 We had a lovely time here, we found the people we spoke to in the park very pleasant (owners) and helpful.
The field is well kept and nice and flat. All the EHU are around the outside of the filed so there is plenty of room for children to play and there is a small park on the field.
All the pitches are well mown and flat so easy to get sorted. There are showers and washing up sinks by the main building.
All in all we had a lovely break here and will definitely be going back

Nice site with a nice pub with a river view, food expensive.
Toilet block needs updating,
Small park for children but nothing else.
Ok for a weekend stay.

Nice site with plenty of room.
Reception always friendly and helpful. Good pub at site entrance.
Excellent local beer & really good food (though not cheap).
Riverside location is superb.
Nearby road but very quiet at night,
Can't comment on facilities as we always use the ones in our 'van.
Will stay here again.

Lovely site, open field and very quiet, in a beautiful position by the river. Pub nearby is a great asset for food and drinks.
The ducks are amazing and a part of the whole stay experience.
Facilities basic but ok, cleaned daily.
Will definitely stay again

Lovely location on the River. Not too busy. Good for walks along the river.
Great pub food. Facilities good, the campsite is very flat and a good size so easy to spread yourself out or camp in a group.
Toilet block needs updating but I've seen a lot worse and they are clean.
When I was there most campers had caravans and motorhomes so the toilets and showers were not used that much by campers anyway.

Just returned from the bank holiday weekend, ( the one with the heat wave) what a beautiful site, level grass, water points near by, and a stunning location.
Friendly welcome by the new owners, but sadly after that we never really saw them again. Being a BH with super perfect weather you would think such a lovely site would be full, but no there was loads of room. No queues in the toilet block for showers, sinks, loos at all.
Perhaps the reason for that is the state of the toilet/shower block itself?
Yes it's as old as Gods dog, but even so it should be kept as clean as possible and sadly that didn't seem to be the case or even very high on the list.
With a modern (CLEAN) block this site would be a gem. There is a pub at the entrance that serves good beers and excellent food so what is not to like?
All the ladies in our party said they would not return due to the state of the block, lots of hair blocking the shower drains and sinks. Toilet bowls dirty throughout the whole weekend.
As we guys know, if the wives aint happy then you can cross the site off the list for return visits.
Two stars due to flat level grass and site location, oh and the pub, but I have no idea if that is linked to the site owners at all.
PRICE PER PITCH (TENT WITH EHU) was £15 per night.
I did overhear a conversation between two campers who thought that the block was to be modernised soon. I am unable to confirm that, but perhaps others can.
If you have a unit with shower/toilet included the this site could be for you. Tenters may not be so keen. Just my opinion of course.

Nice quiet site. Stayed for two nights over a weekend whilst visiting family. Would happily use this site again, and probably will! Very reasonable price for a pitch with hook up.
It's under new management and they seem to be improving it from what looks like a state of disrepair by the previous owners.
The toilet block is basic and old but fine. The cesspit smells a bit if you're near to it and downwind. Go for the main field to avoid it. Quite a few seasonal pitches with caravans but the site was very quiet at night. Nice kids play park and loads of room for them to run and cycle in safety.
Next door to the Red Lion Pub. Didn't go in but it looked nice.

This site has dramatically changed with the new management, a really lovely young man and woman who cannot do enough to help, are polite and working hard, only been here around 1 month.
It is friendlier, much cleaner, smells good, a great atmosphere.
Well worth coming to, has great views, lovely camping field, is quiet and we'll kept.
Will highly recommended a stay here.

This is a lovely site in a very picturesque setting alongside the River Severn. We were able to get a hardstanding pitch for our motorhome but it was only separated from the road by a hedge. Although to be fair, it wasn't a problem, noise wise. When we return we will choose a grass pitch on the other side. The toilet block is clean with plenty of loos and showers, which are hot and free plus laundry and washing up facilities. There is no problem with light pollution so star gazing is a bonus. The pub next door serves excellent food but beware the Sunday breakfast chef.

