Date of Visit: August 2009 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: Craggus 2 reviews from this member

 This was our first ever visit to a Camping & Caravan site since joining the club, and if they are all as nice as this one then we will be very happy indeed. We received a warm friendly welcome when we arrived on the Friday, and this helpful nature was maintained throughout the duration of our stay.

We were one of only a handful of tents on-site, and our pitch was right down at the far end overlooking a cow field, which meant that we heard very little of the traffic on the A5 that runs nearby. We were able to position our chairs and BBQ facing towards the fields and away from the rest of the site. It was as if we were camping on our own in the middle of nowhere, which was lovely.

The shower block is extremely smart and clean. Only three male showers caused a few delays in the morning rush, but we didn’t have to wait more than a few minutes for one to become available. Likewise the dishwashing facilities are smart and clean. In fact, the whole site is one of the cleanest we have seen; even the rubbish areas were spotless.

I suppose if I was going to pick any faults at all, it would have been nice if the shop had been open before 9 am each morning, and the closure of the shower block for a few hours every day is a little excessive (although probably worth it due to just how clean everything was) - these are only very minor quibbles, and did not detract from the wonderful time we had here.

In short, we had a lovely weekend break here, and certainly plan to return again next year for another (longer) visit.

 We have just come back from a three night stay at this campsite and loved it.

The site itself is easy to access straight off the A5, on arrival the reception staff (franchise owners) were friendly and helpful. We were given a choice of pitches and were offered help, if needed. We were given clear information on site facilities where everything was and what was available in the surrounding area.

The access to water points and water disposal was excellent and clean; the bin storage was split into two sections general and recycle again clean and easy to access.

The toilet block / washing area / chemical toilet disposal area were immaculate, the toilets look like they have been recently refurbished and are well looked after. You don't have to pay for showers and there was an abundance of hot water, and we never had to queue. The only negative is that there is no temperature control on the shower and they did get quite hot, although I'm sure that down to personal preference!

The surrounding area has a retail park, supermarket, fuel stations all within 5 minutes. Oswestry itself is also well worth a visit.

Reviewer: Eustace 10 reviews from this member

 Our third visit to this site. Previously with a caravan. Each time a very friendly welcome by Alan and Gail. Showers etc are now excellent and spotlessly clean. A credit to them. Main A5 is very busy but not a problem. In fact very useful for using bus service to Oswestry or Shrewsbury. We used bus to visit the food festival. Annual event. Well worth a visit. Overall a pleasure to stay here. Will return.

Reviewer: RIMMER 207 reviews from this member

 Agree with most previous comments as to the spotlessness and tranquillity of this site, just off the busy A5 but the road noise didn't bother me. As has been mentioned this site is remote with no pub or shop within reasonable walking distance but the area is quite good for cycling being not too hilly. By turning left out of the site and left again leads you to the many country lanes so with an OS map you can make your own cycle route. We cycled to The GBG listed Royal Inn, Edgerley overlooking the river Severn and with its own campsite then to The Tontine Inn, Melverley for a ploughmans to die for before the return leg back to the campsite. 


Date of Visit: June 2009 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Buzby 7 reviews from this member

 Visited with friends (2 couples in total). Had read previous reviews & decided to try it ourselves.Very easy access, just off A5 at Wolfshead roundabout. Concerned about previous reviewers comments re road noise, but we hardly heard it. Roughly half way between Oswestry & Shrewsbury, so very handy for visiting N Shropshire/Welsh borders.If on our own would possibly have used public transport more, as there is a half hourly bus service to both Oswestry & Shrewsbury within 5/6 minutes walk-take your bus pass!We visited the museums at Ironbridge, Pontcysyllte Aqueduct (need a head for heights!)& the RAF Museum at Cosford (completely free & a full day needed). Site shop sells basics, a fish & chip van comes on Friday teatime. It`s a bit pricey,but saves cooking.Local village approx 1 mile away.

Facilities on site excellent, a credit to the franchisees. Toilets & showers spotless, with plenty of hot water. Washing up facilities, with several sinks, each with a bowl. Laundry had a deep sink for hand washing, again plenty of hot water, a Bosch washer plus a huge tumble dryer.Washer paid for on honesty basis via reception, unusual these days. Plenty of tourist information leaflets, plus knowledgeable staff.

We did not see any play area, but did not need it, not having children with us.Site immaculately kept, with hard roads, plenty of hardstandings, very well draining ground, plus lots of flower beds & tubs. All in all one of the best sites we have visited. Definitely worth another visit. Not the cheapest, but well worth the fees paid.

Date of Visit: May 2009 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Markstan56 2 reviews from this member

 We visited the Oswestry site during the May bank holiday weekend, and found it to be very pleasant.
On arrival the wardens Alan and Gail were very friendly and we were shown to our pitch and helped to manouvre into place. We had a grass pitch which was very well drained and almost level.

We were not too far from the toilet and shower blocks which were kept spotless. There is only one block for the whole site so these do get a bit crowded around the morning rush. The site has no play area for the kids but they do seem to make their own entertainment.

Overall a very pleasant and quiet site which we have already booked a return visit too as we did not have enough time to explore the area as much as we would have liked. Well worth a visit and well done again to the friendly club and the site wardens for making our stay a happy one.

Reviewer: Joona 14 reviews from this member

 A lovely clean site just before oswestry. Facilities superb but just a bit to remote for my liking ie. you need your car.
A chip van calls on a Friday which is a big help when I got there at 7.30 at night. Shall definitely return but just for a weekend break 


Date of Visit: April 2009 Unit:  Trailer Tent
Reviewer: Steve McV 21 reviews from this member

 A very clean & well run site. Good if a little remote location mid-way between Oswestry Shrewsbury. Facilities are clean & well serviced by the very friendly staff.
There is plenty of space both on grass & gravel pitches. The site slopes gently & is well drained with good gravel roads. There is a dog walking area, but I would have liked to see some play facilities as there were quite a few kids on site.
There is a bit of noise from the busy A5 road nearby, but this didn't keep us awake. The shop sells the basics & takes orders for morning papers.
Oswestry is nice & has a good range of shops. There is an Indian Restaurant within walking distance that we got a nice take-away from one evening, & a mobile chip shop comes on some nights. There is no pub nearby, but there are some nice local walks. We would certainly go back if in the area again.

Reviewer: Chaingang 5 reviews from this member

 The other reviewers seem to have covered everything about this site - spotless showers, loads of hot water, very quiet and friendly staff.

We used the bus to go to Shrewsbury (every 30mins) and Gail gave us a timetable and told us exactly where the stop was.

As we like walking and cycling the site is very well placed as far as we are concerned with lots of small roads round about and we are certainly intending to return. The reception/shop has leaflets about walks and cycle rides from the site. 


Date of Visit: October 2008 Unit:  Motorhome
Reviewer: JasonSheffield 5 reviews from this member

 Our second visit to the site this year, and we found everything tip top just like our last visit. The owners remembered us (I hope we weren't that bad) and again showed us to the pitch and pointed out the hook up post and so on.

We used the local bus to Shrewsbury and found this bus service to be very good. We were not sure where to get off though on the way back but fortunately the bus driver shouted 'campsite stop!'

The grounds are very well kept and clean, despite the autumn weather.

We did make use of the washing up facilities on site and there were several very clean sinks available with hot water.

The motorhome service point gets 10 out of 10 from use for ease of access for a larger van.

We hope to return just after the New Year, if only to stock up with more of the local rapeseed oils from the shop on site. We are using the lemon flavour at the moment and it is delicious. We think we will plan our future visits to the site around how much oil we use.
