  • Very peaceful camp site with only red kites and rabbits around.
  • A 30-minute drive to Ludlow; 15 minutes from Tenbury Wells shops
  • Peaceful grass pitches on a hilltop site, with real-ale pubs nearby
If you’re after total peace and quiet, this could be the spot for you. Hanley Orchards is a small and friendly wild camping site in the little village of Hanley Child in Worcestershire – and well-behaved dogs are welcome too. If you potter around quietly on site, you’ll probably catch sight of the resident red kite circling overhead. With glorious views out across the Teme Valley from the hilltop camping field, you’ll really get that off-grid, alone in nature vibe (although a toilet block is part of the deal too). Out and about exploring the Teme Valley (there are routes for walkers, cyclists and drivers), you’ll be rewarded with magnificent views across to the Welsh Marches and the rugged hill of Hay Bluff. There are cute, half-timbered towns like Ludlow to explore, and an abundance of defence castles along the Welsh borderlands to investigate. Secluded Hanley Orchards may be, but it’s actually only 10 minutes’ walk from the village with its selection of excellent foodie pubs, one with a microbrewery producing Worcestershire real ales. At 15 minutes' drive, the market town of Tenbury Wells is your closest bet for shopping, with delis and fishmongers as well as a decent-sized supermarket.

Great value, peaceful site with amazing views. Loved the friendly owner, quiet vibe and space. Basic but clean facilities (shared toilet/shower, occasional hot water/availability issues). Perfect for relaxing nature breaks.

Powered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked The quiet & scenic views

Disliked Only 1 toilet that had no toilet roll for first 2 days their, the shower is in same 'shed' has toilet so if pitch was full they'd be huge ques! We had folk knicking at door when we was using toilet ... couldn't get a shower/bathe daughter 4 yrs old has shower didn't heat up water was freezing hubby mentioned it to host few times and nothing was replied 🙄 we had to rely upon baby wipes to wash our 4 year old which I felt like I was neglecting her basic needs I always book sites with showers n toilet facilities it should be stated shower is cold only & only 1 toilet ... no disabled facilities.
Sorry but I'd not return 😔 basic facilities need vast improvement

Well kept and clean

Disliked The wind
Feel it would be better if had more than one toilet as it was not that busy but at times was waiting long time for shower or toilet due to others using it.

Powered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked This was a great little site. Good location and very reasonable pricing. Great views and not far from local towns. The site is on a slope so campers and caravans with levellers should be ok. We were in a folding camper and once levelled had no problems but tents might find it a bit more awkward. Facilities are basic but cannot complain for what we paid. Owner was friendly and helpful. We will almost certainly use again.

Disliked Not much.

Liked Clean environment, beautiful views, friendly owner, laid back, not too crowded.

Disliked Only 1 facility for shower and toilet in same room, therefore there could be a queue at times. Road coming in was very uneven so not appropriate for all vehicles as my car got scraped a couple of times when going up to the site.

Local attractions

If you've brought the dog, the National Trust-owned Brockhampton (20 minutes’ drive) has wonderful walks (lovely in spring when the bluebells are out), while Witley Court and Gardens is a spectacular ruin surrounded by formal plantings and woodland paths. It’s also worth checking out Ludlow (30 minutes), with a half-timbered, medieval town centre packed by pubs and restaurants, and riverside Bewdley (25 minutes) has pretty Georgian houses, traditional pubs and arty shops overlooking the Severn. Here, you can jump on a steam train for an expedition on the Severn Valley Railway between Kidderminster and Bridgnorth. You’ve had your fun, so treat the kids to theirs. You can’t go wrong with the high wires at Go Ape Wyre Forest (20 minutes) or spending the day at West Midland Safari Park (45 minutes), spotting lions and zebras in drive-through compounds and riding coasters in the family-friendly Adventure Theme Park. Another hit with the kids might well be the annual Shelsley Walsh Hill Climb (15 minutes), if you’re here in August.
