Why stay here ...

Ian, Becky, and family welcome you to their site, we welcome couples, families, and dogs.

We are located between Bridgnorth and Kidderminster, one mile from the village of Alveley on a quiet country lane overlooking the Severn Valley with stunning Views of the Clee Hill, Brown Clee, and the Wyre Forest.

The historical old coal mining village of Alveley has several traditional local public houses serving food with outside seating areas, an Indian restaurant and takeaway and a Chinese take away along with a well-stocked convenience store.

The Severn Valley is home to the beautiful River Severn, the famous Severn Valley Railway which runs through glorious countryside following the River Severn between the historic market towns of Bridgnorth and Bewdley, finishing in Kidderminster operating every day throughout the spring, summer and autumn.

Canoe trips are very popular on the River Severn, from Bridgnorth to Upper Arley, with a stop off for lunch. We are on cycle Route 45, with great links to other trails throughout the area. Walking and hiking is very well catered for with great public footpaths, river walks and forest trails all within the local area.

The picturesque village of Upper Arley on the river, boasts riverside tearoom, the Harbour public house serving food with outside seating area, Upper Arley Train Station taking you back in time to the days of the steam trains and The Arboretum with its stunning gardens and tearoom.
