One of our favourite 5 van certified sites around Ludlow is Farden Lane Park C&CC certified site.
The grass pitches are sloping although the site owners are friendly and helpful with wooden blocks to keep you on an even keel.
There are spectacular views across Shropshire, Worcestershire and the West Midlands from this site which is very well maintained and well worth a visit.
Ludlow is a steady ten minute drive away and the old Tittensor Quarry about a mile away has good walks and even more spectacular views from Clee Hill.

We have not had any issues booking pitches on popular sites. Last weekend we were on a site that is probably maintain better than any CAMC site and we had a fully serviced pitch with water connections. There were more than 20 pitches available over the weekend.

I had to look really hard for a site in north Wales for early September. Both clubs were booked, well at least preventing a 14 night stay across weekends. I found one on Anglesey, great for airspotters as it was right at the end of RAF Valley runway. Having spent a night in a cabin at the end of the runway at Plattsburgh SAC base in 1985 I found out why it was available. You cannot believe how noisy F111 Aardvarks and their accompanying tankers were.
In the end we found a small private site one akin to a CL and with a pub nearby, and only short walk to Caernarfon. I used Pitch up as the filter options are good and availability comes up quickly.
We have a site sorted for early June, so will shortly be looking for something around late September/early October once we know our daughters university and work commitments, as well as granddaughters decision on what she plans to do post GCSE. Hopefully 2022 will be more straightforward regards planning. But I have been saying that since........

I’d second that and there’s adjacent field areas to walk the dog(s) or even just to walk up the hill and take in the view from the seat.

I hitched up our van a couple of weeks ago just to check I could remember how to do it, drive around the block, as we'd changed cars and practice reversing (still hate it) and forgot to attach my mirrors....
Have now written a 'Don't forget' list...

Hoping you find your own method for doing this and not forget anything .. Good Luck
I’ve every intention before our next trip in 4 weeks to make a list of things to do when hitching to go and all the things to take to the storage, such as the Alko wheel lock key, the cordless for the steadies both I forgot to take to go and hitch up, my wife went home for them and I stayed to do other bits, she came back without finding the Alko lock keys because they were in the boot of the car when we got there, so I’m making 2 lists and then laminating them, first list for getting away from storage and 2nd a list of to do things when packing up, things like forgetting to turn the tap to dump the hot water tank, it’s weird the things that have slipped from memory so time for new lists.

So I'm not the only one, mines in front locker 11 years old and like yours not cracked , or perished or used.
Now what happened to the 5 year recommendation

Mines 4.5 year old Hankook kept in the front locker. Twice a year it gets hoisted out and sprayed with Autoglym tyre dressing, or Armourall whichever comes to hand first. I’ve just changed the two running tyres to Hankook but will keep the spare to 7 years.
