About Willenhall Way
Nestled away in the Shropshire countryside, this peaceful family and dog friendly touring and camping site is ideally located just five minutes from Ellesmere. There are non electric grass pitches for both tents and tourers. All pitches measure at least 10m x 10m and allow up to six people per pitch. With a spacious covered veranda that acts as a shared eating space as well as the kid's play area, this is a lovely spot for families to pitch up. The site also offers seasonal pitches. Boat trips on the mere, a sculpture trail to explore in the park or simply feeding the ducks all take place in this delightful little town. Shropshire Union Canal tow paths are a five-minute walk from the site and footpaths stem in five directions, varying in length from 1.5 miles to 7 miles. A maximum of two dogs are allowed per pitch for an additional cost, just please ensure they remain on the lead. There's even a dog shower available. Campfires are not permitted. BBQs are allowed only when raised off the grass.
Willenhall Way is open from 01/03 to 31/10.
