  • Well-equipped countryside park 12 miles from Chester
  • Award-winning amenities, plenty of space and Chester Zoo ticket sales
  • Seasonal pool, fishing lakes, tennis, play area, games and café
Some people prefer to keep their holidays very basic and remote indeed. Some people do not – and seek a spot with excellent leisure facilities, spotless amenities and customer-friendly approach… the better to get on with the important aspects of a holiday without stressing about the essentials. If this too is you, make your way to Manor Wood Country Park in green Cheshire countryside, where there’s loads to do on site, and where the amenities are so immaculate they’ve been given awards. Off site is pretty pleasing too, as Manor Wood is an easily accessible 25 minutes’ drive from Chester, Chester Castle and Chester Racecourse – and Chester Zoo, so say the kids, who’ll doubtless point out that their grownups can buy zoo tickets on site too. The park is in a nicely rural setting, home to two fishing lakes that adults and families can cast off at, and to a vast range of leisurely options indoors and out. The outdoor pool is open from the beginning of May through to September (whatever the weather), a climbing frame and play area are in the grounds and a games room with pool, table football and table tennis is indoors to take care of any inclement times. Back outside, tennis courts are available free of charge to all customers. A minute’s drive or half a mile’s stroll from Coddington, Manor Wood is surrounded by Cheshire and Nottinghamshire villages to pick up local produce and picnic bits and pieces. Make time/room too for a foray to the Lakeside Café on several occasions during your stay, for breakfast, snacks and light lunches to have indoors or outside while the kids investigate the play area; the café building also has free wifi, takeaway options and a small shop selling essentials and caravan supplies. Dogs are welcome too... so much so that they have their own section on the menu... Those who prefer things just a little quieter on their countryside holiday are invited to book from Monday to Friday in low season, to soak up the peaceful Cheshire surrounds in a more peaceful manner.

Liked The incredibly friendly staff, the sparkling clean facilities, the play park, the awesome wildlife wandering around, good touring pitches, flat and well maintained, nice pool which the kids enjoyed. Nice to have a cafe on site, will be nice to see the milk dispenser going if we come back.

Disliked Nothing much to say here, can't even think of a useful suggestion for improvement.

Liked What a wonderful little site. Staff couldn't do enough for us. We travelled with my disabled mum and in a power chair. We asked for a plot nearest to the disabled loos which was accommodated without hesitation. The plot was lovely. The pool was really nice if not a little cool but a good temperature as we were there on a hot week. Toilets were near on immaculate. Washing facilities for a non disabled person were great although hot water was hit and miss at times.

Disabled facilities however have room for improvement. Getting into the washrooms I had to help my mum in as the door didn't stay open and also wouldn't open all the way. There was a ramp however there was a lip either end that the chair wouldn't get over without a push from me which I felt a little uncomfortable doing as I basically had to go into the ladies to help her. So basically had to go the toilet every time she did to help her. The accessible shower/toilet plenty of space however no mirror (there is one in the male toilets) The shower was so powerful it actually knocked my mum off the shower chair. The taps on the sinks leaked and made like a river so all her toiletries slide off the sink.

In a powered chair trying to get to reception proved a problem as it was the other side of the automatic barrier. The "footpath" around the barrier needs resurfacing as I almost fell out of my chair going round it so I had to depend on the reception looking at the cameras to lift the barrier

However the whole trip was thoroughly enjoyable Staff were amazing and couldn't do enough for you. Thank-you for an overall brilliant stay. Paul & Tish

Local attractions

There’s plenty to do around Manor Wood for those days you’re not mooching around Chester (although do mooch around Chester for some considerable time too.) Drive about five minutes’ south for walks around the green space lying between Stretton and Clutton; a golf course and Stretton Watermill are here to stop off at. Beeston Castle, 20 minutes’ drive away just outside Tarporley, is a site of fortress ruins on a sandstone plain with spectacular views – across eight counties and over to Wales. Kids now revolting after watermill and castle time? The rides, farm and many flavours of The Ice Cream Farm adventure park are within 15 minutes’ drive.
