  • Spacious family site under 10 minutes' drive from Chester
  • 15 minutes' drive from Cheshire Oaks and Chester Zoo
  • Campfires and barbecues allowed on pitches
Take a swift exit from the end of the M56 and pitch up within minutes: how’s that for easy access? And with the M53 and A55 nearby as well, Oakwood Farm Touring Park is spectacularly well located for travel from Liverpool, Manchester and north Wales. A few miles from the fably handsome city of Chester, this site has loads of things to do nearby: a 15-minute drive will bring you to the zoo, the racecourse or a designer shopping spree. Head north a little and on a warm day (or less warm if you’re feeling brave) you can be dipping your toes in the sea at the beaches on the Wirral, half an hour’s drive away. You’re welcome to light a barbecue to cook your dinner; a supermarket 10 minutes away if you need to stock up on sausages. If you’d like to go out, a couple of pubs are a mile or so away and a wide range of eats are available in central Chester.

FHU cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: Absolutely had the best night felt so at ease, I have struggled since a child who was baught up in care all my life and witnessed my mums suicide at age 6, I'm registered disabled with severe anxiety and depression and fibromyalgia and live everyday even now having grown up by myself no parents siblings not interested as split up young, I've 5 children younest is 6 mo ths and this has honestly made me feel so at ease and safe during the night I've always suffered staying out due to trauma and I felt really at home thank you so much

Disliked: Maybe the gate could have been a little taller being in a city it crossed my mind on wether it wad easily accessible to outsiders to the site

FHU cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: A secure coded entrance with electric gate is a nice first impression on arrival. The hardstanding pitch is long enough to reverse your car in front of your awning and wide enough for a large awning. It is great that there is a cafe on site that opens 9am to 2pm each day.

Disliked: A little disingenuous to offer service pitches when only the even number pitches have the electric point and water connection.If you are allocated an odd numbered pitch your hose pipe probably won't reach the water tap as it is located on the even pitch next door. Also the waste water on the pitch is drained to the field behind the site. There is no built in drainage on each pitch. The new toilet block is not yet completed so 2 toilet traps and 1 shower for the gents at present. They were a little tired and unloved to put it nicely. Roll on the new toilet block.

From the manager: Dear Guest, Thank you for your review, we appreciate your feedback. All of our pitches have separate water and electric hook ups, I am sorry you had a problem with your water connection. I can't recall a guest having this issue before but it is certainly something we will look into. Yes we look forward to having the new shower block complete, it will be an added feature to the site. We apologise the current shower block isn't up to your standard but it is thoroughly cleaned everyday and checked by our staff during office hours. Kind Regards Oakwood Farm Chester

Nice clean site. Very welcoming and friendly. Will stay again.

Local attractions

Oakwood Farm's location puts it within easy reach not only of major cities but also lots of family-friendly attractions. A perennial favourite is Chester Zoo, 10 minutes' drive away – the 125-acre park is home to more than 15,000 animals, many of them exotic and endangered species, so there's plenty to keep you entertained for a full day. For animal life of the marine variety, head to the Blue Planet Aquarium, four miles away, where you can walk through a tunnel of sharks or sign up to don a wetsuit and get in the tank (advance booking required). Walking around the city of Chester, four miles away, makes a most agreeable day out too: stroll on the city's ancient walls, visit the cathedral's falconry exhibit, take a boat trip on the River Dee and admire the famed black and white buildings in Chester Rows. Half an hour's drive and you're on the Wirral and its beaches: go for Red Rocks beach for birdwatching or head to the North Wirral Coastal Park to climb among the sand dunes. Also on the Wirral is Port Sunlight, a village built for local factory workers in the late 19th century: there's lots to see here including a park, museum, art gallery and heritage tours.
