  • Set in over 100 acres of countryside 10 minutes' drive from Nantwich
  • Café and picnic areas; access to walks along the towpath
Peaceful and scenic, Aqueduct Marina and Caravan Park is a prime destination for anyone who adores the countryside. Based on the Middlewich Branch of the Shropshire Union Canal in Church Minshull, the Cheshire park also has a great set of marina facilities. It's set in 100 acres, so guests can watch the wildlife or take a walk along the towpath. Afterwards, you might fancy a visit to the marina’s licensed café and picnic areas to unwind or rest your feet. If you fancy getting out on the water too, boat hire is available on site. Families, couples, small groups and dogs are all welcome on the site. For activities outside of the park, there are many shops, cafés and pubs in the market town Nantwich, which is a five-mile drive away. There’s also easy access to the M6 and the B5074 in Church Minshull. The amenities at Aqueduct Marina and Caravan Park are nice and convenient too: they include well-maintained bathroom facilities with toilets, showers and sinks, as well as accessible features for guests with mobility challenges. The site also has 24-hour laundry facilities.

Primitive grass RV campsite

Liked So peaceful, even though next to a working boatyard/marina. Lovely, clean and well kept. Massive field for dogs off lead walking. Great facilities.

Disliked The steps to the toilet and shower block are a bit steep and have no handrail. Our only minor complaint, everything else was great.

FHU gravel travel trailer campsite (premium)

Liked Lovely site on a marina.
The site is very clean with places to walk our dog.
Shower block was clean and tidy with a shower toilet and sink in each cubicle giving privacy rather than all in the same block.
The on site licensed cafe served tasty food and drink and the staff are very friendly and couldn’t help enough with anything needed
They had live music on the Saturday and the weather made the stay even more enjoyable.
The site is very quiet so a good nights sleep was had after a lovely day in the sun drinking, chatting and listening to the entertainment.
We thoroughly enjoyed the stay and will definitely be visiting again!

Disliked Alcohol was a bit pricey however we have paid more in some pubs…..we were on holiday so didn’t mind in the slightest.

Bell tent (four person)

Liked Loved this campsite. We went glamping in a lovely big field. Tent was amazing. Beds made up and towels left for us. Bliss!! Loved the fairly lights too.
Also the cafe and marina area was a lovely way to spend the evening. Esp the live music and chatting to some of the people with canal boats.
Toilets were amazing- little cubicles with toilets and showers all in one.

Disliked Fair walk to the toilets in the middle of the night but not too bad!

Local attractions

Aqueduct Marina and Caravan Park's Cheshire location and easy access from the M6 means it's in a most handy spot to get to heaps of tourist attractions around this part of the north west and Chester. A popular option in the area is Oulton Park, the racing track in the little village of Budworth that bills itself as the most picturesque track in all the land, or you could hike around the wilds of nearby Delamere Forest, or stick to lazy days and potter around small Cheshire villages like Tattenhall and Tarporley. Chester is also easily accessible from the caravan park and has heaps to see among its old streets and swish shops. Animal fans make their way to Chester Zoo on the outskirts of the city to see as many as possible of its 12,000+ animals and over 400 species; if nature is your animalish thing, also get along to the Blue Planet Aquarium and its 100 or so living displays including the biggest school of sharks in Europe. Green fingered? Clear the car boot and drive over to Bridgemere, one of the biggest garden centres in the world and with all things gardenlike as well as toys and clothes in its mammoth shopping centre.
