First time and will not be our last
Valais Caravan Park
I can only echo what others have said. A quick text to the owners when 30 mins away to be met by Bruce at the pre opened gates with welcome pack in hand. Lots of good advice, especially regarding walking into Bishops Castle via a green lane and footpath which brings you out pretty much in the town centre and completely avoids the main road. After the 'meet and greet' we were left alone to enjoy the peaceful surroundings. One little tip, the left off the main road in Colebatch is not best signed and could be easy to miss as the post code is a general one for the area, I meant to get a what 3 words location for the gate to the site, maybe Bruce and can sort one out sometime. Many thanks again, will defo be back!

Peaceful
Valais Caravan Park
Spent a couple of nights there this may.
Bruce and Anne run a lovely well kept site surrounded by sheep, wonderful country side and interesting places.
Eggs for sale at the gate, were excellent, pitches were flat'ish, easy to level a motor home.
We will be back.

A lovely site
Valais Caravan Park
We spent 10 nights here in September (during the heatwave!) and thoroughly enjoyed the site, and the area too. It is everything you would expect from a rural CL. It is an ideal base to explore the Shropshire Hills, and there are easy walks from the site into Bishops Castle, as well as quiet lanes for cycling. Bruce and Anne were really welcoming and helpful, and happy to chat if you wanted to whilst they got on with looking after their horses, sheep, ducks, etc etc!
The large flat grass pitches are separated by longer grass which was cut for hay for the horses whilst we were there, but that was good to see as nothing is being wasted, and Bruce spent ages raking the turned grass back off the pitches to keep everything tidy. The facilties are perfect and I won't re-iterate all that has been said before, suffice to say when we next visit the area we will definitely stay here again. Thank you Bruce and Anne, you have a lovely place.
Great CL site
Valais Caravan Park
Stayed for two nights, really liked the long meadow grass between pitches ( the pitch itself nicely mown). A choice of fresh eggs every morning, we went for the lovely duck eggs. Great walks very close by for the dog. A really nice welcome together with an information pack on the local area. Exactly what a great CL should be. Highly recommended.
