  • Peaceful and secluded farm site on the banks of the River Severn
  • Private stretch of river and pond available for fishing
  • Breakfasts and café on site; firepit hire available
What a lot there is to do around this peaceful and secluded Mid Wales site a short hop from the Wales/England border. And you may well like to start with some fishing right there on Brook House Farm Camping and Caravan Site’s own stretch of the River Severn – in a lush countryside setting between Welshpool and Shropshire’s county town Shrewsbury. You may be meandering between countries on day trips but one constant in all this is the pristine views on site, with the park set in pretty countryside on the banks of the River Severn with buzzards and the occasional red kite soaring overhead. A spotlessly clean shower block is to hand for guests' use, along with a washing-up area on site. The site is based in the grounds of the Brook House Farm B&B, where you can have breakfast. Or tuck into nosh at the café, use the squeaky clean on-site kitchen, or hire a firepit to sizzle supper under the stars.

What customers say

Brook House Farm is a beautiful, well-kept campsite by the River Severn. Guests rave about the friendly, attentive owners, clean restrooms, and the cafe/bar serving tasty food. The peaceful vibe & scenic views are big draws for relaxation. Minor mentions of limited amenities during busy times don't detract from overwhelmingly positive stays; many plan to return.

Camping pod (four person, no pets)

Liked Camping pod was clean and tidy on arrival.

Disliked We booked a little last minute break away for the bank holiday and on arrival the host mentioned they recently had a fire so there was no shower block available and over 100 people would share I shower cubicle. The host mentioned it happened a few days ago but we found out it was at the start of August! Wouldn’t book again!

From the manager: Thank you for your review.Unfortunately our shower block went up in flames few days prior.I tried to contact everyone regarding this.Has it was bank holiday I only managed to get one shower cubicle and the holiday let shower was available from Sunday.5 portable toilets.The company cleaned them Friday and Sunday for us.
I also have offered everyone a free stay when our new block is up and running.
It is already up to having its roof on.
Has I stated to everyone it was beyond my control,and has you can see with the other reviews people wanted to come instead of cancelling there stay which I would of refunded.Sorry once again.

Beth W.

The Mount lodge (no pets)

Liked The lodge was a lot more spacious than expected, with comfy beds and a futon. Great to have a decent size fridge and some kitchen amenities.

The site was lovely and peaceful, apart from our kids :) great field for them to play and really liked the potting shed and beer garden where we enjoyed a breakfast roll and afternoon drink.

Had to use portaloos and portashower due to the new ones being built but this was fine with us and they were always topped up with toilet roll and sanitizer.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite (adults only)

Liked Place was lovely! Owner welcoming after the chaos on the day we arrived Also lovely on site pub very reasonable. Unable to get food the day we arrive due to a fire 2 days before. So went to the local pub which was a 10minute walk. Food was delicious.

Disliked When we arrived nobody was there. So tried phoning and tried knocking doors but still nothing for15 minutes. Just a sign saying closed. Managed to flag someone down who was guest, Then to be informed there had been a fire in the shower block 2 days ago . No staff available to talk to us.shortly after the owner came over and said if we wanted to go home we would get a refund or stay and get another free stay . Which by the way never got to re book. So never got that ! Also there was an incident on the second night which the owners did try to resolve as quickly has they could. Maybe review same sex groups .

From the manager: We would like to apologise for this,unfortunately our shower block went up in flames and our electric metre blew up.We had electricians working to get all our power resumed.We were on the property but not in cafe due to no electric in there.
Our new block is well on its way and I offered you a free night when all sorted.Which we will honour.If you just call us and we can sort that for you.
Like this weekend I phoned all customers and told them the situation and offered them a free night when the new block is finished.
Very trying time but everyone seems happy this weekend.

Great first time camping with the kids l!

Local attractions

Lace up your walking boots: with Brook House Farm midway between Welshpool and Shropshire’s county town Shrewsbury, it’s a shrewd place to stop to see the Shropshire Hills and Mid Wales on an active family hol. Shropshire has over 3500 miles’ worth of right of way paths for longer distance hikes and shorter strolls; the 210-mile Severn Way passes along nearby for taking a hike along it on a day trip or stopping off at Brook Farm if you’re attempting it all. The Offa’s Dyke Path can be accessed from here too: the very helpful Brook House Farm owners can arrange a shuttle bus for you to join the trail if you let them know in advance. For less tired feet, a plethora of outdoor pursuits within easy reach of the farm includes horse riding, mountain biking and golf; paragliding and lessons are available at nearby Rodney’s Pillar and the Long Mynd. Land some slippery characters by casting off on the River Severn: Brook House’s own stretch of river yields barbel into double figures, but there are shoals of other nearby spots to land salmon, trout and grayling. There are some commercial fisheries within 20 minutes’ drive to thrash things out at too, such as Weston Pool near Oswestry. Once you’ve cleaned off your catch and soothed your sore feet, jump into the car for some historical highlights: the medieval fortress Powis Castle with its famous French and Italian garden; Shrewsbury Castle with the Shropshire Regimental Museum Trust; the Red Castle and Grotto Hill of the 18th-century Hawkstone Historic Park & Follies, and the town of Shrewsbury, with over 600 listed buildings.
