·

Prices range from as little as £9 a night, with an average stay costing £79, so there’s something for every budget. Top picks include Pwllyn Farm Camping (117 reviews), where owls call after dark and the morning mist hangs over the fields, Hamperley Hideaways (79 reviews) with winding trails right from your pitch, and Pytingwyn Woods (70 reviews) for a spot deep in the trees.

This land of rolling hills, woods and rivers on the border with Wales is a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Pitch your tent here and you’ll soon see why. You’ll be camping in the most beautiful part of a county that’s less populated than anywhere else in the country. Unsurprisingly, it was tucked among these hills that we found some of the best camping and glamping sites in Shropshire too.
