Our Guestbook What you have to say

What a beautiful, peaceful campsite. Very quiet, with only the sounds of the birds around you. Super spacious pitches, lots of privacy, and really nice, clean sanitary facilities. The owners are very friendly and helpful.

We were able to admire birds, birds of prey, and even a big hare in full splendor here. Cycling to Tenbury was a fun challenge.

I’ve just returned from 4 nights at Birchwood camping and cannot speak highly enough of my time there.

Alison and Melvyn were great hosts, they are close by which is reassuring for any solo campers, yet not intrusive .

The pitches are well appointed, the showers and facilities spotless and there is communal use of a fridge and freezer to chill your ice blocks at no extra cost.

Wood, home made jam and local honey are available for a small fee and I can thoroughly recommend the blackcurrant jam!

The site is surrounded by fields and hedges and you can lose yourself with the bird song and the sounds of the sheep and lambs while watching the farmers in the opposing fields.

I’m going back in 2 weeks and Birchwood camping site is now my go to, when I need to unwind and reset from every day life.

Birchwood Camping is perfect if you’re looking for a peaceful time in nature away from the busyness of modern life. Mervyn and Alison have given thoughtful care to creating and maintaining this beautiful site and are most welcoming and attentive hosts.

There are a small number of spacious pitches each surrounded by wildflower meadows, or in the case of the Quarry where I stayed, trees. My pitch was the furthest from the main facilities and I luxuriated in the sense of being private and away from it all. Alison kindly came to see if I had everything I needed each day.

This was my first camping trip for several years and things like inflating the air mattress and getting it to stay up and persuading the pop up tent to pop down again and go back in its bag were challenges that I did eventually resolve but Alison assured me that if I’d needed help it would be fine for me to phone them any time.

The Quarry has its own compost loo and shower so I didn’t have to go far for that. These and the main facilities are perfectly maintained, spotless and simple. I appreciated the minimal number of notices and instructions around which added to the atmosphere of friendly trust.

I saw a Muntjac deer slip into the undergrowth, watched butterflies and insects and heard all sorts of birdsong. I had planned to visit one of the nearby towns during my two day stay but in the end didn’t want to go anywhere but just to carry on soaking up the peace.

Birchwood really is a very special place.

A peaceful and tranquil campsite. Only the sounds of the birds singing, bleeting of the sheep in the next field and the hoot of an owl.

It’s beautifully laid out with each plot having their own area surrounded by wild flowers and grasses. Campervans are at the top of the field with stunning views of the campsite one way and hills the other.

There are 2 toilet cubicles with sink and shower in each, which are kept really clean.

The washing up area has 2 sinks, a large fridge freezer, a kettle and a toaster, along with other utensils you might need. There was also washing up liquid, cloths and sponges available. There’s games available and a box full of information if you fancy a day trip out.

The hosts were so friendly and welcoming and didn’t mind at all when I disturbed them at 10pm as I’d locked myself out of the van – hopefully that won’t happen again.

I had a wonderful time and will definitely be back.

What a lovely campsite, with well spaced pitches in a lovely meadow, complete with barn owl. Melvyn and Alison were friendly hosts – they even sell home made jam. Facilities are excellent too.

This lovely campsite is full of wonderful contradictions:

– It is simple and rustic but also camping luxury (The shared kitchen area has a fridge freezer, a kettle AND a toaster. The very nice bathrooms have scented candles and large, hot showers. Fire pits on every pitch)

– It is small but spacious (with a handful of large pitches well spread out amongst the meadow flowers)

– It is grown up and serene but also caters well for children (lovely little playground, stream to paddle in and sports equipment to borrow)

– It is peaceful and secluded but full of nature noise (birdsong, baaing and bees)

And the whole site is so well maintained, clean and tidy.

Definitely worth a visit!

A gorgeous campsite set in a stunning location. The facilities were top notch and hosts very welcoming. A lovely place to recharge and enjoy the countryside, no doubt we’ll be back!

A beautiful, peaceful campsite where hearing the birds singing is pure joy, especially the barn owls calling at night time. Melvyn and Alison are friendly and helpful hosts and the facilities (toilets, showers, kitchen) are very clean and maintained to a high standard. The pitches are very generous giving space and privacy. The perfect camping spot. Definitely recommend and will stay again in the future.

A lovely peaceful and very natural campsite. The tent pitches are well spaced, so nice and private. Long grasses in-between to define them. No parking by your pitch but can do so to unload. This makes it very safe for children to run about. Lovely clean facilities. It was very quiet when we visited so can’t comment on if there’s any queueing for them or not. Good size fridge freezer for guests to use, which was very handy. Lovely to sit and listen to nothing but birds singing. Friendly and welcoming hosts

A wonderful, quiet site with spotless facilities and some really nice touches. You can tell that the hosts have put in a lot of effort to develop it. The pitches are a very good size and the bell tent is beautiful. We really enjoyed having a barbecue and sitting around the fire pit. Despite feeling disconnected from the world, it is really not a long drive from Leominster. I certainly hope to come back. Thank you!
