Great level grass site on the banks of the river Severn. Perfect location for visiting the Severn Valley Railway (heritage steam trains) as the line is right next to the site & a station a stone's throw away.
Site was £15 per night + £1 per each adult (not sure about charge for kids - we don't have any!) There's a £20 returnable deposit for the barrier fob.
The on-site pub serves great food at a reasonable price. New management this year.
Can't comment on child friendliness, but there were a few kids there & they seemed happy enough! via mobile
This site is in a stunning location with the river on one side of the site and up the hill, the steam railway on the other.
The views are uninterrupted from the field to the river, however when you look up to the railway line to catch the train, there are a lot of statics and seasonal pitches lined up, but this did not bother me.
On arrival we had to check in at the pub and once I had found the front door, it was off to find the bar. It could be off putting if you are not used to the banter of the regulars who were congregated by the bar, but they were friendly and left me to myself.
Once checked in, key fob for the gate obtained and advised where the facilities block was, the girl advised we could pitch anyway along the riverside, as we did not have electric, and left us to it.
The site is lovely and flat and had no problem at all, no need for any levelling ramps. Dotted along the riverbank, alongside the pitches, there are paths down to the river where the fishing fanatics (and there were lots of them here) could go and spend the day.
The shower and toilet block is up by the pub and this was clean and did the job, no they are not plush, but if you need the loo or a shower, then they will do the job perfectly. I found them clean and stocked with loo paper, however there was no hot water on the second day, as the immersion had tripped. The day before this had happened too and the pub staff were instant to reset the switch. Although they will happily reset the switch and the water is hot again in minutes, this really should be updated to a new system that does not trip daily.
Also a quick lick of paint in the block would be a good idea, along with a shower curtain, screwing the hooks on the door in the showers and providing hand soap. But they work, functional and fine.
The pub is great, the regulars all know each other and enjoy good banter and we found them all to be happy, friendly and pleasant enough. They stock the usual range of beers, wines and spirits, along with crisps and some sweeties. The price for a Strongbow and a Stella 4 was £5. 20, bargain.
We ate in the pub on two nights and the food was brilliant. I was a little worried when we first went in for food as the smell of chip fat was present, but they were the best chunky chips I have had, and I do not like chunky chips normally. Very reasonably priced with most main meals: chilli con carne, cottage pie, lamb shank, etc. All being around £6. 25. Dog friendly too.
You can walk for miles and miles from the site, into Bridgnorth, or miles the other way and all walks are dog friendly. The people on the pitch next to us had a kayak, and I saw some others with a small dingy, so launching there is fine too.
Bridgnorth is a few miles away by car, but we did not venture there, but on driving through, it looked fairly large with a good range of shops.
There is a children's play area on site too, which looked dated, but perfectly safe and usable and lots of kids were enjoying themselves.
Overall I was pleased with the stay, this was a Wednesday and Thursday night we stayed, and the site was very peaceful and pretty empty.
From start to finish we had a wonderful time here.
All the staff (bar and warden) were friendly and helpful. As were the other campers.
This is a lovely little campsite.
At the entrance there is The Unicorn Inn. Toilets and showers and a playground.
There are pitches right next to the river Severn which can be fished.
There are walks through fields next to the river and through the lanes.
There is a steam train station (Hampton Loade) just 5 mins stroll away. You can see the train going past the campsite.
The Inn was really warm and welcoming. Food was delicious and plentiful with very reasonable prices. There is a lovely wood burner in the bar to warm you up after a days fishing.
Have known about this site for some time and so glad we finally got to come and stay for start of the river fishing season.
Did a 2 night stay in our tourer, with friends in a tent. Pitches were a good size and level. There was some confusion with someone being on the pitch we had been allocated but the boss came down and sorted things out quickly, despite the other party getting quite shirty with him. We were still given a double bay pitch which was great.
Loos and showers are basic but clean and the showers were hot and powerful.
Didn't get chance to try the pub grub as we'd taken so much of our own, but next time definitely.
The men loved the fishing and the other fishermen were very friendly, as were the staff.
No frills site, and if it only had a shop it would be perfect.
Great spot between river and Severn Valley Railway. We had booked 1 night and were allocated pitches near the children's play area, however we didn't realise some parents would allow their kids to still be in the play area at 11. 30pm.
Pub was noisy into the early hours and the site was packed while we were there. Ceiling had collapsed in mens toilets. Shower facilities smelt bad and weren't clean. Kids enjoyed it but we'll look elsewhere next time.
Set up tent on 29/08/16, stuck up the corner under a tree, mud and brambles behind it. Onsite bins were already overflowing, and by bank holiday Monday the rubbish was piled up and flies everywhere,
Showers were cold, and no loo roll.
Rowdy neighbours over the weekend finished this experience off for us,
Left 2 days early.
Pub seems ok and food looks good, Nice location by the Hampton loade SVR station, and fishing looks good, but wouldn't camp there again was £20 a night with EHU.
Great nights stay. Stayed on Wednesday night. 2 adults and a mad three year old train spotter.
Amazing location by the river and for steam trains from Hampton Loade station and from the campsite. Great pub with great ales good honest pub food at proper prices, good value couldn't finish our chicken and mushroom pie, veg lasagne and children's fish fingers, portions size was great. We had dinner about five so didn't have to wait long. Friendly staff
Quiet campsite as mid week. Next time we will stay two nights.
We have fallen in love with this place. Sandwiched between the Severn Valley steam railway and the River Severn, the spot is just beautiful and it is so nice to see the trains go by. Pitches are on grass, and we paid £17 a night for EHU, 2 adults and a dog. Showers are free and nice and hot. There was a biker meet-up happening when we were there which was ace.
We didn't use the pub this time round but it looks nice enough. An eclectic clientele and unique rocky atmosphere - we will definitely be back. Other reviews are right that there is no fence between the site and the river, so keep your eye on little ones (if you don't already!?!). Short walk to Chelmarsh Reservoir, and the historic Hampton Loade foot ferry is practically on the site.
