his is not a highly manicured CL with sharp cut hedges, grass and pitches, but it is delightful and true to the original ethos of CLs. Booking was via email/phone within 24 hours with Laura who is a really nice friendly lady. On arrival her Mum was about to point us in right direction, and was charming too. It is a lovely little field with a patch of hardstanding area at entrance with room for two units. We imagine in Summer when you can use the grass pitches, it would be even more glorious. The far reaching views are magnificent. The 'crazy' sheep in the meadows next door were highly entertaining. It was so quiet despite partly being next to a village residential street and just off the B road. The CDP did take bit of finding (on end of modern house under window on right as go out of CL gate) but it was no issue.
It is literally a mile from campsite gate to stepping on the Ironbridge so convenient and easy. Although as another review said it is steep walk back but it is nature of the location. Broseley the town which is probably less than a mile along the B road from CL is brilliant - it is utterly charming with so much to see and do plus offering all the basics - small supermarket, post office, butchers, fruit/veg shop, pub, take away, even laundrette, bus to Bridgnorth and Much Wenlock, and lovely sculpture trail around town. Highly recommend the cafe/bakery 'Wyld Flour' - awesome full English cooked breakfast plus immense selection of cakes as well as a Broseley bread stick - won't spoil it - go and buy one! Also a walk around 'The Jitties' is fascinating including Ding Dong Steps especially if you nosey and interested in lovely houses/homes.
A really wonderful CL,
