About Greenway Touring and Glamping Park

This is a quiet and peaceful site for adults only set in the rolling Corvedale Hills, ideal for a couples' getaway and ideal for relaxing and reconnecting as you watch buzzards and red kites fly overhead. It is an ideal base if you want to explore and discover the unspoilt Shropshire Hills and quaint historic market towns This gently sloping touring and glamping site welcomes caravans, motorhomes, trailer tents as well as tents and roof tents. Hardstanding and grass pitches are available all with views over the Corvedale Hills and surrounding countryside which provide a lovely backdrop. An ideal spot to enjoy a beautiful sunset before looking up to the starry skies. Hardstanding pitches include electric, a tap and own grey water waste connections. The grass pitches are available with or without electric hook up. Alternatively, stay in one of the standard glamping pods. The pods are equipped with a 4ft double bed, heater, kettle, plates and crockery for two people. Bedding is not provided. Outside there is a chimenea and bistro set for alfresco dining or just sitting by a fire. Or stay in one of the larger Premier glamping pods equipped with a double bed, a breakfast bar and bar stools, fridge, heater and a kettle. Bedding is not provided. Outside there is a chimenea and bistro set, perfect for al fresco dining in the evenings or a fire for warmth or just sitting and having a chat. There are plenty of mature trees and some not-so-old trees around the site providing an element of privacy to the pitches and glamping pods, a haven for birds. Leave the stress and strains of family life and work behind you. The park's location makes it an ideal base for visiting the market towns of Ludlow, Church Stretton, Much Wenlock, Ironbridge, Clun and Bridgnorth. For a bigger town, Shrewsbury and Telford aren't far either. There is plenty to see, do, discover, taste and explore in the area as the site is an ideal base for sight seeing, walking or cycling. There is a small selection of herbs from which guests are free to pick a few leaves or sprigs. You're welcome to bring your own BBQ as long as it's kept off the ground. Ask for a slab and hot pot stand if cooking alfresco and please check with the site before getting a fire going in your fire pit. Chimeneas are available to hire. There is a small stock of heat logs and charcoal for the pod chimeneas and smaller ones that can be lent to the touring pitches. There is also a firestorm heater that can be hired out, and there is a small stock of wood pellets for this. Subject to ground conditions parking is generally next to your pitch or pod Dogs are welcome on the site but must be kept on a lead and owners must clear up after them. Dogs are also welcome in two of the standard pods. Please note, that for stays over 7 days, the site requests that a tent be moved within the same pitch boundaries to help preserve the grass.

Greenway Touring and Glamping Park is open from 22/03 to 30/10 in 2024 and from 01/04 to 18/10 in 2025.

A note from the site themselves...

We - Jane and Brian - aim to provide you with a safe quiet, friendly, child free environment so you can relax and unwind leaving the stress of work and family life behind.

Whilst we are a rural site (set in the rolling Corvedale Hills) there is plenty to do and see, explore and discover should you choose to explore the hidden gems of south Shropshire there is a train station in Craven Arms a five minute drive away.

We aim to encourage wildlife by providing "wild" areas on the site and have plenty of mature trees for the birds. We encourage our guests to help us care for our environment / planet by providing them with bins to recycle their glass, tins, plastics, paper, cardboard and food waste.

VW-Type Campervan - Non-Electric Grass PitchesAug 2024

We were very impressed with this site. On our arrival the site owner was very friendly and helpful. We were able to choose where to park our campervan, and found a lovely little secluded alcove. We didn't use the showers, but found the toilets to be clean and well maintained.

Site's response

Thank you for this nice review. We are a small rural adults-only site set in the rolling Corvedale Hills - being adults-only, guests have a chance to relax and unwind away from the stress and strain of family life and work. We try to give guests a choice of pitches (although on a really busy weekend this is not always possible) so that they can pitch up at an angle to suit them, the gentle slope of the site, amount of shade required (if the sun puts in an appearance) and the views. Thank you again.

Peaceful rural campsite

VW-Type Campervan - Electric Grass PitchesAug 2024

Well kept site, facilities clean and well kept. Perfect site to explore nearby places but car needed as no local transport nearby.

Site's response

Thank you for your kind words about the site and facilities - we do appreciate them. We are an ideal base for exploring the beautiful Shropshire Hills. We are midway between the medieval town of Ludlow and Church Stretton, with the spectacular scenery at Carding Mill Valley and Long Mynd. Much Wenlock, Bridgnorth (Cliff railway and Severn Valley railway), Ironbridge and it's 10 museums, including Blist Hill Victorian Town, are not too far either. The larger towns of Shrewsbury and Telford are an equal distance from us. We have several castles, National Trust and English Heritage properties nearby. There are miles of walking or cycling that can be accessed from the site or just down the road. Whilst Craven Arms does have a mainline train station and buses, it is a couple of miles away so without a car, you either have to walk using public footpaths and quiet country roads (we do not advocate walking on the B4368) which takes 50 to 60 minutes or avail yourself of one of the local taxi firms who are used to dropping off and picking up from the site.
