Our second visit to this superb CL.
A wonderfully quiet site in the heart of the beautiful Shropshire countryside, yet only about a mile or so from Much Wenlock, a really nice small market town - don't miss Ryan's Butchers in the High Street for the best selection of pies and other delicious food at very low prices. The Fox Inn is great for meals too.
Sue and Stuart are the most welcoming hosts you could ever find. Nothing is too much trouble and the site is immaculately maintained - all pitches are hard standing and have direct water and waste connected.
We had a serious problem with our Bailey caravan (new a year ago) when the water pump leaked and soaked all our bedding - everything, including quilts and pillows, soaked right through.
Bailey and our supplying dealer were uncontactable by phone over several hours and the Bailey dealer in the area would only deal with warranty work for their own customers, although they did help in the end by allowing us to swap the pump for a new one if we took the old one in and fitted it ourselves. Buyer beware and sparks will fly as this is the second such incident since buying new - battery charger failed in May with similar hopeless "support" under the Bailey warranty.
However, Sue took charge of the bedding, dried everything in her tumble dryer and both her and Stuart made their 'phone freely available all morning while we tried to find a dealer able to help - no signal for BT mobile on site unfortunately although other services can be picked up.
In the end we cut short our holiday and returned home as the brand new replacement pump we obtained and fitted leaked as soon as the water was switched on. Sue and Stuart really could not have done more to help us and gave up hours of their time.
Shropshire is England's best-kept secret and well worth a visit. If you like walking the nearby Wenlock Edge is lovely - turn left or right out of the site and within a mile or so there are free car parks on the opposite side of the road and you just follow the marked trails. Watch for buzzards overhead and Peregrines in the quarry.
Ludlow, Church Stretton, Bridgenorth (a working water mill and steam railway well worth a look), Ironbridge, Oswestry and Chester are all charming places to visit and you would need several trips to see them all.
You honestly will never find a better CL or kinder more caring owners. Will definitely return.
