About Colemere Caravan Park

This small, tranquil site is set on five acres of grassed land, brushing the edge of a tranquil lake. Welcoming adults only, it is ideal for those looking to escape the crowds and enjoy the peace and quiet of the countryside. The site offers a total of 35 grass pitches, each allowing up to two guests. Tents, trailer tents, caravans, campervans and motorhomes are all welcome, with nine of the 8m x 4m pitches coming with the added benefit of a 16 amp electric hook up. For those who prefer to go hassle-free and don't fancy bringing the tent, the site also has a selection of couple friendly glamping options on offer. Inside the two camping pods and the shepherd's hut, you'll be treated to a cosy double bed, heating, double glazing and electric. For relaxing nights in, there is a TV and you will also have tea and coffee making facilities for your morning brew. Outside you will have a private veranda area with seating, and the hut even enjoys scenic lakeside views. Please note, bedding is not provided. The Kingfisher yurt is also perfect for two, kitted out with all of the luxuries of a hotel room. You will have a solid oak frame bed, bedding, bean bags, a TV, heating, tea and coffee making facilities, plus a dining table and chairs. The Shropshire Union Canal and the wildlife and birdlife-packed Wood Lane Nature Reserve are also within a 15 minute walk! Evenings can also be spent cooking up a BBQ or toasting marshmallows over one of the fire pits to hire onsite. Please note, BBQs must be raised from the ground and only fire pits from the site are able to be used. Four-legged friends are also welcome to join you for your stay, with up to two allowed per pitch and in the pods.

Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent PitchesAug 2023

My partner and I camped here when visiting family. We loved it so much, we plan to stay here every time now. The adult only campsite, peaceful and quiet. Stunning views of nature, with beautiful lake views on the doorstep of the campsite. The owners were very helpful in welcoming us and the facilities were the cleanest I have ever experienced at a campsite!

Highly recommended

Twin Axle Caravan - Electric Grass PitchesApr 2024

We had a short break in this beautiful site. The peaceful nature of the site was so tranquil and just want we wanted. We had limited O2 phone signal but for us it was perfect to be away from the busy life we wanted peace from. We would definitely be returning there again.
