Clean, well-kept site with friendly staff. Spacious, level pitches, often fully serviced. Facilities excellent, showers roomy. Ideal for canal walks, pubs nearby. Some guests noted A5 traffic noise, others unbothered. Popular weekend bar.

Lovely location - peaceful walk
Fully-serviced gravel caravan site (premium, maximum 7 metres)
Liked Location - great location, 2 min walk from Llangollen Canal, Chirk Aqueduct. Short drive to Chirk castle and Pontcysyllte Aqueduct
Friendly and responsive - lovely staff, friendly. I called ahead as we were arriving after 6pm & Mandy was super helpful checking us in.
Pitches - spacious gravel pitches, pretty flat with EHU and water. It was really hot on arrival but were able to switch to shaded pitch, more comfy for dog
Cleanliness - bin store was clean as were bathroom. Bathroom area needs a little TLC but on the whole were clean
Facilities - onsite bar, laundry and washing up area. Spacious showers with accessible shower cubicle.
Wifi - good
Disliked Generally not a lot to dislike but some points to consider -
Dusty - it got a little dusty when a car drove by our pitch and lifts the dust
*Noise - lots of people mentioned noise in previous reviews. You can hear traffic and it was busier on Friday ( we arrived) and quieter on Saturday. It didn’t bother us and we both slept well in our campervan.
Showers - not all cubicles had hooks, i took my own to hang over the door. The shower head need replacing

Anonymous Fully-serviced gravel caravan site (premium, maximum 7 metres)
Liked When entering the site, we were very impressed with the landscape. Very clean and tidy.
When booking in the girl in reception was very pleasant and helpful, explained which pitch we were on. It was good to have electric, water and grey waste on our pitch
Toilets and showers were always very clean.
Free WiFi was great to have.
Great to have Dobbies garden centre and shops, also The Poachers pub within walking distance.
Disliked Road noise was quite intrusive but we had seen reviews so expected it.
The pitches seemed quite close to one another.
Only 3 ladies showers, no hooks to hang clothes etc on in 2 of them so articles got wet.

If you can live with the road noise, definitely worth a visit.
Fully-serviced gravel caravan site (premium, maximum 7 metres)
Liked Firstly the hosts of the site were extremely friendly and couldn't do enough to help with anything. The site was extremely clean and well maintained with really nice amenities. Plenty to do off site with lovely canal walk.
Disliked Pub was open for the England game, however unfortunately not open on the Sunday afternoon or evening. However not sure if this was due to no many people on site being a Sunday. The site backs onto the main road, so if you want bird song and the sound of wind passing through the trees probably not fot you.
