  • Peaceful, well-maintained and family-run park in a central setting
  • Safe direct access link to the Shropshire Union Canal for strolls
  • Fish at three fishing lakes for a fee; bar/bistro two minutes' stroll
Cheshire countryside, anyone? In a setting that's quite rightly been pointed out as central to pretty much anywhere? Easily sorted when pitching up at Sunny Side Touring Park. Set in green countryside with loads of open space, Sunny Side is central indeed: it's about 20 minutes by car to the Welsh border from here, 45 minutes to Wrexham, 50 to Shrewsbury and Chester, an hour to Alton Towers, and an hour and 15 minutes to both Liverpool and Manchester. And if you're after a peaceful base where you don't want to wander far at all? Also easily sorted, as Sunny Side's Nantwich setting is metres from the Shropshire Union Canal for spectacularly scenic strolls or bike rides along the water. There's also a bar/bistro a couple minutes' stroll away. On site, there are three fishing lakes where guests can fish for an extra cost. They stock up to 40-pound carp and catfish. Sunny Side is family run, and allows only a handful of pitches on site to keep its quiet and relaxed vibe. Barbecues and campfires are both allowed: sort supplies a couple of miles away in the friendly little village of Audlem, where there are restaurants and pubs as well as shops. A handy utilities room on site gives guests access to a washing machine, washing-up sinks, a microwave and a kettle.

Cabin

Liked: I stayed at Sunny side in the Shepherds Hut with my 13 month old puppy and we had an amazing break. Facilities are clean, tidy and modern. We had great Canal walks visits to Audlem and Overwater Marina. The onsite Bar was a nice place to stop and have a cheeky Wine n Lemonade and evening meal with friendly staff and friendly holiday makers. The site is a credit to Sharon, all her staff are so friendly and welcoming going above and beyond to chat, also to help and advise on places to visit. To top it of the weather was Fab. Thank you Sunny Side team for a relaxing stay.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite (solo)

Liked: Really nice setup and all very clean and tidy. Very quiet (though it was a Sunday so might have been expected). As a solo with a small tent the microwave and kettle in 'wash-up' area were really useful.

Powered gravel and cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked: Virgin motorhomers, site staff/ owners were friendly and helpful on arrival. Site was well equipped, clean and tidy! My son thought different when he used the male Toilet only to find out it was the chemical waste point 🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️ All of the facilities were spot on! Would highly recommended and will visit again. Given a 5 star for the WiFi as we didn’t use our phones! So that’s just what we wanted!

Disliked: Weather

Disliked: Not been a problem this time but as it was bank holiday weekend and the park was full there’s only 3 toilets and 2 showers maybe a few more would be better

Local attractions

The canal and a public footpath alongside are steps from the site. From Nantwich, stroll the couple of miles along the level canal towpath for views over town and the Cheshire countryside, passing the Chester Road viaduct and many moored and cruising narrowboats (to get truly envious, lurk around the marina at Basin End). A couple of pubs at Audlem overlook the canal if/when you require a pitstop. To dive into all things canal and have a natter on the same with knowledgeable types, drop into the Nantwich Canal Centre within 10 minutes' drive. You could also have mightily peaceful potters around the town's shops and wine bars, or the market that runs most days. The leisure centre has an outdoor saltwater pool for dips. Another market town is at Whitchurch, 20 minutes' drive away and two miles from the Welsh border. It's well worth a wander to see its 100+ listed buildings, and to bag foodie supplies from the speciality shops in town: cheese and pork pies are the top picks to hunt down here. From Whitchurch, you can take the train to Manchester, reachable in an hour to the north, or Shrewsbury, half an hour south.
