A note from the site themselves...

When Rog and Lin created Willenhall Way, as seasonal caravanners themselves, they knew above anything else, they wanted much more space and privacy between pitches. All the pitches are exceptionally spacious.

The park has been built as a legacy to their wonderful Willenhall herd of dairy cows, who used to all spend their younger days, chilling and relaxing on the two fields that make up the park.

They have ploughed in so much passion, to create a total escape from it all park.

Large Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent PitchesAug 2023

This campsite is quiet, relaxing and extremely welcoming. There is plenty of space for children to play and there's also a lovely play area with items to encourage imaginative play. The facilities were spotless and warm - even my children had a shower! The ice cream on site was a lovely bonus. The site felt very safe for our family. It was our first time camping and we were made to feel very welcome. Other campers we're really friendly and ready to help. Ellesmere was a lovely trip out with kids. Would recommend.

Awesome site!

VW-Type Campervan - Optional Electric Hardstanding PitchMay 2023

I'm a novice campervan owner and had my first proper stay in my new van at Willenhall last week, accompanied by two of my more seasoned friends :-) The site is just fabulous. Spacious, extremely well kept, plenty of room, and the facilities were brand new and spotless. According to my friends I've been totally spoilt and nowhere else will match up! We had the pleasure of meeting Lin (owner/host) in the morning and she couldn't have been friendlier or more welcoming. Our only regret is that we couldn't hang around longer for the ice cream she mentioned ;-) We had a very nice evening meal in the local pub which was about 15 -20 mins stroll down the road. Lovely beer garden too if the weather is nice. We'll definitely be back. Thank you Lin and Rog.

Sprinter-Type Campervan - Optional Electric Hardstanding PitchMar 2023

The hosts were so friendly and lovely. The toilets were spotless (and I mean spotless!) The shower was wicked, I really didn't want to get out of it. There was loads of room in the toilet and shower cubicles. I would definitely go back there again.
