  • Peaceful site set over 20 acres 10 minutes' drive from Stourbridge
  • Half an hour from the West Midland Safari Park and Cadbury World
  • Family- and dog-friendly site with three large fishing lakes
Rods at the ready, folks – Wassell Grove Camping and Caravanning is rather more than a mere place to lay your head for the night… this 20-acre site also happens to be one of the West Midlands’ finer choices for a spot of fishing. Not one, not two but a generous three lakes await your bait here, with carp (often in excess of a hefty 10lb), bream and roach among the critters you may hook from the waters. Eager anglers should find plenty to keep them happy here, but there are also areas suitable for beginners… perhaps it’s time to start instructing the nippers in the fine art of fishing? And if you fancy staying here but have pretty much zero interest in fishing? That’s completely fine: non-rod-wielders are equally welcome to stay here and enjoy the peaceful woodland surrounds, perhaps using the place as a base for some lovely local hikes or family days out (Cadbury World and West Midland Safari Park, both less than half an hour away, would be good places to start on that front). Eats can be had throughout the day at the site’s own café (with both hot and cold dishes on the menu) or you can get the coals stoked on your barbecue; supermarkets are 10 minutes away in Stourbridge for supplies. Hagley, a few minutes’ drive from the site, has a couple of pubs for pints and meals out.

Michael George T. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked: Always a lovely place to stay this was out second time here and not a bad word to say
There is a ship and cafe open 8-2 everyday
Also has toilets and showers open 24 hours a day
And the farm animals are there to see too

Disliked: The road leading into the site is very bumpy loose gravel and load of holes and very uneven so take care there is no wifi but phone signal is amazing
There are no bins around for rubbish at the camping field also no lighting for the walk to the toilet at night
That's s problem can be fixed by some cheap solar lights

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked: Toilets and showers were clean.
Very friendly people, it was a bit windy and I seen another lady go and pin down someone’s tent to stop it from flying off.
Pretty views, very cute animals walking in the road so be very careful.
Food was tastey, I felt safe and secure even though there wasn’t many people around, overall I loved it and would return to the place, we also was car camping and I had the best night sleep.

Local attractions

Want to stretch your legs (perhaps after sitting by the lake for a lengthy period of time)? The friendly folk on site can point you towards the best places locally for a long walk or a short stroll: a perennial fave around these parts is the Wyre Forest National Nature Reserve – once you’ve seen it from ground level you can take a gander from on high by screaming along the ziplines at the Go Ape adventure park. If you like your outings to make you feel a bit clever, take in a bit of local history with visits to Hagley Hall (five minutes’ drive), the rock houses at Kinver Edge or the Black Country Living Museum (25 minutes). Each one aims to bring its own slice of history to life, so tour all three for an excellent insight into how people lived in the past. Learn about the natural world instead at the West Midland Safari Park (25 minutes away): there are walk-through and drive-through animal exhibits here, along with animatronic dinosaurs and theme park rides for when it’s time to take a break. Sweet-toothed guests also mustn’t miss out on a trip to the chocolate-themed extravaganza that is Cadbury World (25 minutes).
