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

Friendly campsite with a great pub for tasty grub. Staff are super helpful. Facilities are clean & functional, though a bit basic for some. Close to Alton Towers, but expect some road noise (earplugs sometimes offered).

Liked Lovely, clean site. Easy to find and to access. The toilets and showers were exceptionally clean. They were cleaned regularly. Staff were friendly and the site felt safe for our two young children.
Food and service at the adjacent pub were excellent and the play area was an added bonus. Thanks for having us!
