  • Dog-friendly shepherd’s hut on a farm 10 minutes’ drive from Knutsford
  • Jodrell Bank UNESCO site 15 minutes’ drive and Chester Zoo 45 minutes
  • Well-equipped kitchen and woodburner; pubs and a shop 15 minutes’ walk
Found on a Cheshire sheep farm 10 minutes’ drive from the buzzy little town of Knutsford, Greenfields Campsite is a top choice for anyone wanting to combine a cosy holiday in a wooden shepherd’s hut with views over the surrounding farmland. Prettily done up with a rural theme, the hut has a well-equipped kitchen (all the basics and more are there), bunk beds for sleeping and a bathroom with shower. Outside there’s covered decking for chilling, watching the sheep (and lambs in spring) in neighbouring fields and admiring the sunset on clear days. The village of Lower Peover (two minutes’ drive/15 minutes’ walk) has a handy shop and two pubs serving excellent food and beers. You can also source picnic treats from the handy village shop in Goostrey (10 minutes). Knutsford is the spot for nosing around trendy boutiques, and it’s got more than its fair share of pubs and cafés if you fancy a night out. Dogs are permitted – in fact, they get their own welcome pack of treats – while kids get complimentary marshmallows to roast over the campfire (logs and firelighters are available to buy on site).

What customers say

This is a friendly, family-run site with spacious pitches and a large central play area for children. Guests consistently praise the excellent, clean, and quirky facilities, including fire pits at each pitch. The welcoming owners, complimentary marshmallows, and proximity to local pubs are frequently highlighted positives. Some guests note distant motorway noise, and a few suggest a need for more toilet and shower facilities during busy periods.

Local attractions

Looking for something different to do? Journey up a hydraulic lift between the River Weaver and the Trent and Mersey Canal at the Anderton Boat Lift Visitor Centre (20 minutes’ drive), or get up close to the star-gazing Lovell Radio Telescope and enjoy 4D films on the universe in the planetarium at Jodrell Bank Centre for Engagement (15 minutes). A 40-minute drive takes you to the walled city of Chester, where you can beat the bookies at a race meeting, explore the Gothic-era cathedral and discover The Rows, half-timbered buildings dating from Tudor times. You might also like to treat the offspring to a day at the zoo (45 minutes), where there are rare rhinos and sun bears to see. You can all test your sense of direction on the orienteering courses in Marbury Country Park (20 minutes), or walk any accompanying dogs through the avenue of ancient lime trees. If you have the odd rainy day to contend with, resort to the indoor swimming pool at Brio Leisure Northwich Memorial Court (15 minutes).
