This adults-only site offers a peaceful retreat with beautiful countryside views and is just a short walk from Ellesmere town centre. Visitors consistently praise the immaculate, well-maintained facilities, particularly the modern shower rooms. Owners Robin and Jane are frequently mentioned as friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Pitches are generally spacious and level, with many enjoying the tranquil atmosphere. Minor points include occasional road noise and a desire for more recycling options.

Liked Lovely site, clean facilities.
Walking distance into Ellesmere with lots of nice walks around too.

Disliked We had to ring up for the code to get in when we got there, the reception was poor and I struggled to hear. Maybe send the code with the confirmation email?

Liked This is a lovely, tranquil site, only a twenty minute walk into Ellesmere which suited us as we were in our camper van. The grounds are well maintained and we loved the individual, spotless toilets. The owners are lovely and very helpful. Ellesmere is a picturesque little village, lots of interesting cafes, pubs and unique gift shops to mooch around as well as walking around the beautiful mere. We can’t wait to return.

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.
