What customers say

A welcoming, clean site with level pitches & helpful owner Carrie. Great for walks. Facilities praised, though showers/toilets can be busy at peak times. Occasional road noise. Mostly excellent, many planning to return.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and will definitely be returning! The facilities were basic but great! It was our first time camping with no electric hookup but the only thing we needed was to charge our phones and this was provided within one bathroom (bring your charges) The Children loved the chickens! And the hire of the fire-pits were a lovely touch! We brought our own coolbox, but fridge and a freezer was available to store things! The campsite is a 5 minute drive from Oswestry or buses run outside the site located on the main road. Perfect weekend!

Disliked The signal was very poor with EE - nothing to do with the campsite! So take plenty of games and activities to entertain the children instead of youtube 😂

Claire W.

Bell tent (six person, basic)

Liked Nice chilled out vibe, really friendly and helpful campsite owner, the chickens and ducks were ace! We stayed in their large bell tent which was so lovely, and really spacious for a family of 4. Nice hot showers and you could buy a few bits from the reception including ice lollies, and could refreeze your ice packs in the freezer and pick up ice for free too.

Disliked Very little signal there.

Primitive grass RV campsite

Liked The campsite is very peaceful, the toilets and showers are very clean. Carrie was very helpful and she was very attentive to cleaning and preparing for new guests.
The chickens were very entertaining for our children and they loved the sand area.

Disliked Nothing - although our kids want chickens now!

Ieva S.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Big size pitches, host was around or could be easily found in her house nearby. Cleaning around and keeping area clean. Straight surface.
Chickens and little kids corner was lovely as it kept kids busy and they could spend time there with new friends met onsite.

Fridge is very useful, I believe there was even freezer. Only good points for that.

Disliked Extra toilet and shower would be good idea, as there is time you could que for it, but I won't take point down for that.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked We had a lovely few days here. The owner Carrie is very pleasant and accommodating, and she never seems to clock out. Facilities are immaculate, the toilets have no bugs as nobody leaves lights on. Found the canal and went for a run on it one morning, enjoyed that, always wary of dogs on unknown roads but there weren’t any. Might never get back here again but have no problem recommending Fairhaven!

Local attractions

Getting a fix of rural life is pretty simple around here: take your rod over to Weston Pools Fishery (two minutes’ drive) for a day by the water or make friends with farmyard animals at Park Hall The Countryside Experience (10 minutes). If you time your stay right you might also be able to catch an event at the Oswestry & District Agricultural Society showground (10 minutes). Fancy a hit of history with that? Try Whittington Castle (10 minutes), which often stages goings-on like medieval days and ghost tours, or take an inside/outside stroll around Chirk Castle and its gorgeous gardens (20 minutes). If your tastes veer more towards the 21st century, check out the creations at the British Ironwork Centre or check out Cae Glas Park and the eclectic mix of shops in Oswestry (all about five minutes away). Folk who just want to get out for a walk should set their sights on Wat’s Dyke Way (five minutes away), take a waterside wander at The Mere (20 minutes) or nip over the border into Wales to stroll along the shores of Lake Vyrnwy (45 minutes). Fancy a pint at the end of it all? Head to Stonehouse Brewery, a mile from the site, for a tour and/or samples of some award-winning beers.
