Looking for a fantastic spot to pitch up your campervan for the night then look no further. With nearly 100 acres of beautiful land, you're sure to find a stunning spot to call your own. With only the stars and the sheep to keep you company, we guarantee you'll have a peaceful holiday in the hills of Shropshire. 

Whilst we think that these pitches are fantastic and offer peace and quiet in remote locations, they do not offer any facilities. For those looking for a little more comfort or conventional camping, these may not be your first choice.

Please bring your own portable camping toilet and remove waste responsibly.

Campervan Pitch

Here, at Hamperley Hideaways we’ve created a space just for you, with our Wild Camping, you are not booking your own camping pitch, you are booking the whole field to yourselves. So, no worrying about the neighbours being too loud - with no one else around in sight nor sound, this area of outstanding natural beauty is all yours to enjoy. And with our contact-free check-in, you can spend the whole trip in peace and quiet. 

With 10 individual camping spots dotted across our farm, there are plenty of choices to suit everyone. Each pitch is set up with a picnic table, fire pit and compost toilet. So all you need to do is pick your favourite spot and bring your tent!

Please, note that whilst we think these spots are fantastic, they may not be to everyone's tastes or requirements. There is no running water, electric or flush-able toilets - if you want a little more comfort during your break we recommend having a look at our Glamping Spaces

Wild Camping

Handmade using an old trailer as a base and salvaged materials from the Farm, the Hut couples a charming interior with an authentic feel. Fitted with just the basics of fire, bed and blankets, The Hut has all you need for your back-to-basic retreat in the hills.

Set alone in a ten-acre field of a small sheep farm, this is a truly remote location. With no one else around to share the panoramic views of the Shropshire countryside, apart from birds and bees-  It's your own private escape.

This cosy, rustic hut is the perfect way to get back to basics. With its own double bed, small kitchenette and wood-burning fire the Hut is the ideal space to get away from the modern world and reclaim the wild in you.  Small, but not confined, the Hut is ideal for cosying up at any time of year.

Because of the remote location of The Hut, and its simple facilities the Hut does not include:

Running Water  (Bottled drinking water is included)

Flushing Toilet (Compost Toilet on site)

On-site parking (short walk through a field)

We believe that this really adds to the authenticity and experience of a stay aimed to get people back into nature and away from modern life. However, we know this isn't for everyone and don't want to misrepresent ourselves -  If you require a little more comfort in your stay please email to enquire about our holiday barns.

Grass Camping Pitch

Alwyn and Olive began the family business in Abermule as a Garage serving fuel, repairing vehicles and buying and selling cars. When the property behind the Garage became available they bought their first Park and as it was a ‘Smithy’ they naturally named it Smithy Park. Lifestyles changed, the garage was sold and Westbrook Farm was purchased whilst retaining Smithy Park. Westbrook Farm had access to ½ mile of fishing on the River Teme and in due course fishermen requested caravan and camping pitches alongside so that they could stay for longer, and so The Bestparks Family evolved along with two young boys, Glenn and Wayne.

Smithy is a special place where the River Mule flows into the River Severn, and the Montgomery Canal runs alongside. Mature trees and shrubs give the park a garden like setting along with peace and tranquility. The Park has a friendly, family feel, and is happy to nestle unobtrusively tucked away from the Village at Abermule and yet is only a minutes walk from the local Inns and shop.

An on site Park Warden helps with the day to day running as well as the ground maintenance. Fully heated facilities are available for caravan and camping customers along with a small children’s play area. Holiday Home owners just allow themselves to be enfolded in this blissful park in Mid Wales.
