and played for hours in what is a very comfortable, safe environment, with lots of grassy space and a playground, so we could all get on with some relaxing.

Facilities are fairly basic - toilets and a couple of showers, and there's an honesty shop, which is handy. But there is the option of having pizzas or breakfast cooked for you and brought to your tent! A great perk for that late night arrival or last morning where you've already packed away the cooking stuff - food was really nice too.

Cassie, who runs the place with her family, was lovely to communicate with and couldn't have been more helpful. They work very hard to make sure it's a nice place to stay. There was one night where one of the pitches was making too much noise and when I woke up there was already a message of apology from Cassie, letting us know they'd spoken to the people about quiet hours. Having had problems like this at larger places that go completely unchecked this was really nice attention to detail.

Nearby there's obviously tons of outdoors stuff to do, farm shops, we had a day at British Iron works, which was ace. Then at night, when the clouds part, that spectacular Shropshire night sky.

In all, a great little place and we'd certainly recommend it or return ourselves.

Thanks Cassie and team!

Tyckte inte om Hardly worth mentioning, but there's only one shower per sex.

Tyckte om We stayed in the family bell tent which was great and had everything we needed for a night away.
Loved that we could have a bbq and fire pit and the campsite was lovely and peaceful.
Shower, toilet and washing up facilities were great!
Breakfast was a treat and they accommodated for our vegan diets, thank you!

Tyckte om Wonderful site! We used the glamping area with pods and a bell tent. We were really lucky to have the area to ourselves which was fantastic and unusual for the site (was a predicted windy weather week I suspect that was why!) absolutely great pods with all you need and outdoor extras such as benches bbqs and fire pits. On other sites we would usually pay but they are free at Big bear which was a bonus. We ordered pizzas for the first night which was delivered promptly by a summer holiday helper (Harriet😃) they were delicious and cooked on a stone pizza maker and you could tell! They were ordered again for our last night as we couldn’t resist. Hosts James and Cassie are lovely and we chatted with both about booking again next year. We have provisionally booked for the same week in 2026. Can’t wait! ⛺️🎪

Tyckte inte om Travelling with a wheelchair user. Disabled facilities and accessibility great just needs some thought to pathways and use of gravel. But we overcome this and my husband was still able to shower and access the block. Cassie also came up with a solution for this which was very thoughtful.

Eagles Nest campinghytt (2 personer, badtunna)

Tyckte om Had the best time in one of the bell tents last week. It slept 4 of us with plenty of room. We ordered pizzas twice from Cassie and they were phenomenal and beautifully delivered by Harriet! (Her daughter) The view is gorgeous and so peaceful. The honesty shop is such a lovely touch too. And handy! Our other family stayed in two of the pods. They were cute, quirky and clean. The site is kept tidy and clean. We will definitely be rebooking.

Tyckte inte om The bell tent got quite warm so next time we will take a fan but the heat couldn’t be helped. And the cows mooing first thing in the morning were quite loud but we got used to it! They were just chatting to each other! 😂 we were travelling with my brother who is in a wheelchair so the gravel was a bit of an issue but we over come it by driving him up to the ramp that led to the toilet/shower area and that was he was able to access them from there.

Tyckte om Just got home from a lovely night away with my daughter and what a little gem this place is..!!! We had the best time. Beautiful location, lovely play park which was all enclosed and safe so great when travelling solo with a child.. Clean facilities with lovely family room which was perfect for us to use together.. Our pod was spacious and clean with a lovely hot tub i had trouble getting the little one out of. We had food delivered from the pizza menu in the evening and breakfast the following morning.. Piping hot and delicious.. delivered with a smile by a lovely polite young girl who is a credit to big bear lodge. Thank you so much for our stay we will definitely be back.

Tyckte om The hosts could not be anymore helpful, even prior to arrival.
Well spaced out pitches with parking alongside.
Honesty shop is a life saver- ice, cold drinks, toys and essential camping tools.
Ducks, chickens, cat and dog to make friends with- we ordered breakfast and had a fresh egg from on-site, delicious!
Facilities are clean and all you could need.
We shall definitely return.

Lokala sevärdheter

This part of England running into Powys and Wales has been popular for yonks with outdoor and active sorts, who come to canoe or fish its waters, canter around the countryside by horseback or foot, climb or mountain bike its peaks, or tackle less trodden options like clay shooting or paragliding. Golf is available locally too. If you're more into sightseeing than activity, Powis Castle, Erddig Hall, Chirk Castle and the Hawkstone Follies are all good local options, or you could have a day out in Shrewsbury to stroll through its Shuts (ancient alleyways) and over its nine bridges. And as for those miles and miles of Shropshire – and Powys – walks? Try a wander around Pistyll Rhaeadr waterfall just over the Welsh border, among the wildlife and birds of Lake Vyrnwy, up and down the three peaks of the Breidden Hills, and through Nesscliffe Hill Country Park between Oswestry and Shrewsbury – with a pitstop at fifteenth-century pub the Old Three Pigeons Inn.
