Fully-serviced gravel touring pitch (premium, XL)

Liked Was in bay 15 and was spoilt for space!

What a lovely site.
Arrived mid week and grew busier as weekend arrived.
Across the road to the canal for a walk before ending with a pint at the Poachers. Food looked very nice but never ate ourselves.
Site has a club bar which opens at weekends. Again never tried as rather busy outside for our dog.
A small walk under the motorway was a shaded walk for our furry friend. Farmer fields either side leading to a national path walk.
Was in easy driving distance for the
Pontcysyllte Aqueduct which was a lovely walk and we ate at the Telford pub. Lovely steak pie!

People had mentioned noise from the A5 but as we come from south east London don’t bother us at all 😜

Showers and toilets were clean and tidy.

Disliked Nothing at all

Liked Friendly check in on to site. Pitches were clean upon arrival.
Good base if you like someone to just pitch and go out as quiet central to a lot of things. Pub across the road was good, nice atmosphere. Reasonably priced food / drinks.

Disliked - Someone was parked at our pitch upon arrival, which was annoying.
- Cleanliness of the toilets block was not great. When going for a shower the first afternoon there were feces in the toilets. Then going back the next morning it remained there.
- Men’s toilets were not cleaned during our visit either which was a Friday - Sunday.
- Ants were in every single toilet cubicle huddling by toilets, there was ant catchers but they was not doing anything.
- In the women’s disabled toilet myself & my daughter found the bin overflowing with sanitary items and used nappies. The smell was horrific (reception had already closed to make them aware)
- We didn’t like the fact the toilets / showers are used by people in the bar.

- Noise was quite loud from the main road.

What customers say

This immaculately kept site offers spacious, level pitches with excellent facilities, including clean showers and toilets. Staff are consistently praised for their friendliness and helpfulness. The on-site bar and proximity to local pubs and canal walks are popular. Road noise is frequently mentioned but often described as not overly disruptive, though light sleepers may wish to consider earplugs.

Liked Location - great location, 2 min walk from Llangollen Canal, Chirk Aqueduct. Short drive to Chirk castle and Pontcysyllte Aqueduct

Friendly and responsive - lovely staff, friendly. I called ahead as we were arriving after 6pm & Mandy was super helpful checking us in.

Pitches - spacious gravel pitches, pretty flat with EHU and water. It was really hot on arrival but were able to switch to shaded pitch, more comfy for dog

Cleanliness - bin store was clean as were bathroom. Bathroom area needs a little TLC but on the whole were clean

Facilities - onsite bar, laundry and washing up area. Spacious showers with accessible shower cubicle.

Wifi - good

Disliked Generally not a lot to dislike but some points to consider -

Dusty - it got a little dusty when a car drove by our pitch and lifts the dust

*Noise - lots of people mentioned noise in previous reviews. You can hear traffic and it was busier on Friday ( we arrived) and quieter on Saturday. It didn’t bother us and we both slept well in our campervan.

Showers - not all cubicles had hooks, i took my own to hang over the door. The shower head need replacing

Liked When entering the site, we were very impressed with the landscape. Very clean and tidy.
When booking in the girl in reception was very pleasant and helpful, explained which pitch we were on. It was good to have electric, water and grey waste on our pitch
Toilets and showers were always very clean.
Free WiFi was great to have.
Great to have Dobbies garden centre and shops, also The Poachers pub within walking distance.

Disliked Road noise was quite intrusive but we had seen reviews so expected it.
The pitches seemed quite close to one another.
Only 3 ladies showers, no hooks to hang clothes etc on in 2 of them so articles got wet.

Local attractions

Longing for the outdoor life? Rafters can hire a craft and splash their way down the rapids at Llangollen (15 minutes' drive), a pretty village in the foothills of the Berwyn Mountains. Those with courage left to spare can abseil, walk through gorges or clamber over rocks at the place's couple of outdoor activity centres; there's also scope for more relaxing rides aboard a volunteer-run heritage railway and horse-drawn jaunts in a restored barge. The ancient town of Chester (30 minutes) is also close if you're up for a change of scene – with museums, Roman remains and one of the finest zoos in all of England, there's a lot here to please any curious kids you've brought along. Additional hands-on activities can be sorted with a trip to Wrexham's Xplore Science Discovery Centre (15 minutes), where live science demos should put a sparkle in any budding boffin's eye. Other likeable local spots include engineering triumphs such as Chirk Aqueduct (20 minutes' walk) and Pontcysyllte Aqueduct (10 minutes' drive) or historic houses like Chirk Castle (10 minutes) and Plas Newydd (15 minutes).
