Ludstone Caravan Park Certificated Location

In the historic market town of Bridgnorth (15 minutes’ drive), the Cliff Railway is a vintage funicular travelling along a steep hill; there are splendid views of the town from the top station. Take a stroll among the colourful flower beds in Bridgnorth Town Park and check out the castle remains. Spanning the River Severn since 1779, the Iron Bridge (25 minutes) was the first ever bridge built in this material. Cross it to take in splendid views of the forested gorge that surrounds it. The bridge and other local structures, such as the Coalbrookdale Museum of Iron, form a UNESCO World Heritage site. Whether your kids are into animals or medieval castles, they ought to enjoy a visit to Dudley (25 minutes), where the zoo (which is home to red pandas, wallabies and meerkats among other beasties) occupies the grounds of a ruined fortress that was destroyed during the English Civil War.
