Great little stop over
The Malt Shovel
We stayed here for one night but would have been happy to stay longer. The pitches are flat with electric and water and waking up to see the donkeys in the adjacent field was great.
There is an easy dog walk and the warden was lovely. I imagine it more lively in the summer evenings, as there is a beer garden and what looks like an outdoor kitchen, which would be fun.
We cycled into Lichfield for the day (about 3 miles) and later spent some time in the cosy bar and also the restaurant, which served great food and everyone was really friendly. Thank you.
Nice site spoiled by possible noise issues.
The Malt Shovel
Chose this site on the basis of being able to visit Lichfield. Site comprises of four hard standing pitches and grass pitch area at the rear of the pub. Each hard standing pitch has own tap and electricity supply. There is a designated dog walking area. The pub serves decent if expensive meals. Our great disappointment was the very inconsiderate neighbours who constantly banged their car doors for 45 minutes very early one morning. The pitches are screened only by a hedge and offer no buffer to noise behind. The same night, the local children were allowed to play out in the pub garden and use play equipment until 12.50 am. When I spoke to them, they glibly told me they didn’t go to bed until 1am until the pub closed! For this reason I would not recommend if you want your rest. It was very stressful having children shouting and screaming at that time of night! This is a shame as overall this is a nice site effectively having a super pitch but we value our rest while away.
Great overnight stopover
The Malt Shovel
We have stayed here overnight on 2 occasions. The pitches are level and hardstanding. There are walks for dogs nearby. The site is gated with access in the pub. We will use it again, as we attend an event nearby a couple of times a year.
Weekend stay.
The Malt Shovel
Lovely well maintained site. Friendly staff. Water tap on pitch. Had Sunday carvery which was delicious. Would recommend.
Great overnight stop
The Malt Shovel
Great overnight stop. We had a lovely meal at the Pub restaurant which has a very good reputation in its own right. Great value for money both for site and meal.
