Sue Furneaux, on this campsite in August 2023

Travelling party: Couple

Don’t go, the shabby campsite has the worst cafe ever experienced. disgusting cheapest frozen products at a price that one would think was decent. The nearest town in walking distance, Wem is as run down as the campsite. a total waste of money; came home the same day. La Con sums it up.

Travelling party: Couple

Good value for money and large pitches. Approximately 20 minutes into the town and a few nice pubs. Would return again to this campsite if in the area.. Swimming pool not open yet but looked good
