 Lovely natural site.
Huge field with only 5 pitches and small stream running next to it.
Campfires are allowed, but unfortunately local garage sold us unseasoned wood which wouldn't burn :-(.
We had an amazingly peaceful time on a scorching (at times) bank holiday weekend and will definitely be back.
We had read that there was only one toilet and shower and thought that with only 5 pitches, this wouldn't present a problem.
What we didn't realise was that the toilet and shower were combined. Facilities were perfectly adequate - shower was great in fact. The set up did present a problem however in that the toilet was unusable by others when someone is showering. This did become a bit of a problem in the morning as one of the 5 pitches was occupied by a family group of about 20. If they beat us to the bathroom, you had to cross your legs for a long long long time!

This is what campsites should be about! As always, you never quite know what delights or horrors await when you finally reach your destination and start pitching your tent. But if a large open field away from main roads and next to a gently flowing stream are what ticks your boxes, then Coates Farm is a must!
On a typically wet English summer's weekend we used the site as a base to explore by bike what can only be described as breathtaking surroundings. Picturesque Church Stretton is a short ride away and a great place to stock up on picnic provisions (there's an award winning deli) before heading into the hills. There are plenty of nice pubs to warm your cockles afterwards too!
I can only echo previous reviews about the shower facilities at Coates Farm. Yes there is only 1, but quality more than makes up for quantity as you can enjoy a warm and powerful jet that many a hotel would be proud of!
To cap it all, campfires are allowed. The icing on the cake in my book and a sure fire way to capture the back to basics / back to nature adventure (power shower included) that camping can be. Highly recommended and we'll be returning.

Lovely quiet campsite with a real escape from it all feel. No road noise, just birds and a babbling brook that runs alongside camping field. Huge field for the kids to play in, and very quiet, amongst beautiful scenery. No electric hook ups, and no caravans as a result. (There was a separate site for caravans with electric hook ups further up the farm track lane - quite a way from this field).
Farmer and his wife are really friendly and helpful. There is a tennis court you can use next to the beautiful black and white timbered farmhouse. Lots of cows and dogs to amuse the kids. A big barn with a badminton court in for when the weather is poor. Just one shower/ toilet in same room, a bit of a trek from the camping field but perfectly adequate and shower was free. Lots of walks along old rail track and up into beautiful hills direct from campsite. Best of all the farmer allows campfires. There are plenty of places to go searching for wood, which the kids loved, and we had the best camp fire we have ever had in all our years camping. We saw the brightest biggest shooting star I have ever seen - just beautiful If you like quiet sites with no one else around, just nature then you'll like this site - it's idyllic.
No shops nearby, nearest pub was in Longville. The one in Rushbury/Wall under Heywood was for sale. Good children's playground in Wall under Heywood which you can get to on circular walk from campsite. Very close to Wenlock edge, so lots of walking.
Be careful, there is more than one Coates Farm on this road, and they both do camping, so don't get them mixed up!

This site is my idea of heaven in fact a photo of the sun setting over the trees was my screensaver for ever.
We were the only campers on the site which is actual an uncultivated area at the end of the farmers field.
Be warned there is no hook up and facilities are very basic and near the farmhouse away from the field.
The owners are friendly and allowed us to use the tennis court behind their house which was fun.
We visited west Midlands safari park whilst here but lots around and about don't miss out on the wonderful farm & butchers up the road, their meat is beautiful.

We stayed in two small tents in the middle of August. We would echo the comments made by 'Quinnys' - the shower is surprisingly effective, even though it is a bit of a walk from the camping field.
The owner of the site was extremely friendly, which made for a really relaxing stay. We were able to get (very) fresh milk from the farmhouse - apparently destined for Cadbury's, where they are also able to provide eggs. Nearby farms provide other food if required. We were even lent a walking map for one of the days of our stay.
We too had a very pleasant encounter with Willow the labrador who was less interested in the sausages we were cooking and more interested in the next person to throw her ball for her.
All in all a very relaxing weekend. Would recommend.

We visited the site with another family the Tuesday following the bank holiday. We were the only people there and it was lovely. The pitches are at the bottom end of a field just off the main track down to the farmhouse. The shower and toilet facilities are at the farmhouse, so it was a bit of a trek, especially for the kids. The facilties were very basic, but the shower was fantastic. We could use the kitchen at the back of the farmhouse to wash up if we so wished. The owner was very polite and friendly as was the labrador who kept the children amused. We were allowed to build a camp fire which made it a real camping experience for us. I would recommend the site, especially if you want to go as a group, a really nice setting ... we had a great time.
