The main site and surrounding area.

On arrival we pulled into the main site and thought what a beautiful site.
Saw a sign to knock the door on the house.
Knocked the door and waited a while for an answer. The male owner eventually answered the door and didn't know we had booked he then went inside and returned about 10 minutes later with a giant laminated map. He then proceeded to talk about the surrounding area and the trails and walks you could follow.
I asked where should we pitch and was told to exit the main site go into the field next door and park anywhere except by a cone.
We were never given any information about where facilities were including a guest area, toilets, showers, wifi and waste facilities.
We entered the field and could not believe our eyes it was full of weeds and nettles and had a big hill in the middle there were 2 vans in the field and we drove up and around before finding a flat area.
We were extremely dissapointed.
My partner has disabilities with her spine so went to see why we couldn't move onto the main site nearer the toilets and showers.
My partner then seen the female owner and explained that it would be difficult to get back and forward the facilities which were next to the owners house.
Here response was that she wasn't to know and quite abruptly said park in the main field towards the left.
We re entered the main site and found a pitch to the left. As we were unpacking she then re approached and from a distance kept saying she wasn't to know. We had only booked the site the evening before through pitch up as a stopover last minute and just wanted to relax.
The way she spoke was rude and abrupt and left me and my partner actually speechless and on edge.
We decided to just carry on unpacking and ignore the rudeness towards us.
The male owner drove around cutting the grass and didn't even acknowledge we were there.
Once he had finished cutting the grass the male owner his wife and a guest sat in the campsite communal area all evening drinking wine and having food.
It was clear that no guests were wanted on the main site and they were using guest facilities for there own use.
More campers arrived and were all ushered into the awful field next door. I spoke with the other campers and they were also not offered the nice pitches on the main site.
And told to go into the awful field.
We stayed by our van and only when necessary we walked over to use the toilet.
We felt we had pitched up uninvited in someone's private garden party.
It was extremely uncomfortable and they were still there drinking and playing music after we had bedded down.
The only time we felt relaxed was early in the morning when we could approach the facilities with no one around.
I have since read through the reviews and Ingrid and Dave as I now can see their names do not like constructive feedback and they answer back with ude comments and exclamation marks to any unwanted comment. So I will expect the same with this review.
Also I noticed when walking the dogs that there were extension cables plugged into extension cables all around the site along the ground were cables and it seemed extremely dangerous.
The awful field is not in any of there photos online only fake beautiful photo shopped pictures of the surrounding area. It is such a shame as it could of been a fantastic stay with just the right manners and expected treatment as a paying guest.

Had an absolutely fabulous time. Site was lovely. Nice few walks around the mere and a walk into Ellesmere.

Great place

Lovely quiet campsite

Second time staying and it was just as lovely second time round

Wi-Fi available near the toilets and lounge area but not further into the fields which is perfect as you are there to be away from your phones

Wow this place would rate as the best, it was like being in a Enid Blyton book, rabbits and squirrels and abundant bird life. Great facilities and a nice walk around the Mere.
If you get the opportunity you won't regret.

Very clean peaceful site. Very friendly owner (Dave) happy to help in anyway possible. Superb walks along the canal and lakes. The amenities are to a very high standard. Definitely will return soon

Great quiet site. The owner was very welcoming. Toilets were spotless and the site had a beautiful communal room. Lovely surrounding area with good walks. Just what we needed.

Pitches were a bit uneven. We found a flat spot, but it was tricky. Next time we'll try to book on the part with electric pitches even though we don't need electric. They looked flatter.

Lovely pitch overlooking pond
Everything spotless
Friendly and helpful owners
Beautiful setting

Nothing.

Really peaceful campsite with a welcoming owner. The firepit was a lovely addition to the evening.

Not the most level site, but plenty of flat bits. Ideally the site could do with some laundry facilities.
