Date of Visit: May 2013 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Setter50 21 reviews from this member

 We stayed here for two nights at the end of our tour of Wales to break up the journey home to Wiltshire. It's a very nice site, typical of the C&CC sites. Very easy access from the A5 which, although very near, never gave rise to any disturbing road noise. A very warm welcome on arrival and the warden gave us the choice of a couple of pitches which were both fine. Suggested we go 'nose in' to face south and get the best of the views (caravan club please note!). Plenty of walks nearby, including Nescliffe Country Park just down the road (but not very easy to find!) and the old Oswestry racecourse. Also along the Shropshire Union canal (or is it the Montgomery canal - couldn't quite work that one out!)

If you're staying here and looking to eat out you simply MUST try The Navigation Inn at nearby Maesbury Marsh where we had possibly the best pub meal out we've ever experienced - a great set price 2 or 3 course menu with a good variety of interesting dishes on each course ( and a honey and sultana rice pudding to die for!)

It's a shame we were only staying for a couple of nights as we'd have liked to explore the area more; we rarely visit Shropshire but are always impressed when we do.

 Staying on the site with children - disappointing that non EHU hook up for tents are the furthest away from all the facilities so a bit of a hike to the loos and washing up, but never mind.

Not much for children to do, as no field and no ball games allowed, but luckily the park in Oswestry provided a good opportunity for them to let off steam.

A nice, well kept site, but probably not one I would return to with the children - they don't need a playground but somewhere they can play a few ball games, away from the other visitors, would have been welcomed.

 Have just returned (very reluctantly) from a very peaceful weekend at Cranberry Moss. The wardens were exceptionally helpful and friendly and very welcoming.

If you have dogs this site is for you. There is a small dog walk on site and, just at the main entrance, there is a bridle way for longer runs. Our dogs had a great time.

Very good bus service in to Shrewsbury also near entrance so you don't have to worry about parking in town. The lovely woods surrounding the site are full of different birds. One camper told us that they had seen 14 different species. Rabbits and squirrels run all over the site which drove our dogs nuts not being able to chase them.

The site itself is very well kept and the toilet block very clean. The little touches like bowls of flowers and scented soaps make such a difference. Definitely a site to return to as there is so much to see in the surrounding area that we did not have time to visit.

I know we will be back soon.

 Stayed at this site for 3 nights over the jubilee weekend. Greeted by very friendly warden who gave us a choice of where we could pitch and pointed out where all the facilities were.

Lovely site, well laid out and all had plenty of space.

Showers were at a fixed temperature and as usual with this type not very warm. Think this site must have septic tanks and at times a very nasty niff by the loo blocks.

Wardens put on a lovely day for jubilee and nothing was too much trouble for them, they even asked us if we wanted to move pitch because our tv reception was poor.

Public transport let us down, yes there are two bus stops by site entrance, but bank holidays run a Sunday service and guess what there is no Sunday service.

Lovely flowers and shrubs on site and site is kept immaculately clean. Will return, but when buses are running. 


Date of Visit: May 2012 Unit:  Trailer Tent
Reviewer: Beanpark 4 reviews from this member

 This was our 2nd year of going here and will be back again.

A family run site that big enough to be able to use facilities and not too overcrowded not to get into them easily. Clean and well cared for.

Also the owners situated on site makes it more comfortable & feel safe especially if your alone or feel vulnerable. Always someone around keeping an eye on things. Watch out for the little people on their bikes.

The site is not far from Oswestry town and you can go via main road or back lanes to get to it. Then a surprise awaits as it has so many back lanes, small alleys, little places tucked away to explore. There must be miles of walking or just mooching around at your pace. Go by bus not far from the site takes you to Oswestry or the other way to the big city of Shrewsbury.

These are hilly places so disability, although accessible its more difficult if alone. Otherwise with aid its manageable. We managed and I'm in a wheelchair. We still have a lot to see. Thoroughly enjoyed our peaceful stay.

 Visited this site in May for the bank holiday, nearly didn't go because of the weather forecast but glad we did. Ideal site for couples, plenty of good places to eat within the area, excellent curry at the Enigma.

4 National Trust properties within a short drive.

Facilities as with all Camping and Caravan Club sites; outstanding. Washing cubicles and showers clean and roomy.

Staff very friendly and extremely helpful, small shop (papers need to be ordered the day before).

Pitches are flat and well drained.

Not much for children though. 


Date of Visit: April 2012 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Tom Thumb 34 reviews from this member

 We have just returned from 6 days at this site, it is easy to find if you follow the directions in the sites book, booking in was easy and so friendly, once done we had a short wait until Peter had placed 2 other units, he was very proficient at guiding us onto the pitch.

Right by the entrance gate is a bridal path that is wide and miles long, ideal for walkers or dogs.

We had lots and lots of rain while we were there, but the ground stayed firm.

We visited Powis castle and Welshpool, both were really enjoyable, you are also close to Shrewsbury, Which is also worth a visit.

Facilities are good, showers very hot!

Despite being close to a major road the site is very quiet. Shop could do with being open a little more, we were told to ring if we wanted anything but you don't like disturbing people.

One of our favourite sites. We will return.

Reviewer: Sue Paul 80 reviews from this member

 Upon arrival no hello just 'Can you tell me why you parked there', as there were no signs where to park I just made sure I didn't block the entrance/exit up ! A very cold welcome.

Peter took us to a choice of pitches so things improved then, site was lovely and clean and well organised.

Site is very remote and pub a tricky walk along a busy road with no pavements. Walks nearby are superb once you prize the written details.

Dog area was only about 100 mtrs long with no lighting so pitch black at night and as only a narrow foot path with a small gap one side and a steep bank the other then dogs almost have to go on the path, very poor.

Reviewer: 533rockape 8 reviews from this member

 This site is everything you need for a quiet relaxing time. Met on arrival by Alan with a hand shake and a warm welcome, shown to a pitch of my choice and a quick run down on where everything was, then it was a case of we're here if you need us and apart from a cheery hello when they saw me I was left alone.

The showers and toilets are clean and never seemed to be full, every time I went over it was straight in with no waiting. A good dog walk up the bridle path along side the site kept my two dogs more than happy.

Oswestry is a short drive one direction and Shrewsbury the opposite, both have all the facilities you need for stocking up on things. There didn't appear to be much close by pubs and shops, but it's no hardship to travel to find these things should you need them.

There were no children with us so I cannot comment on how they would find the site, but I would imagine it would be a bit of a challenge for them to find much to do on or around the site.

I have no hesitation in recommending this site to my fellow travellers, if it's peace and quiet you like then this is a place for you.

 We visited this lovely campsite during half term for 5 nights with a non-serviced grass tent pitch. Although the site is only small we had enough room & were given a choice of pitches on arrival.

We chose one almost as far from the toilet block as possible & it was great! There are three showers in each block (mens & womens) & 5 toilets, although not many we never had to queue (someone was waiting for a shower when I came out once.)

Water was always hot for showers & washing up (4 sinks) & all these areas were absolutely spotless, it didn't matter what time of day. The information given on arrival said no ball games but our children (8 & 10) did play a bit of football & no body seemed to mind!

We visted some of the Ironbridge Gorge Museums, which were fantastic, also Oswestry & Shrewsbury, this was an especially lovey town, while we were there. The weather wasn't brilliant, it rained most nights but didn't spoil it for us!

The only downside that we found was that there wasn't really any pubs to walk to, we all took bikes & had to go a fair distance to find somewhere to stop off.
