Powered grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked: The location is excellent with lovely views and being next to the lake. Lovely walks along the trails. Nice to have the communal space with the TV and kitchen, microwave and fridges.

Disliked: One of the showers had the temperature control missing so I had to have a cold shower one morning. (The one that was working was lovely btw). There are lots of nettles on the top field and the electric hook up cable was just placed in the middle of a big patch of them on the floor.

From the manager: Thanks for booking with us ! The nettles are now cut and the shower is fixed . Best wishes Ingrid and Dave

Adult only site with well spaced out pitches. This is an undulating site…

Phil S. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Primitive grass campervan campsite

Liked: Adult only site with well spaced out pitches. This is an undulating site with opportunity to be in the dip to be sheltered from the wind or go up onto ridge to get the views, and as such all the pitches in the field I was in weren't completely level. Site consists of three fields and I was free to choose my own pitch. So being in a campervan and going out in the day it meant the pitch I had on the first night was occupied on my return-but that's one of the usual drawbacks of having a campervan

Powered grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked: Grounds are lovely, really clean facilities (lovely hot showers!) and friendly owners. Been a few times and will be returning again soon. Beautiful surroundings and lots to do in the local area.

Disliked: Not so much a dislike as we love it here, but be prepared for 3/4G to be intermittent at your tent. Would be great if they could extend the paid for WiFi 😊 but not an issue if you are looking for a chilled weekend.

Powered grass campervan campsite

Liked: Grounds - they are incredible, picturesque, variety of wildlife non intrusive wildlife (bunnies and birds), variety of camping locations (sunset, open space, private space, sheltered, etc.), ponds and trees are all so beautiful. Facilities - Common room is nice (has a microwave if you need it), showers are clean, warm and with space for getting changed in them. Location - Colemere walking route is lovely, multiple walking routes from the campsite and varying lengths. You can walk to Ellesmere from the campsite if you wish. Easy to drive to Shrewsbury and Wales from the site. Multiple good quality restaurants nearby.

Disliked: It's amazing, definitely going back 🙂 Don't take this as a reason not to go. There's only one small sink in each of the toilets, which makes face washing difficult. Our campervan doesn't have a big enough sink to wash our faces with, whereas many do, so it's not a major thing at all.

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.
