Booked 2 nights here. The farm is well away from the main roads, along some narrow country lanes, and takes a while to reach but its isolation is one of its advantages. The same lane that accesses this CS also passes a CL, so don't mix up the two.
Parked up, paid at the house and got shown around the facilities. All pitches are gravel (quite big stones on mine) and I think EHU was an option on all of them. My pitch was one of the ones next to the lane that runs down to the farm, and the hedge helped shelter my utility tent during a couple of breezy days.
The portacabin holds a single toilet/shower room, which was clean and the shower was great. Next to this block were all of the water/CDP points.
The owners were pleasant and helpful. Mobile phone (O2) and 3G (3) reception was good.
In chatting to some of the caravan owners already there, they really liked the site and were regular visitors, so the place obviously has a fanbase
You could spend the day lazing around watching the goings on down on the farm, or listening to the sparrows squabbling in the hedge, but I decided to spend my one full day visiting Acton Burnell castle (more of a manor house than a castle, the ruins of which are hidden away in a nearby village) and the National Trust's Attingham Park (about 20 minutes away via the backroads). Much Wenlock/Wenlock Edge and Long Mynd/Carding Mill are not far away.
A nice site that I might use the next time I need to get away from it all.

This is a delightful Certificated Site (five pitches) that has many things that bigger sites don't have (recycling, hardstands, a seat and heated towel rail in the roomy portacabin bathroom - oddly, no mirror). But at only 12GBP for EHU with glorious views and absolute silence it's a bargain. We used the site as a stop-over: it seemed a way from the A road on narrow bendy C roads with high hedges, so it may be less ideal to use as a base if you have a motorhome. As the previous reviewer says, the CCC handbook route is the route to take for a caravan, as the turn in is too sharp from the other direction; however, it's also three sides of a square. Would be an ideal base for cycling. Not too good for dog owners - we went up the road to a field without sheep in it to give our spaniel her off-lead exercise - but that's a minor quibble. We'd happily stop over here again.

This is a lovely site that looks over the Shropshire countryside with good access and flat roads. Waste, water, recycling facilities and electric all great. The shower and toilet are in a portacabin, set out as a spacious bathroom and very clean. Shower, toilet and washbasin. The shower cabin is spacious with good water pressure. We stayed for six days and during that time people came and went, meaning that there were only about three units at a time on the site, so there was no problem about using the shower etc.
The owners are really nice and helpful and keep the site well maintained. There is good space between pitches and this site provides you with a peaceful holiday. Oh! and they sell lovely eggs.
We stayed here to do some walking and had a very nice time indeed. Church Stretton is only a short drive away for all your needs and you are central for places of interest. This place was ideal for us and I could not fault it. A lady from another caravan was moaning that there was no washing-up sink.Making me yawn.
TV reception was excellent.
The neighbours are sheep in the adjacent fields.
When you book ask which way to approach the site because one of the ways in is not as easy.
