Liked: The play area, my son loved this part of the camp and spent a majority of his time there. Staff were great and really accommodating. A lovely campsite.
Disliked: The long grass where we had to pitch our tent, we couldn't play our ball games and worried about how close it was to our bbq and stove even though they were on a stand(the stand is only a small one and wuite low)

Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked: The kids disco and The park. Flat pitches. Able to set up as we liked.
Disliked: The walk to the toilet block was far. The grass had not been cut for quite sometime. There was more bugs that I've ever seen in my life and got bitten to shreds. Rowdy swearing neighbours arguing and punching the car. Although the warden came promptly it didn't make any difference to their behaviour until the early hours when they passed out with alcohol. The kids were scared. Relaxing weekend .. it was not! Phone signal... non existent.

Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked: Great location, lots of space on the field to choose where you want your tent. Kids loved the play park! On-site pub with entertainment. Liverpool Leeds canal accessible from site for a walk.
Disliked: Reading the reviews prior to our stay I was wary about using the toilet/shower block. They could really do with an upgrade! No where near as good as the last few sites we have stayed at.

Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked: It wasn’t that far from where we live and as it was kids first time camping it was ideal. It’s great for a last minute local get away and the grounds are well kept.
Disliked: The toilets could do with a revamp. They’re not bad but they could definitely be better. It would be ideal if the pub/restaurant on site served food later than 6pm too or maybe offered a bit of a limited menu take out service.

Liked: What a lovely campsite this is, huge open field with water points, (would have earned the 5* if electric pitches where available.. fantastic play area for kids, onsite shop for essentials, and pub/ restaurant... shower/ toilet facilities in need of an upgrade, but didn't spoil our weekend , would definitely come again 👍
Disliked: Showers/ toilets need upgrading

Liked: Large pitches, just arrive and pitch up anywhere. Great park area. Nice walk near canal. Great use of clubhouse with entertainment great for a rainy night to let the children burn energy off
Disliked: I feel the price matches the facilities. There could be improvements but this would then increase the price. I feel for what we paid our expectations were met.
