  • Dog-friendly site on 15 acres of Onny Valley countryside
  • River for pond dipping, paddling and fishing
  • Popular pub serving food directly accessible from the site
Pooh! Pooh Sticks, that is – if your kids have never played it, a stay at The Green Caravan Park is the place to teach them the art. A river – the small and shallow River East Onny – runs through it for paddling, pond dipping, the aforementioned Pooh Sticks and fishing: pick up a cheap net at the site shop and keep your little shrimps entertained for hours for mere pennies. Once they’re dried off, there’s on-land nature spotting too, at the area set aside as a nature wilderness, a play area and space galore for bike riding or outdoor games. The Green Caravan Park has several riverside pitches, with others on the park island, in the two dingles, on The Plateau, in the play area field or in a five-acre meadow; electric pitches are in a separate field with both riverside and hardstanding spots. The park covers 15 acres of Onny Valley countryside in a National Landscape between the Long Mynd and Stiperstones Hills: it’s no wonder it’s been called ‘a little gem’ by previous happy campers. Dogs can stretch their paws at the dog walk and exercise area on site (please keep dogs on leads in other areas of the park and clear up after them in all areas). Food is well covered too: the popular family-friendly Inn on the Green serves home-cooked food and is directly accessible from the park (pre-booking comes highly recommended), and there are several country inns in the local area – steak and ale pies at The Crown get particular thumbs up.

What customers say

This well-maintained campsite offers spacious, flat pitches with a beautiful riverside setting, ideal for families and dog owners. Visitors consistently praise the friendly and welcoming staff, clean facilities, and the convenient proximity of a pub and village shop. The stream is a highlight for children.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked Rachel and John were very welcoming & helpful.
Toilets and showers were kept very clean, with plenty of steaming hot water!
The site had ample level ground so no problem with finding a flat bit.
A great location - just listened to the stream babbling and watched the birds over coffee in the mornings - nice. Also, it was lovely and quiet.

From the manager: Many thanks for your review, it's always wonderful to receive such lovely feedback. We very much look forward to you staying with us again one day.

Carla J.

Electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked Friendly owners, clean and tidy site, level pitch beside river, dog off lead area, quiet location and site. Lots of different areas to choose from for pitching tent, lots of hookups.

Disliked Pub next door doesn't open on Mondays and The Crown in Wentnor also wasn't serving food that Monday

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Many thanks for your review Carla, we're thrilled you had an enjoyable stay & would consider recommending us to your friends. Monday is the only day the 'Inn on The Green' is closed but here's hoping that the 'Crown' will be soon serving on a Monday. We look forward to seeing you both again soon.

All round good thanks

Local attractions

Many visitors to The Green Caravan Park come for Shropshire strolls around the calm country lanes and hills, along the Offa’s Dyke path or from nearby village Wentnor. The park is between the Stiperstone Hills and the Long Mynd, which make up the biggest area of heathland in the Shropshire hills: walk the five and a half miles of the Stiperstone Ridge from the Knolls car park for magnificent views towards the Long Mynd. Folk flock to the area for the birdwatching too: keep an eye out for red kites, plovers and buzzards around the Stiperstones, which is a national nature reserve. This is also castle country: Stokesay, Powis, Montgomery, Clun and Ludlow castles are all within easy driving distance. Have a wander around the festival and foodie town of Ludlow after seeing the castle or see the castle, abbey and over 660 listed buildings of medieval town Shrewsbury, both half an hour away. Industrialists will be kept busy at nearby Snailbeach Lead Mine and historic Ironbridge and the Ironbridge Gorge Museums about 15 miles from Shrewsbury: this World Heritage Site site should keep even the urchins happy, especially going back in time to Blists Hill Victorian Town or creeping down the old Tar Tunnel. Closer to your pitch but dating from further away in time, Bury Ditches Iron Age hill fort is between Clun and Bishop's Castle: go on to the latter for more walks, access to the Shropshire Way and the country’s oldest brewery, the Three Tuns. Well-behaved urchins can be rewarded at several family-friendly Shropshire attractions: if they liked Ironbridge they’ll probably be fond of the historic working farm at the Acton Scott estate, featured on the BBC’s Victorian Farm, or getting close to the natives at Telford’s Hoo Farm Animal Kingdom.