We stayed here for a couple of nights in July. It is a nice site, flat pitches that are a good size, lots of electric hook ups. Lots of resident ducks who are very friendly, just watch out for the duck poo 😀 It is by the river with nice walks and the Red Lion pub next door. Small shop with the basic provisions. Owner was fine with us but he isn't Mr friendly and helpful (as other reviewers have mentioned). He showed us to our pitch and and does drive round checking everything is ok so.
Toilet block has definitely seen better days but is large, plenty of toilets and hot spacious showers - lots of space, hooks and chair for your clothes etc. (never full while we were there) wash up area fine. A few children on site seemed to think the toilet block was a play area, making piles of toilet paper and emptying bins on to he floor but that is not the fault of the owner! Ignore the review for this place where someone mentions a new toilet block as it definitely isn't!
Pub next door was nice, with tables by the river. Food was fine but not amazing.

Stayed here for one night only, would have liked to stay longer but had to be elsewhere next day. Nice and quiet and right next to the river, with lots of places to sit right on the bank. Has all you need to have a pleasant stay. (Pub next door).

Husband & I decied to get away for a week after I had surgery so I could really rest and recover.
I rang in advance and got plenty of information from Jan who was really helpful.
We arrived and she got us on the perfect pitch and couldn't help us enough.
We were really lucky to have a week of glorious weather, so it was just what the Dr ordered!
There was only 1 motorhome on the site and up the top end was a static & a few old tourers which I think were perhaps residents there.
Despite being just off the main road, the site was really quiet.
The new shower block is lovely & the shower rooms are massive! Very warm though as the radiators were on full blast - there was no control to access to turn it down, so I used the disabled shower while I was there as it was cooler. I can imagine in the winter months the temperature is perfect.
There is a washing machine in the shower block which takes tokens - these can be purchased from the pub for £2 - we didn't actually use the machine while we were there though.
There is an 'old' toilet & shower block on the site which we used a few times, but mainly just for the toilet - or for a shower in the cooler room!
There is a children's play area but we didn't use this.
Fantastic location for a bike ride - my Husband went out everyday on his bike!
We ate at the pub everyday - varied between breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Each time we went in, the service was quick and the food was lovely with a good choice on the menu. A good selection of drinks is available.
We also signed up for the QI loyalty card - as we were there all week and we WILL be back, we decided we would take advantage!
Jan wasn't on the site all day everyday, but did come down to the site each day. She always stopped and had a chat and nothing was too much trouble for her.
All in all, a lovely site and a great pub.
We WILL be back!

What a great spot, right next to a very nice pub, by the side of the river Severn, don't know what previous reviewer did to upset them but they were very friendly even allowing our dog into the bar. And the food was very good.
The site itself is great in so many ways, clean showers and toilets large cubicles and always warm, just one thing to be aware of if the lights go out then the water heater also goes off so not only is it dark but very cold, unless you're willing to leave the cubicle and move to make sensor work.
If you're taking your dog we always do, you can walk your feet off just go out back of site and go, or cross the road and walk along the river.
There is a shop of sorts but very limited, why do you need a newspaper when on holiday?
Will we return hope so!
Just thought I'd better add what great, value £12. 00 a night with ehu and dog, GREAT!

Went here last weekend for a two night stay. Arrived before said booking in time, although only 20 mins and had no trouble booking in. Gent who booked us in was fine, showed us to our pitch and asked if it was OK, if not he would show us others further into the site. We were happy with this and was directed into position. Various amenities pointed out and we were left to set up. As said previously the toilet block and fittings are old but quite adequate. Level flat site which I guess as a river site is prone to flooding, electric hook up point needed for me to stand on our caravan step to reach. This to keep the electrics out of the water, good idea. Pub next door very nice and meals, although pub meals were well cooked and large portions. Would not hesitate to use again.

Date of arrival 12th September 20014 at 8pm
Lane leading to camp site very narrow so beware.
Reception area has a constant chain smoker this being done both inside and out. Site Manager has no customer skills what so ever, a very rude person and very abrupt.
Electrical hook-up point inactive so had to call site Manager out and had to shake the electrical box to get it working.
Toilets were clean but outdated.
Reception shop area very limited not a newspaper in site.
Campsite pitching area is very large and flat with a pond and ducks - woo hoo BONUS.
Horrible stench from refuse that is stacked in an open skip right opposite the reception area.
The Red Lion Pub --- lovely setting but spoilt by unhelpful staff, this is surely a Local pub for local people you know. Stay off the moors!
