Shropshire is one of England’s most peaceful and picturesque counties — a place of rolling hills, historic market towns, and timeless countryside. Tucked along the Welsh border, it’s perfect for caravan holidays that focus on walking, heritage, and natural beauty. With fewer crowds and plenty of space to unwind, Shropshire is a favourite for those seeking a proper countryside escape.
Caravan parks here are surrounded by nature, offering access to trails through the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, canal walks, and scenic drives. You’ll find charming towns like Ludlow, Shrewsbury, and Bridgnorth, full of black-and-white buildings, great local food, and welcoming pubs. History lovers can explore castles, Iron Age hill forts, and industrial heritage sites, while walkers can head to The Long Mynd or Stiperstones for panoramic views and peace.
If you’re after space to breathe, timeless landscapes, and a slower pace, Shropshire is your kind of county.
