  • Peaceful setting overlooking the Cheshire Plain, close to Whitchurch
  • On National Cycle Route 47, and near Sandstone Trail walkers’ path
  • Within easy reach of pubs with gin nights and authentic curries
Looking for a peaceful spot where you don’t have to sacrifice the luxury of nearby pubs and restaurants? Head to Cheshire site Marbury Camp and Lodge, where you can look out over the Cheshire Plain by day and devour pub grub by night – the team on site can point you towards gin evenings and excellent curries… a winning combo after a day of exploring. Speaking of exploring, there are enough walks and bike routes around to ensure you get your fill of countryside. The site is right on a national cycle route so make sure you pack your bike helmet – the site owners can help with bike hire and a map of the local cycle routes too. If walking is more your thing you can link up with the Sandstone Trail for 34 miles of unbroken, and often elevated, walking. The outdoor adventures don’t stop there, as this place is a great base for golfing, shooting and fishing as well, with all found within around four miles of the site. Worn out just by reading the activities dotted around? There’s also plenty to do if you’re after a more chilled day. The nearby local market towns of Whitchurch (three miles away) and Nantwich (eight miles) have various market days and plenty of shopping, eating and drinking options. Supplies can also be sourced closer to home in the village of Wrenbury, a mile away. Site amenities include a shower block and chemical disposal, and there's also the option to hire firepits (subject to availability).

This is a peaceful, well-maintained campsite with beautiful countryside views. Visitors frequently praise the immaculate toilet and shower facilities, spacious pitches, and friendly, helpful owners. The on-site shop and optional fire pits are also popular. Some reviewers mention the site can be muddy after rain, and a few experienced noise disturbances from other guests, though management addresses issues promptly.

Electric optional grass tent pitch

Liked It's a clean, well laid out site. Each tent pitch had an accessible electric hookup, tap and picnic bench. Toilets clean and good facilities offered. Very scenic setting.

Disliked Booked on basis allows BBQs in website filter section but then the raft of rules came through via email. Only site owner approved BBQs and really want you to get their own fire pits. Look very good, but adding £25 to a night stay isn't really practical. 40 mins walk to The Swan which is a very nice pub, but not alot else to walk to without setting off for the day. 9pm quiet definitely not enforced which we prefer but why say it. Got there at 2:30pm and had to use the pitches on a slope, not a problem for the night but get there early for long stays.

Electric optional grass tent pitch

Liked Very quiet, clean, lovely site. The added extra of having a picnic bench on every pitch is so helpful. Didnt meet the owners however the pre emails and notices around make you feel just at home. The kids loved the open spaces to play.

Local attractions

Marbury Camp and Lodge is on the National Cycle Network's Route 47, a fine option for leisure riders, serious biking types and all those in between. There are also walks in all directions, with the Sandstone Trail walkers’ haven around 12 miles from the site. For a spot of sightseeing, set out to soak up the culture at a number of churches and castles nearby. For some gothic architecture head to Combermere Abbey (around 10 minutes' drive) or Cholmondeley Castle Gardens (about 15 minutes). The medieval Beeston Castle (20 minutes) comes with spectacular views and a 40-acre woodland park to amble about in. Several of the surrounding towns have a lot to offer here. As well as Whitchurch there's also Nantwich (15 minutes), known for its listed buildings and annual cheese show (yum). Crewe is also a short drive away (about half an hour) if you still haven’t got your fill of eating, drinking, shopping and sightseeing.
