Reviewer: Raymond Liddell 1 review from this member

 Been here a good few times and find it really good, kids love it,and grandkids, you can find a quiet corner, if that's what you need.

This is a fun place to be not a, ' I need to be asleep by ten type of person, if you have the children, book near the EHU at the park end. But ALWAYS be on the lookout for your children, VERY near the river.

Disco's on different days, at night of course, I find the food good for the money.

I used to have a tent and loved it, now got an old camper,even better.

This site has got quite popular lately, going to have to start booking.

 As a fisherman, I went to pay unicorn inn a visit with the family to see how the river was shaping up. Had a brilliant time, kids enjoyed the park and loads of scenic views to take in while walking the dogs. Food was really nice and a good variety of alcohol since the new management has taken over

Also discovered the stretch of river around the blue bridge which was once overgrown and belonged to the barbell society and produced some big fish has been taken over and is available on a day ticket, looks really nice with comfortable pegs

 A group of us (adults and children) stopped for 2 nights at Easter and had a great time and have now re-booked to go back. Site is more suited to those wanting a more lively camping experience.
Site is situated between Bridgnorth and Highley. Make sure you head towards Highley and not on the other side of the River Severn on the Kidderminster rd as it's a long round trip if you get it wrong. Pub on site serves good food.
Small children's park. Toilet block is basic but ok with free showers. Ladies toilets have washing-up sink and drainer with plenty of hot water. Site is next to river. Some electric hook-ups. Dogs allowed but should be on leads at all times. Nearest shops at Highley (about 2.5 miles away).

Bridgnorth is nice old market town (about 6 miles away). Hampton Loade foot ferry should now be back in operation taking foot passengers across River Severn to other side. Plenty of nice walks.

 My wife and I decided to go for a quiet bank holiday, we both love fishing so we headed for this site. BIG MISTAKE!

We pitched our tent only to have free roaming dogs run wild, a child no older than six years on a mini motorcycle without a helmet ride over our outside blanket with his parents just laughing. Things got worse from that moment on with dimwits drinking lager from cans and swearing every other word, some clearly under the drinking age.

Constant noise from car stereos along with cars being driven without any care to other people didn't help. The toilet blocks were awful, empty cans left in the sinks, toilets unflushed, I didn't even attempt the showers. From dusk until the early hours of Sunday there was drunken singing, along with arguments and the custom foul language. The site is operated by the pub landlord, nothing was done to contain the noise a mayhem upon the site.

It is the first time in my 30 years of camping that I have felt at risk from neighbouring campers. I am glad we didn't take our children as they would have been terrified by the surrounding ambience.

 We had a brilliant time at the unicorn campsite. The staff were really friendly and helpful. The pub on site was lovely, reasonably priced and the food menu had lots of variety. The campsite was very clean and looked after. You have the view of the river and steam trains go by. The showers and toilets were average they were fairly clean just an old set out. But wasn't a problem, at the end of the day YOUR CAMPING! I really enjoyed it, would highly recommend, will be going back.

Reviewer: Tvrbabe76 2 reviews from this member

 Stayed for the bank holiday. The weather was very hot so that made it better ! The toilets and shower blocks are not very clean at all never no toilet roll so take your own or use the pub toilets. They booked so many in for the bank holiday the tents were really close together not very good for health and safety. No lighting on the park or nowhere for the children to see as it starts to get dark !
The lady who was in charge was no help what so ever and got chatting to other people and they said the same. The pub came alive from about 9pm The food is not the best and the bins were over loaded by far and was not emptied all weekend.

Good for people who like fishing .

 Stayed here for a night to try out our tent as it is local to us. Great location, especially if you are into steam trains (as the Severn Valley usually runs past, although not at present - summer 2007 - due to flood damage). Good for fishing also. The pub is ok, nothing special and the facilities were a bit dirty. There is also a small childrens play area. There was a fair bit of noise from other campers who drove round the site at night with stereos blaring, the owners didn't seem to worried. Maybe we stayed at the wrong time but I wouldn't go back, which is a shame, as the location is perfect.

 This was the 1st campsite I ever tried!
 
Not too bad but music from the pub went well over midnight!
 
Breakfast was night and well worth the wait, nice walks and 2 more pubs across the severn were there is a hand ferry that cost 20p each way.  Kids loves it.
 
Only downside was the toilet block, that  was dirty, but it did not put me off camping!

Reviewer: GillianE9 2 reviews from this member

 The campsite has a lot of space for tents and is very flat although the lack of rain made the ground rock hard to bang in the tent pegs. The childrens play area had a lot of different things to play on. The Ladies toilet block had three showers, three basins, three toilets and one washing up sink. No toilet roll provided but hot water is free. No female sanitary arrangements provided and no plugs in the basins or sink. I understand the men's toilets were similarly arranged.

We were there the first Bank holiday weekend in May and the weather was good which bought out the lower ends of humanity to the site. Our first night (Thursday) was very pleasant as they hadn't arrived and being right next to the River Severn all the wildlife could be heard ducks, pheasants, owls etc. The next night and following day were completely different with smoking in the toilets, load music from each tent competing with the other to drown out the other music, weeing out the back, shouting and children running around at 12.30am in the morning. There seemed to be a lack of control by the owner which allowed this inconsiderate behaviour to continue.
