About the site


Providing an idyllic stop off in quiet Shropshire countryside, this traditional and family run farm is home to eight hardstanding touring pitches. First established by their grandparents, the family have been Frodesley farmers for more than 120 years. Stop off to admire the dark skies here and finish the day sitting under the stars from your pitch. The touring pitches cater to campervans, caravans and motorhomes. Each provides plenty of space, measuring 7m x 5m with 16 amp electric. A well behaved dog is welcome, provided they are kept on a lead.

Booked for a one night stay between visits to NT properties. Two days before arrival we had pinpoint directions (better than the sat nav route) complete with our pitch number via email. Drove on and set up on an almost perfectly level Hardstanding pitch with hook up conveniently located. Subsequently greeted by the owner with friendly conversation and pointing out of facilities. A very quiet peaceful night, with plenty of birdsong to greet us in the morning.
