Why stay here ...

Alison and Brian offer you a warm welcome to Firs Cottage CL, exclusively for adults.

Nestled on the gentle southerly slope of Wenlock Edge, our site has become an extension of our garden, there's a central lawned area with seating and generous pitches with good spacing. All pitches are fully serviced and on hardstanding with 16 amp E.H.U. (metered, charged at cost), a waste and recycling bin, tap, and long grey waste hoses to borrow. Information area and dog wash facility. We don't have toilets or showers. We strive to keep our CL a peaceful retreat by not allowing extra visitors on site.

Great for nature lovers and walkers with walks straight from site into stunning countryside or a short drive to Wenlock Edge car park. Where there are plenty of paths and in May wild garlic flowers carpet the slopes, stunning views of the Wrekin and the Shropshire Hills.
We are 2 miles south of Much Wenlock. Birthplace of the modern Olympics. with its abbey ruins, pubs, cafes, independent shops and a popular butchers and pie shop. We don't have a bus service but it's only 5 mins in the car or 45 mins walking through beautiful countryside.

  • Ironbridge World Heritage Site with the iconic bridge and museums - 9 miles.
  • Bridgnorth and the Severn Valley Railway - 9 miles.
  • Shrewsbury has plenty of shops, pubs, restaurants, museum, theatre and boat trips -12 miles.
  • Historic Ludlow and its imposing castle ruins - 18 miles.

We look forward to meeting you.

Tranquil and relaxing

Firs Cottage
We normally go to large adult only sites with full facilities and after many years of caravaning this is the first adult only CL we have stayed at. This has been a revelation. Quite as lovely as any site we have been to in the past but very quiet and relaxing. So many birds to hear including Goldcrests, Finches and a Nuthatch. Brian is the perfect friendly host, helpfully sympathetic when unfortunately we had to visit A&E and cut the holiday short. We certainly hope to return when health allows.

What a start to Caravanning.

Firs Cottage
This was our 2nd weekend away in our caravan. our first few days away with our 2 greyhounds. The site is exactly as depicted in the images. Brian knew it was my first real trip away with our set up. The welcome could not have been warmer, Brian helped my get the van situated & levelled using his own pitch specific levelling blocks. Even supplied me with a 25m cable as we had only taken a 15m supplied with the van. As this is our first CL I can’t compare to anything else yet, however to say we were blown away by the welcome, the layout & beauty of this delightful site would be an understatement. The other visitors also made us really welcome offering advice & friendly evening chats. We rocked up to site with a large Coveva windbreak set up. Which i was dubious about, again not a problem, our pitch had plenty of hardstanding to accommodate the caravan, landrover and 16 meters of dog retention . The wife commented on how well presented the waste facilities were & noticed boards full of local info. We will be returning for sure.

Beautiful CL

Firs Cottage
Just back from a lovely weekend at Firs Cottage. Definitely the best CL we have ever stayed on. So peaceful and quiet yet within easy reach of many places of interest. Much Wenlock is a very pretty little town and well worth a visit. The CL has beautiful, well cared for gardens with seats, tables and sun umbrellas. Just perfect and will definitely be back

Fantastic site.

Firs Cottage
Probably the best maintained CL site we have stopped on. The owners obviously take great pride in ensuring it’s as perfect as possible. It’s far enough off the main road to minimise any traffic noise. We only were able to stop two nights, but will be going back. At just £21 per night plus electric, which was just £5 for our two nights, it’s great value. We can only highly recommend this site.
