The Red Lion Riverside Inn & Caravan and Camping Park is nestling on the banks of the River Severn. Our own traditional Country Inn serves a wide range of hot and cold meals, or you can just enjoy a simple drink alongside the river. Remember, the park is open during the winter, subject to the weather. The Inn is open all through the year for a drink or meal.

My partner and I stayed at the Riverside campsite last week and were immedietly dissapointed to find the campsite is not 'nestled on the banks of the River Severn' as is described on the campsite website.

The river is on the other side of a road, hidden by trees and bushes- hardly 'nestling' really.

We then found the owners, especially the lady to be so rude and short with us it was actually quite shocking. We politely asked if, as the site wasn't that full and our tent was only small, if we could situate ourselves nearer to the bushes on the edge, we were then what I can only describe as being shouted at by the woman owner saying; "Absolutly not. No way. The outside is reserved for people wanting the electric hook ups. No chance".
Ok, ok we both thought, a simple; "I'm afraid that may not be possible, sorry" would have done!

As it transpired, we stayed there for two nights (we did pay for three nights, but found the atmosphere to be not that friendly so left early) and the site was never full with loads of free space around the edges we could have snuggled our 3 man tent into.
Come on guys- lighten up and treat your paying guests with more respect and give us a smile at least!
The final straw came when we were rudely waved away from a parking space by the woman owenr one moring when we were going to use the shower blocks- a face as miserable as thinder, she wagged a finger at us and told us to "move"! Again, we were so shocked at her rudeness is was getting funny by this time.

We tried a meal in the pub they own next to the camping, and we had to complain as we had scampi and chips, and were only given a measely 5 pieces of small scampi. The man owners reply was a curt; "We've always sold it with that many, that's the way it is."

It's a shame the owners seem to have such a chip on their shoulders as the campsite itself is fine- flat pitches and shower and toilet blocks. Again though, they shouldn't be advertising it as sitting on the banks of a river, because it certainly is not! You can't even see the river from the field.

A very dissapointing experience means we will not be reccomending this site to any of our camper friends for sure!
