Electric grass pitch
Liked: Lovely caravan & touring park. Very spacious good size pitches & well kept site. Great dog walking area. Shower block very clean. Very welcoming helpful staff. We were offered a gravel pitch instead of the grass one we booked as the weather was so bad. Great pub nearby doing lovely food. On site shop selling lots of basics & directions to walks in the area.
Disliked: The pitch we were on was very close to the amenities & various activities on the site. Our 2nd morning we were woken to sound of digging using very noisy electrical equipment which carried on during the morning. Next day a huge sewage tanker arrived presumably removing waste. Smell was awful. There was deliveries & general maintenance. It was not a peaceful stay & we only booked 3 nights. Not what you want on holiday. I would advise having a pitch away from the main drag.

Electric grass pitch
Liked: Loved the friendly atmosphere. Site was not-too-large, staff really friendly. Quite a families with school-age kids (& below) who seemed to have a lot of fun, but weren’t noisy at night. It looked to be pet-friendly, but it was mostly smaller dogs I saw (all well behaved & lovely) Facilities include toilet/shower bloc (clean & good condition), washing up areas, freezer (for campers), little shop (open 9-5 I think), great-sized playground (mostly aimed at school-age kids), dog-walking route. Decent amount of space for kids to run around (no kites tho due to an a small overhead power line!) Lots of things to do a short drive away, with Delamere Forest, Beeston Castle, the Ice Cream Factory and the lovely village of Tarporley within 20 mins drive or less. Loads of great places to eat for a posh pub lunch. And on site they have a pizza oven which they fire up (Fridays & Wednesdays if demand is enough) which is definitely worth a try if you get a chance! In summary- great, friendly place, it looks like the people there really care & it shows.
Disliked: Site was excellent, only very minor thing is that most activities were a short car drive away, so unless you are willing to brave the narrow Cheshire country roads, you really need to hop into a car to go for a walk, and most external places (Delamere, Beeston) charge so you’ll have to budget that in.

From the manager: Thanks for your really detailed review Susanna. We do really care & I'm glad you noticed. Our team of staff are fantastic & they treat the park as if it were their own. You make a good point about needed a car, particularly for children's activities. It's great that we've got pubs in walking distance, but you do need to get in your car for more adventurous activities. We hope to see you again soon.
