General
- Family-run park a mile from Oulton Park Circuit
- Set in the countryside with views over the Cheshire plains
- Shop on site selling locally sourced bacon, eggs and sausages
If you're off to Oulton Park Circuit to see the fast cars, you might want a speedy return to base after a long day of envy. And you'll have it at Cheshire's Elm Cottage Touring Park, which is just a mile from the circuit as well as within easy reach of other popular pulls in the area like Chester, Delamere Forest, the north Wales coast, Snowdonia, the Peak District, Liverpool, Manchester…
Elm Cottage is family owned and run, set in Cheshire countryside and surrounded by farming fields with a view across the Cheshire plains. It has an eco-friendly toilet block with free showers, constant hot water, underfloor heating, hairdryers and an easy access shower for family users or disabled guests.
There's also a big exercise area for dogs and a play area for ball games, a large selection of tourist info at reception, and a shop on site selling locally sourced bacon, eggs and sausages plus basic grocery and non-food items as well as soft drinks and locally made ice cream.
A popular pub serving good food and ales is a short distance from the site entrance and two pubs are in the local village of Little Budworth. If you fancy pizza, the Elm Cottage owners dish it up every Friday evening during the summer, freshly made in the site's new pizza oven.

Check availability at Elm Cottage Touring Park…
Many sites set a maximum occupancy of 6/8 people per pitch, so try breaking your booking down into smaller groups to generate more results. For example, if you’re a group of 10, enter 5 people in your initial search and then book 2 pitches.
However, where the pitch or accommodation occupancy allows it, you can make a booking for up to 30 adults and 30 children in one booking.
To book multiple pitches or accommodation, use the 'Special requests' box on the booking page to ask to be sited together. Complete the booking form for the first booking (you can add a password and save your card so that we remember your details). Then click "Make another booking like this" at the top of the confirmation page to make the next booking.
Large groups: check the listing page for any group restrictions set out in the terms and section titled ‘Please note’.
Large tents/caravans: check the restrictions on unit dimensions to ensure your unit is suitable for the space you will be provided with.

Thank you Sandra for the review. In the showers/sinks we do have to consider that children use these facilities so we have to ensure the water temp is suitable for everyone. We too would like the water a bit hotter but it is a compromise. Thanks for the positive feedback on the cleanliness. Regards, James. Jackie & the Elm Cottage team. |

Thanks Lindsey for the review. We have made a formal complaint through the proper council channels about the noise from the party (which was c1m northwest of our location). Hopefully something can be done. Take care and hope that hasn't put you off returning to Elm Cottage. Regards from us all. |
