  • Peaceful park at a marina in the centre of the Cheshire canal network
  • 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.

What customers say

This peaceful, well-kept marina site has spacious, level pitches. Guests loved the clean facilities, friendly staff, and on-site cafe. Canal-side walks are lovely, and the marina is a highlight. Most found it excellent, though some mentioned cost, facility distance, and marina focus.

FHU gravel travel trailer campsite (premium)

Liked The peaceful environment.

Disliked The new shower blocks need a more regular clean and the plughole kept clear, it's all a learning curve, would still return again

Recommend to friends Visit again

We're glad you enjoyed the peaceful environment and really appreciate your comments about the shower blocks — it's helpful and something we're working on as we continue to improve. We’re happy to hear you’d return and look forward to welcoming you back!

Primitive grass RV campsite

Liked Mostly flat camping field, didn’t need to level the Campervan at all. Blocks very good, toilet sink and shower in each which was great with hot showers. Only downside to this is if you are only waiting for the loo but it wasn’t too much of a problem. Attended Elvis event which was great!!!

Disliked Cost for non electric grass slightly dear.

From the manager: Thanks for your lovely feedback! We're glad you enjoyed the flat pitches, facilities, and hot showers — and it’s great to hear you had fun at the Elvis event! We appreciate your note on pricing and will keep it in mind. Hope to welcome you back again soon!

Trisha C.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked Toilets were amazing, best I've used in a decade in over 20 countries.
Dog wash was available too.
Was an an interesting site, people were friendly, it's sited on a canal and lots of moored boats to see. I paddled board there, just a 5 minute walk to the launch.
There are a great variety of groups on in the cafe/restaurant on Saturdays during the summer, that adds to the free entertainment, which finishes at a decent time.
The food was quickly delivered to my table, compliments to the chefs/cooks great lasagne and breakfast, the sausage was amazing, the staff were all friendly.
Will definitely be back with friends.
Thanks for a great weekend

From the manager: Thank you for the lovely review! We're so glad you enjoyed the facilities, food, and canal-side setting — and it's great to hear the dog wash and paddleboard access were a bonus. We’ll pass your kind words on to the team. Looking forward to welcoming you and your friends back soon!

Overall a great site, would go again.

Primitive grass RV campsite

Liked Lovely site, clean, tidy and well maintained. Showers and toilets are modern, clean and well maintained with heating and hot showers in each shower room. Hottest weekend of the year and quite busy but didn’t have to wait to use the facilities. Love music on the Saturday was nice. Activities on offer.

Disliked Only negatives we had really was that the convenience shop wasn’t open a great deal, could’ve done with somewhere to buy some fresh meats, essentials and some ice creams.and we didn’t stay long at the cafe/bar as the wasps were out in force (don’t think they can do much about them!)

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your kind review! We're so glad you enjoyed the clean facilities, live music, and activities—especially during such a busy weekend. Our chandlery/Shop, where you can buy essentials is open from 8am-5pm every day apart from Sundays which is 9am-5pm. As for the wasps, we wish we could control them too! Hope to welcome you back again soon.

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.
