  • A 10-minute drive from Alton Towers and Uttoxeter Racecourse
  • Large family-friendly bar and restaurant with events and takeaways
  • Spacious beer garden with play area and large climbing frame
Up for theme park thrills? New Broom Camping and Caravan Site is 10 minutes' drive away from Alton Towers – and has a comfy number of amenities to have you sorted on site too. Set in two peaceful acres with flat grass pitches, the park has a traditional pub (which is both large and family-friendly) with a family restaurant. There's also a big beer garden with a play area. And it's all in the small Staffordshire village of Checkley, a short drive away from Uttoxeter Racecourse and The Potteries as well as Alton Towers. The pub serves decently priced drinks and meals including carvery, cooked breakfasts and pizza (pizza is available for takeaway too). It's got a pool table for evenings of friendly competition, and hosts regular events such as rock nights, tribute nights and darts nights. New Broom also has a toilet/shower facility that guests can use free of charge, 24 hours a day.

What customers say

This small, friendly campsite is praised for its great location, especially for Alton Towers. Guests rave about the food and welcoming staff at the on-site pub. Facilities are generally clean, though some find them basic but functional. Road noise is occasionally noted but often not an issue. Many want to return.

Powered grass tent campsite

Liked Great pitch with electric hook up, nice views. John (manager) walked us up to the field and let us pick our pitch. Had an excellent meal at the pub, good value and very friendly welcoming staff. Noted the showers were being inspected and cleaned regularly. We only stayed the one night to test our tent but will definitely be back. Thanks John for making us feel welcome.
