Entrance to the site

  • Adults-only Cheshire touring pitches on a small site near Nantwich
  • A 40-minute drive to Chester; 10 minutes to Hack Green nuclear bunker
  • Dogs welcome, with plenty of great places to walk nearby
The folk that run The Stables are very fond of their lovely area – so they decided to open up a small touring site that would allow others to come and share the experience of being surrounded by the Cheshire countryside. They’ve kept things very simple here, just installing a couple of hardstanding pitches (each with a grass area too) with access to chemical disposal and a recycling point. (Please note that does mean no toilets or showers provided, so you’ll need to be self-sufficient.) To maintain the peace of the place, it’s an adults-only setup here – but dogs are welcome (a good move, given that there are so many great walks around in the local area). Nantwich is less than 10 minutes’ drive away for a good cluster of places to eat out, but you may well prefer to pick up supplies at the town’s shops instead and get a barbecue going back at base (top tip: try to time your town trip for a time when there’s a market on – either the daily traditional market or the monthly farmers’ market). The small number of guests means there’s plenty of peace to soak up on site – but there are also a good clutch of places to visit nearby (including fishing, antiques shopping and a not-very-secret-anymore nuclear bunker) and you can hit the historic streets of Chester in about 40 minutes for a change of scenery.

What customers say

Great spot for a quiet break! Large, level pitches with powered options. Reviewers rave about the peaceful vibe, easy access, and Julie's friendly help. Basic facilities but super clean and great value. Secure entry. Good for stopovers and chill time. A bit of road noise and occasional damp ground were mentioned.

Power optional grass and gravel caravan site

Liked Flat concrete pitch. Cheap.

Disliked Constant yapping dogs which had a horn blown at them when they didn't shut up after being shouted at. The fire that some idiot lit and created the most appalling smell all night that invaded our van and then continued to stoke said fire that was still going when we managed to escape the next day.

From the manager: Thank you for your comments. I am so sorry that you didn’t enjoy your stay, but this park is my home and the dogs are part of my life ,they are my family so I am very sorry that you didn’t like me playing with them with the horn and the games ,sometimes I do burn old leaves and wood so I am sorry you didn’t like the smell. also, I think you are the lady or gentleman I charged £10 to stay for 24 hours. because you didn’t have the right change , but you should’ve come across to me and I would’ve given you your money back and you could have left at any time, if you didn’t like the sound of the dogs, but ,Thank you again , yours sincerely , Julie Finney

Power optional grass and gravel caravan site

Liked Unfortunately we didn’t make it to the pitch due to the hired motorhome developing some faults and had to be returned to the hire company for repairs.
Julie was very understanding and kept in touch incase we were able to arrive later than planned.

Power optional concrete and grass caravan site

Liked Very easy access and secure, was welcomed on site by Julie who directed us to a good spot, the pitches are very spacious and you are not encroaching on your neighbour. 2 water points for the site and plenty rubbish bins but these should be labeled to encourage recycling. The site is generally very peaceful and despite the expanded size of the campsite and it being a bank holiday it was very peaceful. 30 minutes walk to the nearest pub in the village and 10 min drive into Nantwich so a great location. Would definitely return

Disliked The right hand side of the campsite seems to be under development and appears to be a work in progress, the grass needs some TLC and HS need to be weeded. Also doesn't have enough electric points for all pitches at the time of our stay and seemed to be over booked for people wanting EHU over the BH weekend, so many people were searching round for the EHU points and in some cases being advised they could share, fine if you are with friends and have a splitter but at the high cost of electric on site I would be reluctant to share. We were running off Gas the whole time and cost us £11 for 3 nights. All that said, The site has loads of potential and very well set out, we would definitely return.

Power optional concrete and grass caravan site

Liked Secure site
Spacious
Quiet mostly (occasional road noise)
Short drive (or long walk) into Nantwich
Cheap pitches
Julie very welcoming

Disliked Grass badly needed cutting.
Recycling point is just black bins - no labels
Electricity seems very expensive at .55kwh
More than double house rates. Costs about £5 / night with basically just fridge running, and very little else.
Also, booking EHU doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll get EHU to yourself, you may have to share, and that relies on using a splitter. Overall at £20/night still a good price in today’s market.

To be fair I think the site is new and the owners are working on these issues. Might be sorted soon. Great future potential

Peaceful site with occasional road noise

Disliked Not all pitches have electric so you have to look around, also you may end up sharing using a splitter with your neighbour
£15 per night without electric.
Metered electric approximately £5 extra per night using minimal electric
Dog walk needed mowing grass too long for small dogs

Power optional concrete and grass caravan site

Liked Lovely quiet spot and good sized pitches. Electricity on the meter, barely cost us anything to use. Handy having a dog field.

Disliked My only thought is it could do with a gap in the fence to save going right round carrying a heavy waste carrier to the elsan point (depending where your pitch is)

Local attractions

Make sure you’ve got some space left in your tourer, as there’s some good retail therapy going on around here – as well as those markets in Nantwich, you might like to stop by at Dagfields Craft & Antiques or Bridgemere Garden Centre (both 10 minutes’ drive). There are lots of shops in Chester (40 minutes) too, of course – along with some gorgeous black-and-white houses, a medieval cathedral and the only intact set of defensive city walls in the UK. It’s easy enough to make a full day out in the city, but you could tag on a trip to Chester Zoo or Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet too if you like. Staying closer to home, it’s worth seeking out Hack Green Secret Nuclear Bunker (10 minutes) for a dip into 20th-century military history – and you may also like to book in a gin tour and tasting at Three Wrens Distillery (10 minutes). It’s about the same drive time to Coole Acres Fishery for those who are handy with a rod.
