Wrekin Forest Events Camping

Liked: Fabulous site. Birdsong was out of this world. Firepit and firewood included in booking. Lovely hot shower and very clean toilets. Fantastic trees. Lovely under cover seating area. Felt very safe as a solo traveller knowing that there were staff on site 24hrs/ day. Loved the no cars on site concept. Would be great peace of mind if camping with children.

Disliked: Nothing. Exactly what I was hoping it would be.

From the manager: Hi, thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are pleased you had a good stay. We are glad that most things met your expectations, but sorry customer service did not seem to be perfect. I know you were out a lot whilst you stayed and that Mike spent a lot of the day-time talking to all our campers checking they were ok and getting more logs. I believe that after we had left one day and you needed more logs he was able to do that for you too. We always advertise as an unmanned site and are there if needed, we try not to interfere in the peace of your stay though. We very much hope you enjoyed the stay enough to visit again.
Kind regards, Judie & Anthony.

Liked: Beautiful, peaceful site with great facilities. Hot shower and flushing toilets along with compost toilet for at night. Got a lot more than we expected in the ready tent including double and 3 single inflatable beds. Camping kitchen with stove and kettle. Outdoor furniture with bbq and firepit. We all had a great time here

From the manager: Hi, thank you for taking the time to review your stay. We are pleased you enjoyed your stay and would consider a return visit. We would love to know how we did not meet your expectation regarding facilities, customer service and child friendliness.

We have a shared kitchen for all the things you might forget, flushing toilets a hot water shower and large pitches. We have a huge playground with a tree house, swing and sand pit for the children, we don't provide bats and balls anymore as we have found the disrespect level for property since covid has been such that nothing survives even 24 hrs. You have a fabulous forest school and another huge field in which to play football.

In terms of customer service, I am really sorry if we let you down in anyway. We had a crazy busy bank holiday, but on the Monday we did spend sometime with family so we were not around all day, just the morning and late afternoon rather than all day. We do say we are unmanned though.

Please let us know how we could have done better. We always want to improve.

Liked: Everything was perfect.. quite brilliantly organised site.
Comfort was just that cosy and comfortable and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay.
It was lovely to be off grid and be in this beautiful natural space with ease and comfort.
I found myself wishing my children were younger (they are both adults now!) so they could join the Forest school because that looks brilliant!
The shower is great too!
Thanks so much Judie !

Disliked: Seeing Judie (who has created such a great space for others to enjoy) having to sort campers rubbish!!!
People who visit really should take responsibility for their own waste / recycling… the bins are very clearly labelled!

PLEASE EVERYONE if you visit please be responsible for disposing of waste properly 🙏

From the manager: Claire, thank you for your lovely review and your considerate response regarding recycling. It was a pleasure having you to stay and we would be delighted to see you again. Next time you come we will do archery and air rifle shooting with you...Forest School is not just for the kids 🤣
Thank you,
Judie & Anthony

Liked: What a hidden gem they have here. Very basic anemities but we didn't mind. The rental tent suited us just fine and we're greatful to have beds and basic equipment included. Set up right in the forest which felt so magical, firepit also included made the nights so memorable too. The real star of the show was forest school (tickets booked separately) but wow what an amazing experience for me and my children. Hoping to come back next year and try out one of the huts!

Disliked: Only two flushing toilets so just a bit of a queue in the mornings!

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you so much for your lovely review. You would be very welcome back anytime and we are so pleased you had a fab time.

Lets hope the water table drops enough to get our compost toilets back on line again for next year and that might help the queue.

See you soon.
Judie & Anthony

Liked: We loved the Shepherds hut and the back to basics simplicity of it, it was wonderful just being in the forest. The site has everything you could need, there's even flushing loos as well as composting toilets, we loved our stay sharing bread with the pheasant's that wandered out of the forest.
The actual forest school was the biggest I have ever seen and superbly run, my two tried archery and whittled some wood into dream catchers, everyone had a wonderful time, thoroughly recommend! if you want all inclusive and maid service its probably not for you! Judie and Anthony were wonderful hosts nothing was too much trouble.

Disliked: The fact that some people steal crockery and pans that are supplied in good faith for all to use and make your holidays more enjoyable, together with trugs of logs for their fire pits that are only a fiver to start with, with all wood cut personally by Anthony. Sometimes people disgust me.

From the manager: Hi, thank you for your lovely review. We really appreciate you taking the time to give us feedback. Our resident pheasant has become rather friendly and cheeky!

Thank you for the comment on logs...£20 worth of logs went missing that weekend, sad that people don't appreciate the work that goes in to getting them in the first place. Same really with kitchen bits.

We really hope you visit again.
