  • Peaceful four-acre Cheshire site for CAMC members only
  • A 10-minute drive to Delamere Forest; 20 minutes to Chester
  • Close to the M56, with easy access to railway station and cycle path
As handy Cheshire locations go, this one scores heaps of points. Helsby Touring Park Certified Location is a site that's set up for Caravan and Motorhome Club members only, and it's a place that you might choose for a number of reasons. Firstly, its location just a little way off the M56 makes this a handy stopover point on long cross-country journeys. And next up is the fact that it's easy to get around once you’ve parked up, as it's next to National Cycle Route 5 and there's a railway station a mile away with services to Chester, Liverpool and the north Wales coast. Those outings should keep you busy for a few days, but there’s plenty more as well – including lovely walks in Delamere Forest, animal spotting at Chester Zoo and bargain hunting at Designer Outlet Cheshire Oaks. Everything's nice and handy on the practical front too, with a large supermarket five minutes’ drive away and plenty of options for pubs, restaurants and shops in either Helsby (two minutes' drive) or Frodsham (five minutes). This is an adults-only site, so it's got a nicely peaceful vibe, and its setting in a four-acre field means there's plenty of space for everyone. A chemical disposal point is provided, and you're welcome to bring a barbecue or light a campfire. Well-behaved dogs are permitted on site.

What customers say

This is a quiet, peaceful site with electric hook-up and chemical waste disposal, offering easy access to public transport. However, multiple guests reported a significant lack of advertised facilities, particularly toilets and showers. Access issues, including locked gates and incorrect codes, were a common problem. Some found the site overpriced for its basic nature, with overgrown grass and overflowing bins contributing to a poor impression. Privacy concerns were raised due to a visible camera.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch (members only)

Liked Had electric and chemical waste.

Disliked Difficult to find. Offputting vehicle access. Sign saying unsuitable for motor vehicles. No code for gate which was locked. Phoned warden on Mobile Park nearby. Gave me a number to call in Yorkshire. Eventually got gate code. Very uneven pitch. Steep incline to and from site for long vehicles with loose gravel unable to get traction to climb.

Peaceful, had hook up. Communication very poor

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch (members only)

Liked We had the place to ourselves

Disliked Arriving to a locked gate, no contact from the number.
Then a text asking can they call back later.
At this point we was at the locked gate, asked for the combination for the padlock.

Was given the Incorrect code

Only for somebody on a neighbouring static site going above and beyond we would never of got in.

Elizabeth W.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch (members only)

Liked nothing

Disliked no reception office - lucky we met the wardens of the static van site who informed us no facilities (showers ot toilets) even though advertised and we were the second couple in a week who got told the same thing - NO FACILITIES - should be a refund as parking up in a field would have been cheaper

Recommend to friends Visit again

Very basic facility over priced. £15 to £20 would be fair.
