  • Peaceful, well-maintained and family-run park in a central setting
  • Safe direct access link to the Shropshire Union Canal for strolls
  • Fish at one of the two specimen lakes for a fee; bar serving food
Cheshire countryside, anyone? In a setting that's quite rightly been pointed out as central to pretty much anywhere? Easily sorted when pitching up at Sunny Side Touring Park. Set in green countryside with loads of open space, this site is central indeed: it's about 20 minutes by car to the Welsh border from here, 45 minutes to Wrexham, 50 to Shrewsbury and Chester, an hour to Alton Towers, and an hour and 15 minutes to both Liverpool and Manchester. And if you're after a peaceful base where you don't want to wander far at all? Also easily sorted, as Sunny Side Touring Park's Nantwich setting is metres from the Shropshire Union Canal for spectacularly scenic strolls or bike rides along the water. There's also a warm, welcoming bar serving delicious food on site. On site, there are two specimen fishing lakes where guests can fish for an extra cost. They stock carp up to 40 pounds and catfish up to 70 pounds. The site is family-run, quiet and relaxed. Barbecues and campfires (off-ground only) are both allowed, and logs are for sale on site. Sort other supplies a couple of miles away in the friendly little village of Audlem, where there are restaurants and pubs as well as shops. A handy utilities room on site gives guests access to a washing machine, washing-up sinks, a microwave and a kettle.

What customers say

This is a well-maintained and friendly site with spacious pitches and excellent, clean washing facilities. Guests highlight the helpful staff, on-site pub with good food and entertainment, and lovely walks along the canal. While some found the showers to be short-timed and the WiFi poor, most visitors highly recommend the site and express a desire to return.

Paradise lake electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch (adults only, lake view)

Liked Nice site with bar, food & fishing

Disliked Unfortunately there are rules in place but they are not enforced.
Camping in Coolacres is stated adults only - lots of kids
No entering fishing area without adult - lots of kids fishing without adults
Kids screaming and running around at 11:30pm and then again at 5:30am
Could be a really good site but unfortunately it’s not

Sunny Field electric grass pitch

Liked lovely well organised very clean site. toilets and shower room was immaculate all the time. The pub onsite was ok. we loved the goats Ronnie and Reggie cray. we fished on the 1st night and was over charged but the lady said they could fish for a few hours when we got back on the 2nd night as the kids wanted to but was only 2 hrs left. which i thought was great. We went on a local walk the 2nd day which i highly recommend Hawkshaw follies, it had caves pixies trolls high swing bridges. it was a great day out with the kiddies.

Disliked It’s very residential so kind of felt we were 2nd to them understandable as people live there permanently, but when your paying the money too and being away with friends and family we expect to be able to be treated as equals.

Sunny Field electric grass pitch

Liked The washing facilities were excellent, they included washing machine, bowls drainer kettle microwave. The toilet block was very clean which included two showers and three toilets. Everyone was friendly and helpful, as we hadn’t been camping for years we had forgotten our electric socket and they found one for us to use. The pub on site was lovely with entertainment on Saturday night and food was good too. The camping pitch was spacious and plenty of space between pitches.
We had a lovely walk past the lakes and onto the canal where there are lots of canal boats and a lovely pub in Audlem.

Disliked Nothing to dislike.

Non-electric grass tent pitch (no cars, solo)

Liked Friendly, decent showers and toilets.

Disliked Cafe/bar was closed and apparently only opens randomly so not much help.
Noisy but that may just have been my visit with music played from 7am to 9pm pretty much

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your review Andrew
Customer satisfaction is our main aim

I am confused as you only stayed one night and that was a Tuesday arriving late afternoon and checkout is 11am.
We have rules onsite that music is not to be to loud and has to be off at 10pm guest do respect our rules 99% of the time Our onsite bar/cafe opens wed-Thur 10;30am-4;30pm and Fri-Sun 9am-until close. unless unforeseen circumstances happen
There was not many guest on when you stayed so i do not know how you could find it noisy

Everything. Absolutely faultless. Fabulous site.…

Local attractions

The canal and a public footpath alongside are steps from the site. From Nantwich, stroll the couple of miles along the level canal towpath for views over town and the Cheshire countryside, passing the Chester Road viaduct and many moored and cruising narrowboats (to get truly envious, lurk around the marina at Basin End). A couple of pubs at Audlem overlook the canal if/when you require a pitstop. To dive into all things canal and have a natter on the same with knowledgeable types, drop into the Nantwich Canal Centre within 10 minutes' drive. You could also have mightily peaceful potters around the town's shops and wine bars, or the market that runs most days. The leisure centre has an outdoor saltwater pool for dips. Another market town is at Whitchurch, 20 minutes' drive away and two miles from the Welsh border. It's well worth a wander to see its 100+ listed buildings, and to bag foodie supplies from the specialty shops in town: cheese and pork pies are the top picks to hunt down here. From Whitchurch, you can take the train to Manchester, reachable in an hour to the north, or Shrewsbury, half an hour south.
