Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked: Huge pitches, quiet and peaceful. Nice pizzas and a cool boat bar. Cheap wood and firepit. Outdoor showers when it's warm weather.

Disliked: 500m walk to the car, cafe closed all day, portaloo and showers not the cleanest.

Liked: Everything! The staff couldn’t be more helpful. Even though you can’t park by your pitch the staff were on hand to take your belongings in a trailer. Onsite cafe open daily plus a boat bar and pizza cabin

Fully-serviced grass motorhome pitch

Liked: The site is well maintained, with friendly staff. Pitches are huge and the facilities are brilliant. We had a pizza and kabab (delicious) and a drink from the barge for our evening meal and then we had a full English at the cafe in the morning. Both times we sat and enjoyed watching the boats on the marina. Dogs loved it!

Local attractions

Start off with some good old-fashioned industrial heritage at the Lion Salt Works in the nearby village of Marston (10 minutes' drive), or visit the Anderton Boat Lift (15 minutes) to see how ingenious Victorian engineers negotiated a 50-foot drop between the river Weaver and the Trent and Mersey Canal. The handsome market town of Northwich (10 minutes) and its bustling high street should be next on your agenda – especially if your stay at Oakwood Marina coincides with its monthly artisanal market. For cities where there's always something on, you could head to Chester (40 minutes) or Manchester (40 minutes), both of which have top museums, kid-friendly attractions, shopping opportunities and historic quarters to explore. Need a breather after all that? Fresh air – and plenty of it – is available at Marbury Country Park (15 minutes), Tatton Park (20 minutes) or Dunham Massey (25 minutes), a National Trust-managed property with a deer park and garden that makes the place well worth visiting all year round.
