  • Spacious pitches on a Shropshire farm a 15-minute drive from Oswestry
  • Shropshire Sculpture Park five minutes’ drive; Telford 40 minutes
  • Family- and dog-friendly site; pub and buses within a 20-minute walk
In rural Shropshire, 15 minutes’ drive from Oswestry, Red Oak Camping is a welcoming site on a family-run working cattle farm; the presence of resident animals at some sites often means that you can’t bring dogs, but happily that is not the case here, where your well-behaved four-legged companion will be a welcome guest (though bear in mind that there is an extra charge). There are assorted accommodation options here, and what unifies them all is the feeling of spaciousness and the utterly peaceful vibe – give or take the occasional lowing from the cows… Guests also benefit from such amenities as a toilet and shower block, an outdoor washing-up area and ice-pack freezing, as well as recycling points, chemical waste disposal and charging facilities for electric cars. Mind you, you might not need to recharge your car until the day you leave, since it only takes 20 minutes on foot to reach the village of West Felton, from where a bus service links to places such as Oswestry, Shrewsbury (25 minutes) and Telford (40 minutes). West Felton also has a pub serving food – that’s if you don’t fancy firing up the barbecue for dinner – and there’s another pub within a half-hour walk (or five minutes’ drive), on the Montgomery Canal, which runs through Shropshire and Powys and is a pretty spot for a post-lunch walk.

What customers say

Top-rated, tranquil park with super-friendly, helpful owners. Immaculately clean facilities, hot showers, great kitchens. Spacious, tidy pitches with lovely views. Perfect for walks/cycling, near a pub. Developing but excellent, with ongoing improvements. Fab family-run spot.

Fully-serviced grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked One of the nicest campsites we have been to. Lovely welcome from the owner and couldn't do enough for you. Flat pitches for the tents water and electric hook ups adjacent. The amenities are perfectly cleaned every day, great showers and oven, fridge and microwave available for whoever may need one.
Amazing sunset views of an evening with footpaths available for canal walks and only 20mins walk to nearest pubs.
Very peaceful site, but also acres of space for kids to play and explore.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked What a lovely few days we have had. Perfect peaceful campsite with lovely views and absolutely brilliant facilities. Showers and toilets were immaculate. There is a full kitchen to use that's also immaculate. A big thankyou to Peter who could not do more for his guests. This site really is a gem and we will definitely be returning.

Disliked Absolutely nothing, not even a noisy neighbour.

Local attractions

Shropshire Sculpture Park (five minutes’ drive) exhibits more than 100 artworks on the lush grounds of the British Ironwork Centre. They include the 13-foot Spoon Gorilla (made out of – you guessed it: spoons; upwards of 40,000 of them, donated by people all around the world) and a sculpture honouring police dogs. Dating from the 11th century, moated Whittington Castle (10 minutes) occupies a 12-acre site that is home to ducks, swans and other wildlife. Among the events organised at the castle are alfresco theatre performances, living history weekends and craft fairs. A northbound drive along the A5 takes you past the early 19th-century Chirk Aqueduct (25 minutes), whose arches stretch across the border between England and Wales, and all the way to Chirk Castle (half an hour). This National Trust property is home to a collection of decorative arts that includes a spectacular Japanese chest with mother-of-pearl details.
