I endorse all the positive things said about this site. It is a gem, but I particularly wanted to commend the honesty of the owner.
We became ill with Norovirus the day before we were supposed to go but didn't want to put off our holiday a day longer than we needed to, so we asked Brian to hold the booking for us and said we would pay for our unused nights when we arrived. In the event it took longer to recover than we realised and it was six nights later that we actually arrived. Brian only charged us for one of those unused nights as he had turned someone away that night. The rest he said the pitch was not needed.
We felt this was extremely generous as he could have just taken the money. A very fair owner of a delightful site.
Perfect CL
Very friendly greeting , my first impression was how tidy and well kept the site is ,grass is short and is obviously collected as no grass anywhere to be trod in the van. Nicely situated for visiting local attractions ,in summary a first class cl I would have no hesitation in recommending,

First visit, not the last for sure!
We stayed for three nights, breaking our journey from Cornwall to the Pennines.
Wonderful welcome, assistance with setting up and loads of local information.
Lovely little town of Much Wenlock down the road and so handy for numerous National Trust properties, not to mention Ironbridge and its museums.
Handy pub, Wenlock Edge Inn just up the road.
Well done Brian & Alison.
Perfect site and a lovely location
A perfect site, with everything you need, even a dog wash. Great location and perfect for dog walks from the site too. Will definitely be back.
Beautiful site….. perfect for us ….
Superb little
Chocolate box site
Lovely welcome
Shame about the weather but loved it regardless
Fabulous site and we will be back!
This CL has got to be one of the best CL’s in the country. Alison & Brian are the perfect hosts and nothing is too much trouble. We’ve just returned from an wonderful 8 night stay and we even got the weather. The site is immaculate and each pitch has its own bins for waste and recycling and there is even a long water pipe supplied for waste water. Fresh veg is available from an honesty tray and a small selection of books. The grounds are very well tended and even when Alison & Brian mowed the lawns it was a quiet affair - no large, noisy sit on mowers like on many sites. There is even a lovely table, chairs and parasol on the central lawn for guests to use. The site is on a lovely quiet lane with beautiful countryside views which was perfect for walking our dog.
In the local village (Much Wenlock) there are a lovely array of independent shops and cafes. The Pig & Pie Bakery is a must - the freshly baked cakes, pies, breads and homemade meals were a godsend for us. Unfortunately our little dog became ill with pancreatitis during our stay and had to spend some time in the veterinary hospital in Bridgnorth so we were unable to travel far so having this on the doorstep was fabulous. Alison was extremely understanding and went out of her way to help us during this stressful time.
The Priory is well worth a visit - free parking in the village if you are English Heritage Members. There is also a wonderful wool shop which being a crafter - I loved. The villagers are very friendly and are eager to chat about the history of the village and suggest places to visit locally. Look out for the village cat!
We are already planning our next visit and hope to stay longer next time. Thank you Alison & Brian - your site is an absolute credit to you and your hard work.
Fantastic site with really friendly owners
One of the best cl’s we have been to, so pretty and tranquil, the site is immaculate, spacious with good sized lawn area for each pitch.
Alison puts out a daily selection of home grown produce, which we sampled several times for a minimal fee, was very nice.
We were lucky to drop on to a really good week of weather, got a bit hot towards the end of our stay.
Alison let us borrow a sun shade on our last day because it was too hot for our 2 Golden Retrievers, that sums Alison & Brian up, they are very attentive to their guests needs.
What a gem of a site.
Beautiful site
Found this site through a Facebook post, absolutely beautiful,well laid out large hard standings with water EHU, drainage, lovely friendly welcome.
Close to Much Wenlock and the Iron Bridge museums.
Superb adult only Site
Just returned from 6 nights on this excellent site, the owners could not be more friendly and helpful and have thought of everything to make things easy.They are rightly proud of their site and so they should be. We were there for a restful break and that’s exactly what we got, unfortunately health meant we could not do the walks around here but would think there would be plenty of opportunity for that. Much Wenlock is not to far away with a selection of shops and a Spar for basic shopping, but do need a vehicle to get to Shrewsbury or Ludlow but all within reach. Anyway just to say if you want that area try them , you will not be disappointed. Thank you for an excellent break.
