Kim B.

Electric hardstanding pitch

Liked Lovely site with level pitches spread around a pretty small lake and countryside views over towards Oswestry.
The toilets and showers were the best I have seen in a long time, absolutely spotless and the fact that each shower was in its own room (not just a partition wall) with toilet, seat and hand sink with mirror was a luxury not seen in many touring sites.
The indoor pot washing area was so clean with even washing up liquid to hand, again not something you see everywhere.
The signage giving details of the site were professionally produced and clear.
Owners were friendly and at the end of a phone call if needed.

Local attractions

The peaty, boggy habitat of Fenn’s, Whixall & Bettisfield Mosses National Nature Reserve (25 minutes’ drive) attracts assorted wildlife, from birds of prey and waders to lizards and colourful butterflies. There are far-reaching views of the wetlands from the top of the five-metre Mammoth Tower. The Pontcysyllte Aqueduct (25 minutes) was constructed in the early 1800s to allow the Llangollen branch of the Shropshire Union Canal to cross the River Dee. You’ll need a head for heights to stroll along its path, but there are splendid views of the Welsh countryside to be had from 38 metres above ground. And you might see a barge or two navigating the aqueduct’s waters… Built by the Romans, Chester (50 minutes) is surrounded by centuries-old defensive walls with elevated walkways. The city’s ancient heritage can also be seen at the Roman Amphitheatre and at the 12th-century Agricola Tower, a stone gateway with a frescoed chapel. Shropshire's county town of Shrewsbury (35 minutes) is worth a trip too, for a stroll around the castle and abbey and a boat trip along the River Severn.
