A little gem of a site, as others have stated.
Tucked away down a lane over a ford, but handy for two pubs and with lovely scenery all around.
Church Stretton is close with interesting shops to browse around.
Site has level pitches, well-mown grass, facilities are clean and a stile leads to pleasant walks up the valley - useful, as well-behaved dogs on leads are welcome.
When I visited it was mostly camper vans, with a couple of small touring caravans and a few tents.
A hint - if you don't want too much coming and going by your pitch, ask not to be allocated pitches 15 or 16 when you book, as they are either side of the stile.
Good for walkers, bird-watchers and anyone fancying a bit of peace and quiet.
A soundscape of running water in the stream, rustling trees, bleating sheep and assorted birdsong is very relaxing.
For gardeners, Pam and Oscar's garden is a good example of what can be achieved on a steep slope!
I'd certainly go back- can't say fairer than that.

What a beautiful little site. The entrance down a narrow lane and through a ford was so pretty. Oscar greeted us and showed us to our pitches, explained where to find all the facilities.
Very quiet and peaceful.
The showers were a little dated but worked perfectly.
A 5 minute walk into the village where there are 2 pubs both serving great food and also the local bus stop to Ludlow & Shrewsbury.

This is one site I really didn’t want to leave. We had amazing weather, the views and location are out of this world. Everything on the site is so well kept, neat and tidy. We paid £27 per night for a motorhome and EHU which isn’t unreasonable at all for what it had to offer,
Pam was very welcoming and went out of her way to ensure we had a great time, she was so friendly and helpful. Always stopped for a chat if we were sat out and offering local advice if we needed it.
The facilities are rustic and absolutely spotless.
I went mid June and mid week. It was full of people who clearly just wanted what I did, beautiful peaceful surroundings. One evening, the site was almost full and all you could hear was wildlife and the occasional sheep. I’m sure anyone there was just sitting outside chatting quietly between themselves. But I couldn’t hear them at all.
I only went for a short, flat walk but it was so pretty, I gather there are several from the site and fairly challenging but they must have the most amazing views.
I did road cycle and the surrounding area is understandably hilly but lovely quiet lanes with breathtaking views. I hear there are many great challenging off road routes too,
Maybe during school holidays the site attracts families more but there are no ball games allowed and no playground so probably more suited to families with older children.
There are 2 pubs very close by, I only ate in one which was fabulous but I gather they are both extremely good, so best to book.
It was the most perfect holiday and I am definitely going back again, this year I hope🤞🤞.

A fabulous little site nestling beneath the Shropshire Hills.
The owners are a lovely friendly couple.
Facilities are fine and the showers are hot ( and free ).

I am a walker so for me this site meant "location, location, location" It is located right in the middle of the Shropshire Hills which is a beautiful part of the Country.
Indeed 2 footpaths go through the site which lead up to, or down from the high ground of the Long Mynd, both routes are steep and challenging but well worth it.
Its not just the immediate area that is gorgeous however, wherever you go in this area you will find fantastic countryside, beautiful villages and cracking pubs, on the subject of which there are 2 in the village a short walk away.
Church Stretton is about 1. 5 miles away and has a nice mix of shops, pubs, a chippy, petrol station and railway station from where you can travel to Shrewsbury, Ludlow or beyond for the day.
About the site itself: it nestles in a short little valley with high ground on 3 sides (so don't expect a TV signal) but this makes the site very quiet and peaceful, there is a good phone / data signal.
It is a grass field gently sloping a the bottom of which runs a small brook. There are sufficient toilets and showers which are cleaned every day and are pleasant to use. There are all the usual disposal facilities.
Costs may seem high especially the charge of £4 per night for awnings and £4 for a 10amp hook up on top of the pitch fee but for me it was the location that made it worth it.
I only spoke briefly to the owner, Oscar, and he seemed friendly and asked me for feedback which is unusual and shows he cares what his visitors think.
That's it really a small family owned site in an absolutely lovely location which siuted me down to the ground, of course it may not suit all.

The campsite was lovely and in a beautiful location. The owners were so helpful, even advising on the OS map on local paths.
The placing of large mats placed around the van to keep things nice and dry inside (and apparently to assist departing vehicles in times of wet ground) were a first, and much appreciated.
Two pubs serving meals in easy walking distance.
Two weeks ago were outside dining possible.

Only one night, didn't use the showers, but a well kept, beautiful little site.
Sketchy phone / internet, but it is in a valley.
Easy access to great hill walks and close to 2 nice pubs
