CL of the Year Award 2023 - Best Newcomer
Award winning Betley Park has stunning views across the Shropshire hills, and is located just a short walk from Lyth Hill Country Park.
The site is run by the Guy & Jo who organise the hugely popular campervan and motorhome event 'Vanlove Fest'. The CL benefits from electric hookups, fresh water point, free Wi-Fi, Elsan waste point and many hidden gems including Betley Hideaway, a turn of the 20th century pigsty that's been converted to an outdoor bar and BBQ area. We also offer E-Bike hire thanks to our partnership with MiRider.
Despite feeling miles from anywhere we're only 10 minutes from the centre of Shrewsbury and perfectly located as a stopover if you're heading on a Welsh adventure, with the Welsh coast just a 90 minute drive away.
We welcome dogs so long as they're well behaved and this is an Adult Only site.
Transport links are fantastic being close to the A49 and A5 and a bus service runs from outside the site. We also offer guided walks with our host, Jo Fallows, a trained Wellness Expert, who will take you on the most amazing walks in the local area.
More details can be found on our website. Once loged in, please click on the green 'Website' Button wiich will take you through to our page were you can also make a booking.

A Quick Stop
Although this was a quick one night stop it was just perfect. Guy came and introduced himself. We were up and away early however I’m sure we would have had a long conversation if we were staying. Far reaching views, lovely area to chill out. Thank you

Lovely site
This is what a CL site should be! Fabulous views, friendly owners and clean and easily accessible CDP, bins and drinking water. The hideaway is a lovely touch and I imagine would be great on a summers evening. We walked to Shrewsbury and got the bus back, such a lovely... Show more

A great location…
…for walking and cycling - and a short bus ride into Shrewsbury. The spacious site offers fine views. We chose a grass pitch but two of the others are hardstanding. Depending on the wind direction the nearby A49 road can be noisy but quietens down at night. A nice touch is... Show more

Beautiful site
We had a lovely 3 night stay on this delightful CL. No faults to find. Magnificent views, friendly owner, basic facilities, but very nicely done. The hideaway is very special and I can imagine it’s a great place to spend time in nice weather. Excellent access for Shrewsbury and all... Show more

Wow wow wow, a true gem of a place.
There aren't any words that can describe this CL that do it justice. Views are breathtaking, and the pitches are level and positioned to make the most of the views. The hideaway is a little gem and we will be back when it's a bit warmer to take... Show more
