 For a fishing weekend with the grandkids and family great.
Staff on the site are fantastic.
The only let down was the weather obviously one thing they don't have control over.
Food is terrific well worth the money.

Very secluded site
By the river Severn
Great pub lovely food
Shower block could do with a bit of an update
But apart from that very good,
Access with a large caravan or motor home is not for the faint hearted
Ideal for fishermen

Toilets and showers were not the best,
However food was good and reasonably priced,
Staff was friendly,
Site could with being updated,
A little overpriced for overnights stays compared to a lot of campsites with nicer facilities.

Great level grass site on the banks of the river Severn. Perfect location for visiting the Severn Valley Railway (heritage steam trains) as the line is right next to the site & a station a stone's throw away.
Site was £15 per night + £1 per each adult (not sure about charge for kids - we don't have any!) There's a £20 returnable deposit for the barrier fob.
The on-site pub serves great food at a reasonable price. New management this year.
Can't comment on child friendliness, but there were a few kids there & they seemed happy enough!

This site is in a stunning location with the river on one side of the site and up the hill, the steam railway on the other.
The views are uninterrupted from the field to the river, however when you look up to the railway line to catch the train, there are a lot of statics and seasonal pitches lined up, but this did not bother me.
On arrival we had to check in at the pub and once I had found the front door, it was off to find the bar. It could be off putting if you are not used to the banter of the regulars who were congregated by the bar, but they were friendly and left me to myself.
Once checked in, key fob for the gate obtained and advised where the facilities block was, the girl advised we could pitch anyway along the riverside, as we did not have electric, and left us to it.
The site is lovely and flat and had no problem at all, no need for any levelling ramps. Dotted along the riverbank, alongside the pitches, there are paths down to the river where the fishing fanatics (and there were lots of them here) could go and spend the day.
The shower and toilet block is up by the pub and this was clean and did the job, no they are not plush, but if you need the loo or a shower, then they will do the job perfectly. I found them clean and stocked with loo paper, however there was no hot water on the second day, as the immersion had tripped. The day before this had happened too and the pub staff were instant to reset the switch. Although they will happily reset the switch and the water is hot again in minutes, this really should be updated to a new system that does not trip daily.
Also a quick lick of paint in the block would be a good idea, along with a shower curtain, screwing the hooks on the door in the showers and providing hand soap. But they work, functional and fine.
The pub is great, the regulars all know each other and enjoy good banter and we found them all to be happy, friendly and pleasant enough. They stock the usual range of beers, wines and spirits, along with crisps and some sweeties. The price for a Strongbow and a Stella 4 was £5. 20, bargain.
We ate in the pub on two nights and the food was brilliant. I was a little worried when we first went in for food as the smell of chip fat was present, but they were the best chunky chips I have had, and I do not like chunky chips normally. Very reasonably priced with most main meals: chilli con carne, cottage pie, lamb shank, etc. All being around £6. 25. Dog friendly too.
You can walk for miles and miles from the site, into Bridgnorth, or miles the other way and all walks are dog friendly. The people on the pitch next to us had a kayak, and I saw some others with a small dingy, so launching there is fine too.
Bridgnorth is a few miles away by car, but we did not venture there, but on driving through, it looked fairly large with a good range of shops.
There is a children's play area on site too, which looked dated, but perfectly safe and usable and lots of kids were enjoying themselves.
Overall I was pleased with the stay, this was a Wednesday and Thursday night we stayed, and the site was very peaceful and pretty empty.

From start to finish we had a wonderful time here.
All the staff (bar and warden) were friendly and helpful. As were the other campers.
This is a lovely little campsite.
At the entrance there is The Unicorn Inn. Toilets and showers and a playground.
There are pitches right next to the river Severn which can be fished.
There are walks through fields next to the river and through the lanes.
There is a steam train station (Hampton Loade) just 5 mins stroll away. You can see the train going past the campsite.
The Inn was really warm and welcoming. Food was delicious and plentiful with very reasonable prices. There is a lovely wood burner in the bar to warm you up after a days fishing.
We will be returning next year.

Have known about this site for some time and so glad we finally got to come and stay for start of the river fishing season.
Did a 2 night stay in our tourer, with friends in a tent. Pitches were a good size and level. There was some confusion with someone being on the pitch we had been allocated but the boss came down and sorted things out quickly, despite the other party getting quite shirty with him. We were still given a double bay pitch which was great.
Loos and showers are basic but clean and the showers were hot and powerful.
Didn't get chance to try the pub grub as we'd taken so much of our own, but next time definitely.
The men loved the fishing and the other fishermen were very friendly, as were the staff.
No frills site, and if it only had a shop it would be perfect.
Cannot wait to come back.
