As has been previously mentioned, the views from the pitches are fabulous! The facilities are basic but clean. The shower pressure isn’t great but, as it has been explained, this is out of the owners hands. Nonetheless, you can still get a warm shower! Linda and her husband were helpful and informative. It’s a lovey walk down through the common to the river and Ludlow town centre, where there are plenty of places to eat and drink and lots to see. Ludlow brewery is was also worth the walk, to sample the excellent beer. The walk back up the hill to the campsite was a hard going on a hot afternoon but worth it!

The view from here could easily be one of the best in all of England. I'm not exaggerating. It's as if time has stood still here. Amazing. Β· via Google [Jenny Morris](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/104993529704266719320/reviews) β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… We stayed at this campsite purely by chance and can say it’s voted in our top 5 best sites. The hosts are wonderful along with the scenery. Level pitches, clean facilities and a lovely 20 mins walk down through the woods into the beautiful town of Ludlow, albeit quite a steep walk! Will definitely return.
