Just the perfect CL

Hucks Barn Farm
This large tranquil site is just the most perfect way to enjoy the wonderful town of Ludlow. The helpful owner will take you to the best pitch for your unit and make sure all is well. Then you may relax amongst the orchard, enjoying the peace and quiet. Bliss.

One of the best sites we have stayed on!!!!

Hucks Barn Farm
Hucks Barn is a lovely site, this the second time we have stayed there, it is set in an orchard, pitches are spaced out so you can hardly se your neighbour, paths are kept mowed but areas for wild flowers and insect are let to grow. Ideal for dogs, footpaths direct from the top of the site. Easy walk into Ludlow, we hope to be back before too long, ignore the comments re the site owners we were made welcome, just wait to shown your pitch.

Enjoyed the overall experience.

Hucks Barn Farm
Interesting reviews by people; and after talking to owner when booking on phone I was apprehensive of our meeting when we arrived. She is just direct and has her own way in communication. (The old addage don't judge a book by it cover).I found this not a problem and was shown to our allocated spot. Loads of room separated each L' and water point. Take levelling blocks the site is a on a slope. In amongst trees and hedge rows the site is very quiet. It has easy access to lots of foot paths. The old drove which takes you to the road half way to Ludlow. Side walk along the road for the rest of a 25 minute walk in total. Ideally suited for Ludlow. There was quite a few horse flies so take a repellent but proved not a problem overall. We enjoyed our stay overall on this spacious ideally sited site. With a friendly wave as we left it was easy access to the main carriageways and off.

Fantastic site, less than optimal interpersonal skills

Hucks Barn Farm
We stayed at this site in 2022. I was livid at my experience on the first day. Being called a idiot for not stopping at the exact spot where the lady said when we first arrived to being spoken to in a condescending manner by a gentleman who presumably was sent by the matriarch to "help" us park up but kept standing in the way when I was manoeuvring making it impossible. I was all set to leave the site without even asking for a refund but my wife wouldn't! On the upside, we didn't see our bellicose hosts again for the next four days until we left. That said it is a really excellent site. Others may well have different experiences and if you want to go to Ludlow, definitely consider it. However, I am unlikely to be going again and definitely not if its an extra fiver a day for electric. I barely use any.

Small quiet Site

Hucks Barn Farm
I can't deny it, having read the reviews and having spoken to the owner before making the booking, I was a little apprehensive to meet her! However, she proved to be quite jolly, although a little direct and quite firm in her instructions! The site is lovely and quiet with good views and easy access into Ludlow town, following the track at the back of the campsite. It was nice to have a water hose next to the electricity point. Now the downside..... we were rather taken aback when we arrived to be asked for a further £5.00 per night due to "the cost of the electric!" Whilst I appreciate that this should be taken into consideration, I do not feel that this site warrants this amount of payment. We were happy to pay £24 per night, and understood at the time of booking that we would have to use our own facilities. However, to pay £29 per night for what we had, I feel was a little overpriced. There are no shower or toilet facilities, washing up or laundry area, or an information hut. Having paid the full amount at the time of booking, we felt we had no alternative without spoiling our break, to pay the extra, £5 per night, although I feel we should have been notified of this before travelling to the site.
