Lovely, peaceful, rural site on the border of Wales

We stayed for 3 nights in June 2021 at this great CL in Shropshire. It’s a really private setting, a large site with plenty of choice of large pitches and the panoramic views from the top of the site are amazing. We were met by Ian, who showed us round and offered us pitch options. Each pitch currently has its own water tap, and ours was nice and close by. We were really impressed with the communication before and after our stay with lots of suggestions of places to go. A nice touch was the selection of dog friendly attractions – a must for us. Ellesmere can be easily reached by road or the scenic route via the fields. Although longer, the scenic route is much nicer. Just to be aware though for dog owners, most of the stiles are well sheep fenced or gaps too small for most dogs to go through. We ended up carrying our Beagle over – although he quite got used to it in the end! Ellesmere is a small town with a couple of delis, butcher and supermarkets. We visited a couple of pubs, walked along the canal and around the Mere, stopping for ice creams. The Boathouse by the Mere looks really nice too, although we didn’t visit this time. This site is well run by Ian and Janet and their hard work really shows. It’s definitely on our list to return to.
