Wild camping without the landowner's permission is illegal in England, so anywhere you pitch a tent around Welshampton needs to be an official site or with the express agreement of whoever owns the land. That said, this stretch of North Shropshire is well suited to camping trips: the terrain around the meres is gentle and largely flat, making for easy walking and cycling between sites, and the network of small lakes, canal towpaths and nature reserves gives campers plenty to explore without needing to drive far each day.

Touring caravan and camping sites in the area tend to be small, family-run affairs rather than large holiday parks, often set on farmland within a few miles of Welshampton, Colemere or Ellesmere. Facilities vary considerably from one site to the next, so it is worth checking what is included, particularly for anyone travelling with a tent rather than a caravan or motorhome. Glamping options, including shepherd's huts and static safari tents, have also become more common across rural Shropshire in recent years, offering a warmer alternative for visitors who want the setting without sleeping under canvas.

Late spring to early autumn is the best window for camping here. The ground around the meres and mosses can become genuinely waterlogged over winter, and access paths across reserves like Fenn's and Whixall Mosses are boardwalked precisely because the peat beneath is often saturated. Midges and other insects are also part of life near still water in high summer, so it is worth packing accordingly. Whatever the season, a fully-equipped, well-drained site with good drainage will make for a far more comfortable stay than attempting to camp rough on the mossland itself.
