A new £3 million caravan park has been officially opened for business in Shropshire that promises touring caravanners and motorhome owners “five-star luxury all year round”.

Ludlow Touring Park is hoping for a bumper weekend to mark its opening and has already had plenty of demand for pitches.

Operated by Morris Leisure, the park has 135 pitches, each with water, electricity, digital TV and Wi-Fi internet connections.

It also has a reception building and centrally-heated toilet facilities, as well as a fully equipped laundry.

Speaking to Shropshire Live, Edward Goddard from Morris Leisure, said: “I am absolutely delighted by the response and the number of caravanners coming to stay at Ludlow Touring Park.

“We had a trial run last weekend when 70 caravanners from across the country, who supported our planning application for the park, accepted an invitation to come and stay and we’ve had lots of ‘Thank You’ letters.”

The riverside caravan park is within walking distance of Ludlow, which Poet Laureate Sir John Betjeman once described as: “The most perfect town in England.”
