Bishops Castle is great for pubs and meals/quaint shops plus great  walking.

   Yes but its close to Clun


Whats wrong with Clun ?


   You have to watch out for the one eyed teddy bears.


Must admit, havent been to Clun for years and years. Ony go to Knighton or Leintwardine. Please tell me about the one eyed teddy bears.

 Caz, perhaps I should set myself a mission: 2009 is the year I will go camping in Shropshire!

Any suggestions for me? So, dog allowed, better quality shower block, tent, no need for ehu. Lovely views! Small/medium sized well run site. No club. As it will probably be for a weekend the first time at least then the easier it is to get to from the south west would help.

I have clicked about on the site finder here, and Foxholes/Middle Woodbatch and Marton (!)  have been mentioned to me before but would really appreciate your expert insight

Oh, you must try Shropshire, Merry, surprised you haven't been before.

Don't know the others you mention, but if by Marton you mean Rhyd y Groes at Marton (in Powys   but very close to the border) then I can thoroughly recommend it. Heated floor in the shower, campers kitchen with fridge and kettle, stunning views, dogs welcome, good walking country - but they have gone adult only now so don't know when I'll go back. It is a bit pricey though.

The Sytche at Much Wenlock - again beautiful views and good walking country, the facilities have been upgraded and the wardens changed since I was there last and I have had good reports.

For scenery, keep to the west and the south Shropshire hills.

If you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel, just keep going till you go round the bend.

Thanks caz. I was very disappointed last year when the Marton meet was rained off, for tenters at least so have now decided to make a proper effort this year. Although I wouldn't have any children with me I am slightly disappointed that Marton has gone adults only - it is always so lovely to see children out and about and having a good time on  a campsite - but it still sounds like it could still be my top choice. A personal recommendation goes a long way

There were some brave souls on the grass, I made them a cuppa while they were pitching - and sank nearly to my ankles carrying it to them. I certainly wouldn't have wanted to be pitching a tent there that weekend, so you were wise to call it off.

Hope the weather this year is a bit drier, I bought a new tent last summer and only got to use it once.
