Brook House Farm Reviews

Wet weekend

Good reasonably flat pitch. Site appears to be expanding yet the shower and toilet facilities have not kept up to pace. The potting shed outside seating looked great but inside, it was a mish mash that did not really work. £8 for a tea and a pint of cider was a bit much. Peaceful on the first night but noisy neighbours in the adjacent pods spoiled that for us the following evening.

Excellent site with everything you could need

Lovely picturesque site with different areas for cabins and family tents and adult tents. Small fishing lake on the family camping field and the River Severn on the edge of the adults only camping field. Great cafe and bar area with beautiful sunny garden with seating. Excellent customer service from friendly and helpful staff who make the effort to go above and beyond. Food was great too. Excellent main shower and toilet facilities with a handy portaloo on each field to save walking to the main area. Cannot fault this site at all, just wish we had found it earlier in the year so we could have visited more!

2nd stay and will be back

This is my 2nd stay here and I took my partner for her first stay. The stay was really good and was exactly what we were looking for. The adult only field is a 'choose your own spot' field. I do think it may benefit from pitches being marked out as it all got a bit cramped, especially with a fisherman pitching his bivvy very close to us and our neighbours and proceeding to play music until late in the evening. Our stay was overshadowed by my partner falling and dislocating her shoulder on our first night, so apologies if we woke anyone in the early hours making our way to A&E, the owners were very generous and helpful in the aftermath. The site is quiet which is what we wanted, the potting shed is nice for a drink and something to eat however we were too late for pizza night by 10 minutes so unable to comment on them. They looked good though. I think the toilet/shower block may need expanding or an additional unit installing as there could be a good wait if you time it wrong. Overall, a lovely site, owners are brill and we will be back in 2025.

Fantastic venue!

Fantastic camping site, absolutely stunning views of the river Severn! We stayed for one night, the bar was well stocked and thankfully, quiet for when we were going to bed. Sadly, there was a large group who kept the music going until 2am. Wasn't bothering me and my ear plugs, but my partner had to go and speak to them. Not the campsites fault however! Would definitely visit again and would recommend!

Really nice, quiet site with good staff

This is a site that isn't too big and is pretty well run, food at the café was good and the staff were friendly and helpful. Was a pleasant experience from start to finish. Loved being there, would go again!

Two night camping stay

Came here for a 2 night stay camping. Has a nice bar on site which was lovely. Facilities were good and clean, however maybe some more facilities would be better. I also felt some facilities closer to the camping part (adult only part) would be beneficial as it was a bit of a walk to the toilet and we felt a bit out the way.

Very clean

Nicely turned out site. The facilities are great, would have loved the shop and cafe to be open later so we could have eaten, but we were offered something quick to eat when we arrived. We were put in the family site, which meant my teenagers felt they needed to be quiet much earlier because of the younger families. Very quiet.

Great in every way

Fantastic small site. It rained a lot and the grass was well drained, no muddy feet here! Lovely walk to see the river. Clean facilities. Great cakes in the cafe and friendly staff. Great family site. We'll be back!

Idyllic stay

If Carlsberg did holiday campsites, this would be it. Best holiday camp I've ever stayed at. Amenities are first class and the owners very accommodating. Great bar and garden area also, first class stay!

Stunning

First off, I have not given a 5 star rating for service or facilities, they are there but I didn't use them. From the beautifully presented farmhouse through to the Bankside camping ground, everything is 5 star. I will use again.

Beautiful campsite with bar and quiet area

The campsite is quiet and in a lovely location on the river, with different fields for adults only and family. There are brilliant facilities including a bar, a shop and café on site, which serves wood fire pizza on Fridays and afternoon tea if booked in advance. The host is lovely, is really helpful and gave great recommendations for the local area. The facilities are good, with two hot showers in large toilet cubicles, and running water throughout the site. There is access to a little facilities kitchen and was a perfect stay!

Beautiful location, quick and easy booking

Really beautiful location and easy to find. Check in was super easy and the facilities were brilliant. Will definitely book again!

Excellent place to stay

We stayed for 3 nights and didn't want to come home. Lovely looking site. The owners were friendly and welcoming, and always very busy. Great food and big selection of drinks at the site bar. Friday night pizzas the best ever. Absolutely beautiful gift shop on site, leave plenty of space in the car to bring things back with you. We met some lovely people who we hope to see again soon. We will defo be back ASAP.

Clean and friendly site

Wonderful site central to Oswestry, Welshpool and Shrewsbury. Nice clean facilities and the outdoor space was well kept. Wonderful cafe/bar on site and very welcoming owners. We liked it so much we're going back in a couple weeks time.

Thank you for you lovely review, was lovely meeting you and your family so glad you had a relaxing time.

Heaven by the River Severn

Pitched near the River Severn, the area was full of wildlife. Lovely views, tranquil and heavenly. Our experience of the owners was friendly and helpful. A very nice café and bar and the pizza on Friday night was possibly the nicest I've ever had. Although toilets and showers are few, the owners are sorting that for next season so will go again definitely.

Thank you for your lovely review. So glad you enjoyed your stay and look forward to seeing you again in the near future.

A very nice place

Friendly staff and a welcoming environment.

Outstanding

Absolutely brilliant 🤩 staff all very friendly and service good. Would go again.

Great stay

Great owners, site was lovely. Will be booking again soon. Thank you.

Pretty location

It's a beautiful spot. Really quiet and peaceful overall, the lorries using the road throughout the night were disrupting until you got used to it. Staff were helpful and very accommodating. Toilets are a walk up the hill from the tent pitches which may be an issue for smaller children.

Absolutely fab

Fabulous place, lovely owners and a great bar. Homemade cakes are to die for.

Lovely site

We had a lovely stay here. Very clean facilities, but on occasion had to queue for the toilet. Lots of space for the kids to play. The bell tent bed was really comfy with warm bedding. Needed to take inflatable beds and sleeping bags for the kids. Eye mask was essential as the bell tents are not blackout. We had a lovely time and would stay again.

Very well spaced pitches in a beautiful location

Right next to the River Severn, plenty of locations to visit. Shrewsbury only down the road. Mid Wales is only a stone's throw away. Great location to stay (as I did) if attending Rowton Castle wedding facility (saved a fortune on hotel rooms) and you can stay an extra day or two and still be in pocket. Recommend highly.

A great weekend break

What a stunning place to spend a weekend! Beautiful scenery, accommodation options, a lively accommodating bar and wonderful hosts. Couldn't recommend this place more, a hidden gem.

Chilled and relaxing

Picked this site for my first solo visit and I've really enjoyed my stay. Located behind a house, which took me by surprise, with a nice café/restaurant behind it and the campsite behind that. Advised at check in that they were busy this weekend with it being bank holiday. But it is was just about right I'd say for size of the site. I stayed on the adults only field, which was lovely and peaceful. I was a little disappointed not to get a river view pitch (maybe next time!) but had a really nice chilled and relaxing time. Fishing was slow on two sessions I did but since getting back home I've discovered it's spawning season, which will be why. I'd say they would benefit from extra showers or pot wash if I'm being picky as was often a queue for the facilities by the café/bar. Portaloos came in handy on the camping pitches. Some nice views and walks to be found and I will be back. This site is my go to now, far enough away from normality but close enough to get to for a weekend break.
