Lovely!

We have just spent a week here. Had a lovely pitch at the top of the site with lovely views. The grass for the pitches and 'driveways' is kept nice and short. The owners were in the process of putting in more water and EHU points which would make it even better.

What a wonderful site!

We have just returned from 3 nights here and will definitely be going back in the near future. It has everything we wanted: beautifully mown camping pitches, loads of space, excellent walks from the site and a 20 minutes walk into Ludlow. Having a largish motor home and two lively dogs we need everything on our doorstep, so when we pitch-up and have put up our 'garden' for the dogs, we stay put and will be walking from the site. The walking was wonderful, Forest and trails, hills and valleys, streams and views. Dogs loved it as all off lead. The walk to Ludlow is along a footpath then the main road. The pavement isn't the widest but with COVID and social distancing it was still ok. Ludlow is beautiful and although some of the business were still closed, there were loads of places open to eat and drink. The site is very nicely looked after. Elizabeth, the owner is very friendly and meets you on arrival and takes you to your pitch. The pitches are very private and large. You have your own tap, though this this isn't necessarily right by your pitch and the recycling is very organised. We couldn't hear any traffic noise, the TV reception was good and so was our phone signal. It was very COVID safe, which was reassuring as this was our first outing this summer so a little bit tentative. We will be back!

Wonderful weekend at Hucks Barn

Visited here the third weekend of September. Great camp site and great to meet the owner, Liz Davies. She lives in the farm house at the top of the track leading to the site, entrance to campsite on left. Call in before you set up. Liz took us round on foot, and showed us to our spot. The campsite is in an old orchard, still some apple trees dotted around. There are a number of hard standing spots that you get to by driving over grass, might be a problem in the wet, but we were fine. All the spots are well spaced, with apple trees in between, in fact it is quite idillic. Probably the best camp site we have been to, we loved it. At the back of the site is the old Leominster-Ludlow coach road that went out of use in 1756 when the turn Pike was opened (now the B4361). There is a “kissing gate” at the back of the site, turn right to Ludlow, left to Mortimer’s Forest (the Mortimers were Marcher Lords back in medieval times so I guess the forest is named after them). We turned left. You can do a triangular Walk through the woods and back to the camp site, takes us about an hour. You can also do a round-about walk to Ludlow through the forest (Evens wood), its great meandering through the trees, eventually you get to a road that takes you into Ludlow, walk to the view point and then head down to the River Teme through the woods rather than following the road. Good view of the castle from the viewpoint. Head over the bridge and up to the castle. The walk took us about an hour-and-a-half. Ludlow centre is extraordinarily picturesque, great castle, lots of nice pubs. To sample a pint of Boiling Well, brewed by Ludlow Brewery, go to the Church Inn near St Laurence Church. To get back, go down broad street, through the only remaining medieval gate, the Broad Gate (the Wheatsheaf pub, butting up against the gate, looks nice), over the river and back to the camp site along the B4361 till you pick up the old coach road again on the right; 20 minutes. A good trip out is to Stokesay Castle 15 minutes drive way, Stokesay is more of a fortified manner house than a castle but well worth a visit. We had a great weekend.

Fabulous few days

Made us very welcome. Excellent site with everything you need and plenty of space between pitches. Lovely walk into Ludlow - use the path from the top of the orchard to miss some of the main road and steep entrance road. Cattle and wildlife a plenty. Very peaceful and relaxing. Plenty to do in Ludlow - Castle, great market and independent shops and eateries. You can walk along the bank of the River Teme from Ludford Bridge to Dinham Mill (on the route to/from the site). On the return list.

Lovely little CL

We chose this site for its close proximity to Ludlow (just over one mile to stroll to the market square). The very welcoming and friendly lady owner showed us where to park up in the orchard and left us to pick our hardstanding pitch. There is plenty of space in between the pitches. We made use of the EHU and the fresh water. There are recycling bins for various waste, an Elsan point, and 'grey water' can be disposed of into the hedge line. It was lovely to sit in the orchard (we had hot sun) and watch the birds and insect life. The picturesque large patches of 'wild meadow' in between the fruit trees gave much privacy from one side of the site to the other, and to watch the gentle movement of the long grass was relaxing. The lovely site has lost one 'star' because of the very minor train noise at night-time, the very minor noise from the road nearby, and the noise of the neighbours mowing their lawn (it has got to be done!). None of it was too disturbing, and I guess had the breeze been in the other direction the noises would not have reached us. There are two cattle grids to negotiate on the approach drive, and some wonderfully curious cattle watched our every move whenever we left or arrived at the site. NB anyone with limited mobility: For us, the grids were an obstacle in that one of us uses a mobility scooter ... fortunately one of us is strong enough to half lift, and half attempt to drive the small scooter over the gaps. Be warned, if using a mobility scooter to visit Ludlow from the site, there is no dropped kerb on the approach to the bridge over the river Teme - meaning it had to be again, lifted - this time, into the road ... and you have to take your life in your hands as you battle with the traffic. Also, the narrow footpath into Ludlow was very overgrown with greenery from the hedges, and the road traffic very fast! This was a very pleasant site, lovely location, with friendly, non-intrusive owners, welcoming cows, and we will return.
