Manor Farm Caravan Park

Positiv We really enjoyed the location — it’s great for exploring, and Chester is only around a 20-minute drive with everything you could possibly need.

The small shop next door is handy too, selling a bit of everything for those little forgotten items.

The managers were genuinely lovely. They’ve only been there since November if i remember correctly, but were open, helpful and clearly passionate about improving the site. We were also told about the future plans, and if everything goes ahead, this could become an incredible place to stay.

Negativ When we booked, the site was advertised as having 16-amp electric, but on arrival we were told it had been reduced to 10-amp without prior notice, and we were asked to use gas for heating. This did leave us feeling a bit disappointed at the start of our stay.

The power tripped at least twice each night, which became disruptive. Hopefully this is something that will be addressed as part of the planned upgrades.

The shower and toilet block feels more like a temporary building, with limited facilities (one toilet in the gents, two urinals and three showers), and the toilet door doesn’t close properly.

The shower/toilet area is also very cold — there’s a radiator, but it hasn’t been on during our stay. In winter, it means you’re rushing instead of being able to relax.

The “hardstanding” pitches are more like flattened rubble, and the constantly locked gates and coded doors can feel inconvenient, especially with the stiff toilet block door.

Despite this, the site clearly has potential and we really hope the planned improvements come soon.

Positiv Loved the area, shower/toilet block was a great addition, pitches were an excellent size so plenty of room for my little campervan. Would definitely return!
Also loved the manor farm cafe for breakfast next door. Great price and lovely food.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Thank you for your lovely review, we look forward to welcoming you back some time in the new year

Positiv Friendly staff. Good location for Chester.

Negativ Unfortunately when we stayed there had been a lot of rain the hard standing pitches were flooded and muddy. We were unable to put our awning up as we had to park on the end of the pitch on the loose gravel . The electricity kept tripping which meant us trying to walk through the mud to reset. I would have personally preferred the site to have cancelled so we could have found somewhere more suitable. Mobile phone signal poor in the area. The site managers said the site is due to have some investment. I would consider staying again but in dryer conditions.

Positiv Security on site was excellent. Staff were very helpful and polite.
Showers and toilets were always clean as was the washing up area and toilet waste area.
Having the countryside store( camping supplies included)with cafe next door now makes an already good site even better..
My thanks to Joe !

Positiv Good value, lovely friendly welcome and interactions with site owners. Nice hot showers. Flat pitches. Huge dog walking field. Good location for visiting the Chester and Ellesmere area.

Negativ Grass quite waterlogged with staffing water in areas but there had been a lot of rain too be fair. Quite a muddy area around the tap when refilling.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Thank you for your lovely review, we hope to welcome you back soon.We are looking into the issues with the water taps

Positiv We booked this campsite for 2 nights, my husband had a works party in Chester itself so i stayed on the campsite alone, having the manager on site made me feel very safe and she was very friendly and accommodating, my only negative was that unfortunately due to unforeseen circumstances the electric hookup wasn’t working the first day but i did receive a call that morning to tell me that this issue had just happened which was great, at least we knew in advance but we was okay as our van is set up for wild camping.
Will definatly be staying here again
Oh yes and the little cafe next to the site is an absolute little gem of a place. Lovely food and very reasonably priced

Vom Platzbetreiber: Thank you for your review Susan, it is much appreciated. :)

Positiv Would have been nice to be able to review this but when you get cancelled a few days before your stay.....

Negativ Said something about electric issues, we stayed here in 2021 and we had no electric for 2 days as they had electric issues then too. Too many people on site using the electric so it over powers the supply and then causes issues.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Hi Heather, Apologies that you didn't get to stay with us. Unfortunately we did have electrical issues on site due to a drop in temperature and an overload on the system. You were offered a refund which you accepted or your stay again with us once the issues had been resolved.
We have only had the park since June this year so were unaware of any previous electrical issues with the park. This problem has been rectified and we apologise again for any inconvenience caused. The last thing we want to do is cancel/move bookings, however some things are not an instant fix.
