What customers say

Great adult-only spot by the lake. Clean facilities, friendly owners, spacious pitches. A few sloped pitches and patchy phone signal noted, but most love it and plan to return.

Liked Lovely relaxing weekends stay, the hot tub was amazing, i loved the quirky social area, and my husband enjoyed the apples from the apples tree in the garden.
Dave and Ingrid were lovely, very welcoming, a slight mix up with pitches which really wasn't a problem and easily sorted (were all human) they insisted on making it up to us with a complimentary fire pit.
I have already recommended this site to friends, we will deffinatly be back to stay again.

Liked Peaceful, rustic location.
We'll kept and thoughtful "social gathering room".
Nice.
Vendor gave us a map of circular waterside/woodland walks and a list of places to visit.

Unpowered grass campervan site

Liked Well kept site with excellent facilities. Well
Signposted.
Shower and loo block were spotless.
Social area was great with fridges, kettles etc. There’s benches and sofas, tv etc.
was given an info sheet on arrival with local walks and things to see.
10 walk to the Mere with a nice 45 minute walk around, through woodland and a boardwalk. As a solo female, it felt very safe and was used by families and walkers.
Really quiet and dark at night with just a couple of hooting owls, heaven!
I was in a campervan and I noticed a few vans used chocks to get level but there are plenty of level pitches.
Will definitely return.

Unpowered grass campervan site

Liked My husband and I loved our stay here as a peaceful night away without the children. The facilities were excellent and the communal area is beautiful and so well-equipped.

Disliked We had tried to book the hot tub but there was a breakdown in communication and this wasn't ready when we arrived, which was a shame.

Recommend to friends Visit again

Just our kind of place.

Unpowered grass campervan site

Liked great toilets and showers, brilliant indoor cooking and chilling facility if needed, well maintained and very pretty campsite if you are using electric hook up. I think those that are not are put in adjoining field , not as pretty but lush countryside and loads of sky.

Disliked bit of walk to the toilets from the furthest point of the site but not a massive issue.

Local attractions

There's stacks to do in the surrounding area, whether you want to stick close to home by foot or pedal, or drive a bit further afield to the towns, tourist attractions and landscapes of Shropshire, Cheshire and north-east Wales – the city of Chester is 40 minutes away and Llangollen on the River Dee reachable within an hour. On the doorstep, tackle the two-mile walk along the canal towpath to Ellesmere or make your way via the purpose-built circular walk and through a wooded area of rhododendrons around the mere and nature reserve, a Site of Special Scientific Interest with species galore to see like otters, lapwings and water birds. The reserve also has several deep fishing pools well-stocked with catfish and big carp; more fishing – and carp – can be had nearby at Blackmere along the towpath from Colmere. Also nearby, wander into Colemere village to see the fifteenth-century thatched cottages, listed in the Domesday Book, to Ellesmere for food festivals, regattas and boat rides on the mere, or drive to Rednal Karting, Paintballing and Laser for an exciting time ten minutes away. Castles including Chirk and Whittington are a doddle to drive to too. If being on the water is your thing, a narrowboat marina is a three-minute drive away from the caravan park and both Colemere and Whitemere sailing clubs are within easy reach. By car, the standard of whitewater rafting at Bala Adventure and Watersports will have you foaming at the mouth – a milder form of the sport, along with abseiling, gorge walking, a steam railway and horse-drawn boat trips is available over the border in Wales at Llangollen.
